Are you on the guitar pron thread?Great day.
Wife got me a new rack for the guitars. I kind of collect, the daily players needed a new home, the "case queens" sit on the wall on display. It's cool when the wife walks into the guitar center and says she needs a guitar rack. When the clerk asks how big, she says how big do you make them. (I know softball go ahead)
New grilling and smoking stuff.
Geddy Lee's big book of bass. It is an incredible book all about his personal collection of basses. All 200 of them.
The kids entered me into the Houston rodeo chili cook off and got me a stove to do it. Never done it before, should be interesting.
Cooked beef wellington and it was awesome. Finished he night killing off the rest of the Blanton's.

Ditto LooperAre there any great sub $100 pedals y'all would recommend for a... young guy with a strat, a blues junior, and a ts-9? Who likes Stevie but probably also likes other stuff? Soon to be brother in law (who I gave a strat to last year when he was visiting and mentioned that he wanted an electric and was thinking about getting a strat and 15 minutes later I remembered that I had an extra strat literally underneath the bed he was going to sleep on in the guest room). Birthday in early Jan and he's coming down on the 1st for a week, hoping to come up with a decent gift but my tastes are all strymon and shit and maybe there's some cool stuff that would be helpful and not break the bank for a dude like him.- 1

Lately my wife has been on a dumb question kick.
1- "Why did you buy a belt?"
2- (I added Advil to the shipping list)
"Are we out of Advil?" -
I use the Planet Waves with the little sponges inside. I'm about to buy a new one and deciding between the Planet Waves that uses the packets instead of the sponges, to see how they work. Music Nomad has one with the hygrometer built in to it. May give that one a spin.

Mine room is in the basement. I have my computer there so I can do recording and also play along with music or watch lessons. I have a dehumidifier unit that runs in the summer and a whole house humidifier that runs in the winter. I can keep the basement at 50% fairly easily. If it gets too dry during the winter, I will put the acoustics in their cases with humidifiers in them.

Since I’m going to be getting back into playing electric, I would like some advice on becoming more educated and well rounded with the guitar.
My skills and theory knowledge is patchwork, built up through learning to play songs I liked by ear. I sometimes am surprised to stumble across things I know somewhat, even pretty well, but not formally. Like “Oh, appregios. I am comfortable with a few of those from song X, Y and Z” or “Oh, yeah, I know the Dorian mode from all those Santana songs.” That’s where I would be coming from.
I live in a very rural area where there is no option to take lessons. What I envision would be something comprehensive from beginner to advanced in a logical order where lessons/skills build on each other. Where I could review stuff I know well, perhaps just learning some of the terminology describing it, while focusing on the areas I haven’t been exposed to through my plucking around in the past.
Did you decide on the LP or the Godin. I used to have an acoustic/electric Godin that was hollow body but looked like a tele. It has a GREAT neck on it. I LOVED that guitar. I still can't talk about why I don't have it any longer. Horrible story that I have tried to block from my memory. I imagine that when I die, that guitar is the last thing I will ever see. I've never played a true, solid body electric of their's though.

Along Buzz's music room, I am restaking my claim on my former room. There was much gnashing of teeth and fit-throwing on the part of my wife. Wasn't pleasant, but I never ask for anything around this joint and here, but I put my foot down. Never mind that her NEVER used sewing area in the bonus room takes up twice the room and likely has as much money invested in it. One of those motherfuckers has never been turned on.....in 8 years. But enough of my bitching. I hope to reconnect everything tonight.
I have an A/B switch but I want something that handles more amps. Who posted the one that handle 4? I need to inflict some additional damage to this war.

What are you upset about? Normal SOP in my household is the toilet roll with only 2 pieces of paper on it is the only toilet paper within 50 feet of the bathroom. You are one lucky bastard!
Also what isn't show is the 'cute decorative box' on the back of the toilet. It used to never have anything in it. Just an empty box, so I stashed 2 rolls of toilet paper in there so when she runs out of the stash under the sink, I have the emergency stash. If I deploy any of the emergency rolls, I immediately go upstairs and replace from the mother ship. She knows nothing of the 2 emergency rolls. Do the same thing with house keys. She knows of one that is hidden outside but not the other one.

Why 3 soaps by the sink? And why are there Christmas lights on the mirror? The TP doesn't even register for me anymore. Just put it on yourself. At least that way, you can make sure it's on properly.
1) Soaps? Because women. I don't even think there is any soap on the Christmas tree one.
2) Lights on mirror? See answer to number 1.
What isn't shown are the tiny Christmas towels that are about 1/2 the size of a wash cloth. Useless. I usually throw a couple of them away every year, but they keep multiplying.

Last week I bought an accessory that I’ve never really had: a house with a basement. Most expensive guitar related purchase ever. Unfortunately we don’t move until April, but I cannot wait to have a place to turn the amps up. I’m definitely going to put in ear plugs and see what the Katana, Bassbreaker, and Blackstar can do.
Gonna be looking for tips on setting up a real music room at some point. Probably grab a basic drum kit just to have one. I already have a basic bass rig but I’ll likely upgrade the bass because my shitty Ibanez really sucks.FANTASTIC! Get your guitars/amps/drums set up BEFORE you wife has a chance to turn it in to 'wrapping station/holiday decoration staging area'. This is very important to the 'music room' process.
Same part of town? And we need to have drinks one day soon.

Kevin Cronin sucks. Gary Richrath did not. Cronin ruined themDO NOT include David Bowie. Listen to zingy stardust all the way through and reflect on your choice. Or maybe station to station or diamond dogs or lets dance (with SRV on guitar).
REO Speedwagon sucks ass- 2

Amy played fiddle on a song I wrote. It was a ridiculous mismatch. Quite an honor. I think she grudgingly took $50 or something.
The music world misses her (along with the rest of the world).
Just realized that was Rafael Gayol on drums in the Kelly Willis clip. Wow.

Oh mommaThat's a very DougO-ish Jazzmaster.
This popped up in my feed today. Pretty nice take on a Tele with LP Gold Top appointments:

Always been a huge Zeitgeist/Reivers fan. Especially when Kim and John trade vocals.

St. Olav's Gate is a great song, despite having to listen to Nanci Griffith sing on it.

Really shows how clean and fluid Campbell plays.

More classic Waddy. Also a very underrated vocalist:

And Waddy's Rig Rundown is pretty cool with some cool history behind his guitars.

I’ll just leave this here because A) it’s bad ass and 2) our drummer now owns the gold sparkle custom DW drum set featured in this video and it is beyond bad ass
Most probably already know this but a cool story about that song is Stevie asked Tom Petty's first wife how old she was when they met. She said, 'the age of 17" but Stevie heard "The Edge of 17"
