Because then I would have to acknowledge the fact I failed my essay and do that for resubmission and I'm not sure I can take the humilliation.

What was the essay on?

ive talked to jean baudin

hes a condescending prick

and not in the good way

I've emailed him about a couple of things and he's been nothing but helpful to me, so idk

Seems like a nice enough guy from what I've seen of him, but I've never met him and had a conversation with him so I couldn't say for sure. That's the only way to really know what someone is like is to kick it with them.

Someone owning a 9 string bass is a bit of a red flag I suppose.

I really don't give a crap about Jean Baudin. He made a few decent songs with his solo bass stuff, but, for the most, his music is pretty terrible. And I don't really care to have any conversation with him. Nothing against him, he's just another guy that I don't care if I ever speak to.

Not really sure which is probably why I failed. I was cocky and ****ed up. I think it was "essentials and essence of nursing skills" or something. Basically pick a patient and write about their care. Which is hard when your patient has a mild dementia and you've only visited them once.

Christ dude I think you might have a tough time on this essay. Unless visiting the patient is optional.

im just kidding he was very nice

and i like some of his solo songs really nice sense of melody and great composition

I need to pick a prominent, influential figure (band or individual artist) in rock history to write an essay on (pre-1979). I'm thinking Jim Morrison might be kind of fun. Suggestions?

Shouldn't be that hard. I think I was just too arrogant to admit I needed to spend more than just a week doing it and read around more. I didn't even really need to have a real patient, it is pretty easy if you want to just make up a patient with a textbook case rather than use a real one if you don't tell the exam board.

Sterling by Musicman SB14 = sex

That's a good option too.

I considered this too, but somebody in the class is doing Pink Floyd, so he will be heavily covered, I'm sure. I like to write about the uncommon choices as I usually find that my average writing abilities are less important than the interesting topic or stance that I take on a paper.

Keep 'em coming, y'all.

I wish MM made a 6-string 'Ray.

Speaking of six strings, I finally got a new set of strings for my electric guitar today. It always takes me weeks to get around to doing.

They are so damn cheap (compared to the $96 I just spent for my 8-string :upset: ). Every time I buy a some, I buy two or three sets. Usually the DR Dimebag sigs for my electric(s) and some Elixir Nanos for my acoustic.

What strings you usin', gas?

Haha I know hey I bought strings and it didn't even cost me $20, I was like, wtf just happened did I steal.

I'm trying out a set of DR Tite Fits.

Let me know what you think of them. I'm really liking the Dimebags - super heavy bottom and 9's on top.

I'm quite liking them so far for what I use them for which is just, clean sound fingerpicked jazzy stuff.

Oh. Weird. I try to sound super metal and run through 4 distortion/overdrive/fuzz pedals and then into the dirty channel on my amp.

It's awesome.

Haha wow. Fuzzy.

Sometimes I use the second channel on my AG500 to try a bit of overdrive on it.

Could pick someone from the no-wave scene in New York in the 70s. Not many people will know about them.

Charles Manson could be also pretty fun.

Aside from over analyzing [i]The White Album[/i], was he an active musician in or before 1979? That's one of the criterium.

I was just kidding. I use my Line 6 amp and put it on the "crunch" setting, and then change the EQ and drive slightly for my distortion tone. 4 pedals would be insane (almost MSI style) in my book. Haha.

Anyone good with Audition? Whenever I open a wavform, it defaults to spectral view. I want wavform view. Any ideas?

No clue.

I can't wait for tomorrow. Working 40 hour weeks is horrible. Stupid nine-to-five.

40 hours does suck. It's at least 10 hours too few.
