  1. For some weird reason I read that as TRS-80. And I was like what? And then reality kicked in.
  2. Heavy. Perfect for Alembic basses.
  3. Does this mean I get to break out the Analog Audio Workstation again?
  4. I got a new digital thermometer as the last three analog ones were reading incorrectly and went in the round file. I open the box and along with the thermometer they included a pick. same thing happened at the end of last month. I bought a new tool kit to open my Mac to do the annual cleaning of the fans. And I open the kit up and O got a new pick in the deal. just how these vendors know that I play guitar is just beyond me. They must surely be watching me through the inter web. why didn’t my new guitar come with a pick when I bought it? Really, these retailers need to get with the program. on a more serious note, I just find it humorous that picks are a ubiquitous item to include for opening those slotted doors on electronics. Something I had been doing for an awfully long time.
  5. I don’t know….. but he looks to be having an intimate relationship with that there microphone.
  6. Ends are just an opportunity for new beginnings.
  7. What no gratuitous image of a beautiful woman? I’m so disappointed. 😢
  8. Well you could try attaching said penny nail with a hammer…..
  9. Thank you gents for setting this one up. Good ol’ Ozzy and Randy Rhoads
  10. True… in the 80’s I got hired into a band signed by MCA to replace the guitarist who was ousted as a condition of signing. Apparently, the previous guitarist didn’t have the requisite hair metal look. Recorded a few songs to complete the album and then nothing. Marketing spent no time on preparing a release. Didn’t even make it to pressing vinyl. That’s how I learned it was the “music business” and not an art form. Upside, is I got an amp out of the deal.
  11. I can’t pass up an opportunity to push some Iron Maiden here…..
  12. My grandmother Irene Hollingsworth used to play at the Redondo Barn. A country swing venue in Redondo Beach, California, back in the 40’s and 50’s. I’ve got the guitar she had used at the time. Family legend has it that it was given to her by Tex Williams. I’m not sure how accurate that was as the owner of the Redondo Barn went by Texas Jim Lewis. But my Dad swore it was Tex Williams.
  13. Post racing again? No couldn’t be….. Strummy failed to multi-post…..
  14. With a deep groove 🥴
  15. Explains the copier references. I spent 8 years on the technical side of xerox high volume business then crossed over to color printing system sales. Then software sales. Ended up a casualty of the Great Recession. Physical issues cropped up soon after. Kinda put an end to working a regular job. Plus the age thing. Companies don’t like to invest in folks who have gotten beyond 50 these days. So now it’s back to the passion of music. Not that I make any money at it. But it passes the time.
