Bassassin Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 [quote name='ubit' timestamp='1427190052' post='2726810'] Forgive me if I've missed something obvious, but how did everyone know he was American? [/quote] I think it was obvious from both his lack of understanding of common idiomatic British English, and his slightly smarmy passive-aggressive argumentary style.

dadofsix Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Gads, I promised myself that I wouldn't post again on this thread but, I've got to say, I really like what you've done to the place! Quote
Maude Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 I say give the guy a break. So he didn't like Rickenbackers, that doesn't mean he doesn't have other valid opinion. I liked his insistence to add harmonium to everything, that could really add to a bands sound. Quote
