    Had an incredible "Build Your Own Band" event this weekend....

    Cool I couldn't write a song if my life depended on it! I have the upmost respect for those of you that can do it, even moreso if you did it in a few hours under pressue :eek::baimun:

    Sweat Pouring from my forehead... I got the Shakes!

    Back in my brief band days the drummer who dabbled in everything had a lone star combo amp. It was really nice and we used it most of the time when we jammed. I ended up getting a Transatlantic head primarily because of the Lone Star. HNLSD!

    The Bicycle / Biking Gear Thread

    @Tig Nice That would certainly work as an option. I have also seen some bikes by Public that are similarly priced. They even have one with disc brakes under $600 but it's flat bars and I kind of prefer drop handlebars since that's all I've ridden for almost 60 years :eek:

    Apparently novelty licence plates aren't a thing anymore?

    Well here in Cali, they are supposed to be required but I'm pretty sure about 90% of the Teslas don't have one or even an apparent place to mount one (no sign of where screws would go). :shrug:

    The Bicycle / Biking Gear Thread

    Well just heard from the bike shop and the bad news is confirmed. The place that "could" fix the frame said that the cost of repair would far outweigh the cost of what the frame would be worth. Given the age of the parts etc you would be looking essentially at needing a whole new bike if you got...

    The Bicycle / Biking Gear Thread

    I hope so too and they've been pretty good so far IMO. But it's always difficult to estimate the value of something old but not a collector's item. If it was an old car it would be a bit easier. However they would give you the blue book value and that would be way less than what the car was...

    The Bicycle / Biking Gear Thread

    Not sure what I'm going to do yet, need to see what the bike shop says and what the insurance company will do. This is my old bike from the early 80's that was in the accident with a car when they pulled out in front of me (yes they had a stop sign so complete fault there). At first I only...

    First world problem

    I have a whole house battery, so I would never have a problem getting off the couch. But mine's not a powered recliner so I'll never know

    What's the worst show/concert you have ever been to?

    I also can't think of a headliner that I saw that was bad though sometimes the mix wasn't great particularly in arenas. I have seen few bad opening acts but also some good ones and one that was far better than the headliner (unknown band INXS opening for Men at Work, they were awesome and you...

    Going to a concert alone?

    I've gone to several alone. It's pretty much the only way I can go these days, my wife doesn't care for music concerts and I don't have a lot of friends that I know well enough to invite or that like music enough. And I don't go too often either. But I do miss the pre/post concert banter.

    Backyard Regulars

    We used to feed them here but for the most part you only feed a dominant one and the ones that snuck in when he/she was chasing off another. For little birds they sure are big fighters :catfight:

    Most Played Songs On FM Rock Radio 1970’s

    Paranoid was the first album I bought with paper route money! Dad HATED Iron Man, so naturally we played it constantly at high volume
