Pitting Jim_B

Y’all know that he’s reading this thread with hard nipples, right?

So they rip up Jim_B’s mail
See how the mail sender frets
Reading his posts is a chore
Let’s leave him alone
Why don’t we leave him alone?
He gets so stoked up
We need to leave him alone

mmm

Damn… now I feel so broke up.

Looky who went and got himself elected Sheriff:

Sheriff John Stone

Wrong thread? Or I don’t see the connection…

It was playing on Kayaker’s comment:

Dipping his toe back in by reviving an unobjectionable thread he made in MPSIMS that mostly-died four months ago. Intended to make anyone reading it go “awww, we can’t stay mad at him.”

Discourse awards a badge for first use of an emoticon (no, really). Maybe there’s a super-secret high-level badge given out for using lots and lots of smileys.

That was really good. Who are they?

:astonished:

Guy in the middle is Josh Turner. He is awesome.

For a while there once they were really into it, I thought I was hearing Brian Wilson.

Yes, Josh Turner (youtube channel is Josh Turner Guitar).
He and those that he plays with contain an ungodly amount of talent. Since this is just a random pit thread, I assume I’m not at risk of derailing anything by posting a few other videos of his:

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve gone back and rewatched this one

Jim_B can’t play guitar as well as him.

There, it’s no longer a tangent.

This is my nauseatingly talented go-to cover song.

Or just about anything from Post Modern Jukebox (All About The Bass and Barbie Girl are particularly good).

And then there’s this masterpiece:

I think it’s something of a tradition, especially in the omnibus troll threads to enjoy relaxing sidetracks while waiting for the (inevitable) next outrage. :wink:

Well, if we’re doing “weird-but-awesome covers”, I present Orkestra Obsolete’s cover of New Order’s “Blue Monday”, played with obscure pre-1940s instruments like a banjolele, musical saw, and singing glasses. The video itself is pretty cool, too - note that there are only three musicians playing.

God I love the Dope.

And now I want a Dulcitone.

Did this thread just devolve into neat music? I will give you Jeff Beck, Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top, and the best bass player currently in the business, Tal Wilkenfeld.
