  1. call me shocked a chief can't handle the heat
  2. what if it's a parked semi full of adult toys per protocol
  3. so if they're gathering in a parking lot or something can someone just block the exit and be done with it?
  4. he can't handle the heat
  5. Did they argue he'd compliment putin?
  6. OK, I think we're on the same page. I've read a couple of Caros books about LBJ but haven't gotten to the vietnam ones yet. I agree that's what takes him down I'm just not informed enough to know how low it should pull him but I agree that it's fair that it does.
  7. this seems like the reasoning for increasing LBJ. I think his civil rights stuff was not what was popular when he did it.
  8. With the exception of the trumper thing you might be describing Whitmore Lake. I lived there for a couple years and it was awesome. That was before trump though
  9. I hear yah, I definitely don't have the patience for it. I tried to do recording for quite a while a number of years ago and it was never a source of satisfaction, it was just another source of dissatisfaction b/c I never got it sounding as good as I wished. I think my buddy in another on/off band I'm in has that Tascam 2488. He pulls some really great recordings in his room with it, he doesn't have super hot mics or crazy mic pre's or anything like that. Last week he started an apprenticeship with an engineer in Detroit. Looking forward to seeing how good he gets, he's looking to career switch to this. I think it would be a difficult way to earn a living.
  10. rand paul woulda crushed it as president right now
  11. The other thing the engineer did last time that was hilarious...... our singer was like, that chorus would sound great with hand claps in that part. Engineer goes into a different project and copies a hand clap, then pastes it into the chorus in perfectly in line with the snare drum. LMAO I was involved in recording hand claps once. It's a complete disaster. It really doesn't sound good unless you have multiple people clapping. Then, when you have multiple people clapping one of them is me and I don't have rhythm so I'm the stray 1 hand clap hahaha
  12. Studio has evolved in such crazy ways - do you do much editing Biff? One thing that still completely blows my mind is how they'll have me do say 5 takes of a solo. Then, with what seems like a quick mouse drag but is defiitely more than that, the producer can create one super-solo from the best parts of those 5 takes. And you totally cannot tell that it happened. Never really have to rip a perfect take. It's really something.
  13. that's awesome dude. I'm not a bassist either but what I always hear from them is you gotta do better than just playing the guitar on the bass so if you did that you're golden as a bassist man! haha! Now you just gotta learn to play both guitar and bass at the same time
  14. Back into the recording studio on Saturday..... one of my favorite things to do associated with playing guitar!!!
  15. nows when you go clear out your twitter feed of everyone who said Russia wasn't going to invade.
  16. lol @ siding with the commies to own the libs
  17. CNN just started a series on LBJ. They slotted Obama right ahead of LBJ which on its face strikes me as a tad not right. I think the next few episodes of the LBJ series are going to be about Vietnam which may have me lowering LBJ, I'll admit I know not much of it.
  18. https://www.c-span.org/presidentsurvey2021/?page=overall C-Span's survey of historians Presidential Rankings. Obama cracked the top 10. Trump in bottom 4.
  19. I know a shitload of people who used to play guitar in bands around Detroit that turned to synths and stuff over the last dozen or so years. I personally don't think I've given synths enough time. I love how they sound (sometimes) and I used to own a Micro Korg a few years ago.... I messed around with it for like 3 hours and was it didn't click so I gave up. Stupid lack of persistence from an instrument player. I know it will take longer than that! I'm just not much of a knob turner, I don't like tweaking knobs on pedals and amps in guitar either, so it's probably just me. One thing I've wondered.... and maybe it's not really an issue. Let's say you got something super sweet going. It rocks the shit out of those 7506s. Is it easy to reproduce it "exactly" a couple days later when you're looking at turning nobs at such fine frequencies and shit? (I put exactly in quotes as I realize I don't reproduce my guitar parts exactly every time).
  20. Alito said in 2010 that couldn't happen though and he's a good faith jurist doing good faith stuff
  21. thats bad ass! I also spot sony mdr 7506s. Good choice!
  22. imagine thinking MAGA are the cool kids
  23. You seem to be suggesting that the 1986 White House Press Corp and the Reagan Whitehouse aren't kids. I'll let you fight that battle on your own, usually agree but here we don't 😄
  24. That Ron watkins is Q is the worst kept secret ever
