  1. I definitely think that level of detail is going to lead to some dead threads pretty quickly. Maybe "Making Music" as a meta thread is more appropriate. Sorry to reverse field.
  2. Yeah, I know some things and have more questions than answers but I'd be happy to contribute. I'd suggest fairly specific threads (i.e., recording separate from songwriting/composition etc.).
  3. It's not the IQ test that concerns me, it's the cognitive test.
  4. No voting rights for anyone without an IQ of at least 110. That's my platform.
  5. I find the idea that this administration cares about people's diets laughable.
  6. Quitter.
  7. Somewhere on this thread I posted an estimate of male student enrollment at A&M and UT for one particular year "back when". The numbers were pretty close. The "but Sip U was coed" argument mostly works against the Aggies.
  8. I'm curious -- did all those guys play HSS Strats a significant amount?
  9. Miles would know. He was off pitch half the time, but damn he set a standard. I will continue to tout my G&L "Tele" with a standard Tele bridge pickup and a humbucker at the neck. Maybe not a Swiss Army knife but about as close as I can imagine getting.
  10. Fair. Paul Westerberg might have hit the middle with some of his solo stuff, although closer to the Dylan lyrical + technical combo.
  11. I imagine most guys who would take that job would give Tua the first shot, which sucks for Quinn.
  12. Context and timeframe matter. When that album was released, the rock music world was still reeling over the loss of Kurt Cobain and Nirvana. Then, out of the blue, Nirvana's DRUMMER drops an LP that featured all kinds of pop songwriting smarts. Nobody expected that. Nobody. "Big Me" is a terrific nod to 60's folk rock, with the major 3 (E) chord and the C-C7 passing chord on the root. It's a very well written song, and it came as a huge surprise. That album actually started to get people wondering just how much influence Grohl might have had on Nirvana's songwriting, and for good reason. And yes, it is better than any song by The Killers.
  13. I've had the usual assortment of injuries like torn ACL, broken bones, etc. but honestly the pain of a burn in a kitchen fire -- just my THUMB -- was the worst. And that was only 2nd degree. I can't imagine walking 1.5 miles with 3rd degree bans, even it they were "just" on his hands.
  14. Just think how great it would be if you loaned me $8,000!
