Might have a few this weekend. It has been ages.

Guitars?

Classic Gibson Cocktail

Mahogany and mother of pearl baby! Had the one on the right for nearly 35 years.

Still in action New Years eve.

Onions versus olives.

I've made a few working as a bartender, the curious thing is that I never made a vodka Gibson, the Gibson drinkers all wanted gin.

Oh no, please show us yours in this ridiculous one upper thread.

I believe that’s a true Gibson although I’d rather have one with good Vodka.

I’m retired from such now. Nothing left to prove. No need to. No self validation required. Just a classic drink thread.

Gibson guitars are awesome. I’ve not played in many years but love the sound.

First thing I thought of was the guitar. Never heard of the drink, guess I am not a hip Cosmopolitan type of guy

This is like a pre-1970s old school drink created around 1900 or so.

Hoot?

No Yamaha, Tama, DW or PDP?

I was a classicly trained mixologist at Bennigan's in college. A Gibson is just a Martini garnished with an onion vs an olive. To this day, I still usually have a jar of those onions in my fridge. Odd, but uniquely tasty snack.

What do you call a drummer without a girlfriend? Homeless.

Did not know that. I like a filthy ketel one martini (think Jenna Jameson filthy) with 3 blue cheese stuffed olives. Gin only goes with tonic and lime IMO.
It is hard to find a good martini at most restaurants. Normally you have to be at a high end steakhouse to get what I like.....Pappas Bros in Dallas comes to mind as my favorite. Their bartenders stuff the olives with BC fresh before every shift.
