SRL Wednesday
Tonight is an all new Spread Radio Live from my house around 7:30pm PST. I'll post and send a bulletin when it goes live exactly, but my trusty co-host Greg will be back. I have already had a bunch of questions regarding the Hello Kitty guitar. Honestly, I don't know where it came from. Carmen just brought it home from Vegas. I think if you do a simple search, it should be relatively easy to find. I plan to swap pickups and hardware and the neck and make it a fully functioning live guitar. Don't tell the Panic guys though, I'll have to gently explain to them how it's so light and happy that it's actually dark and twisted. Also, while I'm at it, I might as well explain how all our liner notes will be hand written by a little girl on unicorn stationary with every "i" and lower case "j" dotted with little hand drawn hearts.
Speaking of guitars, Daniel, a SRL listener sent in this picture of his new PRS signature modeled by his lovely girlfriend Jamie. I must say, that guitar has never looked better. I know I did some ads for PRS when they made this custom "Navarro" model, but they'll certainly sell a lot more of them if they went with this. In fact, I may just have to go out and purchase one myself. I look at this picture and I ask myself, "How did he do it? Hot girl, great guitar..." I mean I have been at this gig for over 20 years. Then it came to me... "Oh, he's a MAC user!" Yes, it's just that simple. By the way, for everyone who was online for yesterday's afternoon broadcast, we have solved the buffering issue. Of course there may still be temporary drop outs here and there, but yesterday was quite a problem. After running a series of diagnostic tests (Damn! I finally got to say that in a sentence and have it be true.) we have been able to zero in on the problem and correct it. We ended up moving the show to a different server within the Live 365 world. They have been a tremendous help and I appreciate their support along with the computer wizardry of our very own Loop. I did run the diagnostic tests, that part is true, but the reading of the results and the correcting... well, that I cannot take credit for.
P.S. Here is the code for the Spread Radio Live Banner if you wish to put it on your own site:

Although would prefer to be boogying to the pink pussy guitar - found a few places selling on line but these two look like the best value

Noone selling here in the UK though :-(
Dave - do you realise that they do one in black as well - maybe a bit less embarrassing for ya? ;-) (although personally I think pink is your colour - it brings out your damn sexy eyes) x

hiya dave! I love the Hello Kitty guitar. I had it on my avatar on the TPC boards for a while.
Fender makes them...if my memory serves me right.

here's a coincidence too..my phone broke yesterday. (as well as my TV! arghh!) so i'm getting a Hello Kitty phone for Christmas. :D little angel wings on it. is Carmen a hello Kitty fan? I went a little mad over Hello Kitty. Had to stop going to the toy shop because of it!! lmao. it's true.
Posted by: ylais at December 7, 2005 05:40 AM
Hi Dave,
how about getting Carmen to spank you with the hello kitty guitar and broadcasting the sound on SRL?
Peace & Blessings

The pink Daisy Rock guitars are actually really nice instruments! The silver and pink sparkle Stardust is on my wish list, but I dont think they make them anymore. I guess it doesnt matter anyway... my wife feels that the 7 guitars I have now is plenty.

"here's a coincidence too..my phone broke yesterday. (as well as my TV! arghh!) so i'm getting a Hello Kitty phone for Christmas. :D little angel wings on it."
Lisa - get to sharing! Where can I get the phone?!! Are we talking one with crystals here? A girl just NEEDS these accessories - the kitty can go in the Radley holder and then we have the complete pet family!
And forgot to say earlier
"I look at this picture and I ask myself, "How did he do it? Hot girl, great guitar..." I mean I have been at this gig for over 20 years"
Umm - you are Dave Navarro right? Legendary guitarist? Married to Carmen Electra? Right????
Posted by: Miffy at December 7, 2005 07:16 AM
Damn, that guitar does look good!
will try make SRL 2nite family, have a gig to go watch wit the g/f in a bit, but will try join in if im back in time
party hard

