Maybe we should interview one bartender who will keep the girls dropping in from time to time as well?......what say you, females of the animal bar?

You are on your own with that one Rob unless Wendy wants to help you there

Around here;
Just about all are Falcon, Savoy, or Millers (except for a few Hohners floating around).

All those are hand made....and use bees wax for the reeds.... meaning they aren't el-cheap-0s you can leave in the car/heat.

They'll start at about $2k and go up from there for cool stuff on the bellows or inlays....and depends on wet or dry.






Most players I play with have 3...a Bb, A, and G

Wow, very cool squeeze boxes Jimmy. I guess mine is getting up there too in price. i bought that one when I was about 12 so it's been part of the family for well over 40 years.

total was almost 2500$ installed , i asked him for 500$ i should have asked for more, but f-it

hes just pissed that the LEO actually went to his residence and left him a paper to come to the precinct, and since their were witnesses , aww he busted and trying to get out of it, i actually told him where i bought it and told him to use my name and chat with company that would tell him what it cost, i told him this is considered to be a proffesional hoop, not the hoop you buy in sports world

Morning Everyone!

How is the rain going Doug. Did all that rain fill up your rain barrels? We are suppose to get 3 to 6 inches by Sat eve.

Doing some remodeling of my guest bathroom here too Robbie.

Chuck I hope you get the money to replace the damaged hoop!

Jimmy, You guys should post videos of your musical talent.

Paul, I'm good with any bar help as long as they keep their clothing on!


I see we have passed the 1000 post to start a new bar thread. We are almost to 2000. Unless Admins have an issue with band width lets take this one to 2000 and then start a new one.

over 2" of rain total.

went to check the rain water cistern behind the guesthouse, noticed water spilling down the side, but it didn't sound full when i thumped the side. checked it out: the filter on top was clogged. ick. pulled some gunk away, caught the rest of the water. probably lost a few hundred gallons over the side. still have about 2700 gallons in that tank, out of 3000. the other tanks by the shop also got a nice addition, as did the pond. fish have plenty of muddy water now (it will settle out).
