There's jewelry in that pic?

What happened to her left arm? The skin looks deep fried. Other than that, everything looks pretty tip-top!

Honestly, I didn't notice until I saw you quoted it...

If you look in the background, it looks like she's in a bakery warehouse with bags of flour or something...

She's badass on the piano-

I first knew of her as the boogie woogie piano playing little girl from Twin Peaks.

Exceedingly cool. Fun, to boot.

I built one (from a kit) for my kids. Even my cat Skiddy got into the act once in a while:

Just heard this dude do a Lohengrin here in Amsterdam on friday. It was amazing.

The best vanilla is from Madagascar. Proper pods that leave little black dots everywhere.

Some of the best rosewood comes from Madagascar too. Or used to.

Thanks, you just sent me on an hour of listening to this and other Playing for Change videos. The first one I saw years ago was "Stand By Me", and in my mind it is still the best.

This video is fascinating in viewing the complexities of wildlife. Some may find it mildly disturbing. I don't think of woodpeckers as predating on other birds.

^ gee, thanks.

I guess that qualifies as ....everythng else.

Or, something else, anyway.

OK, vintage music lovers, check out these Ben Hamper radio archives. Hamper is a pretty interesting Michiganian - you can read up on him on Wiki if you are inclined.

His broadcasts come in 3 flavors (that I know of):

1. Early R&B Soul Possession series.

2. Early country/*****tonk/rockabilly Head for the Hills series.

3. Michigan garage rock (eg. early Iggy, Bob Seger and the Heard, long before Night Moves) Smell the Mitten series. Link is to volume I. There are 3 volumes that I know of; search for others if you are inclined.

Enjoy!

Speaking of music... My young, (28) nephew visited for the holidays, and gave me a copy of Mr. Bungle...their California CD. As he knew I liked Captain Beefheart, he figured these guys were naturally influenced by the good Captain. As well as F. Zappa. Maybe so. I'm not so sure. Still trying to wrap my ears, and head, around this bizarre music.

And who can forget Roger Ruskin Spear on the theremin leg?

I can forget that. ;)

This thread is lonely, don't let it be, it's a good thread.

Here's a drumset.

(I thought there was a C&V drums thread somewhere, but landed here after too much looking. It's probably for the best.)

Fun thread! Lots of interesting randomness.

I've been out gardening this weekend. Got my furrows dug and a trellis built over some tomatoes and peppers I planted today. The rest of the crop (sweet corn, summer squash, cucumbers, and okra) were all planted by seed 15 days ago and sprouting well. Working with about 600 square feet this season.

Very nice. Those collectors are morons, Onkyo was always great stuff, period, sheesh! :crash:

This weekend's audio activity, decidedly non-bike.

I've been keeping up vintage stereo gear for years, records too. Mostly Yamaha gear. Also have some Pioneer gear laying around. Have a system in the living-room and a TT connected to a PC for digitizing my albums. KB

Got out in the woods just in time to catch the tail end of Morel season.
