I tried hitting on Snow White when we were in Disney. My wife (at the time) wasn't too pleased. Snow didn't seem to mind.

It's a rule that they HAVE TO stay in character. I believe they watch the "Being Hit On By Creeps" DVD on their first day of training.

Evening dudes

Hi Guys. My bro bought his fave bass today. An Epiphone Thunderbird Pro IV Active bass in Natural. 7 or 9 piece body. Very nice.

Plus we're thinking of doing a new Kotow album. Gonna start writing.

millahh · « **Reply #5080 on:** August 20, 2016, 10:26:12 AM »

Perhaps the best thing about those Epi T-birds is that they actually used a real bridge, not that three-post atrocity that gets used on the passive models.

My bro once had an Epi EB-0 bass and that used one of those with a single attachment to the body which would always come undone and just casually pop out.

Horrible tone too. Wooly as fuck.

ReaperKK · « **Reply #5082 on:** August 20, 2016, 11:40:19 AM »

that's a hell of a nice looking bass.

Thanks KK.

I have absolutely nothing against Epiphones. I had two that were great !

Yes, nice bass.

So my buddy's country band is in the running for 2 awards for the Ventura County Music Awards. Best Country Band and Best Live Band. They played a showcase for Best Country Band a few weeks ago and killed it. They wound up being moved to the last slot of the night and given extra time (Each band was given an hour)... because they were the only full band there who can play a 3 hours worth of material (Originals and Covers) without skipping a beat.

And then last night was the Best Live Act showcase. They were basically playing against an 80's style hard rock band (who were pretty good), a newer rock band (who's guitarist is a douchebag I knew in High School, and their music reflected that), and then the band who was supposed to be playing after them was a metal band. Well when my buddy's band went on, they were so tight and got the crowd (which consisted of fans of every genre and from all walks of life) moving enoght that the last act BACKED OUT. So they finished their set and the guy putting on the show ran up to the stage and said the other band backed out... and they were free to play a longer set. Again... absolutely KILLED IT.

Yes they are a country band, but they play a lot of rock too. think my buddy is their secret weapon. He can sing. So they throw a couple songs that are total crowd pleasers into the mix (Walk This Way being one of them).

Oh yea, and during the evening I had a conversation with the dude who's band it basically is (its The Rick Miller Band. He is Rick Miller.. haha). He was telling me how he grew up in a nice quiet southern baptist household listening to country, and then discovered Metallica and Black Sabbath when he was in his teens.. He grew up playing in a bunch of metal cover bands and what not, and then edged himself back into country. He also mentioned Dream Theater out of the blue and how bad ass they are. So the dude is a country artist with roots in metal and appreciates prog. I knew there was a reason why I liked his material.

I've never seen so many words about Country Music.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #5090 on:** August 20, 2016, 07:31:48 PM »

That's because country musicians don't have an extended vocabulary. I'm sure Bob Newhart would agree.

King Postwhore · « **Reply #5091 on:** August 20, 2016, 07:35:04 PM »

I'll never get rid of that quote.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #5092 on:** August 20, 2016, 07:38:25 PM »

I love it!

King Postwhore · « **Reply #5093 on:** August 20, 2016, 07:40:09 PM »

When my wife then girlfriend met my brother for the first time she said he reminded me of Bob Newhart. I laughed really hard hearing that.

Killing time. Panda and I got into a really stupid argument about something... so instead of hanging out with her this evening as I was planning to, I am going out to another show of my buddy's. This time his Classic Rock cover band is playing. Haven't seen these guys in a month or so. Good people.

He should be picking me up within an hour.

I'm not driving... so that means

Nothing much man just waiting for my flight to arrive. Was supposed to be in the air by now. What's happening with you?

Prog Snob · « **Reply #5099 on:** August 20, 2016, 09:32:19 PM »

Looking for something to watch. I'm tired, though.

ReaperKK · « **Reply #5100 on:** August 20, 2016, 09:34:18 PM »

How have you been sleeping these days?

I'm taking the first part of my CCNA in september btw

Prog Snob · « **Reply #5101 on:** August 20, 2016, 09:36:26 PM »

Sleeping is still the same. Bad nights and good nights.

More importantly, you're taking the first exam! How confident do you feel about everything?

ReaperKK · « **Reply #5102 on:** August 20, 2016, 09:54:31 PM »

Pretty confident. I'm doing the N+ next week which I studied for at the same time as the ccna and it the N+ really helped with understanding cisco concepts.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #5103 on:** August 20, 2016, 09:59:28 PM »

The N+ is definitely an easier exam, but it's good to get through the basics.

ReaperKK · « **Reply #5104 on:** August 20, 2016, 10:37:27 PM »

yea I figured I'd knock it out while studying for the ccna so there was a lot of overlap

JayOctavarium · « **Reply #5105 on:** August 21, 2016, 12:53:45 AM »

Not much drinking tonight. The band opened up with a rare rendition of No Quarter. So epic.

Also... Apparently I'm part of the band introductions now. Dude introduces the band, then his wife, then my buddy's gf and I. Pretty cool.

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #5106 on:** August 21, 2016, 12:55:35 AM »

OMG JAY YOU'RE FAMOUS NOW!

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #5108 on:** August 21, 2016, 01:13:45 AM »

That explains the crazy late time.
