[HAM] Bonow on Youtube - XK-1 Workoutjoe d joedoria at hotmail.comSat Nov 17 15:28:21 CST 2007
LOL, wow. Scott, I'm 38. I can only wish I were young enough to have missed what funk means. Well...let me put it this way, there's probably some tighter "funk Bonow" out there/coming. For instance last time he came to play at the monster he was doing some deeper funk (with big, bad Mike Stone on drums and the smokin' Thadeus Turner on gtr, it was downright funkilicious). *btw: you MUST hear and meet Thadeus. You'd love him. The man (actually his entire family) is steeped in funk (and more), the real deal man. I've learned a lot in just playing with him. But don't just take my word for it, come visit on a thurs if u can.> Date: Fri, 16 Nov 2007 12:11:23 -0800> To: hammond at zeni.net> From: organfreak at donobi.net> Subject: Re: [HAM] Bonow on Youtube - XK-1 Workout> > At 11:50 AM 11/16/2007, you wrote:> > >Oh.
