Queen - Flash

I wonder if there was ever a band called "Three-Quarters Foolish?"

(That's where QuarterFlash's name came from!)

I had no idea what you were talking about.

Typical.

OK, no more Jimmy Smith for now. I've saturated myself, and time to move on.

Now, this is neither here nor there, but I had to laugh at my own expense and share my misery.

This morning I took my van in to have the A/C repaired. I told them I'd wait, and had brought a book. But they said there was no guarantee it'd be done today and I should not wait. So they gave me a ride home.

It was only after I got home that I realized my house keys were still on the keychain in the car at the dealer. So I've been sitting here for hours without access to my garage and the computer within, dozing off and sweating.

It'll be OK, I said, as long as no customers call me with some emergency.

Guess what happened. Somebody needed a crucial file from me RIGHT NOW. Installers would be getting on a plane tomorrow and needed the information RIGHT NOW. Sorry, I said. I'm, um, locked out of my office. So professional. Worse, a sizeable chunk of money was on the line, funds I've already spent on a new PA, and I wouldn't be getting paid until that installation was completed.

All's well that ends better, though. They charged me $500 for a resistor. A frickin' resistor. They assured me it was a very nice, very special resistor and I was lucky they had one in stock. I got to send off the file. I got to have a cold drink from the fridge. And if anybody's looking for me this afternoon, I'll be in the car blasting cold air at my face.

Apparently, you are on a Boss level in this game Dave!  Damn!

Pretty much! ?

So, is this a new product using the MusicGen algorithm? Because you can make use of that quite easily either using the HuggingFace demo or the Collab Notebook.

 

But, how could Mark track everything you do using those apps??! ?

I just inquired about the amp, but was told I only qualify for the Fender Dual Amateur... ?

I was at a wrap party at NRG in North Hollywood and when GS walked in, nearly everyone else left... there was only enough room available for him and his ego.

Had a similar thing happen with David Lee Roth at a certain club in West Hollywood (as detailed more than once already!).

What year was that recorded? It sounds amazing.

Couldn't agree more!  Had to play it twice while I was working (before having to leave).  

Meant to add...  If anyone else has a Fractal, any tips would be appreciated! 

My roommate just bought one today.  It's the floorboard version, but it sounds great!  I can already see that it does about 40 times what he needs (or more! ?).  He's been using a Digitech RP500 through a Roland Cube.  He's got my old Alesis MK-Ultras now and he sounds much better now (lol)!

The Digitech will be on MyList (er, I mean Craigslist ?) soon.

On the flip side, if anyone around the Portland Metro Area (or Vancouver, etc.) is looking for a nice 5 Watt Blackstar tube head with two cabs, let me know! ?

If more offices looked like that, I might go to work! ?

I'll add it to the archive I have with all your funniest work in it!  ?

Instead of linking to it (from a Discord channel), I just uploaded it to one of my domains.  Here's what it looks like!

Well, yes, I did!  Out on a walk around a local lake.  Just not sure what you mean by "nothing there" or do you NOT see the picture that I do?

Don't worry Sheens.  The sensitive topic material was only suited for prime-time TV and shouldn't be seen by those under 40 years old (do we even have anyone in here that's under 40??? ?).

Glen's is the only version I've ever heard!

She's cute so I'll ignore her misspelling. ?

So now there is nothing there or did you replace it with something else so that no one would be the wiser?

Whatcha talkin' 'bout Willis? ?
