  1. I LOVE the way that Martin has aged with playing. And that strap is perfect on the LP. What a beauty.
  2. Post pics of tele.... I found out I wasn't a Les Paul player and fretted over selling that beauty for a LONG time. I ended up trading it for a really old guitar and in 6 months, I played my 'new' one more than the 4 years I had the Les Paul. Then, go spend a shit ton on a great acoustic. And don't put your faith in your kids ever picking it up. I tried and neither kid showed any long-term interest in music.
  3. Actually, those Dog Tired straps kind of use the same theory I had years ago as far as the material they use. My dad made a lot of his own tack and he made me a guitar strap that started with a saddle girth sort of like below (without the hardware in the middle). Our problem was we used hardware that was too big. This was heavy and too wide to be practical. This cotton part was over my shoulder and he tooled two leather straps to hook from the hardware to the guitar. He made a narrower girth with smaller hardware but I don't know whatever happened to either of them.
  4. Some things I have a hard time getting past. "The Dog Tired Premium guitar strap is hand-made in Oklahoma......."
  5. That is the reason a lot of guys just give-the-fuck-up and quit doing stuff around the house. If the females complain or redo everything the male does, why even try. I no longer load the dishwasher or wash any of her clothes for this reason. You don't like the way I do something or redo what I've done.....feel free to do it yourself. This week, after living in our house for 25 plus years, she decides the drawer with the utensils and the drawer with the towels needed to be switched. grrrrrrrr
  6. 10 Hands and About 9 Times were two GREAT bands from that time frame. Very unique sound by both bands.
  7. THIS bit of brilliance is why this thread was started. Bonus points awarded.
  8. The very rare black cracker. Even his name fits the stereotype of a white redneck. Victor Lee Tucker. When I first read the headline on local news, I thought, WTF is that white dude doing in that part of town. https://scallywagandvagabond.com/2021/06/victor-lee-tucker-jr-palmetto-georgia-man-kills-decatur-cashier-face-mask-dispute/
  9. My "small" board right now has Compressor, Shaggy Screamer, Distortion, Delay, Tremolo, Reverb with volume pedal and tuner. I'm thinking about getting one of these to replace the regular size volume pedal. Combo volume/wah in a small footprint. https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/VowPress--hotone-vow-press-volume-wah-pedal
  10. Damn, Bruce is doing some fantastic stuff right now. He is realizing something that he talked to be about a LONG time ago. He initially built that Premier Studio but had to sell it but he is really making this stuff work now.
  11. Damn...I could spend a month just looking around.
  12. Last one for today. As Bruce says, "I write sad songs, and slightly faster sad songs." This is the saddest.
  13. Karen Post0n wrote this one...but Slaid knocks it out of the park. "Hugging my knees, holding my breath". Karen's version is much more upbeat.
  14. Want to do that your your exwife...go ahead and be an asshole...good for you...you really showed her. But for child support? What a dickhead. Plus, they fact that they donated to an abuse charity makes him look like an even bigger asshole.
  15. Fantastic. Ordered. https://store.newwestrecords.com/collections/james-mcmurtry-the-horses-and-the-hounds
  16. That is exactly why they are going to do this. It will be 40 years since the 'reunion' in Central Park. Springsteen will be there as well.
  17. I bet anything they get that song stealing POS Paul Simon and Garfunkel to play at that thing.
  18. Ah...compost. With all of the bizarre fruits and veggies she buys and never does anything with....that go bad and get tossed, my compost pile is probably the most expensive thing I own. And never mind that I have two fucking 4x8 beds of onions, yesterday she comes from the store with 6 fucking onions. And just like she can't comprehend what goes into the recycling bin (which is placed directly below the list sent out by the recycler........the shit she puts into the compost pile is an array of bullshit. Plastic bags, rubber bands, metal ties......
  19. At least she wore her shoes while standing on the bar. It's a simple courtesy.
  20. I'm pretty sure she is the one that did the fucking.
