How do you like that beatbuddy pedal? I put some money on that kickstarter but backed out of actually buying the pedal. I picked up an Alesis drum machine in the meantime but still thinking about that pedal or the DigiTech SDrum.
Don't own one yet, its just an option I'm considering.

And I'm pretty sure that, watching Trump, Dick Cheney curses the day he sold off his Haliburton stock before becoming VP in order to avoid a conflict of interest. Although I'd bet that, if we examined his finances since 2009 closely, we'd find that he was amply rewarded for his service to his former company.
Yeah, one thing I do try to keep in mind about Trump’s grift is that everyone who has been in an administration has profiteered. Most are able to wait to capitalize or otherwise maintain some semblance of superficial propriety but Trump is either too unrefined to pull that off or just doesn’t give a shit.
It’s everything else that is Trump — the would-be despot, the Richard Spencer domestic policy, the normalization of hatred, the assault on American democracy, the alienation of western allies and alignment with totalitarians — that makes me want him to Mr Creosote himself at one of these Wendy’s catered White House luncheons.
Now back to your regularly scheduled even bigger than the crusades BEST war...

If it really comes to blows with Iran, it will be a proxy war — and they will be the proxy. There are a lot of foreign powers that would support them in some fashion to bleed the US.

So should this be the start of Trump’s American death count resulting from killing Soleimani? No claim of being directly related, but the timing is suspicious.

Trump is what would happen if that loser drunk uncle that talks about how he’d turn the Middle East to glass if he were president became president.

Wait a minute--so we killed him while he was on a diplomatic mission?
Yep. Trump was leaning towards a measured response, but happened to be channel surfing and landed on a midnight Lethal Weapon showing.

"Questions, the obvious ones like: Is Iran really the greatest threat we face? And who's actually benefiting from this? And why are we continuing to ignore the decline of our own country in favor of jumping into another quagmire from which there is no obvious exit?

Is this really a concern? I mean, borderlandbeat was posting pics of bodies hanging from bridges and heads littering the NL town square like a decade ago, and I'm not aware of there having been a spike in spillover violence here in the US. I can see this being concerning if you have relatives in Mexico or have to travel there for business, but for the rest of us who can keep visits to Mexico constrained to meals at Enchiladas Y Mas? It seems like we have much more proximal concerns worthy of our anxiety.

Well, given the collective intelligence exhibited by Americans these days, I'm going with it being a no-shit alien invasion that everyone thinks is a bunch of fucking drones in an inverse of Orson Welles' War of the Worlds.

Thought #1: While I am horrified that Trump is in charge while this is playing out, Iraq/Iran/the ME is a problem he inherited. The only right decision was never to invade Iraq in the first place.
Thought #2: Given the number of decisions of similar scale that Trump makes flippantly on a regular basis, I wonder what problems of his origin that we'll be dealing with 2 decades from now?-

Gonna need some promo loops....and good for you.
Thanks for the encouragement and holding me accountable
. This is as good as I can do at the moment. Its the second original songlette I've recorded since getting back on the guitar, after maybe 8-9 months back playing regularly. Its also kind of my first foray into digital and modeling, going straight to macbook and using a Bias FX plugin within garageband for signal processing. I don't know wtf I am doing as far as mixing and eq, so while I like the song and am reasonably happy with my playing at this point, I'm not at all happy with the tone, mix and mastering. I don't really have a desire to build up audio-engineering skills, so not sure that will improve. Definitely not in 2020.
For these live gigs, I'm probably going to do a mix of 2/3rds covers and 1/3rd originals. At least start with that ratio and see what the reaction is. The covers will be primarily 60's/70's songs that everyone will recognize, things like "Oye Como Va", "Hotel California" and "Comfortably Numb". I'm toying with the idea of shortening the songs and making them fully instrumental. I'm much less confident singing than I am playing guitar.

Happy new years fuckers. My resolution is to pick out a tune every week.
Mine is to start playing live again regularly (last time was 20 years ago), and I have a twice a month contract with my wife to allow it (pics on xtube). I've been talking to a local pub owner I know and I got the go ahead to play there on Thursday nights whenever I want as soon as I put together a set list. It will be me with a guitar, microphone and either backing tracks or a looper + bass9 & beatbuddy pedal. Slightly terrifying, so considering going full buckethead to hide from the audience. Wish me luck.
Other goal (not really a resolution) for 2020 is to decide if I want to stick with pedals and valve amps or go full digital skynet. I have a Line6 Helix LT being delivered today that I will (hopefully) use to replace most of my pedals into the Vox AC30 for live and direct to macbook for recording. I am intrigued about the state of amp modeling w/FRFR speakers, so I want to experiment some and see if I want to go that route. For the live scenario I described where I will need to reproduce a range of instruments for an audience, just having the helix, full-range powered speakers and a looper or iphone w/backing tracks has a strong minimalists appeal to me.-

Let's not minimize Clinton's misdeeds. My view is that his conduct, both with regard to the sexual harassment (as a subordinate Lewinski's "consent" was tainted) and the perjury to the grand jury rendered him unfit to remain in office.
One need not defend Clinton to justify the actions against Trump.
I’m not trying to defend Clinton, simply to point out the paradox between the special investigator’s and opposition party’s approach to ensuring a proper investigation in his case vs Trump’s.

Because the party controlling the levers of power right now:
1. Has a constituency that is largely made up of the marginally intelligent, willfully ignorant and uninformed
2. Has a goal other than peace and prosperity for all
