As a performer, he's been in a number of very influential bands. As an engineer he recorded an estimated 1500 albums. Let us each record a cover of a song from th...

You can find a bunch of neat things with him on YouTube. Too soon.
Too soon. I've listened to him for hours talk about sound engineering. His personality comes out in fun ways, he's never really says anything overtly dickish, but it's obvious he has it in him.

I was bad at predicting storage and networking trends. I would not have predicted that in 2024 that my WAN and LAN speeds would match. I did not expect that Gigabit Ethernet would still be with us. I would have expected, by now, to treat it with the same disdain normally reserved for "Fast Eth...

Yes indeed. I oped for the two pickup variety. I managed to get the $499 price, which now seems unavailable. Thanks to the SongFight Slack #guitars channel for the heads-up on this!

Now to write a song with it!

Re: I popped some pills so (I Could Do This All Day reviews)

I'm just popping in here real quick with some first impressions before I write my reviews. The "Great Mimes" track is like really, good. I love me some power-pop, and the chorus of that track delivers in spades. Nice job Glenn Case and friends!
