ghost of miles Posted June 10, 2003 Report Posted June 10, 2003 I was thinking about starting this thread today anyway, and then saw Chris' topic about the old board. I really miss Joe Milazzo; I know he's active on JC and AAJ, but he's a BNBB vet whose presence would be most welcome here. Quote
jazzbo Posted June 10, 2003 Report Posted June 10, 2003 Joe's one of the smartest persons I've ever met, and a really nice person. I thought he was here occasionally, but GOM would know, and he should be here if he can. (He's busy, very busy.) I'll send him off an invitational email! Quote
Soul Stream Posted June 10, 2003 Report Posted June 10, 2003 I really miss Hardbop's recounts of his NYC club outings. I know he's not a big organ fan, maybe that's why he hasn't been by here, although it shouldn't matter who hosts the site. Wish he'd make it over this way.... Quote
Late Posted June 10, 2003 Report Posted June 10, 2003 Lon, you can send my best sentiments to Joe to stop by here in your invite! B) I miss his contributions too. Besides, he has a cool Kenny Dorham avatar that needs to be here! I also wonder if some posters from the BNBB are here now but with different handles. Is Indestructible someone else here? Some other posters from the BNBB appear to be here, but also appear to be lurkers (not meant in a negative context) rather than posters. I'd like to see more posts from Vic, Swingin' Swede, Jim R., two posters from Australia that I can't remember the handles of (argh!), and two posters from L.A. that I also can't remember the handles of (Adam was one?). This is why I needed that location information! Oh yeah: Jones — if you're reading this, post up mang. Quote
Late Posted June 10, 2003 Report Posted June 10, 2003 Also ... we need whoever was milesdavis back. Wasn't it him that had those great translations of Aric's posts into quasi-Middle English? (And did anyone save those Effron Blue Note Covers?) I miss the humor. Quote
Templejazz Posted June 10, 2003 Report Posted June 10, 2003 I wonder if Aric is actually a lurker here too.. Quote
undergroundagent Posted June 10, 2003 Report Posted June 10, 2003 Abutilon He wasn't a frequent poster, but I traded with him extensively about a year back. Good guy! even chatted with him on the phone a few times. Quote
Ed S Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 I think that most of the Southern Hemisphere contingent is either gone or MIA. I've seen kenny weir post. But I also remember a guy from NZ called sk@@ter, Steve Robertson and a couple of others a Peter Kenyon perhaps? and a Paul Christie? Quote
BruceH Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 I believe Yertle the Turtle is here under a new name, but now I can't remember the the new name. Quote
Ed S Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 Or how 'bout that shamletheactor fellow - or whatever the spelling was. What happened to that guy? Quote
Soulstation1 Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 what happened to birdistheword, real name is mark from florida? i have his email address. milesdavis was from canada ss1 Quote
Jazzmoose Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 I wish PFunk (if I'm remembering the handle right) was still around myself... Quote
kenny weir Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 Well, I'm still here representing downunder, although lurking daily more than posting these days. I definitely consider this my "home" board, but lurk on a daily basis at AAJ and JC, too. I'm fully considering using another name when (if) the BNBB reopens. Maybe Aric. Or Lou Donaldson. Or Greg. Or Music Boy. Or Softsong. So many to choose from .... Quote
Gary Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 (edited) I wish PFunk (if I'm remembering the handle right) was still around myself... i think it was Pfunkjazz - i often wonder what hapenned to him. & Reid who started an excellent thread discussing the best releases of last year . Edited June 11, 2003 by Gary Quote
Ed S Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 Garrison (aka lukrion) has also been MIA for some time I think Quote
catesta Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 Tony Jerant I have not seen him post on any of the boards. joefont posts at AAJ, but I'm not sure he has ever posted here. Let's see if I can get the spelling right. Amirbagashells. Might be somewhere, but under a new name. Quote
Jim Dye Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 I'd like to see my friend Bill Fenohr start posting again. He's a member here, but has been busy lately. Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 Yeah, where's Bill been? I've missed him! Quote
jazzbo Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 I miss Bill too, on and off the board. Catesta: I do believe that Tony is Dr. J, seen here recently. Quote
ghost of miles Posted June 11, 2003 Author Report Posted June 11, 2003 Catesta: I do believe that Tony is Dr. J, seen here recently. Hey, I saw that moniker and wondered... I remember mentioning him on this board once and eliciting several positive responses. I think Dan Gould was still in touch with him and mentioned that he perused this place from time to time. Glad he's here, if it is indeed him. Quote
catesta Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 (edited) Catesta:Â I do believe that Tony is Dr. J, seen here recently. I thought Dr. J was over here from AAJ. At AAJ I believe Dr. J is Judy Schlessinger. (sp?) Edited June 11, 2003 by catesta Quote
Noj Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 Yeah, what happened to PFunkjazz? I remember him getting in a verbal tussle with some newbie at the old board. loverofjazz is now victor at AAJ. You know, the strange dude from Utah who likes muscular ladies and posts about jazz birthdays. Quote
Brad Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 lukrion was upset with the way the old BNBB was going and wanted to see some forums cut back (e.g. the Political forum). So he can't be all too happy that it's been replicated here. Maybe that's why he hasn't been around. Hope Bill Fenohr comes back. He has a lot to offer, as does the Mule. Quote
