  1. I equate such festivals with extremely low yield musical performance quality and high incidences of low hygiene. Caveat emptor.
  2. Reverb before Etsy...pretty damn good Reverb after Etsy...pretty damn bad. Mergers, consolidations, and acquisitions are never ventured with benefits to the end user in mind.
  3. Forward to.1:00. https://youtu.be/P3CnvphQs04?si=t7m2PCo0scsSLFYp
  4. My band--Mother Nature--played there quarterly from '93-'95. Great venue. Yoooge house PA.
  5. The hometown boy from Fayette-nam, NC. He plays pretty well, you know. Might actually make a career out of it. First time I ever saw him play was with Col. Bruce Hampton and Aquarium Rescue Unit at The Attic in Greenville, which was my band's home base. Jimmy on the right, playing a Strat. Oteil Burbridge on the left, playing lines that would have made Jaco smile. Bruce in the middle, playing the "meh-DOO-lah OB-lon-GAH-tah". IYKYK.
  6. True, but Aces High and 2 Minutes to Midnight are bangers.
  7. I've posted it here many times: I still love Iron Maiden's first seven albums. They started losing me with Fear of the Dark, and at some point over the last twenty years, it seems that most of their songs have morphed into dirges with long, slow intros and outros that sound like soccer stadium chants. When Martin Birch retired, i feel like the band lost its edge. IMHO, Kevin Shirley has done virtually nothing to restore that edge. Of course they're selling out stadiums on tour, so they must be doing something right.
  8. Maxon built nearly all of the Ibby pedals from that era, including the TK.
  9. Charvel still hanging around. Jackson sold right after I refinished it.
  10. Didn't something similar happen to Don Felder's custom Erlewine doubleneck? I recall him saying in an interview that the Eagles broke up around the time he received it, and when he opened it up 14 years later to get gear ready for Hell Freezes Over, the flight case foam had melted into the clearcoat.
  11. Breaking this one out for the first time in years.
  12. I had this issue with wound D strings from multiple XL sets on over a dozen different guitars. Different packs purchased over a period of time, as well. It cost D'Addario my business after 30+ years as a loyal customer. Wire matters. I use EB Primo Slinky sets now. No issues...yet.
  13. K-Mawt and Seeyahz have refused to carry the album. Just because of the cah-vuh."
