Yeah he was much more charming in the Song Exploder interview than I've ever found him to be before.

Hello everyone, Please enjoy the first installment of the Song Fight Diary, a video interview series where I interview a song fighter about one of their entries. A pile of thanks to Robyn Mackenzie for her gracious willingness to be the first subject, as well as for her great entry for "Better Luck ...

Amazing coincidence Lunkhead! I have been working on exactly this thing, and the first episode is LIVE NOW! Thanks to Robyn Mackenzie for being willing to be the first subject of an interview for the Song Fight Diary. Go watch our conversation about her "Better Luck Next Year" on the Song FIght YouT...

Weird thing is that bot registered prior to when I changed the signup form to require pronouns. Which was months ago. Prior to that I just looked for a reasonable username and email, and “Heatherarita” and “heathertan@gmail” seemed human. So, my bad I think, but weird that it waited so long to get a...

Baaaanned.

I bought a joyo jf15 cause it was on sale on prime day and the description said it was a decent DI amp sim with a good beefy low end. Also cheap. Will report back. For live shows I have a jf14 (the "American") on my pedalboard and never turn it off. Interestingly, whereas the jf14 is a clone/ripoff...

just kidding. fucking forum signup spambots never give up.

I mean, unless you know them personally. In which case I'll activate their account right away, my apologies.

We watched the Wait For It and Losing My Religion episodes. It’s definitely more about the time and context of the song, and its effect on the world, and less about the song itself and how it was created. Even less so than the podcast. Still interesting f though.

You’re all nuts.

I find the hardest part of roasting a butternut squash is cutting the damn thing in half. (Not talking spaghetti squash.)

I could never easily barre less than the whole neck. I can barely avoid barre-ing the E string. I have no idea how one would barre just the top two strings AND form a chord with the rest of your fingers. My hand hurts just thinking about it.

I mean other than: "merge a bunch of video clips together than people sent in" , how much else would there be to it?

Oh my sweet, sweet dear boy.

Nah, my pedals are basically always on, except for delay that I use to make solos sound less inept.

Well, the pedal that’s not always on is the vocal fx.

I mean, I watched the video for those JHS pedals and all I was thinking was HOW CAN YOU TELL THEM APART ON A DARK FUCKING STAGE, JOSH

Y’all make it we’ll put it on the channel!

Jeff "Flapjack" Robertson This stirs something in my lizard brain, but all I can come up with is a sling blade voice saying "They call me flapjack". It's definitely connected to my sister Casey, who is off her god damn rocker quite frequently, shouting "MORE FLAPJACK" constantly during the show aft...

It wasn’t my first performance, since I grew up doing classical music. But SF Live Hot Lunch #1 was the first time I ever performed a song on guitar in front of people, I’m pretty sure.

I didn’t find songwriting until I was around 23 or so.
