Hangin' with T-bone in Portland

[maddog]

having fun.

no pictures forthcoming.

self incrimination is not my thing.

 

[Oldtoe]

Your boring post is going to earn you an erasure on Santa Claus' "nice" list, Tom.

 

[dkassenbrock]

agree with Ben,
unless you have pics from Mississippi Studios (including incrimining evidence), your hang w/ T-Bone (and his lovely wife), ain't happin' -Capt. Don

 

[AnthonyD]

Agree with Ben... And the Cap'n...


No pics, no hanging with T-bone. No surprise here.

 

[SquidLizard]

Very disappointing. Not only because us few females think you guys are HOT, but because any of the males who have met the gorgeous and fascinating Julia might hope for a glimpse of her as well.

Waves -- Hi, Tim & Julia!!

 

[maddog]

There he was walking down the street singing do-wah-diddy-diddy-dum-diddy-do. Oh look, its T-bone. A real man on the street.

Speaking of "purpleen"

Trying out a sterling. This is gonna make Phatty happy.

A real "Crossroads" moment.

We got an EXTENSIVE demo of the Bose system. Another convert might be in the works.

Uh-oh. Road trouble. Where does this go?

Hmmmm, what's this?

Markbass and Bongos. What a combo!

Hey Stanky, I think this'll give your Ampeg rig a run for the money.

A surreal moment with a Stingray.

All the Musicman a person can handle.

Something shiny caught my attention.

"Protecting the identity of the bongo-innocent" OR "I'm not looking, this monster might frighten me."? Your pick.

"You're killing me. J-bone will kill me if I get another bass."

I leave the incriminating ones to Tim.

I see part of that was in Apple Music Tom, where are all the MM basses? Last time I was in Apple they didn't have nearly that many.

 

[maddog]

Pictures prior to the road trouble were in Apple Music. Pictures after are in the Beaverton GC.

Your memory serves you well. The Apple Music MM stock was a bit scant.

 

[AnthonyD]

Ordinarily I am not a fan of - nor an accomplice to - peer pressure.






Glad to partake this time - thanks for the photos - cool stuff!

 

[T-bone]

I feel some sort of response is in order.

Trying out a sterling. This is gonna make Phatty happy.

To heck with Phatty It's gonna make me happy.

I really like this system (dammit). However, when we A/B over at GC with the MB, I think I'll go with the LM II.


Uh-oh. Road trouble. Where does this go?

Hey come on now, that old girl has over 250k miles.


Hmmmm, what's this?

Pay no attention to what he's pulling off the wall.


Something shiny caught my attention.

I think you were looking for some divine inspiration.


"Protecting the identity of the bongo-innocent" OR "I'm not looking, this monster might frighten me."? Your pick.

One thing I did learn is I'm not an HH person.


"You're killing me. J-bone will kill me if I get another bass."

Another thing I learned is I like that blank plank.[/QUOTE]


He forgot to add a few photos though:

Julia couldn't wait to get ahold of his hair.

Really, he's not that cute in person.

I think they're having a little too much fun (note to self, keep an eye on maddog)

Ahhh, the finished product.

And our little group photo.

Thanks for coming up, Tom. See you next month for the street party.

t (and she) bone

 

[SquidLizard]

LOL. Around here I'd say the most incriminating for Tom was the last one. LOL.

 

[maddog]

it was my last clean shirt.

was either that or topless.

you don't want to see that.

J-bone couldn't keep her hands off my moobs but I ain't no BFR.

 

[phatduckk]

the last (only) time i was in Portland i ended up at a bar called Union Jacks. best bar ever...

 

[bovinehost]

Color me jealous.

J-Bone could definitely not do that to MY hair.

Jack

 

[Aussie Mark]

Eric Clapton on bass?

 

[Psycho Ward]

That looks like a fun trip!

 

[Caca de Kick]

That's the most SR5's I think I've ever seen in one GC.
BTW, I've always liked the Beaverton store vs the Clackamas one.

The five GC stores here usually only carry one SR5 in each store, sometimes two (one single H, one dual pickup).

MM's at Apple Music? The last few times I was there I didn't see any. Is that new, or are they just really limited on stocking them?

I'm with you, Caca. I think it's better than South Center and Downtown Seattle too. Still, and you'll hear this from maddog as well, we walked into that store, played numerous MM's through Markbass amps, and not once were we approached by a sales person. Someone finally talked to us when we plugged into the Bose system.

Limited is an understatement. But then again, we're comparing it to GC Beaverton.
