Happy Monday….

Last Friday, sub gig. Got new/old Dunlop Super Bright Stainless on the 34CA since then, and that's a good improvement over the fraying tapewounds that were on it... But the 'Bird got the favor from the sound guy... Present and clear, good punch however I played it. And as usual, notably comfy to play.
My corner office, with the Mesa TT-800 and ye olde Schroeder 1210R, tilted back on a chopped, stolen milk crate.
Oh yeah! Happy Monday!

two bucks fifty to see Zeppelin.....talk about another era...
Yeah. IIRC, it was $3.50 to see the Boss at Robertson Gym (UCSB) in ‘75. I don’t recall how much we paid to see Bowie at Universal in ‘74, but it certainly wasn’t very much. I recall being somewhat shocked at having to pay close to $10 for the Clash shows at the Santa Monica Civic in ‘79 and ‘80. I think we paid $9.75 for each night of Neil and the Horse at the Forum in ‘78. Genesis and Yes shows in the late seventies were also about that. I think it was about $5.00 to see Gabriel in the UCI Gym in ‘76.
In those days, we saw a lot of shows at the Golden Bear in HB for about $5.00 or even less. Same for shows at the OC Fairgrounds.

Has anybody told you that you put it up backwards yet?

There are lots of things that humans have figured out how to do that probably killed lots of cave people before they got the technique down. Japanese puffer fish come to mind. There's also some kind of South American root that will kill you if it isn't prepared properly, using a complicated set of steps. Those steps mean it won't kill you but it is bland and unappealing. But edible. Humans are strange animals.

I have had gator. Stick to bacon.
I wouldn’t go if you paid me 6K. And if the Rams make it, you couldn’t pay me enough to go.
So far, so good. I double checked that it wasn’t the phone, too. I had seen that before.
Part Scot here. I like artichokes. I think I first had them in Paris. Some local pizzerias use them.
At least a couple different dozen brand/type/size sets.
My fave was how some of the old brick and flip phones would make high pitched morse code sounds through a PA.

The lady who helped me (Taylor) was a real trooper. Made sure I got to exchange, only had me return the undamaged other panel (saving weight and therefore $) and when parts needed to mount the newer panels were left off the shipment, shipped them along no questions asked and without cost.
Not her or their fault coast-to-coast shipping is so expensive, but at the end of the day I had nearly as much in shipping charges as I did in product.
If I ever move, they're coming with me.
I might put in my will to have them buried with me.
This spring, the county/city is set to install some super duper communications equipment about a quarter mile from the house. Wondering if there will be any effect. What they have there now hasn’t been an issue.
People eat Prickly Pear here, both the pad and fruit. I have had prickly pear candy, jelly, and even in cocktails (mostly margarita's). They only time I have eaten the pad was in tacos. I think they marinated it and then sliced it up. Was pretty good, actually.
