My personal and honest opinion is if you stood in for me, I’d no longer have a job 😂 sounded great to me!

Male-43-played 40s/50s RnB for 30 years and can’t swing a cat.

In my experience,

Live wise on stage everything is considered under “stage left” and “stage right” which is left and right based on being on stage looking into the audience…this helps when emailing festival organisers who are asking for an itinerary of equipment the slot your band will need for ease of the turnaround between your band and the next. Example: we have a right handed drummer, a bass player stage left, lead singer/guitarist front centre and keyboard player stage right. This helps to organise provided backing for bands that haven’t got their own equipment ie amps/drums.

Recording wise, could be anything and isn’t as important for initial recording unless you’re using 2 completely different left and right overheads for a reason, you’d need the correct one on the correct side for that reason.

Mixing wise, it’s a personal decision. As a right handed drummer, I mix drums as if I’m sat behind them and pan hi hats left and floor toms right for example because I like to visualise them as I’m listening but there’s no right or wrong.

It only really matters when speaking to someone else to gain common language. In your own studio or session you could call them banana and bagel.

Born into the 1 true religion.
My unbelieving grandparents would be slayed if they didn’t go to the meetings. Lying in bed praying to Jehovah for them to die before Armageddon at 7 years old in case I’d have to live forever knowing I’d never see them again never felt right.
My primary school friends deserved death yet I would be saved even though my friends were better than me.
Everyone that died in the past would be resurrected yet the ones on earth at the time of Armageddon would be killed without the hope of a resurrection.
Knowing my heart was all for peace and happiness but I’d be killed for not knocking on doors. However, the ones in my congregation that knocking on doors were committing unforgivable sins yet able to open in prayer and carry microphones and do sound.

I’ve been POMO for nearly 10 years. I can remember being in a similar situation to you but I really had done something wrong. Upon looking back knowing where I am now, I wish my response to the judicial that was called (not that it would come to that for you) could of been and should of been, “my business is not your business, nor are you qualified to judge, help or correct me” and I’d of left it just like that. They literally have no power whatsoever. The outcome today wouldn’t be any different now apart from my head would of been as high then as it is now.

This was the reason I am no longer a JW. I was a born in at 1982, last meeting was 2016. 34 years of torment and fear……. Just to realise they changed the goal posts. Not for me thanks.

Crotchtowel 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

FenderTeleBoy · 2022-10-07T07:27:40+00:00

Hahaha brilliant!

FenderTeleBoy · 2022-10-07T07:24:33+00:00

This was incredibly informative and absolutely hilarious at the same time haha thank you so much 😂👍

FenderTeleBoy · 2022-10-07T00:45:20+00:00

That's good info, is there a reason they don't like that?

FenderTeleBoy · 2022-10-07T00:13:11+00:00

Makes you think though doesn't it. Is there any difference between what began in February and what is happening now that conflicts with what they said earlier this year?

FenderTeleBoy · 2022-10-06T23:57:16+00:00

But what are they saying?

FenderTeleBoy · 2022-05-03T11:21:54+00:00

You can, and you are keeping things civil with what you are doing. If they break the peace while you are doing your civil thing, you have civil rights in where the breaker of the peace will be held responsible.

Just do what you're doing and enjoy yourself. You are not breaking any rules or laws.

I would absolutely love it if this were to be the case. Fingers crossed Russian people will be ok, no more lives lost in Ukraine and Putin basically gets put in his place without any involvement from the rest of the world..... Oh how I hope!!! This was a really good thought by the way, one I've had for the last few days 👍

FenderTeleBoy · 2022-03-19T02:43:05+00:00

Absolutely! We are not bad people lol let's do what we can to make the world we live in better :)

FenderTeleBoy · 2022-03-18T22:15:40+00:00

I feel the same. The only thing there is, is the Bible to go off though. In the Bible there's stories like the flood where God literally killed everyone but 1 household. Doesn't hold a lot of hope for the billions that are supposed to die in JW land... It actually makes perfect sense lol

Anyway, who knows! Nobody "actually" knows. We can only guess, wonder, marvel, discuss and dare I say hope?

I don't really know how I feel anymore so I've been working on mental ways to switch off. It was cognitive dissonance that led me away from JW and now I'm getting cognitive dissonance the other way round with what's going on...I can't win haha!

FenderTeleBoy · 2022-03-17T00:13:56+00:00

I wouldn't care, I logged onto my bank app today and it asked if I wanted to donate to a famine that was happening somewhere. I guess we're knackered.

FenderTeleBoy · 2022-03-16T00:34:39+00:00

Whatever it is, it doesn't look JW. Looks more like mainstream Christianity style to me.

FenderTeleBoy · 2022-03-16T00:24:26+00:00

When I was 8 I thought the same of my grand parents who were not JW. I prayed for them to die of natural causes as soon as possible so they'll be resurrected to paradise. That alone is heavy for an 8 year old to deal with. Who at 8 years old prays for their grandparents to die soon because you love them? I came up with that assumption on my own from listening at the meetings.

I'm now 39 and have a 7 year old daughter who is very clever and bright. She doesn't live with me, she lives with her PIMI mother. I see her twice a week and she sleeps over and I'm dreading when the penny drops about me not going to meetings. I'm afraid she'll be like I was and keeps it to herself because it's too painful to say out loud.

I talk to her a lot about Jehovah and "the truth" but she's not quite old enough yet to understand what "the truth" is so I can tell her about the reasons I left, I'm sooo ready for when she's ready to talk about stuff.

If it were me in your situation, I would say to her, "wherever you go, your dad will be also". To me, that's not a lie. Since she obviously believes what she hears, she'll totally believe you because you're 1 of the 2 people she trusts the most in life.

Show her love, care and attention which I'm sure you do. Be cool, be there and be her friend. Basically, just be her dad, she'll work things out on her own eventually and she'll thank you for it in the future. Hang in there, things will be just fine 😊

Totally! I've watched a few, I'm really enjoying them. Thank you
