Phil W Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Cheers mate, I'm fine. I'm just online for a while as I'm busy doing some spreadsheets for work while at home in the evening and it's a pleasant distraction from the work stuff! Enjoy the forum, it's a cool place! http://philwbass.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MongoN1 Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Dude - you are a great player! I was in London the summer of 1980 traveling with a choral group. It was freezing cold, but really cool. It is hot here in Miami, like way too hot. Anyway Peace Out.... and Best regards.

JBFLA Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Hey Mongo, Nice to see another S.Floridian here. How's the BIZ in the Miami/Dade area? We had a slow off-season up here in West Palm, but the snowbirds are on their way back down, and the clubs/parties should pick up. Welcome!

jlrush Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Yep, welcome Mongo, and hang around for awhile. There's alot of cool and knowledgable people that frequent this forum.

MongoN1 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Jim - Summer is slow and the pay is low. But the playing is fun as Im sure you know. I have been working on songs in my studio and did a cool live radio performance with my band "Friar Tuck" on WLRNs Michael Stock Acoustic show a few weeks back. Check out my site and come out to a gig. Let me know where you are playing so i can come see you as well. Nice to meet a fellow player in the TRI County Area.

LuvMusic Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Well, after almost 30 years away from playing (it's amazing what a career, marriage and kids can do to your free time) I picked up a bass to rediscover a piece of me that has been missing for a long time. Nothing super special....a Squier Vintage 70's bass and a Crate BT50. Just enough I hope to recapture the enjoyment of playing bass. Looking forward to catching-up up on wht's happening using this forum. "Do not take counsel of your fears." General "Stonewall" Jackson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil W Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Mongo! I loved your site! That was fun. Especially the Shmaky! And the drumbers! We were born the same year too - nice one! http://philwbass.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MongoN1 Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 Cool Phil- I'm glad you enjoyed it. I probablly need to put some stuff there that shows off the more over the top side of my playing, but when you get to be our age you appreciate the simple stuff more. At least I do. As far as the drumbers go - all I can say is they must all come from the same part of the gene pool. nudge, nudge, say no more.

Chad Thorne Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Belatedly: http://www.myspace.com/cft3 tells you all about me. Let me also take this opportunity to post the only pic I have so far of myself playing bass, taken just the other night: http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c32/cft3/KennebecBrewPub913.07.jpg I feel compelled to add that those jeans are a whole lot baggier than what I actually need!

Chad Thorne Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 South Florida Bass Dude here. Playing gigs and getting down in the Deep South. Funk, Jazz, Hep Hop, Latin grooves, we got it all. Just thought i would introduce myself. I love to talk gear and have amps bass guitars for any need. Peace to all practitioners of bass. Great avatar! "Mongo just pawn in game of life..."

Kramer Ferrington III. Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Chad: You're playing a lefty bass, but there's two righty basses against the back wall. Do you play them all or is there another bass player in your band? Band MySpace My snazzy t-shirt empire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you play them all or is there another bass player in your band? That picture was taken at a jam at a local pub. The P-Bass hanging on the wall is decoration (a waste!) and the other one belongs to another bassist who was there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottomgottem Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Tom from Colonial Heights Virginia here. Just signed up. Hi, Tom! My whole trick is to keep the tune well out in front.

Bottomgottem Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Chad - Did you know that Chuck Norris is the only human alive who is tough enough to slam a revolving door? Mongo...... Yup. Also, Chuck Norris doesn't read books; he stares them down until he gets the information he wants. Chuck Norris once spent a night in a convent. Exactly nine months later, all the nuns gave birth to baby boys. Those boys grew up to be the '72 Dolphins. *[the '72 Dolphins are the only undefeated team in NFL history] My whole trick is to keep the tune well out in front.

Chad Thorne Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Welcome, Tom from Colonial Heights! Before he goes to bed at night the boogeyman checks his closet for Chuck Norris. We joke about CN (and the info is that he enjoys it), but he has accomplished some remarkable achievements in his life beyond just being in phenomenal physical condition at SIXTY-SEVEN years of age. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chuck_Norris I really admire him...
