@Jim: Unfortunately there aren't many options available if you want to drink a beer at the regular French bar. There are some international brands like Heineken and Leffe, some local ones Kronenburg (this is what I usually drink) and another one whose name escapes me, and if you're lucky they'll also have unfiltered beer... And that's (usually) it. |

What a fish ( Spanish Mackerel) I am not an angler. I have caught about 1/2 dozen fish in my life and pulled this bugger aboard. He/she fed 20 people. Bloody hard work was not the word bringing this in.I went because my bother in law is the angler and he came back empty handed and anyway I will go out on the ocean anytime,fishing or not. love it out on the water. Hamilton Island,Whitsundays in Queensland was the place. Yippee I have a fish photo.

Ever been to a good ol' North Carolina redneck cookout? Here we are! From left to right: My brother Jason, my dad (playing my Strat), me (playing his), and my uncle Danny on vocals (sort of).  That microphone stand is a fan stand. My uncle also uses it as a sprinkler stand. That day it was a mic stand. And that kid running up there is my cousin's boy Jake (Danny's grandson). He's hell on wheels! Cool kid.  Jake nearly turned the water hose on our amplifiers. Good thing his mama his fast.  Speaking of his fast mama, here she is racing with my brother Jason.  Dottie was always adventurous like this. When we were kids, I rode on the back of her ten speed bike and got my foot caught in the spokes. She wondered why the hell the brakes were on even though she wasn't applying them. God that hurt.   And Jason wins with a little bump draft from a second cousin!  Here's the band again.  Here I am giving a full performance of Still the Waters. Psych. I sang "I Fall to Pieces" by Patsy Cline, "When the Man Comes Around" and "Folsom Prison Blues" by Johnny Cash, and "Statesboro Blues" and "One Way Out" by the Allman Brothers Band. My old man used a half-full beer bottle for the slide guitar solos.  My boy looking downright American in a Radio Flyer wagon. His little sister is fat and happy in the stroller back there.  95 years of life. My great grandma Eva Maynor was born April 14, 1915. And yeah, she could probably kick your ass. She's holding my brother Jason's son, who's name is Edgar.  Singing an old country song is my Great Aunt Lene. I forget how old she is but she's having a tough bout with emphysema. I swear, it was worth going to North Carolina if only to hear her voice again. She sounded amazing. I wish you could hear it.  ------------- https://epignosis.bandcamp.com/album/a-month-of-sundays" rel="nofollow - https://epignosis.bandcamp.com/album/a-month-of-sundays |

Indeed, it always pleases me to see your family. You're happy man for sure. Speaking about your dad (one year older than my dad), were you thinking about asking him for help on let's say one track's guitar work ? It would be interesting. Or you can ask more vocal-talented people from your big family and do something like multi-vocal track. Seriously meant. By the way, does your family members loves Echolyn and Kansas as well ? ------------- There's a point where "avant-garde" and "experimental" becomes "terrible" and "pointless," -Andyman1125 on Lulu Even my |

My family literally knows nothing about prog rock. My dad got me into Kansas, but only because he played "Dust in the Wind" on guitar. Yes, I will get my dad to record a guitar part on something probably.
