Nice work. If it were a production model instrument I bet it'd be a good seller too.

Anyone who can stare down Klaus Kinski must be a badass.
Klaus was a real character. I didn't realize he was such a nutjob in real life too until recently.
Maybe this is how Uwe has so much success in the court? He just summons up the demeanor of Kinski and scares the jury shitless.

« on: February 10, 2023, 02:11:36 PM »Wow. Never heard of that band or her. A real gap in my CD collection - immediately rectified by making Herr Bezos some more money.
Danke for the inspiration!
So you must not have seen Death Proof either? Kurt Russell is a real son of a bitch in that one. Definitely also worth checking out. Awesome car scenes.

Tommy Caldwell was better with one thumb than most bass players were with two fingers.

« on: January 24, 2023, 02:04:54 PM »That brunette in the Elvis Presley video looks like Yvonne Craig who played Batgirl and the Orion slave girl in a Star Trek episode. After seeing that Elvis movie years ago, I'm just now noticing. Later in life, he regretted making those meaningless movies, but they definitely had more than their share of pretty girls. However, I've learned something today, and I'm a little surprised at it, too. I'm still not completely sure that's Yvonne Craig, though.
It is. There's something called the internet movie database with all kinds of interesting info. Check it out.

We can see that one Uwe. Shame about Jeff. I thought Bacterial meningitis was something only college kids had to worry about.

Interestingly, the 3 point bridge provides one example of where putting lube on your driver to do some screwing in a tight spot doesn't make the whole ordeal any less of a pain in the ass.

Nice Frosty blue bass just in time for the frosty winter. Hey did you know Light blue (Goluboi) is a Russian slang term for homosexual? I still like frost blue either way. Congrats!

And here's a slightly more mature woman playing with Dragonforce. No idea if she had a pushy Dad. Anyone here know what LP shaped bass that is?

That double bass had me thinking Overkill from the get go. Newstead got a chance to play some interesting lines. Nothing sticking out bass wise on this new one sadly.
