My iPad is not playing well with the forum. I think it is a sign
More narcissism issues perhaps? Try it again with a wePad! 😆

Jimmy Page would not come near the edge of the stage.
Guitarists don't talk to bass players unless it's to yell at them for being off-beat. 😁
(Also, he's a smart guy and wouldn't want to accidentally fall off the stage. 😜)

How quickly this thread devolved.
Anti-Darwinism is a thing in these forums. 😜

I noticed that the Pink Floyd with Korn was a bit undercooked and would have preferred the Hot Tuna. I'm also surprised that nobody wanted Cream on their Peaches and Herb.

Interesting article over at SlashFilm.com on the various reasons why its much harder to understand dialog in more recent pictures than movies from 10-20 years ago. It turns out its not necessarily because we are getting older and our hearing is going bad. Part of the problem is actually an 'artistic decision' that makes some dialog purposely hard to hear, some of it deals with the actors themselves. Another aspect is lack of respect for the sound crews allowing them to get mics in the proper places, along with the idea that "we'll fix it in the mix" later. Technology now allows movies to have hundreds of tracks, and mixing for a theater is different from a DVD release, which is different from streaming. All in all a good read, with some of the issues being the same things we have seen in music production over the years.

There's another issue that truly degrades any viewing experience (besides injecting BS political agendas into EVERYTHING). They speak in low-educated chat-speech!
My roommate's currently watching some series that supposed to take place back in the late 1,700's (I believe), yet some of the "dialog" includes sentences similar to "I know! Like, what we do Bro?"

I believe we gone down this road before! My favorite follow-up to that Bowie song (and one I actually like better!). 🙂

Well it won't be the drummer as they never use charts 😆
It's a bass player, but working his day-job as a pizza delivery boy (and failing!). 😁

Yikes! Strummy with a "Video Unavailable" three-fer! 😮
Since the last one (the Stranglers) IS apparently available, I won't put replacement links here. Weird though!

I have Kompletely removed it. 😁

Because my parents used my tender age as an excuse, I lost the chance to see the Beatles in 1965...
I think the first rock concert I saw was Bachman-Turner Overdrive at Knott's Berry Farm in 1973.

Probably a singer. Doesn't have the right key and doesn't know when to come in! 😁

I remember going to meet one of the members from another forum when his band was playing near where I live. It just happened to be my birthday, but that's also meant it was right before Christmas so people had a lot of other things to do apparently! For their entire first and second sets, I was the only person there! To their credit, they played as if the house was full (something I found out later was the usual for them). It made for a killer birthday! 🥳👍
Oh, and during their third (and final) set, I was joined by someone who probably was a homeless person who sat in the back playing a pair of drumsticks on his legs the whole time - lol! 😆

Just to tout Backblaze again... You can get unlimited storage AND unlimited versions AND it's kept indefinitely. I'm currently paying the Princely sum of $9/month for all of this.
Oh, and did I mention that they will use ALL the bandwidth you have available? I believe I did. That means almost 1.5 GB every three seconds with Backblaze (we have 500 Mbps currently), yet Carbonite maxes out at 1.5 GB every HOUR!
Advantages over keeping a local copy (which is also a good idea to do ALSO, not instead of): It's in the Cloud, redundantly stored and backed up, accessible from anywhere that you have Internet access. It doesn't become useless should anything happen to your physical drives (theft, flood, fire, failure, etc.). Just sayin'... 😉
Here's that link again that gets us both a free month should you want to check them out! https://secure.backblaze.com/r/02xo4h

Does that make THIS a bass too? 😁
