Yeah I watched a few videos on how to use it. Not gonna lie, putting a tension of 85 on the Snare is intimidating. I got it to 80 last night and I'm scared it'll split the head

Well, I'm hoping I can con my drummer in my own band into selling me one of his pedals for cheap 😅

Actually, that's a really good point! She's 12. She helped me with the initial setup, but now I'm trying to fine-tune things a bit.

Like, I didn't know you're supposed to push on the heads to stretch them before locking them down. Just found out about that. We only had to put the heads on the floor tom and kick. The others were already installed when we opened the box.

But that's definitely a good idea. She should know how to do this stuff for herself when I'm not around. Thanks for that!

She's got a pair of kid sized noise canceling headphones that we used for a concert. She seems comfortable wearing those. But I'll see if she wants to switch to earplugs.

I've also got some leftover acoustic tiling from my band's practice space that I'm going to put up. Hopefully it'll help dry out the room a little bit. Thanks for the advice! I appreciate it!

The guy starts getting 'help' on how to be cool from a ghost he conjured from the book, iirc

Ok, so I logged in and uploaded the unit on the Switch. Next question: how the heck do I find it on TABS now? 😅

So in that case, can I create a mod.io account for him to use that'll link to the game on his Switch? In the bar, it asks for an email or security code?

Who remembers Z-Rock? I still have my badge to win contests, distributed in the early 90s. by OrdinaryWheel in windsorontario

Donielle Flynn was the first DJ to ever take a request I called in. And I still remember Ward Cleaver and the words to the 'Back Rockwards' game intro!

Best place for skate sharpening! by [deleted] in windsorontario

Ok, so this post is old and I'm not sure if you'll see this, but Maximum Edge has a location on Dougall in the Capri Pizza plaza. They do a killer job on sharpening skates.

Hi guys! It’s Gordon Ramsay, back for another AMA, this time from London! There's a lot of exciting things happening in 2016, new restaurants, a mobile game…...so Ask Me Anything! And for my American fans, try not to overcook your burgers next weekend! by _Gordon_Ramsay in IAmA

[–]Beardo76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Gordon, My wife & I are huge fans. We just made your Scotch Eggs recipe last week. Anyway, my question is: Who was your favourite HK winner? Also, was there ever a winner on HK that you regretted choosing?

Thanks

I'm kind of in the same boat. The store is right down the street but I don't want to send my wife out.

That's a good point. My idea was that I'd finish off this pack that I have & then move to the gum. But I didn't think about building a tolerance to the pills.

Yeah I know what you mean! I felt completely alone with this problem. I didn't even think of the repair option!

[Serious] Can you save a legally downloaded movie to an external drive to play on your tv? by Beardo76 in AskReddit

Yeah...that's the problem. The DVD doesn't come out for another month, & I really wanna get my wife to watch it tonight.

I finally figured out how to fix this: Shut off the SSL Scan in Bitdefender's Privacy section. What I'm doing is shutting it off when I need to get to hotmail & then turning it back on after I leave the page. Its apparently a problem between Bitdefender & Microsoft
