Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

Thanks everybody. Glad to be here. Yes, we still back Marshall Crenshaw on a regular basis. He plays solo a lot these days, but whenever he feels like havin' a rock band, we do it anytime our schedule allows. We just played around the midwest with him two weeks ago. We were playin' in Cincinnati the same time Peter Buck and Alejandro Escovedo were. Different venues. We knew we couldn't attend each others shows, so we finished our soundcheck and met up with Peter at his soundcheck. Rics all sound the same to me. Great. I love all Rics, but I like havin' one to lavish all my love upon. IF I ever got another, I never would own anything but a round edge 360 again. They're my favorite. I don't need a signature model, that IS my signature model. Round edge 360 with Hi-Gains. Like my Rikki, offloadin' a little capacitance here at the hotel... Brian

Here's a recent shot of us with Marshall Crenshaw. He is such a killer guitar player...

Har! Welcome aboard, Brian.

Greetings Brian! We already have Mitch Easter here, so we've heard lots of his stories about working with Peter and the band. As a high profile gigging musician, it sounds like you'll make a valuable contribution to this forum. Welcome aboard!

Hi Brian,

I have enjoyed your songs and the bands playing for many years now. When my boys were like 7 years old Kit Cat Clock was our anthem for summer camping. (dont know why, just was!)

I just got my first Ric, a 360 12, and the first song I tried it out on in my home studio was Gravity Fails. You are a GREAT songwriter! There's a lot going on in that songs lyrics.

So, if you want to hear your song with just a twist of McGuinn, give a listen here:

Please forgive me if I mangled it too much!

Welcome to the forums, Brian! Great stories and pics.
