The Last Bass Outpost

uwe, i saw rory gallagher open for your beloved quo somewhere back in the mid seventies. your team should have stayed in the locker room. have not been around here in awhile but i want to thank you again for being such a kind host to my stepsons when they were in germany a few years back.

i recently read that for a ten year period in the early 1900's, a bengal tiger in india managed to kill and eat 436 people. finally the brits sent in a hunter to stop it. easy choice for the cat. chase prey in the scorching heat or grab a villager without breaking a sweat.

greta van fleet. had to look 'em up. a bunch of really short guys living the dream. a really dad dream but i digress. there is only so much you can do within a standard guitar based group, and its been done to death. no surprises there. keep looking.

short piece at 1:25 in.

pretentious twaddle. 

hi dave. I hope everyone is well. I want to apologize to anyone I pissed off or upset when I was posting regularly. stuff was going on that I was not handling well at all. I also want to re thank? uwe for taking my stepsons to dinner when they were in Germany a few years back. thank you.

anyway, I have been listening to my granddaughters 8th grade orchestra. more to the point the double basses tuning up. they create an awesome drone that could easily be the intro to a pink Floyd song.

see ya'.

it just dawned on me this sounds like some 12 step program. i asure you it is not.

i agree. i like them. honest music without the old man rocker pretense factor. little kids bringing the rough and ready sixties in a good way.

you give trump too much credit for knowing anything about anything.

hampton was the best musical entity to ever come out of this sad town. saw him perform many times over the last forty years and followed his career closly.
