FX....suspicious is an understatement. My first thought was that someone you trust is slipping it to you in your food and drink. Do you have a life insurance policy with a big payoff? Dude be careful...

GlitzMan...Today I'm trying to find my wife a car to drive. A couple of saturdays ago she got schmucked from behind waiting at a red light. She was'nt hurt and it's a good thing my kids were'nt with her. Anyways..insurance totaled the car and we're getting back enough to pay off the loan and have a little bit left over to buy something else. It's a lot harder to find something decent when money IS an object...we only have a couple of grand to work with.
As far as the band? We played out last friday night and had a blast. These guys just needed McDave and his TeleBlaster to fill things out nicely. It's been a stressful few weeks. I had to learn about 50 songs between January 17th and February 13th..a little burnt...but I survived !

Sedoy..no need to apologize, I just thought it was cool looking.
And as soon as all of us unemployed get our jobs back, I'll give you the thumbs-up to c'mon over and give it a shot..lol.
Americans are'nt all that bad are we? Well maybe with the exception of certain Coldplay fans..
I had the pleasure of trying one of these a little while back. I WANT ONE ! !

Jelvani.....My guess is it's the Fulltone Ultimate Octave you are hearing. I don't hear the Whammy pedal being used in CRATS..
Austin....I'll be turning 40 in august...so you don't need to feel so old..lol.

DoTheStu....Right now we're only working 40 hours a week. But once spring rolls around we'll be back to 10 hour days..no weekends.
And as far as memorized albums? I would have to say that just about every Pink Floyd album is in my head note for note. Which came in handy a few times when I was asked to play their stuff...more specifically "Comfortably Numb"..."Time"...& "Young Lust"
Michelle....funny that you mentioned dancing. I did a little "back to work happy dance" when I got off the phone with my boss...lol.

So am I the only person who finds it funny that this site has more than 100,000 members, but a troll is able to come here and take the username "Coldplay" because, well, no one else thought it was one worth having? ;-)
DoTheStu...that was awesome..

GlitzMan...Happy birthday !
The family & I are doing fine. I'll be back at work in a few days. My wife and I are starting to look at which veggies we are going to grow in the garden this year. Spring is coming...

CommodoreDrake...I did not realize that starting a paranormal investigation group had so much red tape involved. I figured you could just get some audio/video equipment and go investigate old homes...etc. Have you had any experiences that you would be willing to share? I'm very interested in hearing stories, but not to the point of being a "ghost geek"...lol. Hell..who am I kidding. I'd do it for free if someone let me.

Michelle...best wishes for your 'sis..
Wow..I've never seen a Les Paul with a locking trem. It would be fun to try out but I'd rather have a standard LP for the money they cost.. When I was 18 I had a '60's SG that had an original Floyd Rose installed in it by the previous owner...what an awkward fucker that thing was...

CommodoreDrake....I really enjoy watching Ghost Hunters (TAPS)...because they are trying to debunk stories while at the same time trying to make contact. There is another show out there called Paranormal statewhere the guy has a little box that says "demon" whenever there is supposedly one in the room. I had'nt finished laughing before I changed the channel. I think I'll stick with TAPS..

CommodoreDrake...I hear ya. Maybe I prefer TAPS because I grew up in New England and they do a lot of research in towns that I've lived in or been to. And I agree that they have to keep things exciting for the TV crowd. My favorite episode is when they investigated the Mt. Washington Hotel in New Hampshire. Made the hair on the back of my neck stand straight up..
Ok here is a Joe related question..
Why is the JS 20th Silver Surfer cheaper than the 1000 & 1200?
