Got notice that it's out. My download version is available today. Pumped to get a chance to spin it this weekend.

I think this may play a part in why I've been gravitating towards the proggier side with modern rock and metal. Most prog bands don't get stuck in that EVERYTHING AT TWELVE ALL THE TIME ALWAYS BRICKIT! ARGH! So you still get the modern slick production, but there's space, there's some air...

I'm a variety guy. I can love an old-school album where it sounds like the guitars are huge, fat, with plenty of room in them, but I can also dig a precise, everything in its place mix where ever note slams with complete precision. Really just depends on the band, the songs, the riffs, and the...

If it goes like most things involving Trump, it'll be "get off the pot, then shit." And we'll all end up wading through the resulting mess, holding our noses and trying to pretend nothing happened.

It's a fine line for me. Like, for instance, I absolutely refused to keep going on Succession because there was ZERO entertainment value. It was just abysmal people doing abysmal things over and over to each other. Somehow, White Lotus took the same premise and made it, well, I don't want to say...

It tends to be a signal to folks sick of ADHD everything that this may be a slow burn but it should pay off. It's also a signal to the ADHD crowd that they'll probably not be able to stand it because it won't be just flashing lights and constant jump screams.

When Youtubers go drama-lama I tend to click away, so I've probably missed all sorts of, ah, um, what's the word? 'Entertainment?'

Youtubers bitch-fighting? Have we created a new circle of hell I was unaware of?

Both seasons of White Lotus are just excellent viewing. Like you say, horrible people, but hugely entertaining.

I read ya. Knowing what Hollywood does with anything, if they made sequels to Nobody, they'd lose the charm by the third, maybe the second, and it'd just turn into 2 Fast 2 Furious 2 Kill-Everybody and forget the little bit of humor that made it worth watching to begin with. I miss having this...

Harlots was great when it was running. They went a little weird with the last season or so, but what a great premise to run with. Sex & The City won't ever fly for me. I can't get over my hate of Sarah Jessica Parker. It's probably not rational, but I'm old enough to be allowed my "eccentricities."

My wife's only complaint about Bridgerton is the almost complete lack of sexuality. "Where is all the sex everybody says this show is full of?" was actually asked by her at the end of the last episode we watched, where the main girl loses her virginity to the duke. That was probably the most...

We watched Nobody again over the weekend. Man, do I love that movie. I'm a huge fan of the somewhat humorous takes on action, and this one nailed the tone. From the lounge-singing mobbed up Russian to the retirement home bad-ass dad, this movie was just fun from beginning to end. I'd love to...

Ain't it funny how stuff can explode when it falls on the floor? I have a bag of special baker's dried milk I use for making bread and bread-like products (muffins, cakes, etc). Dropped it with it opened once and it hit the floor flat, but that powder was like a cloud of noxious milk gas flying...

LOL. And to think I gave my Bad Monkey away to a bro who was in need. Now, if they can just do a couple more videos. Let's see what my stash has extras of here. 40th Anniversary SD-1? Decimator pedals. Line 6 Uber Metal. Hmm.

For just over a hundred bucks for a six string bass with a decent neck? It's a heck of a place to start. I wouldn't recommend them for a beginner, because it's definitely gonna need some work to be its best, but if you dig futzing with setups, it's probably worth the price of admission.

Started some new shows: Bridgerton: What a shitty nighttime soap opera about "ladies" before women's rights would be if it were written by twelve year old girls. Absolute dogshit drama. DNW, but the wife seems to enjoy it. Altered Carbon: This one I dig. Lots of mind-fuckery trying to get a...

Thanks, guys. Yeah, the Shredmaster does tend to get dark. More gain seems to equal more bass, so a boost is almost a must if you aren't going for "mix dominating lead." One of those Glarry GiB6 things in natural finish. It's got some pretty glaring issues right out of the box, but I enjoy...

Made a quick little clip of it this afternoon just to see what's what in a mix. This is my Dave Davidson Warrior into a Keeley SD-1, boosting the Shredmaster, into the interface and using the Kazrog 5150 clean channel, with the mesa os 4x12 IR. Also the first thing I've recorded with my new...

My only must is it can intonate correctly. That's it. I've played everything (string-wise) from violin to the double-bass to acoustic guitar to whatever. So six, seven, eight, nine strings, 24.75, 25.5, 28, 29, 30, 34, 35, 38, whatever. Not to say I can play everything on every scale, but I'm...
