  1. That is possibly the worst charge call I've ever seen
  2. You shall not Surly die.
  3. Really? What wiki says on the topic: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Betty
  4. You are going to really enjoy going back through his old stuff, because a lot of it is brilliant. The whole record "yelled at by a clown" is on YouTube.
  5. That's more like it.
  6. I wish I could rep you twice. Once for starting a thread on a current artist, and once for a good rant, which I am always down for.

    “Town and Country” is in my all-time top 20 albums. I will give this new one a listen or two. Appreciate the heads-up.
  8. Bilas lobbying for foul calls on about 5 of the last 6 possessions Getting fucking old
  9. Still genius.
  10. They give us back-to-back non-shooting fouls that haven't been called all night.
  11. I agree with that last sentence 100%. At the end, disco became 1) ubiquitous and 2) awful. e.g. Sesame Street disco. Streisand disco. Disco duck. Fucking KISS made a disco song.
  12. Great answer. There was a poignancy to that movie that really hit me hard. I re-watched it a few months ago, and it still felt really powerful in a way that's hard to articulate. Sometimes he tries to do the right thing and he's punished for it (the cat, getting a license to take a job on a ship). And sometimes he's just too broken to do what he knows is morally right (take the exit to Akron, where he knows there's an ex-girlfriend raising his child).
  13. My go-to guitar. It had fret buzz on two strings (?A and D) up around 10-12th frets. It was otherwise very nicely set-up and stable. I took it to Danny Shoemaker at Straight Frets. He put it on his bench and we looked at it together for 10 or 15 minutes. He thought the neck had either twisted or swollen a little unevenly over time (I can't remember his exact theory). Long story short: I decided to just get it PLEK'd, and left it with him to PLEK and put on a new nut (the machine can also cut the nut with perfect precision as it levels the frets). Before I left it with him, he let me look at the machine and showed me how it works. Once you lock a guitar in place, the machine will measure out everything very precisely and print out an incredibly detailed before-and-after schematic of how "off" the frets are, how much metal is going to be shaved to get to the ideal configuration... like down to the tiniest amount of metal along every single fret. Then you can pull the guitar down and tweak the truss rod (and maybe also tweak the bridge). Then lock it back into the machine and let it measure everything again. I think the idea is to get it set up by hand as perfectly as possible so as to shave off the least amount of metal. I picked it up a week or so later, and he confessed that his theory for why I had a little buzz in one spot wasn't exactly correct. It made me respect him more that he would readily say that. I've got to say, if it was world's best luthier vs a really good luthier and a PLEK... I'd take the PLEK all day long. They're incredible machines. Y'all have seen it more than once on this thread... it's a 91 Custom Shop. It looks a little red in this photo... it's actually orange. It also got relic'ed the old fashioned way - by playing the shit out of it for 30 years.
  14. I’ve never gotten the pop-up “you can’t give any more rep” message from this website until today. Tele Friday did this.
  15. I grew up in Houston area and remember him well. He was a fantastic broadcaster. He clearly had a good understanding for the game, affection for the coaches and players (and appreciation for their often-overlooked home towns), and he added just the right amount of enthusiasm to his calls. He came across as folksy but still dignified. It's sad to think how UT television broadcasts have fallen from the gravitas of Ron Franklin to the over-excited gibberish of no-talent Lowell Galindo.
  16. I dig both of those.
  17. Matchless amp juuuuuust peeking there above the couch, like sonic cleavage.
  18. Paul Wesley replied to Zwylde's topic in Music
    Charlie is an incredibly good rock vocalist. That performance is A++++++.
  19. I may owe the Weekend an apology.
  20. Yeah, I misremembered. The news articles in 2019 said Biden told staff he’d be a 1-term guy. But he never said that publicly. And has since said he’d run again.
  21. Interesting discussion. Has Biden publicly stated that he’s running? He said he wouldn’t- and I don’t remember seeing where he’s changed course. Republicans have done a **much** better job of identifying the last few likely Democratic presidential nominees - especially Hillary - and spent half a decade putting out daily hit jobs, conspiracy theories, and subversive rumors. I’m convinced that Hillary was simultaneously one of the most qualified candidates (though unlikeable) of the last 100 years, and also the only (D) who could have lost to the most profoundly unqualified major-party candidate of our time. They’re already shelling Harris (EXPENSIVE COOKWARE! Communist!). She’s seemingly got NO ONE in her corner right now. I don’t think she could beat any of the Trumpkin loons. Last point: I’ll bet Trump runs if he thinks he’s captured enough swing state legislators with his loyalists. He definitely doesn’t need the popular vote. He may not need an electoral majority either. I think it looks bleak for the Dems.
  22. Early 80’s Customs had those tuners with the flip-out pegwinders.
