God damnit I'm so sick of people mixing quiet and quite.




Jesus christ I have no life.

Darn, how'd that slip past me. I usually catch mistakes like that.

So. I went into the local pet store today in order to chat up the chick working there. Turns out she's the manager and I may have a new job. (I hate my current job). Everything is coming up Ryan.

New computer and internet too. And this is what I do with that...

Sigh. Shame I have no money now.

Drunken deros don't tend to congregate at pet stores, that's a win.

Oh man. I should tell you what happened on Wednesday night...


Should so tell you.





















Yeah anyway, one of our long timers finally just lost his ****, got into a punch on and quit on the spot. Store just shut down like 3 hours early and he can never work for any hotel or shop affiliated with Woolworths again. I don't blame him either, it's that stressful sometimes haha.

That's life hey, eventually, you just have to start taking people down with you.

My ultimate life's plan at the moment is to open a pet store. Man, I'm so ambitious.

Oh, in other news, we kicked out our drummer!

Pets are pretty cool.

Wow. I shouldn't be this bored on a Saturday night, it's kinda sad really.

Holy **** Riley. Like. Get a life.

Also, was I the only one that thought Terminator Salvation was a pretty good flick?

And take those Mighty Boosh references out of your user title.

I haven't seen Salvation.

Bassnectar was ridiculous. And I got to see Billy Corgan get hit with a variety of glowsticks

Okay guys, who wants a free download of my old band's EP? I did the art too. Start with Nightwalker or Juju Fever, those are my favourites.

Any of you have any suggestions? I know some of you are way bigger tech heads/tone freaks than I am.

What a disappointing buy. :( The guy totally lied to me. I'm trying to get him to pay, in full, for the work that needs to be done. If not, I'm contacting eBay.

Damn dude, you should be able to get him sorted out for sure. I mean, false advertising like that is a serious breach of eBay rules isn't it?

Yeah, but, to be fair, this guy knows nothing about instruments. From what I've gathered from his feedback/the items he's sold, he just gets stuff from close outs near where he lives and sells it. All of his feedback is positive except for mine. I'm the only one out of 200 or so people who has found fault with this eBayer, so I don't think it was malicious.

That said, I don't want to get him in trouble with eBay or the legal system or anything; I just want him to pay to have my guitar fixed. I paid for a working, fully functional guitar (as advertised) and didn't get it. Logically, I think he should be liable to pay for the repairs.

Any suggestions on a pickup replacement, gaslight?

Nah sorry man, I've never actually changed a pick-up in any of my instruments.

Definitely press him to cover your costs though, if he's an honest guy then he'll do the right thing. Minimum he should do is refund you your money and pay return shipping back to himself.

Cheers, mate.

are all drummers ****tards?

whitesquares, take pictures. Talk to the seller, and if he doesn't offer to remedy the situation in some way (either w/ full refund or paying your back for the repairs), you can file a complaint with eBay and PayPal. Buyers have the serious edge nowadays, so you'll be fine, especially given that it's under $500.

Yeah, so far, the seller has agreed to pay $100 for the repairs, but I want him to pay for 100% of the repairs. Granted, I'll probably get a Seymour Duncan pickup put in the bridge instead of the stock Fender Enforcers, which will run a bit extra, so I have no problem paying cash on top of what a new Enforcer costs, but the labor, etc., should be the seller's responsibility. He, after all, sold me a guitar that does not meet the standards he described.

The whole kit and kaboodle (the guitar plus shipping) was $595, though, not under $500. I'm pretty sure I'm still covered by Buyer Protection, though. The odds are definitely on my side. eBay would rather have satisfied buyers than sellers, I'd imagine.

I thought you said you got the guitar for $200. My bad. It'll still be covered. I just meant that anything under $500 is chump change and puts you into no-questions-asked territory.

Take pictures.

It's not unreasonable to have the seller pay for 100% of repairs, minus the cost of the new pickup. The wiring alone shouldn't cost more than $100. Hell, I could do it for less than $100.

Anyone know that dubstep track by Mt Eden called Sierra Leone?

I'm trying to find a version of it without all the 'wobwobwobwobwob' LFO action going on, as I hate that part of dubstep so much. I like the rest of the vibe of the track though, it's kinda like a chilled out Roger Sanchez, and I'd love that on my iPod. Anyone know where I could find such a thing? Or possibly the individual tracks so I can remix it myself to not be a dubstep song ¬_¬

My google-fu has failed me thus far.

dubstep rides primarily on lfo though....

yeah. i don't like dubstep as a general rule. i just think it'd probably be a decent enough track to stand on its own without the LFO.

infact, i'd love to do a more breakcore remix of it - more glitched up, some proper drums and tight sub bass, rather than just WOBWOBWOBWOBWOBWOBWOB

Ah, I can't stand dubstep. It's just not my bag.

the ONLY time dubstep is good is in a place where you can crank it loud, and get the full feeling of the bass from decent subs. so basically just in clubs. for home stereos and mp3 players, its pretty lame.

its also good when you're high apparently. i've never been high and listened to dubstep though ;p

all in all though, dubstep seems like a bit of a fad anyway, so we'll be back to proper drum n bass soon enough :)

I've never listened to dubstep with a sub, so I guess I can't be fairly biased against it.
