Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

Sadly I'm sending back the new Peavey MiniMax. It just didn't produce the tone I wanted, and more importantly, the fan was so dang loud. I mean noisy loud. I talked to a guy at Peavey and he said that the design was to have them run high to keep them cool. They haven't figured as far as GK I guess. I have an MB200 that's been very faithful to me the last year, it's done some good shows and now with my new AudioKineses Hathor 1203 it's LOUD. So the MiniMax is going back and I'm getting a GK MB500. Haven't decided between the MB00 and the Fusion yet. I've heard here and there on TB that the Fusion has a different tone stack-- if it's much different than the regular M series I'm not interested. Sad about the Peavey though. I've been using Peavey stuff for decades. Kind of a comfort thing I guess. But, time to move on!

That's sad. Grumpy food for grumpy thoughts. Makining miss lilac butt drop back a page also sad.

Can't hear my Carvin fan. Had to put my hand there and feel for air. It might kick up a speed if it gets warm.

Where are the GOFs? Everyone suddenly happy?

Got a coworker with actual talent to wrap my wife's Bday gift today. Carvin guitar combo. Also found some fabric to bling my diy cabs for WAF. 20160409_192304.jpg 20160409_192119.jpg

One night I was thirsty and was driving to the liquor store for some hard cider when I was pulled over. Not only did I not have my ID but I forgot my wallet at home! Hellooo! How ya gonna buy the booze! Luckily I knew the police guys from work and told them I was going to the grocery store. They sent me home to get my wallet and I quickly proceeded to bed, thanking God and my angels for my good fortune! BTW I don't drive out late at night for the liquor store anymore.....:bag:
