Another contest?

The new bass of the month has just been posted at
http://www.madanthonycafe.com/bass.html
It's the custom painted Yamaha by Christian Reese Lassen. It is sweet!

Mike and I were talking the other day about next month's bass and we may
spotlight
the bass he used to record Big Bad Bill (Is Sweet William Now). Some cool
history
there. I'll keep you posted!

Looks like the instruments are in the news more than the band.

whoopee

Yeah, big freaking deal !! I guess since they are not using their instruments, they are going to "showcase" them.

I dont understand why Mike has to have a seperate website that does not seem related to VH ?!?!

Is Mike still in VH ? Does VH even exist ??

Well, I just stumbled on an e-mail message Brad had sent in reply to a friend of his.

Here it is:

From: "Brad Starks" <bradman@van-halen.com>
>To: sunyaDF@aol.com

I was over at Mike's place the other day. We talked about the web site in regards to a bass contest we would make up for the fans. Mikey got a kick out of the joke I played on them with the whole numbers game (12-12-12). He was laughing histerically and saying stuff like "dumb stupid fucks." I couldn't stop laughing either. Fun stuff.
Anyhow, Mike asked if I had my camera. Well, I did, so he wanted me to take more pictures of him giving the 'middle finger'. It was funny! This time Mike put both fingers up his nose! Hahahaha! Too funny. Then he made a gesture where he had both middle fingers pointed to his crotch. By this time, my stomach was hurting from laughing too much. Oh man!
Then Mike went a little crazy, as if he was on the 1984 tour all over again, and grabbed the camera from me and pushed me against the wall. I was like "Fuck! You wanna go, butterball??!!" He said "Show me what ya got Braddy".

So we proceded to do some 'play fighting', grade 6-7 style.
Had a great time and went home to work on Mikey's web site!
