  1. Oh my gosh, you are in for such a treat -- it just gets better and better. It's not perfect, but it's so superior to so many other things in so many other ways, that those minor missteps are easily forgiven. Me: watched season 1 of The Devil's Hour -- what a great show, but I need more, like, yesterday.
  2. This song is amazing, thanks for sharing, will check the rest of the EP out.
  3. I made chicken and veggies and beans soup, and I keep adding ingredients, so I've had enough to last all weekend and then some.
  4. And remember, you cannot spell "parody" without "PR". or soemthing.
  5. Everything he does is worth listening to. Big influence on my (theoretical) style -- I went back and forth on overdubbing, but he showed how playing only the essential music without a lot of overdubbed parts could still work as finished music. This is worth a listen as well: https://www.amazon.com/Twin-Peaks-Season-Music-More/dp/B000W4HFY8
  6. Been listening to a (relative) lot of Ultravox: https://tidal.com/browse/playlist/702f2a1e-5b4d-444b-ba58-4608aa0648f6 But also, new Nemophila album came out yesterday! https://tidal.com/browse/album/259904220
  7. Unholy carp! I am a pseudonym, that part was accurate.
  8. Spicy pork and beans. My first ever, with the Rancho Gordo beans. I made it too spicy, but I can still taste the bean broth! It otherwise came out perfect.
  9. You may also like (instructive video + playlist for simple listening enjoyment):
  10. I'll be honest. HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGe von Karajan fanboi. HUGE.
  11. Carl Stalling had as much to do with my education in classical music as my mother, if not more. "You say that like it's a bad thing." &c.
  12. 3 days?!?!? FFFFUUUUUUUUUU... Mine's an hour, and I sometimes feel I'm the only one who takes it seriously. I had a guy constantly haranguing me to help him circumvent security so he could print stuff out. I reported him. He doesn't work here any more.
  13. Not going to argue with any of that. I, too, thoroughly enjoyed it; I, too... Started this:
  14. Happy belated! (party favour noise)
  15. I wonder if they took into account the windflow created by the helicopter's propellers in the calculations leading up to that jump. </nerd>
  16. Happy birthday, Todd! (party favour noise)
  17. Did you know "Bathtime in Clerkenwell" had lyrics?!?!? link
  18. Earlier today: Nando's Pork Chop -- really enjoying it this time! Maybe I put too much on last time -- this time I only put on a splash. Also helps that I didn't overcook it. Now: Making a second one.
  19. LOL, I usually get those stupid "your shirt makes you look fat" ads, now I get "Norlan whisky glass" ads. Thanks!
  20. Oh, nice, thank you. Even comes in different materials so I can colour-code them. Perfect!
  21. I have, and it's amazing. Easily my favourite work of his. IT DOES REQUIRE PATIENCE. Right up there with Music for Animals by Nils Frahm, if you're familiar with it.
  22. I want multiple pepper mills with handles, as I've become a bit of a black pepper and related snob connoisseur -- I have a thing of Phu Quoc black, Phu Quoc white, Phu Quoc red, pink peppercorns (which are really berries, so gum up the burrs 'n' stuff), regular black (mostly tellicherry, but some are undesignated), timut...or should I go electric? Any thoughts would be appreciated.
  23. I've heard too many horror stories: Don't let them check your bass! Also, Steinberger make a nice headless and bodyless bass. I have one. It was very popular in the late 80's? Geddy Lee played one for a short while. There are multiple threads like this on TalkBass: https://www.talkbass.com/threads/renting-bass-versus-flying.1567076/page-2#post-26555314
