THE Random Chat Thread - AKA "The RCT" - No shirt or shoes required - Open 24 / 7

Good morning everyone. Happy Friday.

Here's a random shot of the moon my wife got yesterday morning. It looks like something out of the Simpsons, almost cartoonish, but that's just the way it looked -- no photoshop or other trickery involved.

I'm allergic to peppers, so most of the mentioned can't be used.

Ginger is a must add to most soups.
Gingered squash lentil base, yummy.

We render it down to a thick broth.
Then freeze, or make a very large root vegetable soup. (Just about every type of vegetable can be in there)lentil based also.
Then the combinations with a bean base.
This provides many options for meals.
Dice up turkey, add to soup base.

Your welcome and welcome aboard too.
Long way to the top with the bagpipes is awesome. Never get tired of hearing that one. Great story with it too.

"While AC/DC were at Albert Studios in Sydney working on the TNT album in 1975, co-producer George Young suggested that an extended jam, which he was set to trim down to 5 minutes and 02 seconds, needed bagpipes to give it a zing.
Bon Scott mouthed off that he’d been in a piper band in his younger days and could do the job.
“So we let Bon put his mouth where his mouth was,” Angus chuckled to this writer.
Bon popped out and bought one for $479 ($2,613 in today’s money) – a lot of dosh for a penniless band… and even more so when it turned out that while Scott had been in a pipe band, it was as a drummer.
Malcolm Young recounted the recording in Billboard:
“Bon actually could play flute, not bagpipes. So he played the melody, and then we did the drones separate and put it on and it sounded fantastic.”
On the recording, the pipes were played by band piper Charlie Williams.
ABC-TV’s Countdown’s director Paul Drane made the clip, featuring the band on a flatbed truck driving up Melbourne’s Swanston Street on February 23, 1976.
Total cost: $200 ($1,051.55 today). By 2010, it had 7 million YouTube views.
Joining them were Les Kenfield, Kevin Conlon and Alan Butterworth of the Rats of Tobruk Pipe Band.
Scott had contacted them for lessons. He was told it would take 12 months to play a tune, but they’d give enough lessons to bluff his way through.
Before the shoot, the pipers were nervous, so Bon took them to a pub for some fortifying shots.
Afterwards, they were invited to AC/DC’s hotel for lunch, and then spent the afternoon in Bon’s room playing traditional Scottish tunes."

Yep! I saw them on the highway to hell tour, my favorite album also. Then I saw them on the Back in Black tour. The album that behind "thriller" (ick) is the number 1 selling rock album of all time!! I really liked Bon and they were going to replace him with the singer from Krokus... he sounds a lot like Bon, but Bon saw Brian sing and told the band anything happens to me get him! I can find the story it's factual. Brian was different but still damn good.
 

Good morning!!
But Viking it's afternoon!!
Yeh but I worked on guitars late into the morning. It's quiet in the shop and wife's asleep, so I not denying her time with me....OMG!
Performing fret jobs on someone else's guitar it's better to be able to concentrate.
