  4. Welcome to BC
  5. Well, the bass didn't sell on eBay. Will have to try again another time, I guess.
  6. Nice to meet you
  7. Nice to know you
  8. [quote name='KingBollock' timestamp='1342709170' post='1739733'] It's not actually a Stetson. It looks more Australian in design, but it was the biggest leather hat I could find. [/quote] I like it! Nice photo, too. You look cool
  9. [quote name='KingBollock' timestamp='1342708309' post='1739715'] I finally had to make myself a hat stretcher to get a leather Stetson to fit me. [/quote] oooooo..... leather Stetson.... nice
  10. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1342694490' post='1739364'] Time likes to make you look like your head's on upside down. [/quote] I bet a lot of those guys are wearing hair extensions to make them appear as if they have more hair than they really do
  11. Your story was an interesting read. Glad you are leading a happy and productive life. Always nice to hear these things!

  13. [quote name='RhysP' timestamp='1342277342' post='1732699'] The ousting of Jon Anderson while he was seriously ill put me right off them as well to be honest. The band, and Squire in particular, lost any respect I had for them with the way they treated him. [/quote] I agree with you. I'm more drawn to the older YES albums, like Close To The Edge and Relayer. Don't even get me started on Chris Squire....
  14. Hi, Chris, I won't be of much help since I'm only learning, but just wanted to welcome you to BC.
  15. Hi, Julien I have a music producer friend who lives in France in Lorgues. Are you anywhere near there? The reason I ask is that he has a 2nd CD coming out from his band, but I know his bass player lives in Italy, so he might be interested in someone who lives closer. The band is MultiFuse. My husband (bass player) played the bass on their first CD. Cheers.
  16. Hello, Eljay, from another American, but I'm on the correct side of the pond. I was an eastcoast USA girl. Glad you enjoyed your time in England. Cheers
  17. [quote name='flyfisher' timestamp='1342451902' post='1735274'] Now you're talking, though sadly I've only seen him once, a long time ago at the Hammersmith Odeon. [/quote] It's great that you got to see him, though. In the old days he was known to do trampoline stuff and acrobatics on stage during performances. lol A lot of people don't realize he used to play with Neil Young's group, which he joined when he was a teenager. He played the piano and guitar on "After the Gold Rush". Since he grew up in my home state of Maryland, local radio made sure to play his music when he formed the band Grin. He's not only a good musician, but a great guy, too, from what I hear others say who've worked with him.
  18. Save the bass, buy my car. lol If anyone has friends on the eastcoast of America who are into classic muscle cars and considering buying one as a project, please let me know. Then Tom won't sell his bass.
  19. I have no clue about whether it's inherited or not; however, musicians were dominant in both sides of my family. Most of my dad's relatives played instruments, my dad played (or tried to) the ukelele. All my brothers played instruments. My mom's side also did (all my cousins and their father). In fact, my mom's brother used to play trombone in a band down on Bourbon Street in New Orleans. Went there to see him. Now my nephew's in a popular band that just finished touring all over the USA.
  20. [quote name='Clarky' timestamp='1342308775' post='1733194'] The first album (KIck Inside) is very inventive and 'The Man WIth The Child In his Eyes' is always a goose-pimple inducing song for me. [/quote] I play that one on regular guitar in order to sing it. Always loved that song, too. I never knew much about Kate Bush until I came over here, but really love her music. When she paired up with Peter Gabriel for "Don't Give Up", it had me all misty-eyed. That's still one of my favourite songs ever.
  21. I'd probably only go to a Springsteen concert to watch Nils Lofgren play. There are only a few songs of Bruce's that I like. Would be much better to just wait until Nils Lofgren tours on his own. I remember when Nils played at our local high schools. Any American gigging over here should take the time to know the laws.
  22. Nice to meet you
  23. Welcome aboard. Nice video
  24. [quote name='Bass-Thing' timestamp='1341999225' post='1727583'] He can make it UK only, for collection only and do a buy it now or best offer price. Having done a bit of research, I think he should put it on for £3000 and see what offers come in. The trouble is generally that nobody has any money at the moment. [/quote] He listed his last one as Collection Only and still people ignored those words and were only interested in it getting shipped. I hear you about the money situation Thanks for doing the research, though, that was very thoughtful of you! He'll be happy to know you recommended £3000 Worth a try, eh? I'm still hoping my car sells soon in the USA so he won't have to lose the Musicman. There's someone who wants the vehicle but has to sell their own truck first. I'd secretly buy Tom's bass to hold it for him, but I think he'd notice the money missing from our bank account.
