  1. I always struggled with why Fogerty didnā€™t simply work out the last fantasy contract and move on. He wasnā€™t the only artist hamstrung by those type of contracts that were willingly signed by young naive artists.
  2. I have no idea if Tebow will play. But you can bet your ass ticket sales went up.
  3. Man didnā€™t get to the top of the food chain because he was physically superior.
  4. In my early years I worked in an environment that had more than its share of so called tough guys. The standing bet was grab a squirrel off the ground and hold it for 10 seconds. You do that, and Iā€™ll remember your fucking name. no one ever collected that money.
  5. Do you hear anyone tuning a banjo?
  6. With some of these stories Iā€™m starting to wonder if I really received the injections. Other than soreness at the injection site, nothing. Same with the extended family. No one had any reaction.
  7. Really? You lost the talent argument so you conveniently moved the goal posts? Cā€™mon, do better.
  8. I used the word legendary. Dale was doing this shit in the 50ā€™s.
  9. The guy is legendary for playing the heaviest strings available. Which are not really strings in the normal definition.. more like different gauges of electrical wire. Your hands pay a price to get that sound.
  10. Well Josh is finished, so we will have to wait and see what direction it goes.
  11. Itā€™s nice equipment regardless. As I am a bit of a tinker myself, and wouldnā€™t hesitate to take something apart. I was simply curious if someone stumbled upon something I should know about.
  12. Along those same lines. I play with some guys that can beat me with their clubs, and they can also beat me using my clubs. These guys ainā€™t proā€™s, just really good club level players. It ainā€™t the fucking clubs unless you are an advanced player. Or were gifted with natural consistent swing talent and can hit a tour blade in the same spot time after time. It donā€™t mean shit what sticks you have if you hit everything off of the toe. Otherwise save your money and play whatever you got. Oh, and buy more beer at the turn. Have fun, play ready golf, and no youā€™re not making the champions tour.
  13. Iā€™m partial to Rutger Hauerā€™s ā€œTearsā€ at the end of Bladerunner. The line about starships burning off of the shoulder of Orion has always stayed with me.
  14. Help me out with this one. Iā€™m sure Iā€™m overlooking something. The previous owner removed the power from the combo to basically have a speaker box, correct? That is really expensive gear, why would you want to do that?
  15. I didnā€™t get any paperwork with it, but the best I can tell it is a CR60 Crush Pro 60 watt combo? First impressions were how sturdy the shell is. Pretty robust for housing solid state. I would guess roughly 20lbs lighter than my 1x12 Mesa Lonestar. The controls are simple enough. Main toggle selects dirty/clean mode. Though the dirty is what I call crunch. And to its credit it does a nice job of mimicking a overdriven tube amp. You can also set everything flat in the clean mode and you get a pretty warm George Benson sort of thing. Overall I like it. It was a impulse purchase. But after spending 8 hours with it, it does its job very well. it isnā€™t as good as a comparable tube, but it also doesnā€™t cost 5x as much.
  16. I just got this at a scratch and dent sale at guitar center for $400. I donā€™t see shit wrong with it, but I didnā€™t get the case Candy stuff. As I am a M&M guy (Marshall and Mesa exclusively) I donā€™t often wonder from those two. But when I do it is usually for something I probably shouldnā€™t have purchased. But, I like this thing.
  17. When I think of a blue water navy....well, I donā€™t think of Indonesia.
  18. I was thinking what it could possibly become. If it is nitro, and they didnā€™t put it on 20 mils thick. It should eventually develop a nice patina.
  19. I have been looking at this since you posted it. It has really grown on me. I wonder if it is nitro or a polymer clear coat?
  20. That sounds like a friend who has a hook up and doesnā€™t want your ass over there.
  21. I had to read that twice. But damn, that was a brilliant example
  22. Interesting enough is they are both pretty damn good musicians as well.
