Now that looks pretty metal!

I left out all the bad preteen satanic graffiti.

Preteen Satanic graffiti? They must have gotten started early! I didn't start listening to the metal and worshiping Satan til at least 14 or so. Kids these days...

how do you guys do your guitar straps? straplocks? grolsch beer seals? screw it directly onto the guitar with a washer?

 

[mbelue]

I thought it was. I think they keep track of how much you buy, like with psuedophed - but as long as you're not cooking Walter White style I think you're good.

Yep. Love that stuff.

You know, now that I think of it, I've been complaining about not having enough time in my life lately.
I bet those little pills probably gave me more time in my day for stuff like 4hr rehearsals.
Wonder how many years off the end of my life they cost me...

I use loxx strap locks. Ive heard they are less likely to strip your strap screws out than the schallers or dunlop locks. I dont really know if its true but mine are holding on just great so far.

Those years will probably suck anyway.

Any of you guys have experience with either Headspin Records or Nasoni Records? Both are European vinyl labels specializing in Stoner/psych type stuff.

Been busy, dudes. Started a new job Monday, gonna be working some long days, but I'm stoked about the opportunity.

Meanwhile, did a live radio broadcast set with MDT tonight; hella fun!

Rig from the set:

Did you by chance read heavier than heaven? I heard about the grolsch thing reading that in HS before I even started playing.

I have flipped so many guitars and probably 40% have strap lock studs I assume the seller forgot to keep. So I keep them and install the normal ones when I flip. So all my basses and guitars have them and I just rotate out the strap to the one I'm playing lol as I one have have one set of the female strap part.

My bronco though uses washers.

Those years will probably suck anyway.

Weirdest argument I've ever heard. Not that this is the first time hearing it.

Just saw interstellar at the $1 theatre in 35mm (idk what that implies though). That movie went from funny to exciting to scary. Shook me to the core like no movie has in years. No movie has made me think like that ever probably. Weird to as the friend I saw it with had already seen it, and I leaned over less than halfway into the movie to predict the ending and even though I was right it's still freaky to me beyond comprehension idk why.

Grolsh seals on all except the Ibanez. It's got those strange thick pegs on which the seals won't fit. But I doubt that the strap would fall off, it took me like 5 minutes to put it.

Anyone tried the DOD 250 overdrive? I feel some Al Cisneros fanboy GAS coming...
