• Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!

    The Stooges doing the garage rock version of Sun Ra's Shadow World. 🤘 Both are still waiting for the world to catch up.

    You could do a charge back with your cc company. However, that will be a miserable experience, too. Did Reverb wash their hands of the matter or are they going to try to make good?
