The Outpost Cafe / Death
« on: December 26, 2013, 10:02:15 AM »
I just saw this documentary about this band called Death. They were one of, if not the first, Punk band started in 1971. They were three African American brothers who lived in Detroit. They became a cult classic 20 years later. Pretty cool, but sad documentary about a person (David Hackney) who refused to compromise. They have finally got their recognition 35 years later. Unfortunately David, who was the visionary /guitarist of the band never got top see their recognition.

Nice bass work, he used a Ric

I have an old Road 220 amplifier head and was wondering what it is worth ?

It's in working condition but had a fair amount of wear on it.

Pretty comical love the drummer

The Outpost Cafe / Thanks to all

I just wanted to say thank you to Uwe and Dave for making this place possible. You know this place is not free to run right?

It has been a refuge and support group for everyone here, old friends, I would actually trust (except Mr Huff).
We have a history together, many of us with different views on things, but we all tend to get along.

I don't remember a thread of thanks for everyone that runs this ship. Also allowing us to coexist, there has been very few banned members as well as little drama here.

How long has it been for this site?

Also I am glad to see some old friends come aboard, like Aussie Mark, Granny Gremlin, Hornise, slink, pekka and Daniel resurfacing from time to time. Also it has been great to make some new friends along the way.

Thanks again- group hug!

The Outpost Cafe / Changes

I just thought I would give you guys an update on whats been going on.

I kind of have gone through a mid-life crisis. My dog un-expectedly had cancer and we had to put him to sleep. We were with him to the end. Had to be the worst experience I have been through. It left a huge hole in me. Other dog owners say the only way to get over it is get either get another dog or never get another dog. I have never experienced a darkness like this that was cast on me. My dog was always with me at home, so I could not even go out in the yard without being reminded of him. When I walked our other dog people kept asking where the other dog was. It was horrible. So we decided to adopt a rescue Basenji (which were advised by many not to do).

We adopted a 3 year old male moose of a basenji, who took a month to straighten out (a month of hell), but has turned out to be the best dog we ever owned.

Next our my company which has been struggling for the last four years, was unable to continue to pay my partner and myself, so I left to find employment. I tried switching professions, which got me a few interviews, but no jobs, so I got employed full time back in my profession. The company has been great to me, this will be my second month of employment. It has been a great challenge after being on my own for 20 years to be working for someone else, but I am adapting well. They even gave me an undeserved Christmas bonus and am getting the holiday off paid!
The grass is greener on the other side and I wished I had left long ago, when I knew where we were headed. I discovered how much age and being and working at (self employed) one place for 20 years was a huge detriment.

So now at work I am expected to work, so that is why I am not around much more.

I have a lot to be grateful for. Happy Holidays

A man in Utah couldn't stop looking at these weird goats, so he did the obvious thing: he started dressing like one and frolicking with a goat herd through the Utah wilderness. But what seems like a strange obsession could soon have real and dangerous consequences – goat hunting season starts in September.

Be careful of the goats George.
