Most of the time when they announce who's doing the halftime show, my response is "Who?". This from a guy who marched in ~25 halftime shows w/ the marching band in h.s.

I miss the marching bands.
Screw the "big name" 'entertainers'.
I knew it; I just knew it.Those were the real Beatles. The people everyone saw on TV were actors.
NOT!
We did a whole Beatles medley in Miami in 81/82. Still do a few with the current band. (Remember-we're in our 70's/80's playing 60's/70's R&R/country for folks 60ish and up)

Happy Coming-out Day, Mate!
Thank you everyone
Techie time ..
If I wanted to get more highs out of m the TB+ pups in my Classic Pro, and wanted to use a 500k pot, would you out it on the bridge pup, or the neck pup?
And one thing at a time, but how about caps?
It's a simple thing I want to do, looking for baby-step type recs here. Lately tech has been a booby trap for me, and I'm thinking less is more.
Thx.
Hope everyone's getting a good year shaped up.

I’d do 500k pots on both pick ups with no tone control.
Or a no load tone pot at 500k.
But that’s just me.
The only two I can recall watching that were Ok IMO were the Boss and McCartney shows. I haven’t watched a SB in years.
Basically is a tone control.No load?
Explain it like I'm five.
But when set all the way up, or which ever way its supposed to be set.
It cuts out of the circuit altogether as if there is no tone pot at all.
So you have a tone control if so desired, but can also have it completely out of the circuit as well.
As if there was no tone control at all.

Happy Birthday Geoff!! Nothing but the best !!
I often don't watch those at the college level, but when I do I have to admit they are very impressive. I have a hard time playing a song. No chance of choreographed marching added to that is possible. I have a hard enough time just standing still.I miss the marching bands.
Birthday Party at the harbor!
We're going with Fosters. After all it will be returning to pee from which it came shortly anyway.
The girl is supposed to be Olivia Newton John, but looks as much like Peter Frampton....
Geoff is clearly the one in the middle still hammering on the Fosters! AI must know him.

This is exactly what I was going to suggest^
This guy is talking about strat wiring, but its a pretty clear demo of how to mod a tone pot:No load?
