disaster!

Sign in to disble this ad
ok so for a year now i've ALWAYS practised in my backyard bondo/resto shop,(big movement here to downsize to a shop at home since running a biz downtown means you MUST charge retail or`can't touch it since i won't make anything working on it' and the `insurance repair' work pretty much demands employees/overhead from he!!),,yaddayadda>

so anyway,,i get a shot at bringing my amp in the house,wife is off babysitting grand kids at THEIR house instead of here,,wow! bad idea!(we have 4 dogs all brought home when our 3 kids moved out/in/out/in/in/out,get the picture? they are OUR dogs now) but we love em!,i have one dog trying to dig into the couch one hiding under the kitchen table one doing circles in the middle of the living room and the other=?wellll idunno where he ran off to?,plus the whole house is uh?=fuzzy! stuff vibrating all over,tone isn't THERE on my bass since i can't turn it ON!,no pedals even employed and i feel bad for the animals as well,SHEEEE!,and thus=I'M NOT ENJOYING IT!

dang! i have no idea how anybody practises inside a stinkin'house,it don't work for me(glad i didn't invite my buddys over it would have been real bad) at least the name`garage band' has gained a whole new meaning,next time somebody sez that i'll nod uh-huh(at least they can kick some hiney and let er rip),this practising at `2' volume jus aint it

(sigh)opened the front door they all ran outside,no idea if there were any mortalities well,time to `roll er up' put the amp/pedals/cords back out in the shop and find the bodies,tomorrow night it'll be in the spray booth for sure(yeah!),maybe heat up a gallon or two of bondo,couple good ales BUT! i'll be able to kick it!(witch is worth a LOT)for an old deaf guy have a great evening!

here Spot!,here Porter! here Snoopy!

Good story. My cats just lay there when I play in the house. They could at least tap their foot or something.

My Boxer just sits and stares straight at the amp, cocking his head back and forth.

hahaha!

funny deal is; my cat LOVES IT! i can be `9'd out worrying about neighbors WAY over across the road at the retirement trailer park or the horse barn owners next door(since they have to get up before daybreak and shovel manure)and he jumps up on the amp and acts like he's sexually excited(or whatever cats get when they get `huggy'?)i mean CRANKIN THE KNOBS! and he's like 14-15 or so(the old phart he loves kick a-- rockin blues)

he sleeps on it, i have a thick cover my wife made and i'll toss a blanket on top of that for him(or my shop chair),yes,you MAY be a redneck if your dog(s) sleep IN the house and your cat sleeps in the shop

actually`MY' dog died 16 years baby!,,Austrailian Shepard,(my best friend ever,(dang! i guess i forgot how to spell tonight/must be the ale

i wheeled my crap back out there,wife came home and found em all(the dogs),they were hiding where it was safe== OUT IN THE SHOP! the dirty rats!
