Awful news. Only met a couple of times but all if this love is justified. Very obviously a wonderful man.

Aye. The new Ty record is on Drag City so no Spotify. Dammit.

Highly reccomend the Ty Segall Band: Slaughterhouse record (which is on sptfy). Like a noisier, garagier, psychier Sabbath. It's f*cking immense.

Awesome. Been on a bit of Reatard (and Ty Segall) kick lately.

^^Sorry LW, can't think of anyone off the top of my head. Good bass players are always hard to find though so I'm sure you won't be bandless for too long.

^^^^Cheers tibbly. both of those sound right up my street.

Fibished the Goldfinch recently. Started so strongly then fell of a cliff about 2/3 of the way though. Huge disappointment.

Currently reading H is for Hawk by helen Macdonald which I'm really enjoying. Darkly twisted and very personal nature memoir. More about grief and obsession than nature really. Dig.

Also dipping in and out of of a bio of Thomas Cromwell and the rather dated Songwriters on Songwriting (a collection of interviews based firmly in the late 80s).

Yeah well, time to put my wallet where my mouth was. No more p*ssing around with budget stuff being uhappy with the results.

Mate of mine is selling one of these. http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/sep05/articles/uala610.htm

Anyone interested?

Holy sheet. I finally did it. Just dropped more than the cost of my last car on a mic and an interface.

Am a bit shell-shocked but looking fwd to getting it on with tube mic and quality pre-amp goodness.

Loooooool! Wow. Is that real?

Nope, sorry. I think I'm having a rush of blood to the head and am about to drop £1k on a microphone. Mojave MA-300 since you're asking. Gahhhhhh!

That's what god made ^ for

dooks. wonderful girl. always had a crush on her.

winnr.

^^Hahaha. Not far off.

Didn't see the fit guide. My f*cking work laptop makes it all but impossible to see any website as it was intended. Cheers.

Can anyone advise on the fit of the Gustin slim (or whatever the fit between straight and skinny is called)? The straights I have are nice but definitely on the wide side. I have been told I have "rugby player calves" and my thighs aren't slim either. Tempted to just order a pair anyway but would be bummed if after 12 weeks or whatever I couldn't get them on... Anyone got exact measurements?

Black British/middle eastern Muslim funsamentalist terrorist is basically all of Hollywood's stock baddies rolled into one handy uber-trope.

Anal Ballerinas (II)

Still waiting for the black on black Gustins I ordered back in 2007 (or so it feels like). Think they're due next week. Slightly worried that the none more black (warp and weft) will be overkill.

Not strictly denim but has anyone ordered any jacket soff Gustin? I'm quite liking the waxed cotton trucker...

i'm still having an identity crisis

Sweet.

I've hit a wall HARD this week. Decided to knock up some simple acoustic versions of things to keep the band page ticking over with new content but oh my DAYS have I lost my pizzaz. 27 takes of an acoustic guitar track. A similar number of the vocal. I've thought all of the mojo out of it. Urgh.

On the plus side, I am writing some awesome shiz and am booked into to record in germany on 19th -22nd Sep and lookign at dates at Gold Top and Soup Studios in October.

Oh and found this in my plugins and have been enjoying it on guitars very much:

Also bought this: http://www.valhalladsp.com/valhallavintageverb

yum.

All of which is cheerfully distracting me from the painfully obvious fact that I SUCK.

You need this.

sale?

I don't think i could ever do this. I got as far as 7 most of my most all time favourite beady white guy folk-rock faves then went "Gah! no jazz... no soul... no classical... no BEATLES or DYLAN wtf?"

Nope. I could never do this.

Will do. Been trying to dechipher the cuts on the Hanes uk bulk order site this morning but gave eup as everything not in XXXL was out of stock anyway. Cheers.

I'm still on the search for the perfect plain tee. Been researching tee shirt shapes and cuts, measuring up old favourites and trying to figure out exactly what it is I like about some and dislike about others. Got so far that I've been genuinely pondering the logistics of setting up a crowd-funded bespoke tee service along the lines of gustin but for specific cuts and sizes as opposed to styles. Short of that, who does light cotton tees with a slightly waisted fit. Not clingy "fitted" but just with a very slight taper.
