Role Call Old and New

Post by admin »

For RRF members, old and new. Please remind us where you are from. I am from Fredericton, N.B. Canada where we are currently buried under snow and ice. Yay, spring at last. I would love to hear what's going on in your neighbourhood.

I just changed by strings from flats to round wounds on my 4003 Silver and I am loving it. :)

I'm currently living in Costa Mesa, California, but I was born and raised in Peoria, Illinois. :)

I'm in North Kingstown, RI. I still play my 74 4001 everyday, I have other basses but to me this is the one. Thanks RRF for making me a better bass player and a better Ric owner. Cheers!

I'm in Nieuwegein (try to pronounce that correctly :lol: ), the Netherlands, originally from a village around Delft.

In my neighbourhood nothing is going on. I doubt you could find a more boring place than Nieuwegein anywhere!

Well this seems like a good place for a first post!

I'm from London, GB. Since being old enough to walk I've been trying get out and stay out of the place but somehow always end up back with my tail between my legs...but always with a Rick hard case in my right hand 8)

Like any big city there's too much going on to mention, though gratefully I'm not rich or artistic enough to be invited to most of it :mrgreen:

Born in Ohio,lived almost my entire adult life in Memphis, Tennessee,and for the last 5 years residing on the Oregon Coast in a small town as a pre-positioning for retirement.Usually this time of year means gloom and rain,although it then gets downright summery some days. I was mowing the lawn and working on my solar vitamin D intake earlier this week.

Born and raised in rural Nebraska - is "rural" redundant? :D

Now living in a somewhat frigid Northwest Suburb of Chicago. No lawn mowing going on in this "Northwest", I'm afraid, and Vitamin D comes with frostbite today.

Big Hello from Northern Ireland - part of the UK. Best of both worlds, as I can be either Irish or British, depending on circumstances!
