Steve Haynie Posted June 29, 2014 Posted June 29, 2014 Who wants to help fund to send the guitar to Kevin to use on July 4th at the Hyde Park show on the bill with Black Sabbath and Motorhead? Do we assume this just ain't happenin'? Quote
BTMN Posted June 29, 2014 Author Posted June 29, 2014 Right. No reply from PM to Kev kind of set the tone. Wish it had happened but........ Quote
tomteriffic Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 It's alive and well and residing in Dayton OH, after its East coast sojourn. Boy, it was waaay overdue for a string change. Tell ya what, Bil, certainly made this one his own. Preliminary pix later, probably today. 5 Quote

veatch Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 I have a gig on the 25th, assuming the brothers make it home in time. If the stars align, it could be a good time for the special (and me) 1 Quote
tomteriffic Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 It'll be out the door the Monday after my gig, Jef. It should make it there easily. 2 Quote
BTMN Posted July 11, 2014 Author Posted July 11, 2014 You fellas ought to just meet up on 75 somewhere and have lunch or something like that. Quote
tomteriffic Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Hmmm, it'd be a weekday and four hours driving at the very least. Could be done unless work actually makes me work. Anyway...... Heya, Cuzzin Bill, Come on in! Kick off yer shoes Relax, you're among friends and family. I've got one Sustain Block but it's a Sunburst. They'll probably get acquainted soon enough, but I wanted to keep it as close a family as possible for openers. Rehearsal photos in a few days, and I'm still looking for a decent black background to lay out the swag so far. 2 Quote
BTMN Posted July 11, 2014 Author Posted July 11, 2014 Back of a black shirt or a solid color towel works as well as anything. Nice gathering. Quote
tomteriffic Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 (edited) I was trying to work out a way to give them all big summer-size drink glasses, but I couldn't get the height right. I'll try a Hamer jacket or T-shirt for a background. Now, about the swag pile... I was particularly pleased to see a schedule for the Ashville, NC Tourists Single A baseball team. So I tossed in a set of our Single A Dayton Dragons' baseball cards. Oh, and DavidB put a bunch of download code cards for Spank's newest album (?) I haven't used mine yet but plan to. The first album was great! Thanks, Dave! Edited July 11, 2014 by tomteriffic 1 Quote
tomteriffic Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 And while I wasn't looking, Most Esteemed Redhead, who triples as our drummist and Goddess of Shameless Self-promotion came up with this for the gig where the pirate flag will fly: Awesome. 6 Quote

Hamer Dave Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 (edited) I have a gig on the 25th, assuming the brothers make it home in time. If the stars align, it could be a good time for the special (and me) Just gigged this past Saturday in Deerfield, Illinois. Did my guitar stuff early in the set. Could have used the Wyld Pyrate. Say 'hi' to Brittany. Edited July 15, 2014 by Hamer Dave 2 Quote
BTMN Posted July 15, 2014 Author Posted July 15, 2014 It is headed Chicago way soon enough. Don't rush. Quote
Steve Haynie Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 That girl can sing!The band is good, too. 1 Quote
tomteriffic Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 It came out to the gig with us and got used on a couple of songs, an original and KWS's Blue on Black. A few observations: I'd have played it a bunch more if it 1) had had 9's on it 2) didn't have such a seriously, seriously skinny neck. As in narrow. I have small hands and don't mind skinny necks, but the Pirate #5 is the smallest neck I've ever met up with. OTOH, it's got attitude for days and what appears to be an old DiMarzio Super Distortion has a great, great tone. A friend shot a bit of video and hopefully I'll get it soon enough to be worth posting. In the meantime there's this. I was trying to do a gnarly face to match the guitar and my shirt, but it mostly came out looking like I was in some sort of gastric distress. The PA speaker proves that it was gigged, though. 6 Quote
