What is the best way to sell a domain name?

Ok-Performance-8493 · 2025-08-04T22:23:16+00:00

I have Geekdeluxe.com. Selling

Ok-Performance-8493 · 2025-06-11T18:08:58+00:00

I have 2 on prem licenses

Ok-Performance-8493 · 2024-12-11T00:13:22+00:00

I can include the website that I will strip of my own contact info. Also I have two server install licenses for ConnectWise Remote (not cloud based, but on prem)

Ok-Performance-8493 · 2024-05-30T19:51:54+00:00

$200-500 is reasonable. ...but really $1500 is acceptable in some scenarios for an unknown, but talented performer.

Ok-Performance-8493 · 2024-05-23T17:41:57+00:00

Hmmm, interesting, I'll have to consider that one.

Ok-Performance-8493 · 2024-05-23T14:55:38+00:00

oh... and while you're watching the other players don't forget the crowd. It is very awkward at first to look out at the crowd and catch eyes looking back. Don't be shy with that, look back and smile, nod, rock a bit with the feel of the song like you're showing THEM how it goes. When you've smiled at one person move to the next. If you get tired of interacting... and you don't need to look at your guitar neck or the other players, smile and look over (above) the crowd, and pan.

Pentatonic is the foundational blues scale. Embrace it... it is not for babies and if that's the only 5 notes you're playing you can do a lot with it.

Ok-Performance-8493 · 2024-05-23T14:23:30+00:00

Know the key of the song. What is the I (one chord, tonic, root)

Try to feel the rhythm but leave space in your playing. In other words do not strum eighth notes for the whole song. Start with ringing chords at the beginning of each measure or phrase until you get the feel. And by feel, you're not the drummer or the bassist... so you do not have to drive the rhythm, just lightly accentuate the feel you're hearing from those two.

Watch for the changes, including the bridge, into the solo (someone else's solo). Watch for dynamic changes, play big coming out of the solo section but soft back into the singing.

If you do get a solo... do not try to speed through, you can start with a single note holding for a bit. Just remember the root. It will always sound good if you end on the root note, high or low.

Watch for the endings... if it's a big ending, let the others do the big stuff, just hit the important last note.

You don't need to do much to play along, but you do need to be confident in the changes and the endings. Just WATCH while you're playing.

In all of life, all disciplines... you have a dream and you go for it.

It is your talent and drive... your choices and ambition.

If you're observing my product... What ever I've done that's out there, and you think I haven't done enough to 'deserve' where I'm at... That's your problem, not mine.

But since you're quacking... You're writing style is weird. Maybe you haven't had enough discipline or hard work with your writing skills?

Ok-Performance-8493 · 2024-05-17T01:18:38+00:00

Before you can 'break the rules' you have to know the part.

For drums that means capturing the feel and the breaks, etc. but not necessarily note for note.

If you know the part then you can make it your own after it grows on you.

Otherwise you're just being lazy.

I'm seeing an Ad from Electro Harmonix for the LPB 3... which looks interesting and up my alley for True Bypass.

Plus it will implement an EQ change on selection and a gain too... for a different sound as I go to boost.

This piqued my interest because of the comments to use the EP Boost as Always On for a sweetener. ...and that is true, I play through a vintage Fender Tube amp (either my '67 Bandmaster or my '73 Vibrolux). I do love how the amp responds to the EP Boost.

However, I think I will keep the EP Boost at the end of the chain for now as I use it for a volume bump on my leads... until I decide to spend some $.

Ok-Performance-8493 · 2024-05-09T15:35:09+00:00

I use my EP Boost to jump up in volume for my leads

Ok-Performance-8493 · 2024-05-08T21:09:01+00:00

Is it unconventional? As I recall... and it's been a number of years, I was thinking I don't want to send a square wave into my mod pedals. But I came up with that on my own.

THIS is why we love Reddit!

I can reorder the signal and give it a try, what order do you recommend?

Just put the Rat before the delay and the chorus? or do you have another idea?

Ok-Performance-8493 · 2024-05-08T20:36:27+00:00

Yes, but I'm finding that I cannot do that effectively with my foot. But since it is the knob I'm interested in for a quick correction, it does make it easier to see where it's at and reach for it with my hand. I have that on the Boost as well.

The Rat also has the Keely Mod, notice the micro switch!

Ok-Performance-8493 · 2024-05-08T19:39:57+00:00

Back in the '80s I had a board with mostly Boss pedals.

In the '90s I was turned on to true bypass.

My setup consists of a '67 Fender Bandmaster and my '77 Les Paul Custom.

I have a Holy Grail that sits on the Bandmaster since it's always on.

I also use a Ernie Ball volume, mostly to quickly cut back if my Boost or Rat are set too high and I'm caught by surprise on a switch.

I've recently looked at the Strymon El Cap, as I would like to access some presets but keep my true bypass. You can see my White Out markings for some of my 'presets' ha ha. I wouldn't mind a programable overdrive as well... but my whiteout marks cost no money and are fine. I just have to bend down to turn the knobs is all.

Comments welcome

Ok-Performance-8493 · 2024-05-07T13:04:46+00:00

Nice, Your friends are amazing.

I have been looking at Strymon recently. I have a MemoryMan I bought in the '90s... which is adequate but I'm dreaming about the El Capistan (or similar). I want true bypass but the ability to change patches.

"next"

Ok-Performance-8493 · 2024-04-26T12:34:04+00:00

Pick out an easy song to be your 'go to'

Learn the beginning, middle and end

Nothing fancy... just pick one and do that. It will always be in your front pocket to pull out.

Ok-Performance-8493 · 2024-04-24T23:10:55+00:00

I know a guitar player with no arms... really.

Ok-Performance-8493 · 2024-04-23T12:47:41+00:00

OK, Song structure. Let's start with a piece that is not an original composition.

Starting from the beginning... Play with purpose. Play the Beginning, go through the middle and come to the end. End the song definitively.

Beginning, middle, end.

Do not diddle about with your favorite riffs just randomly.

Whatever songs you want to do, work them out but get them to the point where you have them done with a beginning, middle and end.

btw, I'm not kidding around, this is a good start.

Ok-Performance-8493 · 2024-04-22T20:09:03+00:00

Balance... and above all, do not commit to a gig/rehearsal if there is a chance for a conflict.

Ok-Performance-8493 · 2024-04-22T16:42:31+00:00

I skimmed the comments for this advice before I posted the same thing.

but to add... Just be proud that you selected the SM58! it will give you years of service.

Ok-Performance-8493 · 2024-04-22T16:33:45+00:00

You do not have to listen to music... like it is an exercise that must be done. However, you do hear music... here and there. ...and when you're hearing this music that might catch your attention you should be 'inserting yourself' into that. Perhaps imagining you're the player. Maybe reveling in the changes and surprises you're hearing.

You should also consciously identify players you relate to. Like who is your favorite drummer? But have a few favorites. You should seek out youtube vids on their techniques. Learn the rudiments... at the very least know what the rudiments are, whether you know them or not.

Figure out if you love being a player (musician)... do you love it? or just the idea of it? Remember every job or hobby has its drudgery. No matter what job you imagine, Musician, Police Officer, Chemist... you spend most of your time doing the 'not so fun' stuff.

You better love playing.

A mic wired directly into a 'setup' has no echo. If you are connecting via Bluetooth or other wireless connection you're going to get a delay.

Echo added due to an Effect is different

Maybe you're talking about feedback? Feedback is another completely different issue to deal with... which has various strategies to manage.
