Had a nice night chilling with some friends and doing the pub quiz. Our team came third but it was a good time.


Does your melx get brighter with the guitar tone knob at 0? It does on mine. So weird.

Improvd on a little riff I had, turned into this giant mass of sound that faded off into slight feedback, then started looping stuff and processing the loop with a delay. So much fun. Someone needs to be my Pete Swanson, I'll be your Gabriel.

I got an old Webcor Phonograph for free at a yard sale. It's gonna need new caps right off the bat, and a 3 prong retrofit. I'm not even going to plug it in until at least that's been done. but still, holy shit son, free antiques.

My bandmate and I are playing with putting a multi-head delay emulator VST on the vocals for a new song, and it sounds way better than we had expected. I love when that happens.

^ Awesome.


I was just out hiking trails with some friends. There was a fallen tree that spanned a little ravine, about 30 or 40 feet across and 12-15 high, so I decided to walk across it. Half way across it started to sway a lot and I stopped because there were some overhead branches ahead of me that I worried would throw off my balance. I started shaking a lot, tried to calm myself with self talk but I couldn't stop. I sat there for a minute kind of stuck, but something in me was just like "fuck it, you got here, you can get out". I hopped down and straddled the tree and inched under the branches, then stood back up and walked it out.

It feels good to know I can take charge fairly quickly even when I'm nervous and psyching myself out.
I've had a lot of confidence issues in my life but this was a step in the right direction.
