Third Try?

The last two times I made quinoa I screwed it up.

How will tonight’s attempt fare?

Doing Stuff

I had to break for lunch, but once the bathroom was cleaned and the laundry put away, I started doing stuff.

Portrait Fail

The cat was on my desk. I lined up a sweet portrait mode shot of the cat’s face in the foreground and the candles in the background.

Just as I snapped the cat ran away.

I guess you can still enjoy the candles. I guess. Dumb cat.

Which Klon/Klone is My Favorite

If you’d asked me a few weeks ago I’d have said the KTR without question, but the Ryra has been growing on me like crazy. I’m not sure anymore.

I just put the KTR on the bedroom board so everything RPM Challenge from here on will use it.

Which do I prefer? With a potential return to band practices coming someday (I hope), It’s a question that must be answered.

Oh Good… Snow

Snow… it was 60 degrees out yesterday.

Lazy Saturday, Patches Style

Two More Songs – #RPM2022

Have I started doing nightly wrap ups of the day’s RPM Challenge progress? Not really, but here is exactly that.

I started two new songs today. One started with a bass line and is super simple, though it is in 7/8 time. The other song started on guitar. Both songs have all of the rhythm guitar tracks. One of them still needs a bass line, but I’ll get to that soon.

I’m thinking about changing my pedal chain a little. I’m using a Ryra The Klone for that mid range boosting Klon thing. I have an actual Klon, a KTR not a Centaur because I am not made of money ya know, on the board in the cellar and I can hear it talking to me. What’s it saying? It’s say, hey Rob… a Ryra? What the fuck?

The Ryra pedal is spectacular, but the KTR is maybe a smidgen spactacularer. I think I am going to swap them for the rest of the month. Once the band starts playing again the Klon will be back on the big board and will live over at Mike the Bass Player’s house.

For now though, pictures…
