20 YEAR LIST CONTINUES.....

So driving down to San Diego this past Saturday D and I were listening to 93.9. It's a station that plays nothing but 80's and late 70's hits. As we past the giant boobs parked at San Onofre
we are subjected to the tired, hopeless whines of OMD's "If you leave" song from Pretty In Pink. Every time I hear this song It just reminds me that Hugh's fucked up what could have been one of the best nerd gets hottie endings ever! Blane was such a shit eater and Andie fell for it! OK,OK I'm over it....

Another song that threw itself on the 20 year list for me was "Brass in Pocket" by my much loved Pretenders.
Great song yes but It's one of the reasons why the 20 YEAR LIST was started. I've heard it just one too many times. I was telling D that around 1993 I heard a version of it done by Suede on Rodney's show. If you think the original is sexy you have to hear Brett croon and slither those lyrics over the slowed down haunting rhythm. I heard it only that one time. I've been told it was released on a comp called Rubytracks or something like that. It's out of print of course but the version is out there in interwebz space. Hunt it down!

FOR SALE!! FOR SALE!!

I was blessed with the return of my much loved Fender Twin Reverb.


Its a crazy story that you can read here http://acapella.harmony-central.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2254404
So now I'm selling this beast here.


Its a Fender Dual Showman Reverb. This is a 1968 first year model with aluminum "drip" edge. When I got it I don't think the chassis was ever taken out. This amp looked like it was gigged for a while then put away never to see a stage in years. I bought it off EBay and luckily the seller was relatively close proximity so I went to go pick it up with my good friend Mike. It was then taken to my friends at Future Music and was serviced by the resident tech. It was used in the studio for the recording of two Black Kites tracks. The sound of this head is pure Fender clean tone. The reverb on this one is sooooo nice! Damp cave sounds emmit when you dial in the reverb at 5. Scary and beautiful all at once.I don't need two amps and Im also trying to find another drum kit. Well, I found one but I need the money for it. So if you know anyone who needs an amp let them know. I'd like to do a local pick up thing too because I do not want to ship this thing. It's a pain in the ass >:(
Bye!

HELLO!

It's been a while since I posted. I've been kinda busy with the every day blah. Anyhoo I was telling a friend about an old Porky Pig cartoon called "The Last Dodo". It's one of the funniest cartoons I remember from my childhood. It gave me a reason to post something short,sweet and hilarious!
