Bryan Ferry is a huge tory which is disappointing but he also has a son named Merlin Ferry who at one point played in a band named after a Pokemon (Voltorb) which is at least a little amusing. One of his other sons, Otis, is a noted fox hunting enthusiast though, so that's a shame.

I wonder if it has a centerblock or if it's a full archtop. Last option is probably more spectacular when it eventually goes.

Someone brought in a really cool instrument to my work today and asked me what kind of mic he needed for it. Of course, I asked him if I could give it a whirl. It belongs ITT because I can barely play a goddamn bass guitar, let alone a loving sitar. But it felt really cool to try.

Noise Machine posted:What mic did you recommend? Audio-Technica PRO35. You can see it clipped to the bridge in the photo. There are probably better clip-on mics out there (I'm thinking something from DPA) but it was what we had on hand, relatively cheap and he was really impressed with how it sounded.

Stupid music dorks poo poo: I know I play a dead instrument beloved by the beigest motherfuckers on the planet. I get that the entire guitar industry is only kept in existence by accountants and lawyers playing the comfortably numb solo once every three months through $80k worth of gear. But why do they feel compelled to stumble into every single online guitar space and post a million memes about getting their wife to shut up? They don't have to be a 90s sitcom dad. If they didn't spend all your time posting "jokes" about domestic violence their wives might even touch their penises again. Drives me crazy.

If you can, find a guitar social media space that is more lgbtq+. Far less of that bullshit. Sort of, like, zero poo poo like that, actually.

Using a clip on tuner at a show is the equivalent of wearing sweatpants on a date.

Since Kurt Cobain was a lefty, he wasn't able to use his (right-handed) headstock for its intended purpose, and had to perform with it in his mouth.

I was at a Van Halen concert in the late 90s and Eddie did this on stage and I was worried security was going to make him put it out. Non-smoking facility. Also my first real experience with the smell of pot being absolutely soaked into your clothes.

Not sure if it's a recent thing but a lot of places will let you smoke onstage if it's 'part of your act'. I've seen DJs performing who were their own smoke machines from chainsmoking cigarettes, and I'm pretty sure Dave Chappelle (ugh) even made a few jokes about it being 'part of his act' in one of his more recent specials. Even if it wasn't allowed, who really wants to be the security guard who tells EVH to butt out or leave?

I was working a VO session with Liev Schreiber in New York and he started smoking in the booth. There was a lot of discussion about whether we should say something before anyone asked him to stop, and that was with someone who was at nowhere near EVH's level of fame or ego, in a closed room where smoking will damage expensive equipment he doesn't own, in a city where it was illegal to smoke indoors. For the record Liev was cool about it and went out to a little courtyard stairwell to smoke after that.

Nah he was left handed, he just wrote/drew right handed after being forced to at school because he grew up in a time and place where left handedness was seen as a sign of satanic witchery.
