I saw FZ and the MOI in 1972; the original Mahavishnu Orchestra opened for them.

BTW, anybody want some peanutbutter cookies?

Nah, never cared for peanut butter cookies. Now a good oatmeal chocolate chip...

I like both, pass 'em over, please!

Are ya gonna be "erk"ed if I don't?

You might raise his eyer.

And, speaking of irks (and to drift this thread in another completely weird direction), My Grandfather's name was Irwin, but my Grandmother always called him "Irk". I never knew if there was any hidden meaning to that...



So, I guess that I'm actually related to an "Irk". Oh, and my other Grandmother's maiden name was "Klutz". Really! So, I suppose that means I could be a really Irksome Klutz, huh?

I never said anything but the music I like sucks. I said people who were pioneers and innovators deserve to have sig models names after them. What has the bass player from Blink 182 done that is innovative or pioneering? I have no idea what his name is. I had to look him up on the internet to see who he was and what group he was in after I saw he had an as Fender called it and Artist Series Bass named after him.

Irk - What irks me.

Welcome to this thread, John!

Well, he did get naked and run around San Diego for a music video. Now you know the criteria to meet for getting a Fender signature bass.
