Today is our last rehearsal with our new drummer before we pop his cherry next weekend out in Port Angeles Wa., we'll run through 3 55 minute sets before we're done.........long afternoon ahead.
If you get a chance, please post a full review on how these strings work for you. I've been thinking about trying some Low Riders on my Spector bird.
I'll do my best, but I'm not good at those things. Initial impression is that they're a little "fuller"-sounding than the RS66, which isn't necessarily a good thing for everyone. Lower tension than the RS66, but not floppy like I found the Hi-Beams. Where the RS66 have that sort of spiral tail end, the DRs cut to basically a 45 G string's thickness. I'll play more with them to see how they grow on me, and I would like to at least get a band practice in with them, but my initial guess it that I'll go back to the RS66. There's just something so satisfying about them.
That's an infinite amount of cheesy glitter and pearloid. I suggest shiny, tacky clothes when you play it, just because. Style over comfort. Besides, Imelda owes you a small slice of closet for frivolities.
The internet. Where else do pictures like that come from?
I have been giving it up for Lent for the past few years. One of these days, it might just not come back after Lent is over. I don't really miss it that much. Only problem, then I would have to give up something else. Coffee? No way. Oddball musical things? Nope. Ah, it doesn't matter. That's a year from now, assuming the ban sticks this year.
Y'know, I have never heard that saying before...
Those are incredibly cool pics! I'll hafta try & capture something like those with my own daughters
Just bumping this up for anyone that knows.
No, we can't. It's very much like the single minded pursuit of endless posts. We are implacable.
That's just too great for words! When you have a grandchild, you will have to make sure the kid understands the true shape of things, though. It could be worse. My son is a trumpet player. Treble, fer chrissakes!
I still find it hard to believe that it won’t fit in a Gator ProGo with the bottom cushion removed, but what’s the minimum inside length you need?
That's me in real life. I'm only a boring, dorky old guy on the internet.
