Maybe a regular model in that color, seeing as how you have some friends in low places there...

Careful Jason, you may wish you had such a "low" friend one day.

Ok, another comes to mind.

Hey, aint it good to know that youve got a friend?
People can be so cold.
Theyll hurt you and desert you.
Well theyll take your soul if you let them.
Oh yeah, but dont you let them.

You just call out my name and you know wherever I am
Ill come running to see you again.
Oh babe, dont you know that,
Winter spring summer or fall,
Hey now, all youve got to do is call.
Lord, Ill be there, yes I will.
Youve got a friend.
Youve got a friend.
Aint it good to know youve got a friend

Kind of a PS, I seem to be able to find lyrics that can express MY feelings way better than me typing. People seem to "get it" better.

On another topic, I'm downloading Smithereens' tunes like mad! What a band!! I knew nothing of them before this last weekend.

The Smithereens were unheard of downunder, until Darren Trott put me onto them. It's great stuff!
Really tight band!

Whoa! Sorry for the confusion... 'round these parts "friend in a low place" is definitely a compliment!

Blood and Roses has always been one of my favorite songs..The Smithereens were a staple in my listening back in the mid-late 80's..That's why it was so cool to be able to meet them,especially Pat DiNizio,he's really cool..Plus,I painted his 350 myself when I saw it was for him..That was my way of saying thanks..

No worries Jason! Consider yourself to have a friend in this "low" place!

My wife is a big Smithereens fan and she's bummed that we couldn't make the HOB.

Cool, Eric. I was talking to Pat D. at the HOB and he was excited about his new 350. The Smithereens really rocked! (as did all of the other acts)
