Hi Jurgen

Yeah, as Tim mentioned, Dennis Wilson was the only surfer in the band. Brian Wilson said all the surfing and car songs were really about joy. Surfing and hotrods happened to be what everyone was into where he grew up so he wrote about surfing and cars, but it was about the youthful joy and freedom. It drew me in, I wasn’t surfing…

Looking ultra groovy Jacki. So cool in those shades with the MLT cap.👍😄

Hi Jacki, hopefully we can meet up sometime, but another video chat in the meantime sounds good.😊

Tim

It was a very memorable and fun weekend for sure. It is truly special our love and passion for everything MLT brought us together in a common bond of friendship and comeraderie. It was so wonderful sharing our passion for MLT while enjoying good company, food, and great music. “..well what is your favourite MLT song…?…oh man I love…

Won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz, maybe an AMG GT Coupe, or GT 63, or AMG SL Roadster, or CLE 53, or GLB SUV…. Lisa’s vocals just ROCK!

Hi Bud

The butterscotch caramel vanilla shake was oh soooo good. The best shake I can remember having. Was definitely worth the little side trip to go there. Those greasy burgers and rings look good too. These road side diners are the best to stop at on road trips to enjoy the local fare and unique vibe than the fast food chains.

I like that quote, wise words. I had a look at Braziian Jiu Jitsu in a little more indepth, and it looks like the grappling techniques are very effective and in many MMA competitions the BJJ comes out on top. Of course a lot of it depends on the individual’s determination and prowess. I am glad Mona and Lisa are taking up a very…

Hey Bud

You were pretty incredible hosting David and myself like that, and driving us around everywhere. It was a memorable and fond memory I will keep for a long time! You are the best my friend! Thank you so much! 💕

Bud, David

When I sent the photo of us 3 at the restaurant having lunch to my wife MJ on the phone, the first thing she said was hey you guys are wearing the same shirt laughing! It was such a cool groovy meant to be coincidence.

Hey Jacki

That’s great you and Daryl got to meet up, and thanks for posting the photo. You and I had that groovy messenger video call years ago that was awesome, we definitely have to meet up one of these days in the near future. It will be awesome to meet you in person.

Here is Mona and Lisa on horses, bikes, riding a wave, cool cars, drifting…

While not a musician, Steve McQueen was my favourite actor of all time. He was a marine, race car driver, pilot, did his own stunts, rode motor cycles, horses, drove Porsches, Corvettes, Mustangs…was a black belt martial artist having studied under Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris…and strarred in some of the finest Hollywood movies, including…

Hi Jurgen

Nice topic! Brian Wilson always loved Corvettes, and his 60s hit song “Shut Down” was about his Corvette. In 1990, GM gave Brian a new production Corvette ZR1 for his years of loyalty to the Corvette.

Great to have you back Will. Wishing you all the very best with your health.

Tom

Sounds good, would be great to meet you. A planned get together is in order.

Best

Jung

David

Indeed, it was a great time my friend! I hope you can make it up to Vancouver next time with Bud. 😊 Have lots to show you around in my neck of the woods.

Will

I had no idea you were in Seattle, would have been really nice to meet you. Perhaps next time we will have an expanded meet up which would be great. I hope you are feeling better, and wish you all the best with your health.

Chris

Thanks, yes it was most memorable and fun. That Beatles place is defintely off the beaten path, and took a couple of passes in Bud’s car to find it, but we did thanks to Bud’s keen sense and know how of the city.

Tom

Thanks, maybe we can have a bigger westcoast MLT meet up, the more the merrier for sure.

Paul

Yes it was soooo groovy cool, and we were the YWF team! Young, wild, and free! 😁 At least in spirit.

Howard

Yeah it was a really great time. David joined in 2019 and since then we’ve had a great many interactions in the forum over the years, and so it was so cool to finally meet him in person. It would be so cool to meet many others here similarly. I hope we get to meet too in person one of these days. I’ve had a video messenger call…

We certainly didn’t plan on wearing the same shirt. When I met David, that was the first thing we noticed, hey we have the same shirt, and then we got to Bud’s place, and he’s wearing the same shirt, we all had a good laugh. It was like the 3 Musketeers!

Hi Jacki

I think probablity is at play here more than anything. There are far more guys at the Club than gals, and so there will be more reply comments to the guys. Also I notice members here that comment a lot on other peoples post get more comments back on their post, just because of familiarity and rapport that naturally builds, and that…

We missed you Roger. Next time, you have to be there for sure. Will reach out to you earlier.

Here are are a few more photos. On Sunday Bud and I did a hike up a mountain, incredible views, and David hiked in the snow up Mt Rainier with his family. It was a beautiful sunny weekend in Seattle.

MLT Clubbers David Herrick, Bud Jackson, and Jung Roe had a most memorable, fun and groovy meet up in Seattle this weekend. David and I talked about meeting up whenever he was out in Seattle, and he reached out a few weeks ago, and so this weekend we arranged for the 3 of us to meet up for lunch in Seattle. David flew in from North Carolina,…

In the same vein, just as Hilary Hahn played exceptional violin at 12 or 13, here is Lisa doing the same on guitar at 12 or 13 to one of my absolute favourite guitar performances of all time. If Carlos Santana wrote those perfect notes like Beethoven, Lisa did the perfect execution of those notes here with incredible feel and nuance. This…

Hi Chris

Wow Hilary Hahn is great, she is considered one of the top 10 violinists of all time in many lists. I always liked Arthur Grumiaux an thought he played Bach better than anyone, until I heard this piece by Hilary Hahn, she plays it so hauntingly beautiful, better than Arhthur or anyone else. She makes you feel every note and nuance…

That is a great analogy with Chess. That kind of genius of a chess grand master and a genius composer, perhaps the next note and the next move come from the same place.