I HAVE BUT ONE QUESTION TO ASK DAVE IF YOUR A FAN OF ALL THAT IS DARK AND EVIL WHERE DOES THE MOVIE LINE COME FROM 'YA SICK LITTLE MUTANT'?
MUCH LOVE.
Posted by: Tabitha at December 7, 2005 07:50 AM
Hey -
Apparently I missed the whole Hello Kitty guitar conversation - but it's very cool (almost as cool as the white PRS). And I like the girlie liner notes idea. I say run with it.
Luckily I caught the beginning of last night's SRL, and I have to say that although the talk is always great, your music selections were really doing it for me. It hit the spot, as they say.
I gotta miss tonight's SRL, as I'll be taking a trip down memory lane with a bunch of my girls at a Depeche Mode show. So will Sue... (Hi Sue!). We're hoping to run into each other somehow. :)
Have a good one, everyone.
Posted by: Denise at December 7, 2005 08:40 AM
Did you take that picture in a mirror??? Everything is backwards....
I must say...only YOU could pull off a pink Hello Kitty guitar so nicely ;)
Happy Hump Day everybody!
Posted by: Cori at December 7, 2005 08:49 AM
I missed the whole SRL last night, the buffering was driving me nuts!!!
Glad that problem is solved...yay Loop!
anyway, I understand totally about the "Hello Kitty" being dark and twisted. maybe that's why it reminds me of the "Happy Bunny" series.
Posted by: gypsyfenix at December 7, 2005 08:51 AM
My husband asked me a couple of days ago what I wanted for Christmas, and I couldn't think of anything. Now I know. I want a Pink Pussy guitar. Just because.
Love and happy hump-day!!

Miffy, You can get the Hello Kity phone in Comet, at least there's where I saw it.

Hi Sketch!!!
Posted by: ylais at December 7, 2005 09:17 AM
I am not really here...Cuz I am RUNNING out to buy the white PRS. Am I hoping for too much to think that it might just come with her??? *sigh* oh well, a guy can dream can't he?
Posted by: Scott Williams at December 7, 2005 09:21 AM
2 sweet guitars dude! Nice one on the part of the listener...haha. Looking forward to the show tonight as it will be my last for a few days, getting knee surgery friday, so unless its on my nightstand forget about it. if anyone feels the need please send milkshakes...ha ha. (and please not the song...)
Posted by: Mike C. at December 7, 2005 09:30 AM
Dave
I know you're a busy guy but I figured you might be able to do this so I'd ask you. I'm sending a guitar to Pete D (former Porno guitar player to sign) anyway after I get it back from him I was going to see if you'd be down for signing it.
What I'm planning on doing is getting all of my favorite guitar players to sign it, draw on it, do whatever and then displaying it in my home studio.
If you're down I will send it to Indie and I will pay all shipping costs.
I figured I would run it by you to see if its cool.
6767ers hope all is well with you all and good things are happening for you this holiday season.

I'll sign your damn guitar, bitch! Why won't you take my calls?
Posted by: Lyn at December 7, 2005 10:13 AM
Nice... all you need is pink/back LV guitar strap to go with it! I have a 7 year old that'll gladly do the writing for you!
Posted by: Junebug at December 7, 2005 10:14 AM
Dave I had the pleasure of listening to you twice yesterday....THANKS! Oh yeah and your 'buddy' Chris P is online as we speak......
I hope you are feeling better, I know I am after seeing that beautiful blonde...er...I mean guitar!
Looking forward to tonight...Tracy
Posted by: Tracy from ohio at December 7, 2005 10:19 AM
hahah Lyn you can sign it as well.
you know why I won't take you calls.. hahah.
Posted by: Juanjay at December 7, 2005 10:29 AM
Giggin' with the Hello Kitty axe would be so Dave. Unfortunately, I missed SRL last night, but tonight I'm gonna be on point. Nice to see how the communal vibe that Jane's was so known for, is/has follwed over to CF, TPC & 67. It certainly help's that Dave, Steve I., Perky, and Billy Morrison are the most web accesable musician's of note. Definitely helps feed the community vibe...If the Core of CF get's their tat's, we need to come up with a special CF "fam" tattoo...any artist's worth their salt, ought to take a stab at a CF fan tat...who's in!?
Posted by: Adam at December 7, 2005 11:03 AM
Or even a 67 family tattoo would work, or both... so get to work artists!
Posted by: Adam at December 7, 2005 11:04 AM
Hello community!
Hello Dave!
I too am a fan of the guitar... leave it pink baby. Unfortunately my schedule prohibits me from listening to the SRL gigs, however, when I AM able to catch them I have found them to be HIGHLY enjoyable. Keep up the good work!
Any special plans for New Years Eve? inquiering minds want to know =)
Mucho amor, loco:

