My Carl Thompson Thread.

Topics about musical instruments other than guitar should go here. There's bound to be a Carter, LeRoi, or Yo-Yo Ma out there.

So basically, my life has peaked.

Lotsa pictures:

I also took two short videos on Saturday. The first is Les and Carl talking about basses onstage during soundcheck, the second is most of the Fancy Band's performance of One Step Beyond!

If you don't get a download slot, don't bitch about it, just try again.

One Step Beyonnnnnd!

Some highlights:

The Man and me.
Image

Dave, John and Me backstage at the Aftershow. Dave, on the right, has 7 CTs. Only one of them he ordered personally from Carl. He was awesome.
Image

Jeff Frohman and me. Jeff is one of Carl's best friends, you've probably seen a pic of me holding his 6 string. Jeff got us the aftershow vip passes, for which I am very thankful.

At soundcheck:

Bass talk!

Sex.

At the show.

Carl & me.

I didn't see the vids, but judging by the photos you had an awesome time. It must be neat to hang out with Carl fucking Thompson.

Don't lose the dreams inside your head. Just keep thinking about how nice the bass will be and try not to worry about stuff like Carl dying.
