Why are BP/W users more common on this board than at the beach?

[MXGratefulDiver]

Who do you think is better:

Eric Clapton or Jimi Hendrix???

Clapton ... definitely ... Jimi was great once, but he's not done much lately ...

... Bob (Grateful Diver)

 

[BigboyDan]

Clapton

(I'll bet that Scott won't be discontinuing sales of BCs any time soon, eh?)

Naw.... Clapton's version of "Little (BP &) Wing" is at least as good as Hendrix'.

 

[ScottZeagle]

Actually, when it comes to "Little (BP &) Wing", I prefer the Stevie Ray Vaughn version...

Hendrix lived hard, rocked hard, and died young.

Clapton was "god" at one point, and is still around today.

I gotta give the edge to Clapton on this one...

Well she's gliding through the seas
With a low profile that's catching on
Simple plate and webbing
And D-rings and failure points
That's all she ever thinks about
Riding with the sea.

When I'm sad, she comes to me
With a thousand smiles, she gives to me free
It's alright she says it's alright
Take anything you want from me, anything
Anything.

Fly on b/p wing,
Yeah yeah, yeah, b/p wing

Nice song, but Clapton has that one beat with his classic "BC" (sung to the tune of "Cocaine")

If you wanna hang out, you gotta think about BC.
If you wanna go down, and you don't wanna drown, BC.
W.I., W.I., W.I......BC

When your day is done, and you want to dive on, BC
If you get to fat, just let out more strap, BC
Test dive my, test dive my, test dive my....BC


Man, am I glad it's Friday!!!

is this like a parallel universe or something?

Could be, or I'm having a seizure or something :11:

Could be, or I'm having a seizure or something :11:

I think it's an effect caused by reading the jillion or so posts in this thread.

Solely because BP&W'ers are so zealously vocal!
And other gear users are not!

Chad

Wow - I go to bed for 6 hrs and it takes me an hour to catch up on this thread... teach me to sleep after work

Glad you found the thread you are responsible for Chad lol

I'm curious now why "other gear users are not?" Is it they simply are a content bunch and feel no need to "prove" the value of their gear, or have they never tried anything else and don't know if it is better or not (which some prefer jacket, some bp after trying both)...

Guess I'll have to go check the poll now and see how it's coming along - I was actually avoiding mentioning it on this thread so as to prevent "scewing" the results

Aloha guys...

P.S. now we return you to our regularly scheduled song fest'
