Just had a look at Texas reporter link.
U had very large portions in Texas,looked @ the dance hall report also.
You have a really different culture to us.

I bet I would say the same if I was In your country.  Check out more of the reporter clips.  Like the motorcycle hotel.

While I didnt have a case of GAS like Naolslager, I did have a case of  Peace, Love, Motorcycle, and Chicken Fried Steak!
My son and I went for a ride out to the #1 place to get it. Marys Cafe in Strawn Tx.  (we did have GAS after we left though  :lol:

This is the coolest place and very laid back.  Here is the Texas Country reporter on them.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfGXlKtxjIA

OH if you order the  cheesy loaded fries as an appitizer, the small can feed 5 easy.  Real Cheddar, not the crap in a can. Bacon bits and chives! just needed some sour cream which If I asked we could have gotten.

Ok no guitar, but some good times on a sunday :D

I couldn't understand a word with so much reverb in the vocals.  I saw a stuffed frog and a little girl without the guitar player playing the guitar.  What lead to that?

Zurf, lolol even with my hearing I understood most of it,,
the adults in the audience were fighting around the little girl.  watch close to Pinks eyes as she is singing, she sees the little girl crying. Stops the show and gives her a stuffed front and a rice crispy treat. Told her she looked pretty and told the so called adults to chill out.   I looked at 5 different post of this and the one I put up is by far the best quality.

That was cool. I dont know who Michale Buble is,,(um yea i dont watch the X factor I had to look him up) but what a class act thing to do.  The mom was pretty ballsy to do what she did, and Im surprised security didnt remove her b4 she was able to get her son  up there.  Its pretty clear Mr Buble didnt think the kid was going to be able to sing. (Z,  Im pretty sure a 15 yr old kid has said more than that with his friends).

If you have never seen this clip, its well worth it.  Pink is truely a star and a good down toearth person.  just watch this concert clip.

Stephen Stills tried out for the Monkees and didn`t make it. He told his friend Peter Tork about it. You know the rest.

Actually they asked Stephen if he knew anyone that looked like him, music ability not a must, but had better teeth! lol !!

Well I was a huge monkeys fan as a kid with the re- runs. but as to the musicians part:

Mike and Peter were the only ones who know how to play.  Micky started learning the drums after joining. he is pretty deacent nowdays.  Davy was hired mainly for his poster boy looks, but it helped that he could sing.

The only reason Mike and Peter got any songs on the first 3 records was cause they fought for them.  (they knew about publishing royalities) so Kirshner let Nesmith put 2 songs on and peter one. ( Mikes songs actually were some of my favorite! Listen to the band, You just may be the one, sunny girlfriend,and Sweet young thing!-heavy for the times!)
the shows writers and music  producer (Kirshner)  ran everything. They hired the best songwriters and studio musicians they had.  Yes he had Neil Diamond, but also carol King and Neil Sadaka. The majority of the songs were written by Tommy Boyce and Bobby Heart.

here is the history for ya, gotta love VH1- this is part one, just follow the links for the rest- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDrxFJFScAM

just so you can get your fixes check these links out (first 3 whole records) :

(HEADQUARTERS was teh first record they actually played "some" of the instruments on)

Thank you for the help.  I have been able to get the first few measures and I'm kinda taking it from there.  Just struggling and was hoping somebody could hand feed me. LOL I'll keep working on it.  I posted a message on Facebook to Dave Meneketti but I figured that was a long shot also.  smile  Thank you again.

No problem, this is what the sites about. Join in more often on general topics, and let ppl get to know you.  Once  they figure out your not a fly by night or a spammer, you will have all the help you can ask for,, sometimes you have to be a bit thick skinned cause at times there is a certain amout of sarcasm lol Good luck. (You sure you couldnt find something else she likes thats more available? LOLOL

Man thats a tough one,,,old school glam metal .  Im the resident metal head around  here for the most part,,(don't think many would argue lol ) but I don't know where to find that one in tab or chords.  I think I would find a buddy who has a good ear, and figure out how to fake it.  They were not one of my often listened to bands. Other than summertime girls,,     
this vid shows most of the chords. you cant see guitar 1 but you may get close.  Sounds like a D run to me,, and the power chords gtr 2 is holdig.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGOD12p4uZ0  and this  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MN1m-i9QWV8   I am also going to take a wild guess that they have transposed it down an octive cause he probably cant hit the high notes any more. (it happens)

I am hoping that the new CD is going to be KICK BUTT.  I have always been a Sabbath fan. Ozzy days most, but I love the DIO era and have Dehumanizer with Dio also.

Ozzy is actually looking pretty good these days.  I think you have done the right thing, I dont konw if I will be able to see them here in the states, but at least I have seen Ozzy live.  What a great showman!

So for thoes of us who can not be there rock a little for us too! \m/ \m/

Hang out with the guys more and get them to show you. Some of the magic will rub off.  Best I have ever played was with a few guys who were great players, they just would show me  a tune and then Idd follow along. If I got lost I wpuld signal one of them and he would get me back on track.
