Erik, please don't call yourself names, you deserve far better
And with Aussies I meant Australians, not you "Ösis" :p

Howdy Heidi
I'm quite sure your better half will be thrilled when you travel with Brian Johnson. Just don't forget your school uniform, it might come in handy...

By the way: which is your better half - left, right, upper, lower?

P.S. You can bet your sweet behind that Glenn won't forget the answers. When I look at his book and see what he remembers, even from the hard times... Hats off!

Hi Glenn, just a simple question : Do you believe in astrology ? As you are born in the sign of the Leo , and on stage you do act like a lion ( as i witnessed in the Opera house of Vienna in July this year ) and you got the voive of a lion

Thanx, Erik - purplelion, Austria, Niederrussbach

purplelion69 · JON LORD is fighting cancer! purplelion69 October 7, 2011 at 11:54 PM

So there is hope at least, all we can do is pray for Jon and be thankful for the joy he brought to our lives.....

purplelion69 · Guitar Talk Flying V purplelion69 September 17, 2011 at 9:56 AM

Quote from Sigurd

Hi everyone,
yesterday i bought my first Flying V guitar, and i must say it is a real baby, which got incredible tone for the price!. It is no Gibson, it is a Epiphone, a beautiful 58ties model with korina wood and alnico pickups.
It has a breathing percussive tone and a lot punch in the bottom.
I like Epiphone, also this little 5 watts amp!
So i have lot's of fun at the moment as you can imagine,

regards
Sigurd

Quote from lioness

That is the trouble with cancer. Very often you still feel good, you look good. And the right diagnosis comes too late. When the beast has already taken over.

I can assure you that this lousy piece of news about my musical hero has affected me badly. Last night I was still awake at 3 am, when I decided to get up and listen to Sarabande, which calmed me down a bit.

Lioness, i spent much time with ill people as it`s my profession, most of it in hospitals but there is nothing for sure. Nobody knows what tomorrow may bring, all we can do is hope and pray for a relative good prognosis and for... luck. I simply can`t imagine that all i like will pass, terrible thought, have to get rid of it......
