The Last Bass Outpost

This is just a detail in all that great work, but this was the first time I ever heard this: "Early basses had flatwound strings and damping under the chrome cap, for a short, dry double bass sound. Soon players removed that damping and in the 1970s Rotosound came out with the first roundwound strings."

I knew early electric bass strings were primarily flats, but I had never heard that rounds weren't even available until the early 70s. I've always preferred flats, but I started playing the electric in 1967 and there were flats on my '63 P-bass when I got it. 

"Exstabdaed"

Is that defined as "stabbing your ex?"

Yes there is one virus scan which thinks we are affected. We fight it for over ten years now. We get in touch, they check it, they say there's nothing wrong... ....and they still block it. Drives me insane. Maybe try it on your phone, tablet or other computer.

Weird. I've tried it in three browsers, and those which don't flag it as virus say the page cannot be reached.

Cutting onions and capsicums out your diet can work wonders.

On a semi-related note, my new avatar is a jackstone urolith!

Try saw palmetto for that urolith thing.

Thanks, Dave. 

I blame the IRS.

So I guess now the conspiracy theorists are going to claim that Biden and Taylor Swift fixed the Super Bowl.

That would be good. It will give them something to put time into instead of focusing on screwing up the country.

Wow! That is different!  Very cool.

Cool group. Who's going with me to the Ladybird reunion tour? Should be a knee slapping good time! 

In my mind's eye, I see what you did there.....
