There was another guy who always complained about his health and life issues,

You mean Glen, I think it was, the guy who could brighten a room by leaving it. His wife finally died and I think he did too. Cliff left New Jersey and I think he moved to Florida and moved into Glen's batchelor pad trailer. Or maybe I have that wrong........

I think it was Glen, or Glenn. Besides all the health issues he was into barter fairs or something off the beaten path.
I was going to look up Cliff the next time I was in New York or New Jersey, but I haven't been back there in at least 10 years. I've about had it with the big cities, especially after being the victim of a "smash and grab" out of our rental van north of San Francisco a couple days ago. That's what happens when they reduce property thefts from a felony to a citation in order to avoid overcrowded jails.
Good to know Waskel is still around. I need to find him. A bunch of my Ovations need new strings.

Maybe I'll pick some up from Dave when I'm in Phoenix next week.

And now, Jon Peterson on Bass Solo.


Wow, that was 7 or 8 years ago. Someone your age should have forgotten that by now...


That was in 2008 at Amelia Island -- 12 years ago.

This place, in the first 6-7 years, was like the Cheers bar on tv. It was fun, a bit rowdy at times, and highly informative regarding Ovation guitars. The people who hung around could take being teased and could give it right back. Not everybody liked it, but for a lot of us, it was home for a few years.

I miss it, but then, nothing lasts forever.......

What's interesting to me is that a lot of what happened on here in the early years, now happens on Facebook with mostly a different group of people.   Mainly the ones that "left" the forum because they wanted to use an environment more appealing to a social club or as you pointed out... "Cheers".   I mean the forums were fun when there wasn't another option, but it's a heckuva lot easier to banter on facebook and I don't have to refresh the screen...  or wait...  I can go about my day, and I'll be notified when the conversation continues.  

I belong to several groups, even Ovation guitar groups and other guitar groups, and car groups, and music gear groups, and someone posts something and it creates a massive thread that goes every which way, and that even happens with just friends.

There's a long thread now between several people from here on Facebook that has to do nothing with music.  Most of us became friends via this Forum...  but we use Facebook because.... well...  right tool right job.  

I do find it interesting.

After lunch coffee, but basically the same here.
Glad this joint is still open.

This was the second forum I logged in, with computers being that new back then, and posted a lot in the beginning. And spent a lot of money.

Thanks for that, no need for facebook or other Ovation boards,
Kurt
