So I'm working on another tune for a (very) amateur song contest and I decided to re-record an old unfinished song idea. So things are humming along and I've got all the drums, bass, and rhythm gtrs done. Lead gtr part and vocals still to be done. I had this gtr solo part worked out at one...

I played Brickbreaker for a couple of years a long time ago. Then my wife turned me on to Wordscapes. We ran through all of that and beyond the 7000 regular rounds. Then I played Wooduko for a while. But now it's all about the NYT games. Mini Crossword, Connections, Wordle, and Spelling Bee...

But I found a cool saturated vocal effect. By inserting my 2A clone compressor into the insert section of my API312 clone preamp.... I can raise the output level of the 2A (without activating the compressor) and dial in a cool saturated vocal effect. From clean to incredibly distorted and...

Just curious... how folks feel about this relatively important question. Yes or no? FWIW - I am talking about any crime(s). Any breach of any law which is currently on the books. Thanks for participating.

That's such a cool version of that song - with the gtr solo being the highlight I think. I've just always thought that gtr solo was so cool and inventive. Not to mention technically impressive. It's got the cool mixolydian based melodic parts..... and then it's got those fast staccato picking...

It was supposed to be overcast here - but at the moment we've got a clear view. Almost completely covered now.

I've been wanting to bring this up here for a while - this recording by Led Zeppelin. Well, it's really just a single solo acoustic performance by Jimmy Page. It's one of my very favorite pieces of music, bar none. It's just so beautiful. Still learning to play it fluently myself. Not there...

Or soon will be. I read the article in the NYT. Check it out elsewhere if you don't get the NYT. You know - the standard 3% + 3%=6% that goes to both agents covered by the seller (typically). That standard is going away. This will spur competition and is almost certainly to drive home values...

If ya haven't seen it - this is fun. I'd say that the mighty Zep passed the test. Interesting though - that the one older long hair white kid was a hard pass.

.....is one of my favorite snacks. I've tested different ways of smoking cheese over the years to varying degrees of success. The biggest problem - depending on what one has to work with - is that, typically, to create smoke you're going to also create heat. As we know - heat and cheese are not...

Edited: this is a slightly improved mix (hopefully). 7pm, 12/10/23 I've entered this track in an amateur song contest - not going to spend a lot of time on it but if there is something glaringly bad or something way off about this mix please feel free to chime in with feedback. EQ...

Cool! All the major players are returning. I assume Rob Reiner will get this right. Hopefully

Here's some world class jazz from acquaintance Doug Robinson and his band Mo Ritmo. Check it out. If you dig this be sure to hit the like button. These guys are serious cats and are deserving of some attention. Enjoy!

Hope you have much to be thankful for today - I sure do. Eat , drink, and be merry.... that's the plan. Cheers and gobble, gobble.🦃

Our youngest son took a job up in Glenwood Springs, CO early last year. So about 8 weeks ago his brother and his wife and me and Mrs. Porterhouse all flew out to Denver and then drove on up to the valley area there near Aspen and hung out for a week. It's usually a little colder that time of...

...per gallon, I just filled up for. Not sure why Joe Biden wanted to hurt his approval ratings by jacking the price up there for a year or two. Seems a weird choice to make if you're him. But I guess since that was his doing I need to give him thanks for bringing it back down. Thanks Joe.

"Now and Then" Just heard it on an iHeart station. I thought it was great. Classic Lennon.

I'm wondering what you all think of this song. Any and all opinions and critiques welcome.

Has become a drag. It's my opinion that the mods need to put a stop to it.

I think I originally saw this on The History Channel about 15+ years ago. What makes this documentary interesting and unique is that there is no formal narration whatsoever. It's simply footage from that morning pieced together in chronological order. I'm not certain but I think this is...
