So apparently open-reel tape is making a big comeback as the idiot's- I mean, audiophile's choice listening medium. I have some reels of 1/4" tape from various manufacturers laying around; where would be my best bet to make some coin off of it? A part of me does want to hold onto the tapes in case I ever acquire a tape machine to track some waaaaarm drum busses, but I also like money.

The headphone out on most new Macs doubles as an optical S/P DIF output, is that what you mean? The 'premium digital cables' thing will never stop being hilarious. A friend of mine worked for Future Shop years ago and he was ashamed at how they'd make him upsell people on Monster cables for every application.

Does anyone have that GIF of the jazz or prog bassist soloing with the drummer and his solo face gets funnier as he moves up the fretboard?

Yes! Thanks, I wanted to show that to a friend. Who is that bassist, BTW?

Pretty much spot on. https://twitter.com/mick_gordon/status/733106755564003328?lang=en For those too lazy to look up the tune, here. Someone remarked earlier ITT that "this is the correct way to use a nine-string guitar." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHRuTYtSbJQ Mister Speaker fucked around with this message at 22:18 on Mar 26, 2017 |

EDIT: Prog rock pagesnipe, since someone mentioned Bozzio last page: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TaL9JhFSKAk Bozzio has quite possibly the most ostentatious drum kit in existence... I had my doubts that it was anything but dick-waving until I saw him play it. The man deserves that drum kit. The Muppets On PCP posted:that's the problem with pretty much all prog stuff Yeah, I think most of the complaints levelled against DT are just as applicable to any other prog rock/metal band you can name. For me, I have similar feelings about 'math rock' that a lot of people seem to about prog: It's so technical and fast that there's no soul anymore... At least some prog bands have actually-groovy riffs - even if they're over after eight bars. Hella and Battles and stuff is just... way too masturbatory for me. I also agree with the last page or so of DT-bashing but I am unashamed to say I'm still a fan... of a few of their albums. I saw them at Massey Hall in 2010 and they did Octavarium, front-to-back, flawlessly. Of course the audience was all jorts-clad neckbeards on their knees in front of the seats, throwing up the horns and waving their tongues around at Petrucci. Masturbatory solos, Bruce-Dickinson-lite vocals and Portnoy sneaking in lyrics about alcoholism aside, they had some iconic releases. Scenes From A Memory really rekindled my love for drumming; I taught myself basically the whole album (except The Dance of Eternity gently caress that song). But I think their real biggest gem is the back half of A Change Of Seasons, which is just a live recording of a medley of awesome covers. Their cover of Love Lies Bleeding kicks the poo poo out of the original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xd16fhsVYHE Mister Speaker fucked around with this message at 22:08 on May 13, 2017 |

Are micro-drumkits, cajons and percussion kits Stupid Music poo poo? I've been inkling to play drums lately and L&M is doing their Attic Sale next weekend; there's a pretty good deal on some of these that I might pick up alongside a 6" LP micro-snare... which got me thinking about getting a cajon and a pedal for it... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9JXvSGrq-c
