Gibson CS NR Thunderbird

[the mojo hobo]

The first time was because I wasn't smart enough to use a stand. The second, third and fourth times was because a guy named Gene Liberty didn't know how to fix it. The fifth time the case was standing on edge when I accdently walked into it, knocking it over. The sixth time I set it down on stage forgetting I still had the wireless transmitter on my belt; it fell into the amp rack putting some nice gouges in addition to the headstock break. The last time it just came apart in the case. I just put it back together tonight.

OK! I am a klutz.

WoW! Poor old thing.


I can say I've fallen over backwards onstage with my purple 'Bird, the back of the headstock clipped part of the drumkit on the way and I thought to myself aww s**t there it goes! Somehow I managed to land on my ass without breaking that bass................

"Somehow I managed to land on my ass without breaking that bass................"

Might have been personal experience in bringing things into position. The bass I mean, what else.

4:1 ... errrm ... 4:1 (+1)! Now for Argentina ...

Argentina?  whaddayuh a Blue Meanie?

[Basvarken]

This is how the Germans win their matches...  

[uwe]

I see nozzing!!!

A perfect non-goal, so obvious.

Uruguay is a nice country, good people live there, some have even German roots.

[Highlander]

There were loadsa flags on cars/trucks/buses/taxis/vans a few days ago...

Pretty much nowhere to be seen on Monday...

A couple of members of the squad were photographed in a nightclub, partying the night away, post match...

That has not gone down well with the English supporters (poor little dears...)

To paraphrase a quote from a British sportswriter years ago, it's not surprising that Germany would defeat Britain at its national game, since Britain defeated Germany at its national game in 1918 and 1945.

[Highlander]

The downed Spitfire is probably unnecessary cruelty...

Dave's reminder of 1918 and 1945 probably meets the same criteria...

It's in our genes, we just can't help blitzing die Engländer ...

Hellcat?

Bit like a Focke-Wulf Geschwader having target practice with a Defiant Squadron.
