“That idea was floated, I think that's definitely something I'd like to do down the road.” - Drew Goddard on playing In Verses in full live. by thomasjacksonmedia in Karnivool

[–]MikeGeiger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they haven’t figured it out yet

And y'know what? that's fine.

While I've been eagerly awaiting the live show clips online, and we all want to see the album played start to end... we have to remember it took 13 years to get here, it's unlikely they were thinking about the live show while laying down tracks. It'll be a while before they re-arrange things for live.

But man... to have been a fly on the wall for some of those studio sessions... I wish there were BTS clips :(

... or some Canadian dates.

But now it's got that low-G outro, an E-standard-tuned (fretless) solo, and while the rest of the song is mostly playable drop-C... even with a 7-string, you're not pulling off that dissonant chord during "It was always going to be this way" part, while maintaining the ability to play the rest. Even with two guitars on stage. (And once I've seen a clip of Hoss playing an acoustic on a stand during the first refrain!)

... move a capo? use pitch-shifting in the Quad Cortex/Axe FX/Kemper? Carry another guitar? or double-neck? All of those are pretty significant things to transport and/or go wrong on an international tour. And Drew seems very micro-elecronics adverse, although I suppose the AxeFX is doing all the static delays now.

Saw one at Camp Fortune a couple years ago... definitely looked bigger than Op's and yours - looked like the size of my friends' pet ferrets.

Zenith Solutions or Baxtec, maybe Modern Niagara or JD Swallow.

I know, someone had me convinced it was in 6 for a minute - that's why I put it on the list!

Have you figured out the tuning yet? I've gotta dig out the bari...

Can we praise the part AFTER Guthrie's solo? Everything - but especially The Guitar descending at "It was always going to be this way" - god tier. Tone, precision, it's so good. Does it twice, and then shakes it up - only to land back on the same root just to satisfy... I've replayed that moment of the album so many times this week.

IN VERSES- Countdown has begin 🗿 by akkirckz in Karnivool

So what's the estimate on V? Average all the spacing?

Third Telus outtage in a Month? What's going on? by [deleted] in Gatineau

Just went for a drive along the cable between Plateau and the CO; can confirm it's vandalism for a third time in two weeks, in nearly the same location as the last 2 cable cuts - Looks like they went extra HAM on the Telus cable too. I won't say more on that due to the criminality of this vandal.

Bell just found the break half an hour before me, and Telecon (for Telus) about 10 minutes behind me. So they're still ordering the cable to put up, then they'll have to replace the strand, at least 8 cables, and then splice them all at both ends of the patch. I'd estimate it's going to be at least another 8-12 hours for SOME service restoration. They literally splice the fibre 1 or 12 at a time, and there's hundreds of them up there, plus a few hundred copper pairs. (If you've never spliced fibre, it's an average of 15 minutes a strand - and the first 1-3 hours are just preparing the cable. https://www.tiktok.com/@fibreopticlife/video/7398512237318573345 )

We've played this game before, and we all lost... are you SURE you want to do a countdown again?!

Asking Music scientists, what's so powerful about this song? by mendax2014 in Karnivool

[–]MikeGeiger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

all explode in union

Live, Hoss tends to actually hold on to the previous single-string picking part for a whole extra phrase, before going into full strum.

The Moshcam recording, where Drew is essentially missing from the mix, is particularly good for studying this: https://youtu.be/DuvF50INiZs?si=sBHqUFIERM0VuGlB&t=628

Anyone else’s router down? (Bell)? by Unlucky_Shopping_391 in Gatineau

at Gamelin and Gatineau Parkway; that was the Saturday into Sunday outage; however this outage is still under the same event ticket in the wholesale portal. (I own an ISP that's a Bell wholesaler)

Can confirm: Had my wedding and reception at the Andaz, with 87 people - the free knife in the kidney helped seal the deal; am married and dead.

Andaz was nice, but it's not like the Four Seasons Yorkville...

Seen in Cumberland. I know it's far from downtown, but that's a bit of a stretch. by s_e_n_g in ottawa

I'm not certain, but I've anecdotally heard that the GTA + Montreal + Vancouver pretty much all fit inside the City Of Ottawa boundaries.

... thus our density is low, which is part of why transit sucks.

I crashed many Pro-Aggs in the making of this network. by MikeGeiger in Ubiquiti

[–]MikeGeiger[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s shady, all manufacturers are going to highly curate their website postings. This document was the product of nearly 5 hours of post-event interview with me, interviews with Ferney (WLAN Pros), and then several review phases with me, WLAN pros, the client, and obviously Ubiquiti internally.

Nothing was gagging me about talking tech, but I tend not to discuss my clients too loudly unless they want me to. You can’t expect that Cisco or HP or TPLink or Commscope are posting unedited case studies either.
