discreet

Closest yet. I'd like a 4-string Marathon clone, please.

Actually, no. She's in Seattle.

You leave my nobbly ned stumpy top horn out of this! Blatant invasion of privacy! Mrs discreet is mortified!

Wait, what was that?? I thought for a second someone had posted something...

And yet you expect us to read your voluminous meanderings! It's hardly fair!

Yes. And I say to them: Do you think you'll never get old, you idiots? You are all going to die of old age - if you're lucky!

The word 'Legend' is often inappropriate. Not in this case. RIP.

Genuine LOL. You could also add: Young people AND old blokes are always a whisker away from taking the whole bloody thing way too seriously, given the reality of the situation...

As is peeing on the floor and assuming someone else will clean it up.

How dare you! No, of course not. It was a bottle of sherry.

If 18-year-old me knew what 58-year-old me knows now, I wouldn't have spent forty years in the pub.

Don't let anyone know about your Sanatogen and Deep Heat addictions - before you know it there'll be an embarrassing intervention. And don't leave your wig or teeth lying around - people get very agitated about them for some reason. Good luck!

Do you really want to hang around with a bunch of kids? I can't imagine anything worse! I'm playing better now than I ever have and very much enjoying my latest band, who are the best musicians I've ever played with in 40-odd years. it's true, if you think you're past it then you probably are. I think my finest hour is still ahead of me. Deluded? Possibly. But I'm enjoying every minute - and that's what it's all about.

John made me another P Bass wiring kit. As expected, the usual high quality components and assembly in evidence, along with great comms and timely delivery. Thanks John.

Right that's it, get out!!

No apology necessary. It was a joke about being tired. Who wouldn't be, with four kids?

This makes no sense. Are you tired for some reason??

Tsk! Pah! Far too late to complain about lack of time now. One has to commit either to being a good bass player and keeping one's pants on, OR banging it on the table and rogering anyone within grappling distance at every opportunity. Unfortunately I did neither.

Yes, I'm more of a night person. But now the boy is 16 he stays up later than I do.

To be fair, that's where everything is.

Ew! You weren't playing with GG Allin, were you?

We had a 'Titler'. Twatbangle & Titler. A firm of incompetent music solicitors.

Yes, bands seem to attract real boneheads for some reason. Agghh! Maybe I'm a bonehead!
