From the same thread linked above:
http://www.timreynolds.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=760
quote:
Don't remember where(surprise surprise, Rew is much better at that than me)Anyway, we were staying in this hotel and next to the hotel was a BIG music store. We needed a few supplies(guitar stand, strings, new BOSS tuner, etc) and we had gotten into town the day before the gig, so we marched on over to do a little shopping. Tim became quite enamoured with this acoustic guitar there.(I know you are all gonna bum about this because I know your types, the first question out of your mouths is "WHAT KIND OF GUITAR?") Well I don't remember the make or brand or anything other than it was BEAUTIFUL! Tim playing it there in the store brought that guitar to life. It sounded so sweet. Keep in mind that was on the first electric tour I did with TR, so I had never seen him play an acoustic before. I was blown away, by Tim and by the guitar. It was pretty expensive but TR seemed to really like it. Well we decided he would think about it for a while and if he wanted it we could stop and get it after we checked out of the hotel on our way outta town. I guess the more he thought about it the more he decided he had to have that guitar. We went back the following morning to get it and we walked in, Tim picked up the guitar and within 5 seconds turned to me and said "What the fuck am I thinking? I am never gonna play acoustic again!" He hung the guitar back on the wall and as we started to walk out, Houston(TR's bass player) had decided to buy an equally beautiful acoustic bass. So he bought his bass and we left and I got this great story and memory of TR shunning the acoustic guitar. Only made funnier by the fact that less than 1 year later he called me and told me to gear up for an acoustic tour. I was like is this something YOU want to do or is someone convincing you this is what you should do? He told me that on the break after the electric tours he had rediscovered the acoustic and was feeling very moved and creative in that direction. After a long discourse on his personal rediscovery I was convinced it would be the time of my life. If he was this into it, It surely couldn't be a bad thing. I signed on for it and it has certainly been a sweet ride. Although from time to time I miss the guys and the electric stuff. I am sure, knowing Tim, that one day I will get to do the electric stuff with him again. I am patient to wait as I would much rather be doing the electric stuff with him when it is what HE wants to do. I know he gives it his all under those circumstances and it can't be anything but great if he is INTO it. I really believe that comes thru in a performance. Whether an artist is really into it or just going thru the motions. I for one would much rather see someone going for it, than just going thru the motions. Looking back at what I have just written, it may be one of the stories where you had to be there. It really was funny as hell at the TIMe, and still one of my fave TR TouR sToRies!

I think Christ was heard mumbling as he carried the cross up to Calvary....."Gotta make the doughnuts, gotta make the doughnuts!!"
That was always one of my fave commercials. I still say that when I have to do something early in the morning and I am still half asleep. |

Hey GuitarGuy, that is not necessarily a bad way to be. TR is very much like that. I can remember him on the electric tour swearing he would never pick up and acoustic guitar again and then boom 1 year later we are doing an acoustic tour. The mood just hit him. He picked up his acoustic at home one day and just felt inspired. Turn the page, TR shifts into acoustic mode for a while. I think we all go in phases like that to some degree. Variation is good. Otherwise things stagnate. I don't know how people listen to only one kind of music. That just boggles my mind. How BORING!! Anyway remind me to tell you the acoustic guitar story from the electic tour. I don't have time right now, gotta go to work.(Gotta make the DONUTS!)

That is a funny picture!!! I have to go to Dunkin Doughnuts tomorrow, as well as make a cake, to bring to work for a breakfast for a retiring co-worker. That is going to KILL me because I can't eat any of them. If I did I might as well stick them on my hips because that is where they would end up! |

"Ummm, donuts."
"You can have this one. It has purple filling. Purple's a fruit." |

How about if I apologize beforehand? This is getting complicated, perhaps I should consult a priest with this new dilemma. |

Well, let's see... the previous belief was that Jesus died for our sins. More recent developments conclude that he didn't die for our sins, but Dunkin' Donuts. So if before we weren't supposed to sin but by repenting we could escape the fiery depths of hell, then I guess that means we should actually avoid the deep fried dough, but it's ok to eat one as long as you apologize afterwards. |

So, would doing what I have done be considered sacrilige? |
