I care. :!:

In fact I once heard a monkey tell his boss that he was the best damn hurdy gurdy man on the planet.

I was impressed (and, yes, the man "was singing songs of love.") 8)

A man with wicked impeccable taste. :)

Not much more to quote from that song in a PG-rated forum. So I'll go on to: "I might be movin' to Montana soon, just to raise me up a crop of dental floss..."

Not sure what you mean? My Marshall heads both sound great! I was joking in another thread about doing the "Nigel Tufnel" mod. (Nigel Tufnel was the guitarst for Spinyl Tap that had his knobs "go to 11."
