Man, gently caress the golden parachute. So many awful CEOs just don't give a poo poo about what happens to their company because their millions of dollars in severance is untouchable. I feel so bad for the Gibson workers. They're going to go through a round of layoffs, benefit cuts, and pension/retirement plan raiding to "help" pay off the debt while this smug rear end can just wash his hands of everything and get paid for the privilege. Sorry for the rant, something similar just happened to my brother and I'm still mad about it. Spanish Manlove posted:https://thehardtimes.net/music/gibson-execs-consider-selling-a-few-guitars-to-get-through-rough-patch/ I have never seen an article try so hard to be so unoriginal. It's actually kind of impressive.

Eh, this line got a kick out of me "At press time, Epiphone has announced they are filing a similar, but cheaper “Chapter 10” version of bankruptcy."

My first guitar was a Norlin Les Paul Custom with a ridiculous heel in the neck. It was considered poo poo back then and now here we are.

Henry Juszkiewicz is getting paid $2.1m for a one-year translational period. That’s over 41 times an average Gibson employee’s salary. Lol

This was my first guitar, it’s stupid and cool. Sold for almost nothing because I guess everyone hated it.

It came from craigslistI tune pianos? posted:Hi. I have been really into tuning pianos lately. I grabbed a free piano from Craigslist for my friend. It was out of tune so I bought the tuning tools for it and and even though it was a bit of work, I had fun tuning it and would like to do more. So if you got a piano that is terribly out of tune, I am interested in giving it a try on tuning it. I will not expect pay for tuning, but donations are accepted, not expected. It's just something to keep up my love for fixing instruments. Hopefully another notch on my musical belt. Let me know. I may ask for some pictures of the piano to see if it's something my tuning tools will work with. But let me know what you got. Somehow I don't trust this person

The wikipedia article on piano tuning made my head spin just about all the way off so I'm a bit skeptical of how well some Craigslist hobbyist figured it out.

Billionaires using their money for cool weird fun poo poo is my jam. But he certainly has some work to do on the not being a big shithead outside of the end product of making rockets and flamethrowers. I think I just appreciate the ridiculousness of it all maybe. If you’re going to be a rich rear end in a top hat at least make it entertaining. Kilometers Davis fucked around with this message at 13:33 on May 9, 2018 |

I somehow still subscribe to Stevie T, but I think it's because I'm kinda fascinated of how deep the rabbit hole goes. He CAN have some interesting concepts SOME TIMES, but it's always presented with so many unfunny voices and "silly" faces and product placement that it turns into poo poo anyway. He's an OK guitar player, but he knows his audience and probably hams it up a little extra for them. Dines is more versatile and also plays several instruments and knows poo poo about recording and gear. I don't really think he's an rear end in a top hat, but he really looks like one. He looks and dresses like the typical stoner/bro/douche/date rapist/fratboy who everyone knows at least one of.

Steve’s faces are literally one of the few things that triggers anger in me so quickly and intensely. It’s the worst and why I don’t watch his videos. I feel the same way about kmac too
