How are we non_US 'Rickaholics' going to find out what the story is?

Oops! Guess it'll be in the forum!

Word for the day:

SITCOMs.

Single Income, Two Children, Oppressive Mortgage. What yuppies turn into when they have children and one stops working to stay home with the kids or start a "home business".

They are finally coming out with that 4005 reissue, haha!
If it was only one paper I would think maybe a JH interview, but not in all those papers.
Geddy Lee endorses Ric? (I put that for all the fans here)

Paul. Go to this Forum main page and select the second last item - 'The Searchers' Forum'. Then select the 'McNally in Oz 2005' thread.

Be prepared for a shock and make sure there aren't any kiddies in the room!!

A couple of the publications are real interesting. Network World? E Week? Not pubs you would necassarily associate with guitars. Something new on the horizon.

I've got the scoop ... Rickenbacker is coming out with a V-series ... instead of buying a real Ric bass you download a virtual bass and play it ... remember air guitar??? it is sorta like that ...
