ill see if I can take some better pics later… looks much better in person as the black stain either absorbs the light so hard to see the wood grain or reflects it so ends up looking red burst or something crazy for stage lighting :) (I think it looks good though if I can be bothered would prefer non gold hardware)

I grabbed this from Perfect Circuit. Erica was having a sale direct on their site too. I couldn’t pass this up. I’m just digging in and already thinking this is a good sequencer for me.

Very tempted by the Black Sequencer. Awesome layout and functionality. Shouldn’t spend any more on gear for awhile and the M8 learning curve is gonna keep me busy for quite some time.

And yes. Iridium is amazing. Wish I could justify one!

I might’ve done more damage than I’ve shown so far. The good news is that I’ve managed to avoid buying more fuzz and distortion pedals despite my temptation to do so.

Now to figure out how to get my Bloom to consistently start a sequence on the “one” when triggered by an external clock source. It occasionally hiccups and comes in late. I’m not sure if this is a quirk of modular or just that sequencer. It seemed to do that when the Pamela was the clock source too.

Getting one I hate blasted over, date and time to be confirmed.
But it's pretty much the only one I can't freakin stand anymore.

My first tattoo is really bad, but can’t bring myself to cover it. I never went full comic book, just both arms

A "bad" tattoo can mean a lot to someone.
So a bad tattoo isn't necessarily something you want to cover.
One you can stand or hate, that's another story.

I have really crappy ones I really like. Even a few that where intentionally made to look "rustic" and OG style. To each there own.

I appreciate lots of tattoo art but they aren’t for me, so I have none. Many of my friends are professional artists and there are times where I thought it would be nice to have their work, but I just can’t.

I am amused by how several metal/rock musicians in the 80’s were demonized as “tattooed” but when you look back at them they barely had any work by today’s standards.
