precisely why I don't have a barista or go to Starbucks..
gorgeous...never had (always wanted to) a chance to play one....those pickups alone...
Your other choice in Canada is drinking dirty dishwater from Tim Hortons. I'll take over-
no Italian Cafes/Restaurants? Find that hard to believe..
It’ll happen. Others are devising the same scheme and have been working on it for more than a decade. But 2025 is too optimistic. The tech may be ready by then, but more like 2030 with all the red tape needed to be cut through, at least in the US. The industry looks at is as a potential boom with cars on the road 24/7. They’ll wear out faster and be replaced more frequently. Invest in batteries...now. And tires. And as Mr. McGuire told Ben in The Graduate, plastics. I’ve probably said too much....was at the Tesla plant yesterday and the talk is that by 2025, your Tesla will drop you off at work and then go UBER/Lyft folks around (driverless) and then pick you up at work when done. Tesla would take your car payment and 30% of the proceeds and you pocket the rest.....buh bye UBER (who's surprisingly not doing so well after the IPO) and Lyft.......Asimov's "malarkey" wasn't far from the truth.......
There are independent coffee shops that can good. But at least as many have over-priced underwhelming coffee. I can make great espresso at home so I will choose that. But when travelling, I am looking for the McDonalds of espresso; coffee that is predictable from location to location at predictable prices. So, Starbucks it is. Not great but predictable and acceptable.
That you. If you're ever in Lou. Ky you have a standing invitation to do so.
I've got some some maintenance to do tomorrow, including getting some foam under the neck PUP. It should be sounding killer after that--and once I decide on which strings. My 64 has TI Superalloys and I can't ever see changing that so does the VP at present, but I'm not sure what direction I want to go yet. the '76 has Fender flats and that's fine for that one. So the string game begins
you'd be surprised how popular McDonalds coffee is over here..
honored. may just take you up on that. thank you.
Yesterday (10 or so pages back) I asked:
The only reply so far is
I'm not complaining about the lack of feedback because I am likely to do what ever I feel like doing anyway. But it would be interesting to get some outside points of view that I could ignore in the decision making process.
Let us know where you end up on strings. I think I am leaning toward Roto Nickels (but reserve the option of changing my mind to ignore feedback here
).
I'm not surprised. Your president puts ketchup on steak...
The Bay Area doesn’t even come close to the problem in LA. Construction everywhere. To correct the problems based on 2010 stats. I can’t wait to leave.
What were your impressions of the Pure Blues? I like the TI Superalloys and GHS Pressurewounds, both with alloy 52. I have some Roto Nickles. Nice mids from what I recall.
Yep. My volts come from PG&E. Waiting for the shoe to drop. Run by a bunch of as****es. I don’t want to be banned, so I’ll shut up now.
Good to know he’s the real deal. Nothing wrong with a good MIM Jazz. But to get your bird healthy again is great news.