Morning D & Fam,
Thanks for the SRL fix, and the chat was fun!
Hi Denise, hope to see you at DM tonight, don't forget we'll be at O'Reilly's on 35th for dinner first if you get in early (doors open at 7).
Love,
Sue, waiting for the "big" snowstorm Friday...
Posted by: Sue at December 7, 2005 11:22 AM
Hi Dave,
Great to see you do so many things these days, especially w/ Panic Channel. Very exciting. Zoe loves the Hello Kitty git. I think it's light & twisted as well. Wanted to touch base w/ you. My career has been rocking ever since you kick started it...my band is unstopable, would love for you & Carmen to check it out. Our agent sent you a copy over at indie 103.1, the band is Looner, the record's called "the greatest weakness". Holla back when you have a moment and congratulations on everything. for rill...Angel email: looner@loonertheband.com
Posted by: Angel at December 7, 2005 11:59 AM
Hey Dave, the chick with your PRS signature looks alot like Savanna Sampson.
For a moment i thought you had finally hooked up that three way you were discussing on the Stern show.
Posted by: Six7Six7 at December 7, 2005 12:08 PM
Alright! I love Hello Kitty :) Have a purRrfect day everyone.
Posted by: AeroGem at December 7, 2005 12:12 PM
Sue and Denise have a blast at DM tonight!! I am so jealous...It will be a fantastic show can't wait to hear all about it!
Everyone else have a great Wednesday...Jezzi have any luck with your faulty dsl?? Still feeling lugubious? :)~
Love, Amber
Posted by: Ambersonian at December 7, 2005 12:47 PM
the best way to have hello kitty...on dave's body. you know i think we all have this universal vibe going on...a lady came into my work with a hello kitty purse, i have been fighting the urge to buy it ever since. i usually do not do pink, but this purse was cute. i love that all the things from my childhood have come back for my child to play with.. thundercats, care bears, rainbow bright..now if they would just bring she-ra back! ha,ha.
lostboy, lostboy...making me jealous with all this talk of miffy sitting on your lap. (j/k) besides, i would think that due to your accident yesterday that you would not be up for that kind of thing (evil grin)
Posted by: Heather at December 7, 2005 01:09 PM
Thanks so much for the banner code Dave! Fortunately, my knight in shining armor...Uncle Creepy...already hooked me up (I'm soooo impatient) but, I know everybody else will be glad to see it's up!
Thanks again! (and to you too, UC!)

Hey Dave, is there a webcast for SRL yet?
Posted by: Simon at December 7, 2005 05:10 PM
DAVE!!! It's all your fault!! Verizon technicians are coming to my house tomorrow to fix whatever it was you did!! My son says to me.."maybe we're just not MEANT to have broadband, this is attempt number two..
I will not be deterred!! It's for my son!!
jezzi(like I said, SRL is just a perk)

Just want to say thank you 67 family for helping me with things and being so SWWEET. Esp the "queens" last night:) Had a great time on chat!
Posted by: Danni at December 7, 2005 10:24 PM
LOL Heather
Unfortunately it wasn't my lap involved in the high speed zipper accident. The whole thing would have been less embarrassing for everyone if it had. But I did learn something from the whole debacle. There really is a good reason you're not supposed to run with scissors.
Still feeling the pain,
LostBoy
Jezzi
I managed to work the word lugubrious into everything I said today. My fellow co-workers were ready to toss me out of a window. That is, if they hadn't been so busy making fun of me over the above mentioned "high speed zipper accident".
Miffy
I took a nap when I got home today. Yeah I know I lied, I really do have to sleep sooner or later. I dreamt you got your pink Hello Kittie guitar for Christmas. Everyone here at 6767 was there to watch you open it. You were so excited. You were bouncing up and down, squealing with delight. You were so cute. You were only about 7 or 8 years old in the dream.
