Slide? Oh Please No

The last time I did car singing I finished what I had planned quick so I did a re-recording too. I didn’t have rhythm guitars down so I was working off an old scratch track. Tonight I put the guitars down… all of them… oh, so many tracks.

Four tracks of fat finger flubbing rhythm guitars (two takes, each with two mics for a total of four tracks)

Six tracks of lead guitar. Three takes, two mics each. One take was my usual guitar sound, one was a cleanish sound, and the third was tons of fuzz and feedback and… and… slide.

I am the worst slide player on Earth but don’t fret, I only used it for noise, and I’m probably going to play the two tracks backwards. You’re all safe. Trust me.

Grooviest iPhone Stand Ever

Unfortunately the one I’m shooting in the pictures is using my iPod Touch whose battery will likely die within minutes. I should think about plugging it in.

Christmas Amp

Did I mention I got a new amp for Christmas?

Post-Christmas Cat

We are leaving Christmas in place until the inauguration is over and the nazi Cheeto is gone and Patches is all for it.

CPAP Cleaner

I got a machine to sanitize the moving parts of my CPAP machine. It’s cool. It nukes the crap out of stuff with UV light for five minutes and then poof, disinfected. I’m still going to need to wash the dried up drool out of the mask though. Grody to the Max, man*.

*My spoiler free review of Wonder Woman 84 is as follows: I am so glad the 80’s are over and I have zero nostalgia for that time. None. Nil. Zip. Nada.

Post-Christmas Recovery

I saved all of the boxes that our billion lock down deliveries came in for the month leading up to Christmas. That way if one of us needed a box to wrap, there would be something perfect just lying around.

While the plan was perfectly successful, it did leave this….
