	♥ 9:56pm efd: ha, I bet!
	♥ 9:57pm efd: I would just like to point out that the two instruments in this band are drums and bass. That's right: bass. Not guitar. Bass.

	10:01pm ?: Super programming
	♥ 10:02pm efd: @Cooh John I don't know from stringed instruments myself, but I'm sure part of it has to do with the fact that he's playing through two different amps simultaneously.

	♥ 10:05pm Bootsie: Wait, What? Bass??
	10:05pm Stevel: They sure know how to end a song, much less playing them. Woof!

	♥ 10:40pm Alex of Chicago: i have to ask, what rock club in seattle?
	♥ 10:47pm efd: uhhhhh.... I don't remember! I think it was in the Ballard neighborhood?
	♥ 10:53pm Alex of Chicago: probably the backstage or the tractor tavern. sorry, just touched a nerve.
	♥ 10:56pm efd: pretty sure it was Tractor Tavern - that sounds familiar now that you mention it.
	♥ 11:03pm chris_in_space: Tuning in late this evening. Delighted to hear a couple of vintage AC/DC tracks. Man, how I cranked Problem Child when I was 11 years old.
	♥ 11:04pm efd: key change!
	♥ 11:06pm efd: my favorite part of the song is when it starts back up again after the false ending.
	11:09pm Mike tp: sounding bit like Edgar winter!a bit
	11:12pm Mike tp: digging the pan
	♥ 11:15pm efd: I need to figure out a way to get more Pan into this tribute.
