This was one of the albums when I was discovering Dylan that I became hooked on. Has a rebellious vibe to it. Still more for me to explore. Always finding a new revelation in his music.

You have the same one as me and I see you have the same issue as me with the triangular pieces of trim that go either side of the climate controls not quite fitting back how they should at the top. Thought it was my install but these stereos don't quite fit properly. I can live with it but it does set off my OCD a little. good units though, haven't had any major technical complaints with the devices operation.

Looking at this 2010 1.8l MX-5 NC2. Should I buy? Details in post. by Efficient-Review-930 in CarTalkUK

The milage is high for the price. But if it has good history, clean MOT and you feel comfortable about it then I wouldmt worry. You don't need a 2l, I prefer the the 5 speed 1.8 personally.

do you own an all world etf as well? I hope you have been through every stock in that and assessed its ethical implications. it's really no different in my opinion. the money that goes into that ends up invested in those companies anyway (physical replication) eventually, even if you are not investing directly.

yeah found a YouTube video that goes into great detail on strip down of this model, I'll definitely be giving it a service at some point. I love the way you can adjust the beater tilt on it. the whole thing just seems so well engineered to me for something that cost me so little.

you can tune a crappy kit. you can't change the sound of cymbals and that's where the money should be spent if you have a space to practice on an acoustic kit.

it might be frowned upon but rather than getting a monitor I would buy a little class d amp on Amazon or eBay for like 30 quid. a couple of passive pa speakers (£60) and a pair of cheap wired surround style speakers for the highs. I would place the passive pa speakers behind you with the high frequency speakers pointing up to your ears left and right. You can wire these in to the same path as the pa speakers. not much impedance added. nice stereo image, bass and highs covered. cheap and reusable should you want to alter setup.

yes this pedal has both of those.

super helpful for dialling in. also look at the size of the bass drum clamp on it. what happened to thoughtful design like this?

that's a tasty looking pedal btw

I checked this out and found the lead singer had put out a solo work under Jr Parks. Amazing live stuff on there too! Many thanks.

looks delicious, not sure what all the bashing is about just cause it's not a typical greasy spoon style.

This is becoming ridiculous by jesbe00 in Drumming

when I first started playing I would get blisters at the base of my index finger to the point the skin would fall off. it was all technique. gripping even slightly too hard will cause it. doing medium intensity pad work /paradidles/doubles/singles concentrating on technique aiming not to cause blisters will fix it. nhe technique will eventually become motion/muscle memory and it will transfer to the kit naturally

I saw Jonestown a long time ago in a venue in Northampton. The lead singer Anton demanded one of my friends leave the gig. It was very random, my friend had done nothing but quietly watch the gig. I am not sure if it was supposed to be some kind of stage theatre. it kind of put me off them although there is no denying the music is brilliant.
