   Aww...and I really dig "Do-Wacka-Do", and "Chug-A-Lug", and "Dang Me", and   
   "I've Been A Long Time Leavin' ", and "You Can't Roller Skate in A Buffalo   
   Herd", to name a 'few'...when country was cool ;)

   I got mine used from a used gear Music store where I was reunited with my   
   Soulmate after over 30 years, and I've used it to demo my first 3   
   albums...works okay.   
      
   > It's big and heavy alright.   
      
   I turned one of those down to get my Fostex MR-8 instead.

   It happens  sometimes.

   Just a younger version of the  older set because that's how they started   
   out...only back then the Music was WAAAAAAAAY Better!!!

   Not all that much of a joke - it's a Tragedy...but I'm not into Boring so   
   I'll stay with the  creative, innovative path!   
      
   > There does seem to be a lot of stupidity on display of late, isn't there ?   
      
   More and more all the  time, what a Tragedy!   
      
   > We are in bad need of a band discussion re: volume ourselves.   
      
   Too loud and it kills the Vibe.   
      
   > I just watched from the sideline. Not may band, not really my business.   
      
   And listened too ? ;)   
   How was it?   
      
   > Yep. No point jumping on a sinking ship.   
      
   That's a creepy way of looking at it ;)   
      
   > They do.   
      
   Well then might as well check it  out. Looking at their site may not be the   
   most effective way of learning about them but it's certainly convenient ;)
