Members T.B. Posted January 13, 2009 Members Share Posted January 13, 2009 Yeah, I'm three weeks behind: The holdiay(s) were bitter sweet for our family, my beloved Mother-In-Law passed away unexpectily. So, I find myself this morining in my daughters dorm room in, Tallahassee... it's just "hit" her that her la abuela is gone so, I'm doing some hand holding. So, let it ripp whatcha get.

Members TESmith Posted January 13, 2009 Members Share Posted January 13, 2009 Actually wife and I had No Christmas, things are just to tight right now, We did get the Kids some things, But it was a smaller Christmas that normal! (Kids still had it well though, they are my step Kids and they spend all of the Holiday events at their dads, they skip on us for Christmas, New Years, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, and Thanksgiving they go have these times with their Dad we get none of it) Sorry to hear about your MIL, death is always difficult, and many many times it does take awhile to sink in, I really understand, My thoughts are with you and your family.

Members Fred Fartboski Posted January 13, 2009 Members Share Posted January 13, 2009 Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers album: "Anthology: Through The Years"Great stuff! Have you seen the recent 6 hour documentary of Tom Petty by Peter Bogdanovich. They run it on Sundance Channel, commercial free, every so often. I watched the first three hours earlier last year and just caught up on the second three hours over the holidays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members C70man Posted January 13, 2009 Members Share Posted January 13, 2009 Well after the wife and I decided NOT to exchange gifts (tough times too), So she went and got Leo Kottke tickets for us. He's coming February 20th. I can't wait. It's been forever since I last saw him. (30 years). I doubt he will recognize me. Ha. Ha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VH1C also had an interesting show about Mudcrutch, which was the first band he put together. They're suppose to be back together and going on tour.

Members Gary Palmer Posted January 13, 2009 Members Share Posted January 13, 2009 Socks, a few CD's, books, workshop calendar, guitar cuff-links, money-clip (Someone was definitely taking the water), a bottle of Jack Daniels and a few sets of strings. So, I'll have warm feet while listening to music, reading, knowing which day of the week it is, dressed up with nowhere to go with an empty money-clip, but be quite merry and able to try changing the strings I break due to alcohol intake.

They're suppose to be back together and going on tour. There was a segment devoted to Mudcrutch on the Bogdanovich doc. Amazing all the old footage they were able to come up with from Tom's early days before he became famous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bert Posted January 15, 2009 Members Share Posted January 15, 2009 I got myself an Electro-Harmonix "POG". It lets me plug in my 12 string and sound like a pipe organ thru the sound system.....definitely raised some eyes upward at church. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
