Well, if I already had 1 CAD M9 I might consider it, but I have
a TLM-103, and I basically need another LDC pair, which is why
I'm looking for another -103 (I'd also take another B.L.U.E.
Kiwi since I have one of those, but I don't know of anyone on
this group that has one... and also if anyone owns one, I doubt
they'd be inclined to sell it.)

I posted this about 3 years ago so please forgive if you've seen it before,
but this was one of my career hilights, getting to play with Skunk at the
Hardrock and XM radio studio's in D.C. He was attending classified meetings
between the 2 shows I did with him, but he did say he was working on "geothermal
guidence" ideas, which could basically put a missle through a bedroom window.
Got to play "Reelin in the Years" as well as "China Grove" and "Long Train"
with him. Definatly cool!
