Oh my. Y'all are awful about getting off-topic.

WN, if it's any consolation, I thought the guitar was cool. :D


I have absolutely no musical ability whatsoever. None. I used to sing in chorus in grade school, but never learned how to read, just got really good at matching tones to what they're supposed to be.

I have been a bass player since 16, and a singer since forever.

That's 30 years of Fretless Bass baby!

No, I just play Neil Young recordings. 8)
My daughter, the soon to be motorcycle endorsed licensed rider, is fantastic on the electric guitar! She refers to Neil Young, affectionately, as "Uncle Neil". (No relation to Mr. Young, just a mutual respect that my daughter and I share.)

I bought Decade, a Neil Young greatest hits compilation triple album in 1977
Wonder if there will be one called Half Century?

I don't know, but "Long May You Run", dude. Just enjoy your scooter ride on the "Twisted Road", man.

No, Pono, meaning righteous in the Hawaiian language.
Also, Neil Young's lossless audio player he calls Pono is supposedly as good as analog. He may never get it sold, but it's an invention nonetheless.

Whoa!! This thread ran wild...outta hand (?) Guess I asked for it (tricky word that instrument is).
okay, moving on....
wolf, you are very talented, Cheers gifted one!
Me, taught myself some guitar as a young teen but enjoyed singing better. Formed a group and did just that. No fancy equipment, mics, amps (tube), drums, bass, lead guitar, organ, lead and harmony singer. Smaller, (here we go) handheld instruments were tambourine, cowbell (yeah, like the Saturday Night Live skit with Christopher Walken..."more cowbell, we need more cowbell") and maracas. I would have bruises from hitting the tambourine so hard. But I LOVED every waking second being in a band. Thank God bands live on. Kept me off the streets (almost) (o: So folks of all ages riding PCX's, I will ask Ye again.....Do you play an instrument? Okay, now or ever? Singing included.

very interesting read here, esp with Alibally telling us about the AR-15. ok, the next question, who all can carry concealed... legally. and, do you on your scooter? if not, where (place, not body location). For example, in my camper and in our house. that's my answer and I'm stickin' too it.

I conceal carry my Walther PPS in the front-right of my jeans, inside the seam. I use an Uncle Mike's neoprene holster, it works great and hides the gun well. Can't be too careful nowadays, especially in the city. It's good to have when camping too, never know when you might run across a bear. o_O
