Don't know if you know this, but you can buy instruments in recording studios too, and also in some repetition studios. Sometimes it's cheaper than in instruments shops...

If you're looking for an instrument or any other item let me know, with the VIP I have a shopping assistant that seeks out the lowest prices no matter where they are and I'll hapilly look 'em up for you. The only exceptions are pets (though if ya want a cool wabbit like mine look for one around 60 bucks and keep in mind they eat $38 worth of lettuce every two freakin' days) and stuff at the second hand shops.

If you're looking for some good images of a punk bagpiper to use in your profile you should check out the Dropkick Murphys website. Scruffy Wallace is their current bagpiper and their old one is Spicy McHaggis. I'm sure there are plenty of pictures floating around their site.

That one's in Antiques & Collectables so I can't check those because they are unique items, but I found one for 1450 at "Down Shopping" while looking at the coats list and if you want a Jacket (Black Leather) they seem to be one of the only places in NY that has one. It must be a regionality thing as it seemed there were a lot more stores selling jackets of various types materials, colors etc. when I was in Paris. :dunno:

And I'd like to thank however swept through and gave everyone the flu the day befor our big shows =D> :-x

EDIT: I'm going to try to make a deal to get a doc to treat us so if you have the flu A. don't interact with other people B. if one of us gets cured and then you still have the flu DON'T interact with us!! I swear if I know of anyone with the flu who gives it to me because they intereact with me without noticing/caring they have the flu there will be hell to pay.

I noticed Kyle had it earlier this evenin... I didn't interact with anyone who has the flu so it was someone witht he flu interacting with me that gave it to me, probably one of these punk kids :roll: I swear between this and the quickies thing I'm cutting off all relationships except for the TBL guys :furious:

I'm hanging at my apartment set to 'Chaste' so don't come over less'n y'all want the flu.

Okay, my apartment is unlocked and I've been massaging doctors to come have mercy on us and cure us sickybuttz hanging out at my place. So if you find that you've come down with the flu come over to my place and hopefully we'll get some curing going on. :sick:

Well it seems Kyle Guillory passed the flu on to Jeb sometime in the last 12 hours. How do I know? Only two people intercted with me, and of the two, you were the only one who had the flu. Good Job. :thdn:

Does anyone know about any special items we're supposed to have since it's Valentines Day in the game? I know we got a mood boost from wearing a mask on Halloween and having fireworks on New Years Eve. Anything for VD?

I think the VD thing is the chocolates... but I asked on the Popo forum and people gave kind of a mixed response so I'm not sure if that's it or not. :dunno:

The annoying thing about the flu is that people can spread it in like the few hours before they show the "affected by: flu" thing. :doh: I'll try and get a doc to fix ole Jeb up since I messaged like four of em 8-)

I got a horoscope from my doc as well! Now I'm scared to read it!

I hope everyone enjoys their fat paychex for TPIH 8-)
