Is Sharpie permanent enough? There are pens that write with oil paint.
I wouldn't write it... I'd stamp it.

I've watched this quite a few times a couple of years ago... I like this guy... extremely talented and an awesome teacher as well showing a lot of the little nuances in making those subtle sounds that make the difference 🤘😝🤘
And George Lynch is his FIL.

Reminds me of some Haitian made stuff I've seen.

I really don't understand the need to delete, jmo. However, when I select 'Edit', this is what comes up for me:

if I had another, I would splay out the legs and solder jumper wires to the terminals, then cover them with epoxy. Steel Stick type stuff, like dough when mixed. not liquid that might get in the sockets.
Sort of like a tribute to the original, eh? Except he used black silicone goop to cover the tops of the components to discourage reverse engineering... 😂

Mine was ‘81 with Foghat (and Shooting Star) opening
Lol, Shooting Star played at one of my junior high dances in KC. They were really good, this was before they released 'Hang On For Your Life'... I remember standing near the stage, watching that Leslie spin up and down. Very cool!

Hey All,
You may have noticed that the HFC has been experiencing some performance issues lately. I did make a change today to move attachment storage to amazon s3 to help take some of the load and hopefully that's a good first step.
As with many things these days, the hosting provider we’ve used for the past decade was sold, and the new owners are placing more restrictive limits on resources. The goal seems to be pushing customers into higher‑tier, and significantly more expensive, plans to maintain performance. On top of that, the cost of our existing service has increased to the point that I briefly considered returning to the 1990s, when I ran the HFC from a server in my basement on a dedicated line.Invision does offer a hosted option, but it comes with a significant annual cost and doesn’t include the base site. Determining the best path forward has been a challenge.
Before jumping to any conclusions, this is simply a plea for understanding as I work through the options, not a request for donations to cover the cost increase. I’m trying to keep expenses low to ensure the long‑term future of the HFC. Many members have generously donated in the past and continue to help, and I’m grateful for that support, but right now I’m focused on exploring alternatives. It may even be that, after nearly 30 years, it’s time to move on, or let one of the existing private Facebook groups take over the discussion.
That said, I know many of you are knowledgeable and full of great ideas. I’m an IT manager by day, but my teams do most of the magic now. I’d love to hear your thoughts and suggestions on how we might move forward.
The HFC is important to me, and I know it is to many of you as well. I’ve known many of you for nearly 30 years, and I’m not giving up, just wanting to be transparent. Let’s work through this together.
your friend,
Ted Martin
Ted,
Do you have Zelle? I'd be happy to drop some support at you if it would help...
Thanks for the best site,
DaveH

Late to this thread. I’m a Banshee user and have never had a problem with the FOH guy mixing in my mic signal. But if that’s a real problem, you could also use a vocoder, which won’t sound exactly the same but at least will run to your amp.
Vocoder. This brought flashbacks of Craig Anderton and Paia Electronics.

any of the Yes album covers done by Roger Dean
That reminded me of this one that I always thought was super cool... Same artist (I believe?)

What album cover just grabbed you, and affected/influenced you the most? For me, it was the Kiss Alive album
As a 14-15 year old, this one shook me to my core.

Pete Thorn makes anything sound good. That said, for the most part, the vid makes me prefer the Sugarcone for sure. But that that being said, there are spots where the V30 definitely shines.

'Rock n Roll Machine' was the album I had with those songs on it.

I like Dave's singing better than Hetfield's. Actually, I like everything about Mustaine better than Hetfield.

I’ve looked/asked in the Grateful Dead forum and found mixed reviews on Weber. @DaveH have you used them?
I was a Weber dealer in the 2000's, they had good product then, but never had anything re-coned. Don't know about now. I remember Ted saying the magnet had to be de-mag'd and re-mag'd for the process, not sure why.

Where's @Ranger been lately? Haven't seen him around in a while, I bet this one is hitting him pretty hard.

I'd buy it, except I would need six... One for each day of the week. With Sundays off.
