    What do you get if you cross Tolkien with Crazy Horse? A well-read Indian.

    The only American band I've ever felt were 'punk' were the MC5 and New York Dolls, well possibly the Stooges as well... Not that I have anything against the Ramones, but they did a ballad with a string quartet on it, for goodness sake! <ducks>

    Crocus - cult of personality. How many members of Crocus can you name... I suppose Sparks were classified as neofascist on the grounds of Rob Mael's Charlie Chaplin moustache?

    All very different in sound and feel. If I had more one would be an electro acoustic (probably an Epiphone Masterbilt) and maybe a Hofner violin bass. My old Hohner Jazz was OK too.

    There's no Rush...

    Thanks, |I'll factor that into the ever-increasing pile! It seems no two people play the verses exactly the same, so I'll concentrate on being in tune and in time!

    The UK has "God" and "The Prince of Darkness" who trump earthly rulers:-)

    Got an amazing autumn lined up now: Saxon, Black Star Riders, Girlschool Hawkwind 50th anniversary (on my birthday 🙂 ) Phil Campbell and his illegitimate babies Plus my one brother's band, Stonehouse, are going up to Scotland to play at my other brother's wife's 60th.

    Is it only me who feels slightly uncomfortable about the Warwick top horn? 😈

    Oh no! Not the total perspective vortex....

    One of my brothers was Angus in a band that had the iterations TNT and High Voltage (originality of names is not a strong suite for AC/DC tributes...) Sadly I don't have a pic of him in uniform.

    Didn't you just love it when R1 DJ's had to introduce music they hated 🙂

    UFO are everything Def Leppard should have been.

    When I saw the Bootleg Beatles it was far nearer to the Beatles than now is to the Bootleg Beatles...

    No! NO! Not the Comfy Chair!

    Interesting comments folks 🙂

    A lot of carefully argued points of view. But the UK has Hawkwind. 😎

    Froma distant shot I think it was Steve Morse - right build, hair, blue strat...

    There's a useful and level headed history of how the use of the slang term has evolved on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snowflake_(slang) Clearly different people use it in different ways. It's a young term and it its meaning is not stable.

    Despite being a veggie, I salvaged some big sheets of leather of about that colour from a pair of sofas. I've just realised I can use them to make broad under-straps. Adding one to my genuine Ace peace and dove strap will give me the authentic Neil Young effect (just add a Gold Top LP and paint black...)

    My brother might say so... he's a big fan of symphonic-thrash-death-scandi-folk-metal.

    The Transisters? I'll get my coat...

    I suspect most of us have a cort-made bass or three, perhaps even without realising it. The serial number on the pickup in my Squier Jag comes up as being Cort, and I understand both my Hohners were made by them, and possibly my Ibanez '335' as well!
