I don't believe 'Tim Chandler' exists

I attended the Broken Records Reunion concert this past Friday night in Orange County (which rocked, by the way). Anyway, I noticed that all the Choir members were there except for Tim (Matt Slocum played bass). When I saw them in 1983 or so as Youth Choir, Tim wasn't there either.

I then thought about it and realized that on DA's Live in Anaheim 1985 DVD, that it wasn't Tim Chandler playing bass either.

So, I wonder if both The Choir and DA are using 'Tim Chandler' as a pseudonym, much in the same way that directors use the name 'Alan Smithee' when they are embarrassed of their work.

Now, I haven't yet seen the Making of MBD DVD, but I sure that if a 'Tim Chandler' shows up in there, its sure to be some two-bit, B-grade actor that the guys hired to play the role. In fact, it wouldn't surprise me if they used the same afro-wearing, mustached guy from their old promo shots.

I bet that photo is one they wish would disappear.

That picture was from the nefarious "Who Farted" photo shoot.

If you look carefully, you can tell that Ed, was standing close to the source. Chandler was looking entirely "not guilty" which usually indicates extreme guilt. Jerry "the sensitive" one was overcome, and you can tell that Terry is shouldering a lot of extra weight.

What you don't see is the next photo in the series where Chandler bursts out laughing, and Jerry falls over leaving Ed holding his hands over his mouth in an apparent "supress vomit" pose. Terry being Terry was indifferent to the whole thing.

He's cool.

I'd've thought that the entire premise of him being the same bass player for both DA and The Choir was ample proof to begin with. Whoever thought that one would be convincing was just plain just STOOPIT. Tongue

You are all just plain STOOPIT if you think Tim Chandler is only a figment of someone's imagination. Now Berger....................

Tim is one of the nicest guys I've met in a long time and I can vouch that he is real. Wink

RE: I don't believe 'Tim Chandler' exists

The Chandler in this photo is not the same purported Chandler in the MBD DVD. If this is truly Chandler, I haven't seen anyone that fits this description since the 70's.

I believe he probably would like to burn that photo since his hair don't look anything like that now...................

it's got some gray in it and is a little thinner than it used to be. Wink

It's about time you people figured this one out!! Chandler's been a figment of my imagination since I first logged onto the DAMB. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAgggxcckkkkk!!!!

That picture up top was taken sometime around 1981 when he supposedly "joined" the band. If you look closely at the photo, it's obvious that they persuaded one of the out-of-work Hudson Brothers (the .worst looking one too, by the way) to pose with them. Look at that hair!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAGGgggxxxxxk!!
