interesting day yesterday when i was getting a guit-fiddle lesson from my friend/teacher when some angry crackhead renting next store broke down the door and walked up the stairs

my teacher told him (crackhead drummer) that there were a lot of other people he'd hire before hiring him... and this guy wasnt too happy about it... so he kept calling and threatening him... and when he was told not to call he started sending these creepy text to landline messages...

needless to say i put him in his place when he walked up the stairs after breaking the door and yelling... and that place was at the bottom of the stairs where the cops arrested his ***

[QUOTE=JoshIsNumber3;17797537]uh baseball is huge in most of latin america, basketball is starting to grow significantly in Europe.[/QUOTE]

starting? basketball has been big in europe for a few years now. and baseball is not only huge in latin america, but china, japan, and korea as well. football is primarily an american thing, canadians like it too but they play it a lil differently.

i definitely wouldnt say baseball is an american past time tho. i feel eating pussy is the real american past time.

some dude playing cricket in the park by me last summer got hit by lightning. i always lol at them playing it when im in the park.

Cricket - the game with so many rules that not even the players know what they're doing.

Silly Europeans. Get enough booze in you and you'd go nuts over a dog chasing his tail.

rugby is awesome

Á Bao A Qu 02-08-2010 07:57 PM

That's true.

Aes820 02-08-2010 07:58 PM

Cricket is a game that is misunderstood by many.
Even the players can mistake the ball for an apple.

[quote]In a post-match interview, Afridi told Grandstand's Peter Walsh he did not put the ball in his mouth.

"No, I was trying to smell it and see how it was feeling," he said.

When Walsh suggested teeth are not used for smelling, Afridi responded: "Sometimes you can do".

He then asked Walsh to stop asking negative questions.[/quote]

But with it's complexities, it's many times more interesting than anything like baseball or tennis.

hockey ftw

The_Mop 02-08-2010 08:16 PM

Ice hockey is pretty damn awesome. Coming from a guy who pretty much hates all other forms of sport...

Sup lod... Im selling a TU-2

so far ive gotten two offers... #1 $100

#2 a pair of dimarzio tele pickups (Area T neck and Chopper T bridge) if i add $20 to the TU-2

which should i go for, the pickups are like $250 new after tax and theyve only been installed for about a year?

I want to put them in my MIM tele... which dont say buy a better guitar because i have enough of them and this one has sentimental value

mnemonic 02-09-2010 03:13 PM

flip a coin. if you are disappointed with the result, you should ignore the coin and do the other option.



also, regular standard MIM fenders are usually pretty swe0t if they're set up right. even better when you throw some nice pickups in them.

so many people say otherwise... mine has an awesome neck

other than the pickups...
i need a new nut to accommodate bigger strings
probably some new electronics (pots, switch, jack)
mabye a graph tech kit with saddles and the nut
mabye tuners


edit: im gonna go for the $100

One of the managers at work did me a copy of Dub Side Of The Moon and Radiodread by Easy Star All-Stars, and they're fooking epic. Observe:

My dad brought round Dub Side Of The Moon for me to listen to a few years ago, and since I consider Dark Side to be a work of pure, unadulterated genius and the greatest album ever made, I found it distasteful.

Sad But True 02-10-2010 06:53 PM

I'm a Floyd fan dude but nothing should be immune from interpretation. I thought the intro to Time was hilarious.

Aint it just. The crazy scat solo in Time is brilliant.

Aes820 02-10-2010 08:10 PM

Yeah I liked the Pink Floyd one better than the Radiohead.

Also, this is QI

did a doodle of my professor in a lecture the other day i quite like it i'm a terrible artist tho

mnemonic 02-11-2010 12:51 AM

nice^^



also, sup lod, i was just listening to hessian peel by opeth, and i remembered one time i was really high and i heard that part in the song where the vocals are like reversed or something and i was like OMG I CAN'T UNDERSTAND WORDS it freaked me out, i changed songs to make sure i could still understand words.

Sad But True 02-11-2010 10:42 AM

I wish my lecturers looked like ancient Greeks.

Also what's the best Opeth album to get started on? I avoided them back when I first heard them because I didn't like Akerfelderinosaurustron's screaming/gutteral vocal bits, but now I kinda do.

Still can't spell his name though. I think I missed a umlaut or something.

Modern Iconoclast 02-11-2010 11:09 AM

Blackwater Park. Åkerfeldt has the best growl in metal.

Sad But True 02-11-2010 11:48 AM

I still think growling is boring. I hate it when Tommy from btbam does it, or did it, it was mainly on the earlier stuff. It's just a noise.
