Newsgroup highlights from the past week
the news of Massey 2005 was embelished by a reference to Wayne's site which under "news "
says
"If Lightfoot's recovery continues as hoped, he plans to do a benefit concert at Hamilton Place in Hamilton, ON, with proceeds going to the McMaster Medical Center, the hospital where Lightfoot has received his life
saving treatment. At present, November 28 and 29 are under consideration, with the Good Brothers as opening act. More details
as they become available"
Derek (zippo) Kidd starterd a thread on a Martin guitar advert on the back cover of the October issue of Acoustic Guitar magazine at:-

but since Derek eschews the ability to display pictures here we cannot see this ad
"zippo"??
yes for those who have never seen it this is his account of a theory that gave him that nickname as well as Bruna's "goofy" of course and my own "Neddy" since Derek is also that rare animal an American Goon Show fan thanks to his English mother
