Coming up this month (on my birthday BTW) is the 5th anniversary of the death of The Ox. The lead guitarist who happened to play lead on a bass.

Townshend said that 'John played lead on the bass and  Keith played keyboards on the drums,' Townshend was the rhythm section on lead guitar. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Entwistle

I think it would be cool if we could all decide on a time where we could all hoist a pint at the same time in memory of John Entwistle! Wouldn't hurt my feelings if you thought 'Happy Birthday to Whom It May Concern', too.)

Hmmm. I don't know if I should be flattered or afraid. 

If I didn't think it would cause internet stalking I would post links to some ancient photos of my with my Gibson and then the Martin, just so you know I'm not making it up.

Which model of Martin do you have? I have the HD-28.

To Whom It May Concern:

Though we have all had our differences in the past and have enjoyed verbal jousts.

Happy Birthday

Clearly there is at least ONE thing that you and I agree on....that Entwistle was a master.

I would say there was two things, but I like SRV even more than you, and am a long time fan.

Excuse me typo . Made me go look

It 's a Martin D 18   about 1965 or 66 . The memories all blend together eventually.

No-one laugh at the hair styles or dresses ....it was the 60's for God's sake.

and a really older one with the stolen Gibson, probably 1964

http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f213/Lugnut67/Gibson.jpg

Aaah to be so young again.  At least I still have the guitar.

Thanks for sharing...

Will you let your Martin go for $235?

How come you're holding a G Sharp chord and the other girl is holding an A Minor?

Jun 14, 2007 12:06 pm

I’m waiting for a G-String joke.

Jun 14, 2007 12:18 pm

my band has a band nazi. what do i do? here is the situation, our drummer brought his wife in the band(big mistake), and she has been trying to change us from a classic rock band to a band playing many current songs. i am 43 and i am the youngest in the band, the oldest in 57. i do not want to do this. the other negative is that they live down the street form me and we play at my house.

Jun 14, 2007 1:35 pm

Yeah ev’rbody funny, now you funny too!

Jun 14, 2007 1:54 pm

Because she didn't know how to play the guitar very well and the publicist thought we should have a photo with both of us playing. 

You notice she doesn't play in the other photos

Just to be sure everybody is aware (and thank you Babs for your wishes) The Ox passed on June 27th of 2002.

At 4:30p eastern time on the 27th I'll raise a glass while playing Postcard in memory of John. Hope you'll join me!
