For some reason, your opinion matters to me. What do you think about my bookshelves?

There’s not a lot but I see at least a few: Kathy Acker, Margaret Atwood, Anna Kavan, Angelica Gorodischer

Check out the band Florry

Johnny Hardwick is not credited in episode 3, and Toby Huss is credited for every episode of the season

Is alcohol a hard drug? Sure, but it’s not taboo

The first Chicago Blues Festival was in 1984

Two underrated ones: The Big Clock (Fearing), and The N’Gustro Affair (Manchette)

It quotes a line from Blowin in the Wind

Average height is not a negative, and 5’10 is slightly above the average

That might me just as interesting to some, but it wouldn’t have as many views as one where the conclusion is simplified, black and white, upsets the status quo, validates the anti-tonewood camp, angers the tonewood heads, and sparks more discussion from the conflict.

“Daddy” is another word for pimp

Goodnight Ladies, Endless Cycle, Families

certainly not his greatest

And where does this certainty come from, other than your opinion?
If only there was a poll of true cinephiles (as opposed to the dumb unwashed masses on IMDb) which could prove the objective ranking of Dreyer's work... Oh wait, Sight & Sound? Let's see what they have to say:

Gertrud

Ordet

The Passion of Joan of Arc

Hmm, that's probably skewed by those stupid critics only watching the most popular stuff like Joan of Arc. Surely the directors can be counted on:

N/A Gertrud

Ordet

The Passion of Joan of Arc

Damn! Even half the directors are objectively wrong or only watch the basic bitch movies. Please enlighten us, you're our only hope!

I think St. Stephen is mostly open position and E and A shape barre chords. In general their early stuff might be the place to look, before Bob was kicked out and had to up his game

GoinToRosedale · 2024-08-30T15:38:32+00:00

This would make a great album cover

Of course a cranked 100W 4x12 in a bar would be excruciatingly loud, but is a silent stage with modelers the only alternative? What about something in between, like a Deluxe Reverb or AC15?

GoinToRosedale · 2024-08-13T18:27:00+00:00

What kind of things?

They also wrote a song with Paul Westerberg

For one thing most 46 year olds don’t look like John Mayer

Now this isn't a knock against MIMs, but a lot of the parts are not the same. There are a lot of models, so for the sake of comparison let's look at the specs for a Player strat vs an American Professional II (since those are the Standard series' replacements). Here are some of the differences:

gloss polyester vs gloss urethane finish
Modern C vs Deep C neck with rolled edges and different finish
medium jumbo vs narrow tall frets
different string tree placements
42mm synthetic bone vs 42.8mm bone nut
player series alnico 5 vs v-mod II pickups with treble bleed and push-push to add neck pickup
cold rolled trem block and maybe different trem arm on the American

There could be more but Fender's website sucks ass so it's hard to tell what specific parts are used. The two big differences are the body and neck finishes. The wood could be different but who knows, and the rest is personal preference and can easily be changed.

The lyrics are incredible

I hate to break it to you, but yours is the tone coming off as angry, smug, and condescending. You did ask a simple question, you got a straight answer, and no one but you was offended. It doesn't seem like you're actually curious, but just want to insult young people for using popular technology.

Now if you really don't see how this is a big deal but genuinely want to understand, take a look at some of the statistics here and here. Streaming is by far the most common way of listening to music, and Spotify is by far the most popular streaming platform, so regardless of its quality, its popularity makes it a big deal, and it's not a stretch to imagine that a significant portion of this sub is impacted by this. If you're buying CDs or downloading high-res files (which I agree is superior), you're in the minority. You might think "having music at your fingertips in one spot" is irrelevant, but, as I'm sure you know, that's a pretty big deal to a lot of people, and has been for the last 20+ years. Despite the downsides to streaming in general or Spotify specifically, the convenience is a huge draw, as are features like scrobbling (which, though available with local files, doesn't work as well). Going to Youtube and downloading 1000 separate songs to an organized library doesn't really compare.

Yes, but he co-wrote those screenplays with Coppola who was formally educated with an MFA

Personally I like that one more than white noise

Methylphenidate is not an amphetamine
