The Outpost Cafe / Re: Slade Redux
« on: May 10, 2009, 04:43:57 PM »
I have been trying to dig out some shots of Slade from the "pit" that is my negative box, with no luck - mislabeled, I guess - they are/were shots taken at Donnington around 1981 that were not from that close to the stage but may be able to enlarge, but to no avail...

I came across several pics of players with Explorers (Mathias Jabs, Ricky Medlocke, Neil Young) I may post in one of Wouter's posts in the guitar section, but not scanned yet, but did find these which are partially relevant to parts of this thread and one with T'bird links which has no relevance... oh well...


Messrs Aldridge, Travers, Thrall & Cowling, crashing and burning at the Hammersmith Odeon...


Mr Glover with an out of character Thunderbird... circa '81 at the Rainbow Theatre with the Bonnet era Rainbow...

Paul Jones is pretty good...

Neil Young and Bob Dylan deserve honorary mentions here for being long time advocates of the harp...

The Outpost Cafe / Re: Remind me NEVER to join Skynyrd!

I was woken to the news... headed to college with the knowledge that the LP came out that day too and that 6 of 12 on board died and not knowing who had died... as prophetic a cover as I have ever seen... I still have that days newspapers... sad but true...
The Rossington Collins Band was scheduled to play London when Allen Collins' partner died - the dates were never rescheduled - I never returned the ticket...
Used to like Blackfoot too... 2 original Skynyrds... Ricky Medlocke has recorded more with Skynyrd than Ronnie, and he was one of the original drummers...

The Outpost Cafe / Re: chimp victim awakes and does not remember the attack

I fully agree with you John...

All the larger primates are exceptionally strong, by comparison to us. It would be no problem for a chimp to rip your arm straight out of it's socket - they have been known to hunt down their own kind and, when caught, tear them to pieces and eat the remains...

They are not cuddly animals... I have handled smaller primates but I would not like to be cornered by a chimp...

Steve Coogan is a bit of a comedy cult hero over here but not on the same level as the Python's...

For goodness sake, Scott... you're a player and a craftsman...!

If she plays well and sounds great, who's gonna see the blemishes in the dark from below stage level... go for a refund and put that towards the refin work, or leave her "as-is", like your NR - is she a "Stinky" or a "Woody"...
Knowotahmean...?

I'm not know for my esthetic sense, mind you...  ;)

This just works for me... I just had a problem with the "hard" edge...


a regular fine tooth saw, a "workmate", a steady hand, and a lot of perspiration, + a little "bricking"...

Already discussed but whatever...

I am sworn to NOT modify to excess any further...  ;D

How about Jack White (my daughter's busy playing my Hohner along to that "army" song, or whatever it is) and Lorretta Lynn (my wife's fave singer)...

Terr and Chris... you can dream...  8)
