Piezo and a midi pickup with separate out puts for each set of pickups.

Love to sell my lovely Crate by SEO gaming the search with every amp brand including obscure boutique brands. I’ve been looking for Jim Kelley amps and this rear end in a top hat’s posts keep coming up. I know this is hardly new but it’s so weird that a Crate guy would even know who that is.

I know people do this all the time but Jim Kelley isn’t a brand anyone has ever heard of outside like a handful of weirdos.

I still contend Cream is the only good thing Clapton was ever involved in, and he was the least talented dude in the band.

I dunno, I liked Derek and the Dominoes' Layla but gave zero fucks about anything else they made. It was good as a one-off at least.

Speaking of Clapton, I have a friend who works at a well-known... gentlemen's establishment. We asked him once what's the worst song a dancer chose for her act. Without a second of hesitation he replied "Tears in Heaven". I can only wonder if the act included her falling to the floor at the end.

Reading that article, it says that it was a janitor who left the window open, and he was 3 years sober when it happened. So maybe he was an rear end in a top hat, but it sounds like his son's death had nothing to do with him being negligent.
All that said, I didn't know the exact details before, but knew what the song was about, and it chokes me up every time.

Also, regarding the anti-lockdown concert, LOL.

Do we have any foreigners in the audience tonight? If so, please put up your hands … So where are you? Well wherever you all are, I think you should all just leave. Not just leave the hall, leave our country … I don’t want you here, in the room or in my country. Listen to me, man! I think we should send them all back. Stop Britain from becoming a black colony. Get the foreigners out. Get the w*gs out. Get the c**ns out. Keep Britain white … The black w*gs and c**ns and Arabs and f*cking Jamaicans don’t belong here, we don’t want them here. This is England, this is a white country, we don’t want any black w*gs and c**ns living here. We need to make clear to them they are not welcome. England is for white people, man … This is Great Britain, a white country, what is happening to us, for f*ck’s sake? … Throw the w*gs out! Keep Britain white!

That cuts out the Enoch Powell poo poo, but in 2007 he walked it back a bit to say that while it was obviously the drugs making him racist he still thought Powell had some good points. No comment on whether that referred to the 'rivers of blood'.

I'm pretty sure I've done this exact same rant in either this or the old SMS Mk I thread too tbh. I'm not obsessed with Clapton or anything, I just know some of his family and he's never come across as anything but a dick. Also his solo career sucks and he was the least interesting heroin addict in Cream.

Good lord what an awful dude. Being that it was 40 years ago and people change maybe he isn't like that, but that was one hell of a rant so he probably still thinks it. Also huge lol for him being a racist and making a living off playing black music.

that was how he tried to walk it back. doing an album with BB King and obsessing over Robert Johnson doesn't really prevent you from saying crazy racist poo poo, apparently.

I read his autobiography years ago. It’s basically him going back and forth between rehab, Pattie Boyd and NY for 20 years, then marrying a 22 year old at the end.

I’m not the only person who kinda regrets reading it. He comes across as a bit of an rear end in a top hat even when he’s able to spin stuff. It reminded me of Bill Clinton’s autobio in that the stuff where he obviously is being a scumbag is like 4 pages overall.
