Happy 4th! I'm back on the bandstand contest! We have a winner - hit it right on the nose!

Stone193

First, I want to take the chance to wish everyone a Happy 4th - this is my 6th here!

It's been a pleasure!

I've told some people here that I decided to get back into playing - spent my entire adult life playing music - my last band was in 1997 when I retired from the Army.

Here I am:



I've been working on organizing my games and I have two of this game: Varsity - The Scientific Football Game - 1942.

This is a Cadaco-Ellis game.



So, here's a simple one: guess how many songs are on our TOTAL set list for the evening - the first person coming closest without going over takes home a nice game.

And, yes, I don't mind if the person decides to sell it ebay.

I can't believe I'm in my 6th year here - sure have learned alot!!!!

edit: this will close on Saturday - I'll post the set on Sunday.

Wow, that would be an all nighter! Especially since they're playing all prog rock with an average per song runtime of 12:25. Just kidding.

Very cool Jimi style strat. I just picked up a Gibson ES135 with real P-90s (not the wanabee P100s) and a bigsby for fathers day. I then preceeded to play Girls got Rythym to the annoyance of my Wife all night long.

I pick 11 songs, 2 Freebird shout outs and 1 drunk chick dancing all by herself.

Well, we have a winner - meuandthelot hit it right on the nose with 31! Please PM your addy - thanx.

It was hot here in Texas - we played outside - I'm tired now and hungover.

Here's what we played: Three Sets

1. Can't get enough of your love - Bad Company
2. Jenny, Jenny - Tommy Tutone
3. Learn to fly - Foo Fighters
4. Jealous again - Black Crows
5. Heaven's Door - Guns'n Roses
6. When I come around - Green day
7. Interstate love song - Stone temple pilots
8. Can't you see - Marshall Tucker band
9. Cumbersome - 7 Mary 3
10. Joker - Steve Miller band
11. Twist'n shout - Beatles
12. Good lovin' - Young Rascals

28. Time of your life - Green day
29. Margaritaville - Jimmy Buffett
30. Wanted dead or alive - Bon Jovi
31. Alright now - Free

We had a pretty time over all - the PA sound was not very good - no one wants to pony up for a good system - this one was borrowed - Peavey speakers - my wife said it sounded like we were playing thru a wind tunnel.

Basically, we're a "Six pack" band - after 6 beers - we sound incredible!!!

Hope everyone is having a good weekend! Mine went way too fast!!!
mike

edit: I noticed Nightcrawler came in 2nd with the same pick of 31 - since he was second - but heck that's a good pick! - if he would like, I'd like to include him as one of the winners of the 1992 National thread - PM me with choice of either the 1992 UD Fanfest set or the 92Classic 100 card draftpick set with the first Shaq RC.

meuandthelot

Oh Man....
First, I hope you had a great 4Th and a great show that brought back some of the good ole' day memories, or the thrill it brings as I've never felt the chills, butterflies, satisfaction..? from playing any musical instrument, let alone being on stage..lol

--->Golf update: Hunter Mahan just tied course record to post a -12 Woods turn to reply<---

Secong...Great news!! Just may get me rejuvenated.
Thank you so much for your always well thought posts, the early help, especially the "Card sort, only touching them 3x tip"
Heck there's so much you have added in my short time here.

I eagerly await another of those cherished collection pieces due to the "How & Why" you acquired it!!

Thanks,
Rich
