A Brit walks into a diner in Berkeley…

I’m probably going to put my H1’s and Yamaha receiver over there but we’ve got a bunch of cubicle walls to move in first.

And chauffeuring his wife’s friends around, and the nurses, and reheating his cold coffee, and the sarong again.

AKA Grasshopper.

The biggest plan is to finish setting up the new space for rehearsals and podcast/recording studio.

We are moving into our new studio this evening. I guess I’ll have to figure out which big speakers I can get in there for playback.

Latest video from the band.

It’s going to be an inch or two wider than a dreadnought since it is based off a Jumbo body but still about 2” narrower than the Taylor/Klein basses.

@Marvel this was the company some acquaintances of mine used for restoring some reel to reel tapes. https://welcometo1979.com/tapetransfers/ you can listen to their album here, http://vibraflux.eraverb.com/ Craig had a vlog series about the process and how they rediscovered the tapes after so many years.

Spammer.

The now discontinued Taylor AB-1 is the only one I’ve ever played and actually liked for a true acoustic instrument. I had a Godin A4 fretless that was a great instrument but it needed to be plugged in.

Sold some unused gear and picked up a new low frequency generator.

My KP-250s sound great from across the street. Powered by a Crown XLS-1002.

Books are lies from the past.

It’s 15°in SP. Ive got to drive the estranged wifey to a doctor’s appointment this morning. Very appreciative of the heated seats in the Honda on a day like today.

Our latest music video just dropped.

The other Josh(guitar) finished the first video. I’m going to go make some afternoon coffee.

Oh yeah, supposedly the kids are going back to school tomorrow on a 3 hour delay. They have only had one day of school since Dec 20th.

The band made it over the mountain to TN on Saturday for our music video shoot. We were able to shoot everything on schedule and finish up in time to make our dinner reservation. This week we’ve got to practice and nail down a handful of songs for a gig at a private party this Saturday.

It’s 15° in Spruce Pine and finally cool enough to pull my Lands’ End expedition parka out of the closet. We had some flurries this evening but not enough to accumulate. The schools are on a 2 hour delay tomorrow after being off all week due to “weather”. I ran up to my guitarists studio earlier and we worked out the shot list for some music videos we are shooting this weekend. It will be interesting to see how we can make it work since the guitarist and I are going to be the videographers.

The weather is fine, it’s just winter.

Whoever wrote that press release misspelled Sonus Faber.

Let’s talk about this once you get back.

A few years back we got some Infocus touch screen displays for two of the classrooms at work. I mounted the first one by myself and thought it was pretty heavy. I checked the manual and it said the thing weighed 117 lbs. I got my coworker to help with the second one and he complained the entire time about how heavy it was.
