If I could PM BP I'd ask....

[bovinehost]

The official term for us is "Forumites", although I still can't remember if those are the ones that hang from the top of the cave or the ones on the cave floor.

"Knuckleheads" is BP's term of endearment.....wait, maybe it's something else.

Hey! You boneheads ease up on whacking each other. It's all in jest.

Sorry...I'm already over it. I have no time for grudges. Too much of a hippy for that.

Since I am the Henry Kissinger of Bass, let me try this.

1. "Please 'splain exactly how/why a manufacturer can/should have ANY control WHATSOEVER over store employees. You want to complain, complain to GC, not EBMM."

Here's my optional restatement: "We've been through this before and BP is pals with the head honcho at GC. Both lovely gentlemen are aware, but the ball is in GC's court now."

2. "Leave the poor man alone and let him get about his business, which is designing and manufacturing killer instruments, not listening to people whinge about Guitar Center employees."

Optional restatement: None.

See? There are ways to say "We talked about this a while back" without sounding like the bitter old schoolmarm.

I woukld ask bp if he could manufacture millions of off cut ernie balls... to give to all of us who are sick to death of these religious zealots in the middle east (ALL sides) fighting each other... so we can whack them into order.

Think of it BP... CEO of Ernie Ball, Sterling Ball, possible saviour of human kind...

That, or if EB could build my custom monkey bass!!!

I don't have any quick questions I would ask BP but I would love to have a sit down and hear all about being the CEO for an awesome company. i could listen to hours of stories about his experiences, his dad and electric guitar history in general. I can talk gear for hours and not get bored.

I personally would PM him for his stuffed veal chop recipe. Those things looked good!!

[Psycho Ward]

Hey, Hey!!! All I wanted to know was if BP got a book I sent him, that's all. I got Phatty, BP and me a signed copy of Wayne C. Henderson's "Building Clapton's Guitar" book. Phatty had got his so I was wonder'n.

I wish I had chosen a different title.

I could never rest my feet on you. That is too lowly a place but you can be a tall lamp.

Tell Jack to give you Bob N.'s # - Jack just raves about his cooking (and he is a standup enough guy that he just might give the recipies ) - and no PMing involved.

 

[Steve Dude Barr]

I just happen to be listening to Bob N's new solo CD "Deposition" at the moment...how freaky is that??

Should have just sent a PM.

 

[Bass-sic]

I'd PM Bp, to say how sorry I am that I PM'd him....and maybe ask him for some more recipes.

 

[Psycho Ward]

I PMed BP once to thank him personally, from the heart, some mushy stuff, too personel for public viewing, I mean I was drunk, naked and with tears in my eyes, A thank you for the open house. The coolest event I ever attended, and I've attended several cool events. I just wanted to say thanks to the man!

He answered me back and that's one PM I'll never delete. These were words that I'll never forget, words that changed my life and that I live by every day. I'll never forget these words... "You're a cool guy"... no that's not it.... I fogot.... sorry

Something like... "You're a cool guy and you're Cooler than Jack even!... but he has that eye lid thing..."



Anyway... I love this place and the bass guitars they make...

 

[RockinRayDuke]

I think I'd ask him, "didya take care of that thing?"
