  1. Has anyone seen the new PGA commercial with "Shooter McGavin" in it? LOL!!
  2. That's a sweet place to make some music!! I really like that view. The wife and I were looking to downsize recently and went through some misgivings about if we really wanted to do all what your talking about; packing, getting house ready to sell, doing the move, unpacking, getting settled in... We saw some properties with big buildings/sheds and more land than we have now. Like you my mind was racing about what kind of studio/guitar repair I could do in there!! In the end we realized that when we fix our present home up to sell we would fall in love with it again! So we decided to stay put and fix it up! LOL!! Good luck on the new adventure!!
  3. Happy for you. Why so long before the move?
  4. I am sorry Bit. I didn't know this small, but very important, detail. I was speaking like the drummer had no other ties to the group other than being a drummer. Knowing that changes my whole opinion. Yeah, you can program as many drum machines as you want until your blue in the face, it won't be the same. Hope the meds help him pull through the gigs. And I hoe your brownie ride goes as planed!!
  5. Thanks for the video Craig. The way he pronounced it in French was exactly how my other aunts and uncles called him. I always thought they were saying "And Ya-ss". Hearing him say the word... that was a wow moment for me!! All my cousins and I just always called him Uncle Ya-ss. Man.. the things I learn around here!!
  6. I was sent a PM that said don't tell Craig we googled anything!!
  7. How would you pronounce this word? I had an uncle with that name. He pronounced his name like this: "Ya' - ss". Like saying "Yacht" but with "es" sound instead of "ta" at the end. I have heard people pronounce it "Ig - nuss." Out of all my long years, I have never even heard of another man named Ignace.
  8. Yep, that's bland. Glad it's Finnish-ed!
  9. Hope your drummer makes it bit. Sounds like you need to get programming a drum machine. I'm with That's the bottom line. You never know bit, there maybe a young drummer that's been watching ya'll from afar and just waiting for a chance to prove himself. Until that happens the drum machine will work. Not as well as your old drummer that's for sure, but it can work. If ya'll want it to.
  10. This is a good video. He really appears to be all for Sonar being brought back out. Sure knows his way around.
  11. Yes, this is very true. Sadly I have allowed myself to loose a lot of my hard earned abilities. I am/been working to get some of them back. Well said.
  12. Did that before!! Back then we knew nothing of "line levels"!!
  13. @kennywtelejazz Wow!! I just watched that Jay Roberts video!! Unbelievable!! I had to watch that first 30 seconds of the video several times!! I have never seen that type of practice technique!! Any guitar player needs to watch that first 30 second of that video. [edit] Just watched the other video. Had no idea I have heard Howard all my life. He was just all over my fav TV shows!! Great player. Uneducated. Self taught. Playing jazz like that??!!!
  14. I played for years without any fx at all. No delay, no reverb, no comp. Then I got a Ibanez Flanger FL-9 and used that for a few years then got a Ibanez Delay, the AD-9. I bought a Kelly C4 comp that I rarely use. Today I go into a Mesa Tone Burst mostly as a clean boost that work extremely well. The Ghost Pedal does a great job as a clean boost also. IT just has a little more grit than the Tone Burst. I have a pedal board that has 4 different chorus pedal on it! I use those more than anything else (besides the Tone Burst, that stays on all the time).
  15. Alright... I know it was a long wait!! First half of clip is without pedal on. Last half has pedal on. I did play some lead on it but decided that I would just showcase the rhythm part. EZD3 and EZB were used. Also very little was done to EQ the guitar part other than HP filter roll off. Here it is:
  16. Yes Sir!! LOL!!
  17. Will watch them tomorrow when I get up. Thanks
  18. Last Friday the wife made a seafood gumbo with shrimps and crab claws!!! Mmmmm!!
  19. Yes it does. And rightly so!! They have some unconventional thoughts going on out that way!! And it gets broadcast all over everywhere!! But I also know some real good people out that way. So both coasts has it's equal share of crazies and good folks. And down here in da Bayou country, we all hunting alligators and making gumbo!! LOL! IOW, I was jk with smalls.
  20. Sorry to hear of your misfortune. Man that was not a good "good-bye" at all. Florida to Oregon? Ya'll getting kidnapped?
