those sounds are amazing!  kind of heartbreaking.

do you think he was motivated by loneliness or fetish?

re: slow death?  eh.

eric, what is the PT board?

Phantasytour.com  There's a bunch of bands on there and they added MMJ a few months back.

Such a nice treat to see a post from Bluesky.  How it all started for me 8-9 years ago

Good to see you back around here.  :beer:

If it wasn't for this place I'd have never met you or so many other great people. That alone keeps this place special to me, and keeps me coming back.

I hear that Eric.  It is special.  I made a news years resolution to deactivate my FB acct.  I found myself going down a rabbit hole with it.   Fb does have some redeeming qualities that helped further relationships with many of you.  But it started to become an issue with me being on there all the time.  #thestruggleisreal [emoji3]

Was just thinking the other day, if not for this place I'd have never have met bluesky and been jetting off to Iceland with her in a couple weeks!

MMJ has introduced me to a lot of cool folks, but I'll always love the forum OGs the best.

Amen Sister lady,   You gals are gonna have a blast in Iceland.  I hope you don't get ravaged by Vikings  :cheesy:

Aww... warms my heart to see this.   :thumbsup:

You guys know how I feel about the Forum (and how FB lured so many other cool cats away).  Great to see Bluesky, ALady, tatebug, ericm, headhunter (happy anniversary, Jeff!), soulshine, Ms. Yvon, fully, and anyone else here where it all started.

Is this board dying a slow death?  Not quite.

Is it a shell of its former self?  Perhaps.

Does it offer a place to connect with eventual life-long friends?  Seems that way!

Definitely looking forward to seeing you all at Red Rocks. 

Tater... you flyin' to RR?
The fact that my heart's beating is all the proof you need.

Taterbug

Good morning Yac.   Yes I'm flying.  We arrive Thursday and depart the following Tuesday.   I'm really looking forward to it also, can't wait to see everyone, oh and the band also [emoji3]

I've been off of here for a while, mostly busy.  But I can always say that this is where it started for me, and thru roll call - I've met the nicest people who share an interest that is near and dear to my heart/soul.  This band!!

I'm hoping to go to Louisville and hope to see some of you there! 

God's grace -  :smiley:

bluesky

Great to see you all here too! I just shut down my face book as well. I would much rather gather this way online. I've always liked the way this site is organized. And I miss being here where we mostly talk about band stuff, unless we are talking about Vikings!!!  :evil:

MMJ has introduced me to a lot of cool folks, but I'll always love the forum OGs the best.

1.  ICELAND?!

2. Forum OGs 4 Lyfe

that's gonna be a big back tattoo.  i'll get it on my 80th birthday.  i think the centerpiece will be Ghosts & Ruckus faces...

Ahhh, I also miss the old days of the forum.  It was such a simpler time, with so much less information constantly hitting me in the face.  I totally hear you, tater, on the facebook rabbit hole.  I haven't given it up yet, but it's probably a very smart idea. 
I appreciate meeting so many of you through this forum, and happy to call you all my Jacket Family, whether it's here, FB, Insta, or on THE ROAD!
