Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

I wonder if Tom Petty wrote the song because he was waiting for a new Rickenbacker he ordered back then…lol

Tom waits for no one! I heard Mick Jagger say that once...

No, I think Jagger said "Tom Tom Tom is on my side." Pretty sure.

Oh boy.....There's one in every village!

Some say there's a village in Kenya that's missing theirs, but I wouldn't know about that.

Tom was in The Village People???

Nah, he wrote it for the rest of us in that boat!

Well, you guys joke, but Mick did have a very bad reaction(in song) to the discovery that Hugh Hefner and Dennis Weaver were having an affair.


"I said, Hey, Hey, Hugh, Hugh, get off of McCloud."

Its all there in the lyrics, for those who take the time to listen carefully....

Ouch!

I'm waiting on two !!

One will be dispatched next Friday!

Funny, when I ordered a 650 Dakota about 15 years ago I was told "six to eight months". It showed up 2 weeks later.

Really put a crimp in my budget, as I was hoping for some of that "six to eight months" to save up some money so I could actually afford the guitar.

Ah...this thread brings back memories.
