No Caboy shoes here ever (rode BMWs and Harleys). But all I buy now are slip-in Skechers (the new old guy version of velcro sneakers)?

I don't have any like that.
I didn't expect you to "admit" to owning fun boots!
These are in my closet, I've only worn them once, so low miles - shall I send them?

A well made recreation, I have a better line on it now too, which reminds me to send a couple emails....................
Plus, they have more pockets than Yelena's vest!Like Thunderbirds, they are not for everybody. They are only for special people.
And special has a wide range of meanings.

Not that you did, but... no one should knock 'em till you've spent a day in them. Especially if you are doing some work and you don't like having to keep your pants from going down or your shirt going up. (Don't visualize anything. Nothing to see here!)
It's not too late!I don't have any like that.
Those would be fun to wear.I didn't expect you to "admit" to owning fun boots!

No, I have some of those.....I didn't expect you to "admit" to owning fun boots!

I mean they aren't my size....
I mean style.
hiwattscott might have to change his name...NAD! I love my Orange Terror Bass 500 so much I bought another! It came in on trade at work and I got a great deal on it. Hey if one is good two are better.also a pic of my Orange/ Hiwatt set up.
Very nice! A long time ago the now discontinued 1000w Terror Bass was something I dreamt of. Wound up with a 100w Crush instead.NAD! I love my Orange Terror Bass 500 so much I bought another! It came in on trade at work and I got a great deal on it. Hey if one is good two are better.
Maybe if I chill out with the bass purchases I can pull together some scratch for a proper tube rig like yours
You need to put “work” in quotes. Just sayin’….NAD! I love my Orange Terror Bass 500 so much I bought another! It came in on trade at work and I got a great deal on it. Hey if one is good two are better.
I wish I had your “job” and looked forward to going to work.
Maybe with some kind of docking station? I think your best bet is to talk to the Sweetwater rep and ask that question.
@MCF when you have an idea, please post. I need to do the same
Not me, but could be.
RMW jeans and boots. I have 2 pair of the RMW boots, one black one chestnut.
Why? To match my RMW belts of course!
Lots of Thunderbird shots in this video. This was when Iggy had Andy McCoy from Hanoi Rocks and Alvin Gibbs of The UK Subs in his backing band.
Like the looks of those. Kind of looks like a "roper" style heel and a "french toe" as they are called here.
These are some of my French Toe boots (but traditional heel).
I assume everyone saw this note from Paul: We will be offline from 8am CT to about 11am CT on Tuesday Feb 10th for a system upgrade. Thank you!
This is incredibly sad. David Johansen is so talented. I got to hang out with him once and he was such a nice and funny guy. I think he deserves whatever people can give.

We’re in the same boat brother.
I currently play Pandora or YouTube thru my iPad into a small combo amp or I play a CD from my CD player into a GK 210 combo amp and in both cases I accompany them with my bass played through my practice rig.
I wanted to continue along that line but also be able to capture the combined output for posting. Thinking ahead I assumed I’d also want a mic feed in case I wanted to add verbal content. So I needed an interface with a minimum of three inputs (music feed, bass feed, mic) and output to two monitors and a recording device with garage band. Here’s what I got…

Since I’m using my iPad to play music I can’t record on it at the same time. So I’ve decided to buy an Apple tablet with garage band as a dedicated recording device. I Just need to get my butt in gear and buy the laptop.
The final piece of the puzzle will be a visual recording device. No idea there yet, maybe something like a GoPro and YouTube account.
Take everything I’ve posted here with a grain of salt. I’m just feeling my way through it and taking a best guess, who knows there may be much better ways of recording and posting. Is it as simple as just using your iPhone? I don’t know.

Quite a few people use iPhones as a primary recording device for Youtube. Personally, I'd look at a mirrorless camera of some flavor or a dedicated iPhone (or using one you already own) before using an action cam like a GoPro, but that's just me.We’re in the same boat brother.

As for questions about being able to charge an iPad and use an audio interface at the same time, I've never done that myself so I can't speak to that with any certainty, but I'd assume you need some sort of USB hub or docking station if that's ever going to work.
The newer iPads are pretty powerful in terms of computing ability, but from what I understand, Apple kind of hobbles them with the software they make available for it. Probably because they want to sell you a Macbook too...
