Hello All. I haven't been able to follow for a while. On the 21st While working on finishing my Storage building Roofing I Slid Off and Fell about 9ft. When Landing I Dislocated my Right Wrist along with a Fracture. Free ride to the Hospital. They also did a Covid Test which came back Positive. Been a rough few days but am feeling a bit better today. I have Surgery Scheduled for Tomorrow. Plates and screws. Follow up for one plate removal at a later date. I look forward to hearing about the get together at Chuck's.
Holy crap! Glad you are (mostly) in one piece.

When you are out of surgery, we can talk rehab. I have been through some hand rehab/getting back to playing.

Enjoy the narcotics!

I have heard stories of JB being angry when things aren't working in the studio. But, there was a documentary on JB I saw a couple of years back. You see him working on his cars, jamming with young musicians, and drinking tea. He seems very normal. And he has a wicked sense of humour - his quip about Rod Stewart "We have a love hate relationship. He loves me and I hate him..."


I always confuse Nigel and Jeff :roflmao:

Yikes! Best of luck on the surgery. Glad you’re feeling better!

Geeze , I hope you are on the mend.
 
As you know, Damnation Audio makes a great and versatile bass distortion. More people should try it. EDIT***Now that I am caught up, I see that you have been preaching the Damnation gospel!!
It's so good. Every dirt pedal I've liked since I've realized I can get very close to with the MBD. It's that versatile.

So sorry to hear that. Certainly glad it wasn't any worse, which it definitely could have been. Praying for a good surgery and through recovery. Update when you can.

9 foot drop is enough to kill ya! Glad to hear you’re still with us and sad to hear there were injuries. Speedy recovery!
 
Well, it's a preamp. So I only use it when there's some house amp somewhere that has an FX loop. It's meant to replace the preamp du jour. In NYC it's always up to chance what you'll play through.
Ah. I use my preamp no matter what I'm connecting to. <shrug>

Sorry to hear that, man. Glad you're relatively OK. Praying for ridiculously fast healing.
