Gibson Basses / Swedish Bird Sighting
« on: January 18, 2008, 05:56:54 PM »
Mark's "Kids In America" video got me thinking about the version I saw a couple of years back by a Swedish girl pop duo called Shebang. Then I noticed a video of their cover of Sheena, and the bassist is playing a T-bird.

No idea who he is, or if they even have a regular backing band. Nothing I can find on their website, at least the English pages.

Oh yeah, I'm in love with Marina Ljung (the brunette).

Sorry Mark, our settings prevent embedding flash so I removed all the stuff that doesn't work and left the link.

Nice performance, one of my all-time favorite songs.

But I gotta say, your singer is no Kim Wilde in 1981. ;) Of course Kim Wilde 2008 isn't Kim Wilde 1981 either.  :D

 :-[ Thanks, Daniel, but I can't take credit for the way most of us got to know each other...it really just sort of happened around me.

Thanks, George. We're here for people who want to be here. We have no problem with people hanging elsewhere too if it suits them.

I don't really think the forum depends on me, but over time Uwe and I just sort of became identified with a certain group of friends, and I'm glad we're able to offer a place to gather.

Speaking of cat photos, have you seen http://icanhascheezburger.com/ ? Pages of "lolcats".

I also love the Red Dwarf and Hitch Hikers Guide themes (though HHG was originally radio).

Two of my favorites themes! Red Dwarf isn't well known in the US, but it's one of my favorite series ever. Too bad the only time I read about Craig Charles is when he's in trouble.

It's good to see more familiar names.  :)

I had completely forgotten about that one. What will you be doing for electronics?

Tony, there's only limited size photo uploading directly from your computer to the forum. But you can do it by clicking the Additional Options to the lower left of the posting text box.

Best bet is to get yourself a free Photobucket account and upload your photos there. Each photo will have an IMG URL you can copy and paste directly into your post.

Who came up with these names?

Blame it on the ancient Greeks.

I don't feel old but some situations make you think twice. Like hearing my next door neighbor talk about how he never expected at his age to be raising his grandkids, and finding out he's 14 years younger than I am.  :o

Hi George, glad you found your way here. But how and when did you turn into an old man?  :P

That sort of demolishes the argument that nitro is automatically always thin. Not that I ever believed it. My '59 Melody Maker guitar and '67 Fender Coronado Bass both had thick nitro finishes.

Phil, I noticed the Polish leg researcher's first name was Boguslaw. Maybe an indicator of the quality of his research. It must have been interesting doing the field work. Or should I say legwork. :D

Mark, I knew it had to be an old pic just by the absence of chrome.  ;)
