    Phil Leash, bass player for the Grateful Dead for their 30 year long rampage.
    And that's gotta be enough reason to wander out to the back paddock looking for shrooms, come back, some beer for mellowness and play some music loud.
    Great bass player, Jerry might take the song out into the universe but when it was time to come back Phil would be there underneath laying down a safe place to land.

    Thanks Hilly.
    I reckon your brothers undertakers holding paddock comment is a ripper, I'll probably steal it and use it.
    And do you feel that the four winds have blown you safely home again to King Island?

    It happened quickly and without any forward planning so yeah mate, something was at play.

    Boxing memories died today
    Fool me once ,shame on you, Fool me twice...Nostalgia and boxing. I watched the Ali v Holmes fight many years ago wishing the legend of "the greatest" would shine.What a disaster! Again in 2024 Jake Paul v "Iron Mike" Tyson. Iron Mike was the greatest of his era way back when mobile phones weren't a thing and when computers had a green screen. Jake Paul at 27 years old fought "rusty" Mike pushing 60 and the sparring match went the distance. What was I thinking? That the 20 year old killing machine of the 1980's would be immune from father time?Yes Mike, you were a legend and well done for getting a big payout. JP has the chance now to challenge a real/current heavyweight because of the worldwide interest in watching him lose! Does he have the courage to become a real heavyweight boxer by beating a real-time contender or is he just a very successful promoter who will continue to exploit the safe and very lucrative option?I think the latter.

    I agree fully, and thankfully resisted the temptation to tune in knowing it would be nothing more than showbiz entertainment promotion. I think that boxing as a sport suffers credibility with some very questionable score cards shocking both fans and fighters.

    Old or not a single right hook from him would ruin your Xmas but.

    my take, round 1 and 2, 58 yoears dancing as he won both rounds, from round 3 on he walked, I never seen hin pull a punch, even if he missed, he still threw it, take backwards steps, his entire career he would attack in close and be devastating with a left hook or an overhand right, even when he didn't throw the punch, Paul was flinching

    all the lead up video of Tyson in the gym had a (albeit a 58 year old man) knocking the heck out of the bag and sparing partners, nothing like the actual fight

    it was purely a special for Paul, if it was not scripted, I thing the old man would have mopped the floor with him
