  1. I know this is a joke, but you probably know they did at one point make some of the best there ever were.
  2. Yes, but Jimi created it as basically an on the spot improvisation. SRV had a loooong time to listen, consider, and improve.
  3. The one thing I'm very disappointed with Joe for is he told us he was only going to serve one term. Then he changed his mind. That effectively robbed the Dem party of a legitimate primary to get younger blood on the ballot. But that's spilled milk now.
  4. Have we talked about this yet? https://www.mediaite.com/tv/biden-appears-to-forget-name-of-black-man-defense-secretary-lloyd-austin-in-bet-interview/ This has to be it, right?
  5. I still have all those magazines. I keep telling myself I need to take them down to Half Priced because I can get all the songs tabbed out in them on my phone. Yet… Luckily they’re tucked into a secluded corner of the hizzy where Mrs. F seldom wanders.
  6. They’ve been doing that for a while. It’s like they only make guitars for the 1% now.
  7. I wonder how much it costs to operate an M60 vs an M1? I also wonder what the spare parts supply is for M60s? In any case an interesting idea.
  8. Who knew we could've just kept a bunch of M47s and M48s and sent them up as even matches against the Ruskies in Ukraine, instead of parking them in front of Army base gates around the world? Lavrov can suck a big fat dick, btw.
  9. Like an 1860s boss! The rim gives it a touch of class though.
  10. Well son, there are a lot more Chinamen than there are Ruskies (spits chaw). Especially these days.
  11. https://y.yarn.co/9bdb615e-782a-4242-b5fa-b6f4dd92ed5b_text.gif
  12. I believe its this. *Mainly because I choose to believe my own sloppiness is a swaggering "choice."
  13. You see it at airshows all summer long. Not unusual at all in that context. But typically there are people reenacting Russians, Germans, French, British, Americans, etc., etc. and its part of a show where the good guys always win.
  14. The problem is the people of Texas don’t.
  15. The Beatles. There are a lot of seconds. But they're all second. Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones, Wilco, Pixies, Willie, Nirvana. I could go on for days. But in the end, it always comes back to the Beatles for me.
  16. Happened to the brass era cars before as well. Then again… https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/06/automobiles/collectibles/young-collectors-older-classic-cars.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare&sgrp=c-cb
  17. And I wish Vernon’s was closer to me too! But since I only go 6-8 times a year, I don’t sweat it that much.
  18. Vernon’s is my favorite venue to play. Easy load in/out, the restaurant really takes care of the band (decent food/drink allowance, they pay well and on the spot), the crowd is cool/appreciative and it’s just a fun place to be. The only downside is that the stage faces into the sun so for the first couple of hours of the show, it’s hot. Meanwhile the outdoor dining section has shade and fans and is quite nice even on a hot day. So great for the patrons. In June it was 108. I drank three liters of water the first two sets. But then the sun goes down, the breeze comes in off the lake and people start dancing. It’s pretty well perfect then. Last night when I arrived it 89 with cloud cover so really pleasant. As for requests it runs the gamut and that’s the fun part. We had a group of soccer moms who wanted “Don’t Stop Believing,” and a fella who wanted “Take it to the Limit” both of which everyone knows but we had never played together as a band before. But they went off as crowd pleasers. Then someone wanted a Bob Seeger song that had a lot of changes and didn’t really fit the mood, so we wound up settling on a kind of semi Metallica style “Turn the Page” instead. There was some Cody Jenks requests, and some newer country stuff like that which I’ve heard, but not often and certainly have never played before last night. But the folks requesting cheered at the end so all good. That’s really all I need to have happen to consider it a successful night.
  19. Great pics! Where is this? Looks like a fun time!
  20. We do 6:30-10:30 about once a month in the summer. We probably know 8-10 hours of music total pretty well, so we get to switch it up. But my favorite is taking requests and seeing if we can pull them off. Last night about a quarter of the show was requests.
