Seriously dude -- you need to use some punctuation when you type if you want to have your posts read. I'm sure I'm not the only one who gets about a line or so into your posts and says "What the heck? -- Forget it."

:freak:

i saw the caveman and thought punctuation hadnot been invented yet.

woooh ,,the strobe lights take it to a whole new level. Not sure if Im that far gone.

I knew somebody would post that picture!!

Yuck is all I can say....

The paint is cool, but the strobe too much for me :)

I think it's RAD. It's just missing the smoke, pyrotechnics and Gene Simmons!
Is that a Marshall stack in the background?

With that pic, I would think his background muzak of choice would be more inline from the DISCO era. Strobes and bright colors abound, everyone wears white t-shirts so they can be seen. :freak:


:devil: rr

Bring me a bucket.

Cue the Pink Floyd music.

:wave: :woohoo: :wave: Here comes the 70s again. Ya gotta love it!!!

Slot-a-dellic Power :cool:

This is what I did on mine; a little less retro and still kinda functional:

That is crazy cool. I am guessing that a crat store may have neon tape that will work, anyone know?

Cool, you can also use the neon stripes used for cars with 12volt power ( white green and blue ).

Reminds me of the movie "Tron" from back in the eighties.

It also reminds me of this.....

I wasn't there when they took the shot; but knowing the owner it would have been death metal.

As an update, his track has been attacked by whiteants, and is in a sorry state at the moment :(

Do those ants glow under a black light?
