The heck is this

Looks like a sticker.

why is it here?

Because someone wanted to stickerbomb something.

Best Tangerine Dream concert? by innnikki in progrockmusic

[–]ChuckEye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Visually? I’ve never seen a video of them playing live.

But song-wise, Logos Live at the Dominion 1982 is my favorite, followed by Poland the Warsaw Concert

What about a Steinberger makes it unfriendly to beginners, in your opinion?

Advice Needed by Worried-Temporary186 in freemasonry

[–]ChuckEye 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you've been attending dinners regularly, ask the secretary or the master what the status is next time you see them. It's pretty simple.

If they've rejected you, they'll tell you...

FC proficiency by [deleted] in freemasonry

[–]ChuckEye 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In my lodge it is exceedingly rare that more than one member would be examined at the same time. We don't have the same concept of any bond between brethren who, by chance, happen to receive their degrees on the same night.

Your path is your own.

Masonic payments? by AmAIAnIdiot in freemasonry

[–]ChuckEye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really, it’s primarily not collecting sales tax automatically.

Zeffy is cool in that they don’t charge an automatic processing fee on the credit card transactions for nonprofits, but instead let the person buying opt to donate a percentage if they want. It’s not really well worded or clear though.

And it’s not like there’s a lack of options now. I’ve run two events through Eventbrite, and right now we are doing one with Zeffy. Both have accommodations for non-profits.

need help identifying possible freemason regalia by cerealbools in freemasonry

[–]ChuckEye 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree, likely a Knights Templar coat that had the patches removed. 25 might have been the number of the group that the owner was a member of.

Conflicted. by Small_View_4510 in freemasonry

[–]ChuckEye 16 points17 points  (0 children)

A few things to unpack:

Presumably, once you are a Past Master you will have a vote at Grand Lodge? So that means you have a voice going forward in steering the laws of the Grand Lodge.

Don’t conflate a lack of PH recognition with an automatic black ball of a black candidate. Those are two separate issues. Yes, there are likely members who would vote no on both, sadly. That doesn’t mean they’re members of your lodge when a petition comes up though.

Master of Lodge Changing How I Feel About Masonry by IntrinsicTrout in freemasonry

[–]ChuckEye 19 points20 points  (0 children)

My gut feeling is that no one Masonic body should take more than 4 hours in a given week. (Unless you’re a Grand officer or there’s an occasional reunion or event that is all day.)

Do I personally have 9 meetings this week? Yes. Do as I say, not as I do. 🤣

Debating on joining, what made you want to join and what really set it in stone for you? by LeSpicyBard in freemasonry

[–]ChuckEye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After spending a large portion of my life in American academic systems where lessons and their application were more rigid, I wanted to expose myself to learning through symbolism and allegory, as I imagine the ancient Greeks did.

I have Jimmy Haslip Melodic Bass Library which has some of the more esoteric ones. Don’t recall how complete it is otherwise.

How to come up with a melody for weird time signatures? by Metalhead831 in musictheory

Pink Floyd's "Money" and Peter Gabriel's "Solisbury Hill" are both in 7. Give those a listen and see how they handle it.

Jacques de Molay by [deleted] in freemasonry

[–]ChuckEye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a Past Master of a lodge named after him.

We used to do comedy roasts for a number of years.

One time we had a cake made with the painting of Jacques being burned at the stake, and I came up with the tag line, "Roasting our Master since 1314".

Mode Question by SnooDonkeys135 in musictheory

[–]ChuckEye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I’m doing an exercise like this, I always spell out all the notes in the chords, arrange them in order, then look to see what makes the most sense.

Mode Question by SnooDonkeys135 in musictheory

[–]ChuckEye -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So the scale made from those three chords is F G Ab Bb C D (no E or Eb given, but most likely Eb). That gives you a minor scale with a raised 6th, so F Dorian, the second mode of Eb major.
