WoW What an intuitive universe we have...
From Hue on Mar 26, 2010
I really have missed you guys! It's been so long since I was able to 'hang out' here, read, comment, and listen to everyones music... and WOW! There sure is a lot of new tunes up! You guys have been busy!!! (: 3=
I recieved my eviction letter last Monday... I have until the 19th of April. hahaha We were going to move this May, so it appears that we'll have to step-up the process a bit. Basically, the guy who owns the home that I rent is a hatefull, and bitter old man, who needs people to be as miserable as himself, for him to feel worthwhile. (a fact that was well-hidden at the start of our residential-relationship.)pfffffft... nice, huh? Soooo... just like I ordered it to happen, a much bigger, nicer home falls out of the sky for us to rent. It has a couple of acres of land for the dog, and a garage for the band to jam/record in. I really couldn't have asked for better timing, or location, or anything! I am truly amazed at the intuitiveness of our universe. ; p
The band is doing quite well, too...
Just last night we traded one of our acoustic drum kits for a Simmons SD9K|(something)... veddy nice indeed! Since the last move placed us in a facility that didn't allow us to play loudly, we have resorted to doing everything direct, including the percussion, which meant that our drummer became a 'typist', utilizing a DR770 drum machine as his means to express himself. What a guy, huh?! I mean, damn... that's some dedication! He even managed to make it sound pretty good! lol Needless to say, this new kit is going to open a few new doors, and add alot more feeling to everything we record. Craigs List rocks!
Speaking of Craigs List... A couple of years ago, I managed to find m'self a Line-6 FlextoneIIIxl, with a shortboard, which I purchased and found to be one of the best amps I've had the pleasure of owning. The years go buy, and I come accross some hard times, and decide to sell the amp. I find that it really held it's value... I also find out how much I miss the tones that amp made possible. I tried replacing it with another Line-6 product... a FloorPOD-plus, which is essentially an expanded Spider3 in floor-board-form, and it did not cut it. I find that the digital-modeling-engine that the Spiders, and POD 2.0s use are not the same as the XT, X3, Vetta, or Flextone engines. Interesting... So, tax-return time comes around, and I break-down, find and buy another FlextoneIIIxl w/Shortboard. Get this... not even three days later, I find a guy on Craigs List that is willing to trade me his Vetta-2(actually a Vetta-1 that has had its hardware, and firmware upgraded) for my Gibson The Paul-II(the one I got from trading a MIM Strat for), which I found myself playing less and less. So, I am now the proud owner of more Line-6 products than you can shake a stick at. haha I keep the Flextone at work to play with, and use the (incredible) Vetta head for the studio, and live performances. Sick tones!
I just wanted to acknowledge our awesomely-intuitive universe, and be thankfull for my little place in it. This seemed like a good place for that. Thanks for not evicting me guys! HRC Rocks!!1!
