btw...i grew up in high springs (you probably know where that is) and went to UF! Still have family up that way.

Oh yeah, I know High Springs, one of my college buddies lives up there. I went to UF too (Go Gators!). Twice in fact, undergrad and grad. Never left. Some people never grow up.

Btw, I am one of the distinct minority of people who already know that that green LP Special is spearmint.

Oh yeah, Terraplane have been around forever. The side band (that plays roots rock, Hoyt and the HotHeads) is playing Saturday June 9 at a great little Irish bar called the Shamrock. I may be playing bass at that one rather than my usual lead since iirc our basist will be on tour with his other band that night.

My punk rocknroll band is in the midst of (yet another!) drummer search so we don't have anything going on.

Cheers,

BK

No worries, we have a new guy jamming with us at practice Sunday night, and another in the wings. But I'm one of those guys if he doesn't gig in a couple months starts to get antsy. I used to have a weekly church gig that was great, but unfortunately the pastor decided to move on and the people that assumed control went in a direction we didn't like so I'm at a new church and not playing weekly in church any more. Which is too bad, because I'd gotten to the point where I could just come in, run though the one song I'd never played before right before the service, and go. That was fun and fulfilling in a way that playing in bars (as much as I love playing in bars!) could never be.

Fortunately last week an old buddy of mine came into town to play a benefit for a mutual acquaintance of ours, and I got to sit in with his band on bass (on one day-of-show practice!):



That should hold me until my side band plays in June, but just barely.

Welcome Krashpad, it'll be fun having you here. Interesting collection of axes there. What's that odd looking blue one?

Ovation Viper or Breadwinner I think...??

Welcome Krashpad. It's great to have more working players hanging with us.

You are correct sir! Breadwinner. The Viper was a bit more conventional.

Thanks for the welcomes lads.
