shaging hippies

Are you making a comment about the hippies, or are you making an offer to the hippies?

 

[GonePlaid]

Thank you! It was that dang birthday that made me pull the trigger on that Dingwall.

Oh. Well, as long as you had a good reason. Happy B'day.

Good as any, right? Thank you for the birthday wishes!

Wait about 4 weeks. I start the yeast tomorrow for the next batch. Going with Anchor Porter. Also need to drop off the B15N, Marshall broke it

Looking like a creamy porter is on the way.

This didn't sound as sweet at practice last night, I noticed if I backed away from my combo amp (which sits atop an extension cab and is within 2 feet of my mic) it immediately sounded better. Thinking on it, maybe I'm too close to the tweeter? In any case, the notes coming from the 210 CMD seemed to "bloom" or come into focus at a few more feet away. Odd from 10's, usually that is more of a 15 trait IME. Or maybe a by product of the DeColas...I'll see next week. It's so fun to get the Thunder from a bass under 8 lbs though.

Anybody know what's the deal with the LBO? Ya know that other place where people talk about T birds and Gibsons and Rics and a lot of general silliness. Hope it wasn't a ransomware attack.

I was wondering that too. Thought it was maybe my computer but I restarted it, signed out of and back into the LBO and it's still not working.

Room acoustics?

Nap time

I highly doubt that, I've played over a dozen different basses in that space. It's not an issue at all for me, just an observation

Cool you guys are up there on a Saturday. Hopefully you’ll have a good turnout. Meanwhile I’ll be at Thee Parkside trying not to offend the sound girl. (That is what she prefers to be referred to, right?).

Is she cute?

Last time I drove through about ten years ago, I thought I was in Iraq.

…I’ll leave that answer to @JIO . I don’t know that I have met this sound “girl” yet… The issue is that she wants to be referred to in a specific way, and I’ve been warned.

So when am I invited up for a visit?

So when am I invited up for a visit?

3 weeks-ish for first tasting. Darker beers mature more slowly, so likely at it's best in about 5-6 weeks.

Fifties to mid sixties it was a happening place. Our parents took us out there from San Diego in the winter. The weather was usually nice and the water was relatively warm.

 

[JIO]

A mute point. Actually to be fair - possibly to someone.

Might as well get a second batch going.
