I like silly things, the sillier the better.
My jam group plays laGrange and I am hoping a bit more ZZ TOP.
I suggested we need to work on our facial hair, the guys agreed.
Here is the result, beards for all, ready to try in 2 weeks
I will peruse the CLs at motorcycles, am always looking (akin to the folks here who posit that one can never have too many bass guitars, I guess.)
I saw this one this morning with a lot of neat details:
The Thunderstruck Road King…
The “bell” (below the tank) is the horn cover:
Pearl drum pedal for the floorboards and “cassette” brake pedal:
Microphone hand grips:
Guitar neck sissy bar:
Decent airbrushing and what seems to be drum kit hardware (below) for the air cleaner cover:
Rear fender:
I think this is a neat, but a very specific concept bike. Not my style- too flashy.
If I were to do a “music” related bike, it would perhaps be the Entwistle.
It would be very diminutive in appearance, almost unnoticable at a bike show. A Road Glide in all black, but… (as John let his audiences know of his power as a bass player) the bike would have one hellova motor!
Really love a lot of his music, really hate him for what he is.
That said, there are lots of creepos in the music world that have made amazing music and are dispicable as well.
yep. and even a lot of musicians that i think are pretty decent human beings did a lot of stuff in the 70s that they weren’t too proud of later. progress is ugly sometimes.
We had dinner at the home of some Cambodian friends the other night.
We were invited last minute because we are friends and they thought we might like to come, what the party was about was a celebration of a recent fund raising event they had held, it was for the entertainers, but we didn’t really know who they were until the end.
As with a lot of these things there was a lot of alcohol (including high end Scotch) and after the great food and while the drink was flowing came the Karaoke.
Now I realised the singers were good and obviously professional, it took a while to twig that they were singing to their own well produced music videos.
I thought the singer was the same as the one on screen but wasn’t sure (I am a bit face blind).
Eventually one of the girls said that she had never seen someone in person singing to their own song and that they are actually pretty huge in Cambodia.
Eventually I got to meet all the band, except the bass player of course (who they may have left in the car and forgotten about)
The music was very interesting. I was listening to the bass of course and picked reggae, basso nova and other interesting rhythms in it.
