This is really kind and a great story :D
Cologne she'll wear silver and americard, She'll drive a beetle car and beat you down at cool Canasta. And when the clothes are strewn don't be afraid of the room touch the fullness of her breast feel the love of her caress she will be your living end.

Someone shouted, the white one(Gibson ZW Bullseye Les Paul) and his assistants were like, no just the Epiphones. Zakk and the kid were looking at the Gibson and I shouted yeah, get it. Zakk says yeah and gets the Gibson for the guy. $4500.00 plus tax!!!!! Lucky little guy!!

I always hear about Zakk buying people guitars. Whenever he's in town, I'll be sure to be at the local guitar shops, waiting for him. :lol:
What a cool guy.

They've come to Moncton in the show a few times(for drug deals)....I think that big rapper in the 2nd season who went to challenge/kill JROCK for stealing his songs was from Moncton.....The show is based outta Halifax(Sunnyvale Trailor Park).....

One of my favorite TV shows ever, and the way that they talk is so similar to how people speak here in the UK. :lol:

We get it un-censored here in the UK on cable which is a lot of fun. I got the movie for Christmas and just wondered how they managed to spoil what should have been a killer film :?

I am a huge Bubbles (Mike Smith) fan, he is so funny and plays guitar in bands in your area as well.

Yeah Mike is hilarious....A few of my friends have made appearances in the show over the years..."Sirus"(the TPB arch nemesis) works at a cafe here in Moncton.....Corey is a rapper, his band plays my bar all the time...He left the show about a year or 2 ago...Said it had become too mainstream for him....Mike Smith used to play in a pop band back in the late 80's early 90's called SANDBOX...They had a hit called "Curious" that got quite a bit of airplay......Speaking of the movie, did you reconize who the owner of the strip bar was/is?

I do remember the bar owner from the gentlemans club but I didn't recognise him, who is he?
Did you get Jim and Randy at your club? they did a tour a while ago didn't they?

The bar owner was Hugh Dillon....He was the frontman for a band called "The Headstones" for years and years.....You might have heard their version of "Cemetary", an old Wilbury's tune....He also was the star of "Hard Core Logo"....Mine you this stuff is all Canadian and I'm not sure how much landed on your side of the world....

Never met Randy or Jim....

Lots of Canadian stuff makes it here, your comedy is always great. But I didn't know that last TV show you mentioned.

What I like about TPB is that they are about the same age as me. Lots of the metal references they use reflect who was around when I was in my teen's and early 20's. Bands like Helix turn up in person as do Skid Row and Rush!! Alex was even kidnapped in one show and Bubbles was on stage with Rush a few years ago.

Randy Rhoads even gets (kind of) mentioned in the last series, when Bubbles has to hide his ID. He turns up at Julians trailer humming 'Crazy Train' and the very last episode of series 7 is called 'Going off the rails on a Swayze train'.

Also and I know I am off topic here as its a Zakk thread, but i love all the Rick-ism's, they are killers :lol:
