How was your time in jail?

Hah! good to speak to you again too Uwe.   :P

The prison system here has been corporatised in much the same way as the US and UK so it shouldn't surprise you to know that certain  inmates have internet privileges.......... I get out in 2.   8)

This is a pic of  Måns Groundstroem from Tasavallan Presidentti. Is that a Burns he is playing? or something different.

Your body can forget heroin addiction one you've come clean for good, but your heart never forgets cocaine addiction. We see that again and again with rock stars who have been off the drug for decades, but in the end it gets them.  :-\

Billy Thorpe would agree with that if he were still alive today.  Wasn't Alvin Lee writing or recording an album with Boz Burell when Boz died?

Other Bass Brands / Fenderbird - Hardcore aged masterpiece
« on: April 04, 2013, 06:02:17 AM »


Sandberg Custom built "Sandbird" Thunderbird style Bass Guitar - Hardcore Aged Masterpiece

.........custom built Sandberg thunderbird style bass. Check out Sandberg website www.sandberg-guitars.com for a look at the magic they can create.

This is the 1st & only of its type in Australia (at the moment) with the Haussel pickup chosen to spec so the bass is close to a vintage Precision bass in tone. Alder Body. Hardcore aged masterpiece means this thing sounds & plays amazingly. Zero fret & string tree on the A string makes the sustain awesome. Modelled after 2 similar (but not identical spec.) basses built for TURBOSTAAT bassist Toby Knopp.

Will courier at buyers expense which will vary on location obviously.

Check out  the other vintage basses I have listed also.

Bid with confidence.

As brilliant as Rolf is, just like Steve Morse spending more time in DP than Blackmore ever did, Rolf has lived most of his life in the UK. Most younger Australians only have a vague idea of who he is at best. People here still think of Kylie as the chick from Neighbors (TV soap opera) who made it big in music. She too has lived more of her life in the UK than in Australia.

I saw Quo 3 times pre 79, all with that great lineup. They never disappointed.

I also saw Alan with the Party boys a couple of times too. To call them "basically a tribute band living off the glories of its members mined with other, previous bands" is quite harsh. Although, I can understand this view coming from someone outside Australia and New Zealand. Some of the bands that are big here are not even known in the US or Europe yet will pull bigger crowds than international acts. Cold Chisel and Skyhooks  comes to mind. The Party Boys did do covers yes, but every member that walked through the revolving door that was the Party boys, was bona fide Australian (or international)  rock royalty. Bias from me maybe, I'm Australian and are friends with three of them. Give them credit for playing a lot of songs that were originally played or written by one or two members when in the originating band.
Party Boys were not just a tribute band or a cover band as such. They did write some of the songs on the self titled album. They were something different to all the other band formula's going around at that time. No Youtube video that I've ever seen does them justice. And man they kicked serious arse live. They were the real deal IMO. Like I said I can understand Uwe's London/LA journo viewpoint but The party boys were not an international band.

In this case I would say Context is everything.
