  1. Yes you do!! Impressive!! No, it was the SSA Office. I am now RETIRED!!!
  2. Anyone know what this is about??
  3. @craigb Man don't get me started on that I before E BS!!!
  4. Lets see.... it's a pic of a Strat? That's not an Am? That's not a real door knob? That's not real grass? Man no one if proofing this stuff!!? BTW I know it's a Mushtang
  5. Great ending there Rain. Vocals fit well with it too. I liked the video. Did you create that recently or was that with the original too?
  6. I never had that issue with other Brave installs. I just installed Brave on my Surface 9 and everything imported as expected. I know this doesn't help or solve your issue Bapu. Just passing on my experiences.
  7. These don't look bad. In fact, they look pretty damn good! And as much as I agree with everyone about Gibson BS, I would have to point out Gibby did have some great amps back in the day. And since their current business model includes making profits from products introduced well over 50+yrs ago, this makes perfect sense. And if your going to re-release amps made back then, and you already have boutique amp makers on your payroll.... As far as the amps... I don't see me going out and buying one. But I can tell you they are nice and worthy of the price. Thanks TheSteven for posting the videos. I will be looking at these some more.
  8. Zo I wouldn't mind hanging out, drinking some coffee and talk geeky with ya!! Next time you in Nola, let me know. And if I make it to your area (France?) I will look you up!!
  9. It has wifi. But won't connect to a Windows computer using wifi!! SMH.
  10. He and Zo getting together and having some Viennese Coffee!!!?
  11. Where did he go this time?
  12. I would drop Ginger Baker for Ian Paice. That was one of the best drummers ever.
  13. Yep, and that's where I find myself today. My job doesn't offer any type of flexible schedule. Nor much time to practice on my own, or even with the band. SO the caliber of musicians I found myself with were great guys, just not much interest in getting better. And when your in that environment, you just get by. Human nature gets the better of you and you take the easy way!! : )
  14. Agree 100% Agree here also. I would add that the level of musician your playing with has an effect on your playing. I was playing in a blues band. Singer was pretty good. And I thought that the drummer, bass player, and sax player were ok too. But one night the singer (who also was the rhythm guitar player) let a friend of his talk him into letting a guy come up and play a song. So the singer agreed and gave him his guitar. He told us a blues vamp in G, and then started to play and intro that shocked us all!! This guy was like you say, a monster!!! But what surprised the hell out of me was the level that the rest of the band jumped up too!! I mean we were killing it!! After the gig my wife told me that when the guy got up there and played, we were like another band. She asked "Why don't ya'll play like that all the time?!!" And I tried to explain... but it was no use. The level of musicians you play with has an effect on you. You were playing better because you knew that "great" guy was there. And he played better because he knew a "passionate" player was there!! And that's the interaction, connections that we have with each other that play/perform. Nothing like it in the world.
  15. Learned that very early on. I learned to play for the people I was paid to entertain. Not other guitar players!! LOL! I agree... but some live for that. I was never like that. I always did it for the enjoyment of it. Don't get me wrong, we were very proud of how we played. We worked hard for it too. Many hours of practice alone keeping our chops up. Many hours of practice alone learning songs. Many hours of practice together getting it all parts of the song right. Then many hours of practice getting the show right. Not to mention the hours of setup/teardowns. And trying to keep all the drunks from "helping" !! Bless their hearts, they meant well. But boy could they tangle some s**T up!!
  16. I had a TB card also. It was later though. Still had an ISA interface!! The Pinnacle! It had a Kurzweil synth on it with upgradeable ram. It was a PITA to keep running. For some reason the IRQ kept switching on it's own. Oh, and the memory address had to be set manually. But when it worked, it worked great. Excellent converters on it. And it was 20bit too!! Here is a SOS article on it when it came out.
  17. How about this model? https://www.etsy.com/listing/1467566845/one-of-a-kind-swarovski-gold-silver?click_key=9338988976a7ec406e209e5c97fd28715b52146d%3A1467566845&click_sum=3feb62be&ref=rv_more-1-10&frs=1 If you care to, watch the video in the pics. No sound, but it looks as if it's playable...
