He became too busy to have any input here.

Much missed by many, me included. No one was able to put a fool in their place like he could - for that and his vast musical knowledge the forum is a poorer place for his absence.

Thanks. Good to know he's OK.

I wonder how Muscles is doing...

Funny you say that. I dared to send Muscles a PM a few months ago as I heard a song by his old band Majesty Crush - 'Uma' - which is absolutely fantastic. I thought it deserved a bit of praise.

Took him an age to get back to me but when he did he sounded cheerful enough - grateful for my praise - and said he was working on a new record called (wait for it) 'Hitler Youth'.

Ha ha, he's a character! His music was good, too.
I noticed recently that a band called PS I Love You has been gathering critical attention but was disappointed when I found out it was two guys from Canada and not him.

He called Steppenwolf "Germans" although he of course knew they were Canadienne..

Mussels MAY very well Bee bOTH (!!!) "two guys from KaNNada" and more..

Again a funny coincidence - he said he had come across a band with that name and that was what inspired him to start making music again!

I think this ends the search for Mussels...

actually, no..
just an admirer of his (and poor copycat)

I have been appledelphy and half a dozen other accounts through the years though.. keep forgetting to export passwords etc when switching computers every two years or so.

btw... Does anyone remember when this msg board started? (after arista and spz mailing lists, before " jan1970" and ".de")

The blueish pages - pretty sure LICD was the last album but I also think it had been out for a while. You could sort the member list by join date back then and I remember being only a day after the first hundred members.. but i can´t recall what account or what year it was.. late 2001 perhaps? more than ten years anyway.

Will the board logo change for this record? A huh? instead of the plus sign/cross?
