That whole process was so chaotic and dragged out I gave up on it.

No luck finding much.. even the Merlin brand decals out there are the old logo.. My current label is 'melting' away.. I have a 2003 which I think is the year prior to engraved.. my luck, but I think they jacked the price for the 2004 so I may not have sprung for it anyway.

I have a Talking Heads hits album which I quite like the style of, but the name David Byrne meant nothing until I looked it up, too. But then I would probably be like that with the front members of many bands.

With apologies to David Byrne.
This ain't no FaceBook. This ain't no Twitter. This ain't no foolin' around....
No time for dislikes. No time for tagging. I ain't got time for that now....

One of Byrne's pet peeves is people calling the band "The Talking Heads." After all, you don't say "Led Zeppelin."
The feeling is reflected in the title of their first live album: "The Name of this Band is Talking Heads."
BTW...Did know that he's avid cyclist?
