Pleasantly melodic and with a beat plus there is a TBird somewhere in it too ...

We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...

Lots of Gibsons at the Pinkpop festival last weekend.

Like at this performance of Dutch band Navarone.
Their bass player was playing a NR Tbird during the entire set.

Let me guess, the Asian-DNA-looking, Explorer-wielding guitarist listens a lot to a certain Irish band. They came to him in his dreams one night and said: "You too must get a delay, you still haven't found what you're looking for!" And he obliged.  :mrgreen:

Is Tom around?



Can we quick make some comments on Adam Clayton's bass skills while we're at it?

NRs everywhere. James Lomenzo brandishing one in the new Megadeth vid.

Contrary to what James Bond says, a good Gibson should be stirred, not shaken.

Skip to 4:00 and you'll see James Lomenzo rehearsing with the T'bird. Best bass sound I've ever heard in Megadeth.

  For sure on his tone - I love mine, it's a stout, well made and great sound bass - Best Gibson has done for years.

Never ever connected T-birds with The Hollies. So this came as a real surprise. Eric Haydock was the bass player. The bottom got out of the group when he quit, think it was around -66:

I don't need to. Gretsch did that for me, by giving Malcolm the largest guitar they could find  :mrgreen:

Well, the guitar with the smallest body - the SG - was already reserved for his baby brother!

But who says Aussies can't surprise?

That's what he gets for hopping around like an idiot. Still, the 'bird can be repaired.
I'm far more traumatized by the fact that they're playing a U2 cover...
