Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

[Korladis]

Sorry to hear brother. That's the good Lord setting you up because Catapult will receive notification of a pending wold tour.

I don't think I could afford it, ha.

 

[Speedor]

Sorry to hear that, man.

Been digging through my stash of old mp3's and found this gem:

 

[bassboysam]

these guys don't get nearly enough credit. heavy, quirky, original, catchy and just awesome.

Not doom, but still sad. Love me some Bolt Thrower...

They were just getting started when I left ABQ, i feel like i missed out.

Drunk ramble.

So I've been single, aside from a FWB's thing I have going that's kinda petering out its life. It's kinda weird so I'm not butt hurt. I was seeing two girls separately that used to date and broke up and slowly have gotten back together (ménage du askrere yet to manifest but maybe as a last hurrah?).

There's this girl who as long as I've known her has been with this guy, but Generally anytime I saw them I wound up isolated with just her. I haven't seen nor heard from her in like half a year (4 months of which she was in another country). I was thinking about this, and out of the blue she asks where I've been and why we aren't talking...

Well a day or so later I replied, and she asks if I can come across what people bring to raves . I say yes I know of glow sticks cough cough, and she says she's never really tried it but when out of the country on her own. We banter and she's saying she wants to see if the American version of a glow stick is the same. If it is, she would totally like to use it to catch up with me at her place?

Now I think she's a 10. So it doesn't matter how, It'd be my civic duty to do this, regardless of potential outcome. But I have no clue if she's still with that guy or not, all she said, is this whole thing is between us, don't tell anyone (hmmm?)... No real plan, other than if God forbid she weirdly thinks for some reason we are just gonna rave 1 on 1 in her bed platonically. If her BF just didn't want to try it, I have a friend who will drive up and extract me from the area lol.

Interesting is all I can say. We'll see where it leads. Can only speculate and giggle so far.

Civic duty. Lol.

I don't know how familiar you all are with drum corps, DCI or any of the specific corps or their traditions, but I am. I had several friends in a variety of corps. Well there is a specific corps out of Wisconsin with an unofficial acronym/motto that adorns many an unofficial t shirt and is used as a pre-performance rally cry.

The motto is GYDS. What they tell the staff is that it means "Get Your Day Started!"

Well, @askrere what it really means is "Get Your D Sucked!". And well, rere, GYDS.

 

[Turkeypills]

Well I opened up my crest. I see no fuse or sign of burn damage. I guess they are new enough that I can't find any troubleshoot info anywhere. I'm pretty clueless as to what the problem could be and a little bummed that it is going to end up being a shop fee because I do not think I can fix it. I'm hoping it's still under warranty.


I don't know if i had clearly described the issue. When I hit the power switch, the top two rows of LEDs flash once and then turn off and will not light up again. The fan kicks on full speed and I get no sound or signal recognition from the amp.

I'm usually not hard on gear at all. Makes me wonder if the amp had an issue before I got it. I can't imagine these things are that delicate, I mean it lasted through two rehearsals before crapping the bed.

"Glow sticks"?

*** does that mean. You don't mean actual glow sticks, do you? I'm not sure if this is a regional thing or an age thing or what.

LSD, ye olde one.

 

[Korladis]

I've never heard it called that. Always either "LSD" or "acid."

 

[Bassic Playing]

Neither have I. But as soon as someone is talking about raves, I assume any word put in quotation marks means acid.

 

[Turkeypills]

I was assuming molly. Especially with the Euro comment. From what I understood, mdma is very popular in Europe and LSD, real LSD is relatively rare outside of the USA. Not that it isn't there, but most people into that scene might not have 3 or 4 dealers with multiple sheets each.

 

[Bassic Playing]

Yea could be mdma. Rere please report back on drugs and positions used

 

[Turkeypills]

re: the girl

Pics bruh

 

[Kaa]

I'm pretty sure it's MDMA she was asking about.
Askrere, for what it's worth, tread carefully, and cautiously, until you find out whether said boyfriend guy is "happy to give you a beatin' guy" or not.
This sounds dicey to my older and wiser self. My younger "damn the torpedoes" self would be cheering you on, but these are different times.

And, yeah, pics.

 

[The_Janitor]

Askrere - just ask her if she's still with dude. That's a normal thing that friends would talk about. If she says no, then go for it. If she says yes, you could still go for it, just be aware of what could happen. Last thing I'll say is this: when I was younger i missed a lot of not so subtle signals, this whole situation seems like one of those things that's glaringly obvious in hindsight. So go for it, you dont have to be aggressive or a creep about it if you're wrong about her intentions, but don't let this chance pass you by.

I would go the way of Sir John Shaft.

Also this. So much this. Please let me
us love vicariously...

And here is the voice of reason. Don't get your ass beat for tang...

And again, pics.

Correct, but what's this about a euro comment? Oh I think I got what you took to mean euro. Totally didn't though. I just prefer very much to discuss things like that in code. safety and it's fun.

lol grandpa got it right!

skipping a lot, Suffice to say I don't fear retribution. If they are still together, He's a head shorter, and is on a student visa, and I'm pretty sure failed his entrance exam to a masters degree. So he may be leaving, but if not he for sure doesn't have a bang bang to take out askrere.

I just can't get a bead on this girl. She's always been very forward with me for being in a relationship, but never took it to a level beyond just interesting. I can't believe though she'd seriously want to take afformentioned stuff with me in her bedroom 1-1 if she wasn't thinking of escalating that. But who knows, hence a friend who knows to come rescue me ASAP if it gets weird.
