_Sweet Willie_ Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Well, I went to a pretty wicked costume wedding the weekend before Halloween. I found myself hanging out w/ some crazy 70s guy for a quick minute. Peace. --SW spreadluv Fanboy? Why, yes! Nordstrand Pickups and Guitars. Messiaen knew how to parlay the funk.

jeremy c Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 We had three flame wars and four troll attacks. SteveC bought and sold seven basses, four preamps and two speaker cabinets. I played a toga party. Videos were refused by the new corporate youTube. Eight newbies asked what bass or what amp to buy. In other words, nothing new happened. Welcome back, friend!

dhomer Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Congratulations, wish you two well in your new life together.. The home/personal life is kinda going the opposite direction here, but over the past weekend I have joined the band for an up-and-coming country artist..(she has a song on the country top 40).. there is the possibility of a Jay Leno show appearance and an Italian tour..(speaking of visiting Italy..) in negotiations for sponsorship of a US tour as well...The story on how this came about was to me no less than a sign from a higher power.. we shall see what transpires..

getz out Posted November 10, 2006 Author Share Posted November 10, 2006 Thanks everyone. The wedding was fun. A big party in a nice room with a full blown costume theme. How many grooms get to wear a 2-foot afro to their wedding? It was my second trip to Italy... I traveled with my friend Scott last year to Venice, Florence, and Rome. My wife had traveled to Italy about 10 years prior. We romped through Venice, Florence, Radda, and Rome. A good time was had. We drove from Florence to Radda, Radda to Siena and back, and then Radda to Rome. Driving in Italy is not for the faint of heart, especially Rome. If anyone was wondering, a Fiat Punta 1.3 can do 180 kph downhill. Besides the food everywhere, the art everywhere, the historic sites everywhere, and the shopping in Florence, Italy is just like anywhere else. My Italian sucks; I can get by shopping, asking for directions, and ordering a meal, but that is were it ends. For a first generation American and being so exposed to the language, I should be more able. I have to do something about that. I will post the photos soon enough.

I heard Arsenal lost as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
butcherNburn Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Congrats and welcome back. What did you miss from me? Nothing except a bad joke about my shorts... So, when are you going to break it to her that you haven't been working all those extra hours and that you're *gasp* a bass player... Or did she find that out as you were asking the locals for directions to a gear shop? If you think my playing is bad, you should hear me sing!

Flemtone Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Originally posted by getz76: How many grooms get to wear a 2-foot afro to their wedding? um, Billy Preston? Welcome back, Maury! Sorry you missed BPLive, but it was for an acceptable reason. Glad it went as you two had planned! Congratulations to you both. I think you got the better part of the deal, however. Best to Ms. Preston! Play. Just play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveC Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Congratulations! I'd love to go to Italy and eat my way from north to south. For the record, I bought one cab after selling one cab. It's an Eden D210XST to go with my Eden WT-550 head. Sounds pretty sweet, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky McDougall Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Congratulations Maury, Did you go into any old, dusty, music stores and MAYBE find an ancient, beatup, Uprignt Bass for sale cheap.

moot Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Nice going Maury. I wish you guys all the best you can get out of life. When do you plan on being a daddy? I can't help but think that any one of my marriages may have lasted longer had I been on a real honeymoon - or at least one that didn't include lotsa booze and a suite in a casino tower somewhere. Now, how bout them pics? "He is to music what Stevie Wonder is to photography." getz76 I have nothing nice to say so . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Capasso Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Congrats - glad to hear that wedding and honeymoon went well - how could they not?? The "sweet" adjective is now at risk after seeing that look of evil on Willie's face. Must be that tough Manhattan upbringing.... Welcome back!
