Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Yeah to be clear, it was a friend had sent me "Gay Bar" like YEARS ago. My memory was more clubby type track so I had no idea I'd actually heard these guys already some time back and that it's the same band/song. I'm sure at the time I just went yeah it's pretty funny, listened once, moved on.
Friend had this story also:
"My brother went to see their show in Kansas City. He was at a packed restaurant before the show and they ended up having to share a table with a couple other guys.
The other guys were pretty laid back… and eventually one of them is like 'welp I guess we better get going so we aren’t late for work.' And left. Yep. Turns out they were Electric six lol."
I remember this story now! Like he actually had to ask if she realized and when he told her she was like "that's nice" or some similar absolutely non-plused response, right?
BTW I just checked the tour itinerary. The closest to me is Wichita (?!) late Sept. Tickets are GA - TWELVE BUCKS. I am seriously considering this.

Yeah as you know I even am ok with a couple of his things (Live at Commie, er Luther College is a high point - I mean there is some real DANG acoustic guitar shit on that with Tim Reynolds) but the fact remains the dude is generally a walking anal polyp.
