Put the top down on the spaceship and join Geocare (on all guitar) and me on a cruise through the cosmos. Best wishes to everyone! Auckland

A simple testimony for my eternal friend ... Frankenstein didn't play on this one, but he'll be back. Best wishes to each and every person here sharing in this music fun.

Frankenstein came over with his fretless bass, wanting to be in this contest after so much fun in the Halloween jam. I just didn't have time, but he said ''Let's do a quick greeting-card type snippet! Those are good folks at Riffworld'', and I said okay, you're right. I put some drums on and he did a few takes (he insists that Jingle Bells is a one-chord vamp!) and now we have a Frankie headshaking "Christmas-card" instead of a song (I snuck the B chord in there). He's mad at me for calling it Jiggle Bells, but that's what his head looks like when he's jamming -- big flat-ass block of head, rocking to it. So this little crap jam and our hearts say Merry Christmas to all of you and yours. We'll try to get a song done next time, and we're going to have fun listening to the real stuff from you folks!

Imagine Frankenstein, Dracula and Snow White emerging on the dance floor, in that ordrer. Frank is the beat and bass, then a flash-dance guit solo, then Spooky Dracula emerges, cape afront. He spits a quick attitude with the guit, while a reserved Frank finally kicks in with some bass. But then, beautiful Snow White tiptoes in. Frank is stilled. Drac's screams become sirens, clear. Lady wins.

A dance floor, with Frankenstein coming out first, hands at his sides, but wiggling around with the funk, head bopping in the pocket of the jam. Then mysterious Dracula comes out and does some bouncing. A shrill solo marks his emergence from behind his cape, as his fangs deploy. But then ... lovely Snow White step into the spotlight. Frank starts moving more smoothly (clean Strat), and Dracula starts to croon with longer, more balanced licks. Happy Halloween!

Got RW today! Struggling, but learning! Happy Halloween!
