Charvel Dan, where are you?

His departure shook every member to their very core. I remember when the entirety of rigtalk was in deep mourning over Charvel Dans disappearance. Wow, that was so deep and so very sad. Just, poof, and he was gone.

I remember that he briefly returned, cleverly disguising himself with a new user name.and he had everyone fooled, but then once again, poof, he was gone, and with him, the heart and soul of rigtalk as well. I think we can accurately pinpoint that as the turning point of rigtalk, when things seemingly started to drift in the wrong direction.

What happened to that guy? He was a true original, of the most bizarre kind. Never was there a devotee to Dave Friedman like Charvel Dan. He was shouting to the heavens about the magical mysteries of Dave’s circuits, and the tones that would summon the hottest women on earth. Charvel Dan explained it once like a snake charmer, except when you played a Friedman, it was beautiful women that responded rather than a venomous snake.

What about his encyclopedic knowledge of anything guitar or amp related?

His seemingly never ending enthusiasm for good natured insults, except when he crossed the line, which did seem to happen pretty often? What happened to all those hilarious pictures people used to make with the head and face of Charvel Dan attached? Damn, I miss that guy and his childlike mischief. There wasn’t much funnier than the misadventures of Charvel Dan.

Charvel Dan, where are you? Are you lurking under a different name? Show yourself! I know you are here!
 
He hasn't been posting over there for like a year. Must have finally just have had enough.
 
He’s on the Marshall Forum. Go over there if you’d like to talk to him. We really don’t need him here

There was a whole thread over on GGA dedicated to those pics. Pretty hilarious. I'm going to go hunt.

"I don't let peoples opinion of me rent space in my head, its none of my bidness."- Charveldan


Looked. Sadly most stuff was posted using Photofuckit so all the good stuff is gone. Maybe someone has some of the originals. This pretty much sums it up...

If you really miss those flames for pages and pages, it mean you have too much free time in your hands :D
 
I think I smell some Sarcasm.....

:eek:

Indeed sir, thought maybe we could get a good laugh out of it after the dreadful threads about guys getting scammed on reverb or the partial refund scam. Need a little laughter. What’s better than a funny old Charvel Dan story for a good laugh. His undying love and devotion to Dave was funny.

Yep, once I started reading your OP I let out a laugh...ole Danny boy was good for a laugh or 20. I remember the posts where he would spout off about an amp, that he had NO experience ever with...none.
 
Legend has it, that if you dare say “Charvel Dan” three times, he’ll mysteriously appear, and gargle Dave Friedman’s balls.
