When I saw they had a cheap Firebird X I was intrigued but of course they didn't put Firebird pickups on it.

In the same few months I saw The Melvins and Dino, but both were blown away by the loudest concert I've ever heard: The K--Pop band BTS.

Note that the band wasn't loud, it was the goddamn arena full of screaming girls.

Rape (forcible) or rape (statutory). Different numbers as this is the end of the innocence.

I'm kind of annoyed at this because if you follow through all the production youtube masterclass uber producer make money money do this and they all tell you to use the swing knob so your music doesn't sound like a loving robot.

Swing/humanize doesn�t intentionally change tempo throughout the song, which is the point he FiNALLY gets to near the blend.

Can you imagine being the poor bastard who had to try and summarise their career in a BBC friendly obituary??

"Well, first s/he started off as a performance artist who dabbled in live sex acts and onstage violence in bleak industrial North England, helped invent industrial music, tried to turn he/r audience into a paramilitary cult, got heralded as a destroyer of civilisation, and finally sued Rick Rubin for a million dollars when his house burned down. Then things got REALLY weird... Also technically s/he kind of died back in 2007, but really just became a sort of multidimensional being for a bit. It's complicated."

And didn�t mention Roman P. Nuts I tell ya.

Les Paul�s aren�t the ones known to dive that�d be the svelte SG. Please update this not-bad joke accordingly. Heh

I had an SG with the robotuners for a while. Was kinda fun for doing one-man Sonic Youth since it held a few different tunings, had to use a massive bass strap to keep the neck from diving or sliding around. Sold it after I got bored with it, and wasn't crazy enough about the burstbucker pickups to keep it, and not crazy enough about the rest of it to replace the pickups.

After buying my first house I stripped the years of gloppy landlord white paint off to get to the gorgeous old growth maple underneath.

After I finished proudly I told my dad on the phone, who then paused a long, long time before asking if I did a lead test first. Oops.

I wish I could remember which goon made the comparison, but someone compared humbuckers to an angry muscle guy and the tele pickups to a thin meth-hopped dude with a stilleto. Both are aggresive, just in different ways.

If anyone knows, please link. I always think about it when I see P90's.

And if you are lucky enough to have or hear somebody aggressively play a 12-string, Jangle can be really powerful and painful. In a GREAT way.

Aha, when the video for Longview came out my coffee table looked just like the one in the video.

I grew up became a dad, got a real job. Coffee table was nice, with coasters, magazines, a little Totoro vase.

Now my kids are in college and my coffee table looks just like the one from the Longview video.

Same kind of deal last time I saw Dinosaur Jr - I was up high enough that I could see the other guitar player pacing around behind all the amps away from the rest of the band.

Was it the guitar tech or somebody else?

When I saw them last (~2019) the guitar tech played some parts occasionally, but there was NOT anyplace to hide and they were open about it. They actually brought the guitar and drum tech on stage to play with the band for one song, which was pretty cool.

Seeing Lou Barlow play was an epiphany. I wanna thank whoever told me to stand by the right side of the stage so I could hear his amps over house mix, which had bass a little low (unsurprisingly).

There should be a Barlow Zone like the hippies had a Lesh Zone where each venue is mapped to hear the bass the best. It definitely makes a difference to hear him play and not just feel it because J's guitar is so goddamn loud.

Even though I've hosed around with guitars and basses in my life (I'm terrible), and occasionally tried Lemmy style, I really didn't understand what Lou was doing until I saw him. Then again I didn't start listening to Dino until like ~7 years ago (no, I can't explain this).

The Aerosmith table is GREAT, it got me into pinball as an adult. I was bummed when they replaced it with Metallica; playing to Battery is great, but the table wasn�t nearly as interesting.

Next time I�m in NYC I�ve gotta play the one-off A Place To Bury Strangers table that has a smoke machine.
