Happy Birthday Cleek. I am only 6 months behind you (18/03/71). Do you have any birthday plans? Few beers tonight?
You went to the dentist on your birthday? Are you some form of Sadist? :)
maybe a few beers tonight – probably nothing special, though. i gotta catch a plane in the morning.
Catch a plane eh? Business or pleasure?
pleasure – a wedding reception. should be fun… except for the plane part. it’ll be exciting to see what we’re not allowed to carry-on this month.
Happy Birffday man! and have a good trip. i think on this occasion, you should resurrect SmallerAnimals – The Band.
thanks.
i’ve been thinking about it, dabbling, got a few song sketches on tape (actually in .MPG from my digicam). and, happily, my lovely wife bought me a real, live BigMuff for my birffday! rock. can’t wait to try it out.
know of any good, inexpensive, digital recorders ? my old hand-held cassette recorder i used to use to capture song ideas is beat.
mmm, how “inexpensive”? i have the Edirol R-1 and i really like it. built-in mics work great for non-loud rock stuff. basically the mic-pre-amps blow out with super loud, lower frequencies. the R-09 is the replacement. only shortfall is that it doesn’t charge batteries when plugged in (either via AC or USB2). http://www.rolandus.com/products/productlist.aspx?ParentId=114
yeah… maybe a little more inexpensive than those… :) they look totally sweet, though.
Happy, happy Cleek.
Neds Atomic Dustbin, I think I saw them in 1991 too. The double bass attack.
Have a great day.
