Jonathon, I'll see your eleven year old and "lower" you by one year. Benyamin Check out the rest of his videos. This kid is scary good for a ten year old.

I love Led Zeppelin. I have a black dog. I named my son Jimmy.
Coincidence? Actually, yes.

OK, let's say you're in a tribute band. Now, let's say that you are invited to play the birthday party of one of the members of the band you pay tribute to. Then let's say your guitarist can't make the gig, so you fly in a guitarist from ANOTHER tribute band. Now, to make it interesting, let's say the birthday boy wants to SIT IN. And let's say that the dude is named Stewart Copeland: Stewart jamming to "Driven to Tears" And what about "Roxanne"? How pissed would you be if you were the guitar player that missed the gig? And how mad would you be if these YouTube videos were attributed to the [i]sub's[/b] band?

I'll see you 10 year old and raise you an 8 year old drummer! Wow that kid on Piano shure was amazing. If I could just get him and this drummer to play music with me life would be much easier.

How many times do you suppose an open E note has been hit on a bass guitar in frustration? Also how many times have people played 1 5 1 5 etc since the 50's? Jonathan

Coffee!I'm having some time off coffee. The last few days (coffee-free)I've been experiencing the odd headaches and hungover feelings. I didn't connect the two. Then this morning I'm in a meeting and a work buddy offers to get me a drink. I asked him to get me a hot chocolate. Anyway the machine was broken so he brought me a coffee, hey no big deal, I didn't want to appear ungrateful, I thanked him and drank the coffee. One sip! After one sip of shoddy machine coffee, my headache disappeared; my vision became clearer; my perception notably changed.  I didn't realise coffee did all that to me, I thought I just liked the taste! That's some potent stuff. I'll be back on the expresso soon enough but that was an intersting learning experience - whoah!

Caffeine withdrawl is a wicked, wicked thing. It took me a good month of drinking caffeine free diet coke instead of espresso and diet coke for the migraines and bipolar swings to abate.

I tend to cycl;e caffeine out but going from coffee to tea to nothingand then start again. This is so I dont ever get a huge addiction and so I dont have to drink 5 cupsto get up in the morning. Interesting thing about caffeine... it makes your body release adrenalin so you can kill your adrenal glands. Not 100% about this lst part, but I think it makes it harder for you body to release adrenalin on its own terms if you become too dependant. They drink coffee in England? I thought that was illegal.

This thread is WAY off TOPIC. In a P.C. kinda way. Nothing to do with squirrel wrestling.

You know, people say they like cheese, or they love cheese, or even don't care for cheese at all (wtf?), but which kind? There's so many kinds of cheese. It's like saying you do or don't like strings. I like string cheese.
