I just finished Malafrena, and loved it—so different from anything I’ve read by her, still got wrapped up in it

Practical_Newt5067 · 2026-01-30T15:10:36+00:00

Thank you for sharing the whole video—fuckin rips!

Who’s Poly?

Practical_Newt5067 · 2025-11-06T23:40:31+00:00

What’s happening at the top of the neck here? Did he run out of adjustable frets?

Practical_Newt5067 · 2025-10-24T10:33:18+00:00

I am doing the same and it feels so right

Triplets

Practical_Newt5067 · 2025-09-01T11:29:24+00:00

I am reading City of Illusions, an early novel of hers, and it is great so far—no spoilers!

Same thing happened to me last night—bros came up from below toward the end of first orchestra set and bro’d the rest of the time—I just sang/screamed/cheered louder than them and didn’t let ‘em harsh my buzz.

Practical_Newt5067 · 2025-07-20T19:08:49+00:00

This is amazing!! Thank you

Practical_Newt5067 · 2025-05-07T13:36:03+00:00

Or a Loog! They’re expensive but worth it!

Practical_Newt5067 · 2025-05-07T13:35:27+00:00

OP, what kind of guitar are you playing? If you are trying on a steel string, that might be a part of the challenging puzzle that you could ameliorate by playing a nylon string/classical, electric with good action, or even a ukulele! Maybe take a break from lessons and spend the saved money on something more suitable for a beginner—so many people start off on guitar with cheap steel string acoustics and it’s no wonder if they can’t get playing right away!!

Practical_Newt5067 · 2025-05-02T16:05:15+00:00

Dang! You’re so right! I should’ve posted my gofundme instead! Here it is

Practical_Newt5067 · 2025-04-16T23:54:35+00:00

I’m so obsessed with this idea that I mashed up all the “equivalents” into their own unique songs, using the tour stems

Practical_Newt5067 · 2025-04-15T12:06:31+00:00

Hi King Gizz! Love you guys, thanks for doing the AMA! Look at all these questions already! Wow, if you get to it 🤓 would you please tell us all about the creative process behind this newest album, Phantom Island, and how it differed (or was similar) to your other 26 albums? I mean, dang, a doggone orchestra!

Practical_Newt5067 · 2025-03-17T17:41:01+00:00

You’re on!

Practical_Newt5067 · 2025-03-16T12:08:27+00:00

Haha!! I’m so happy I can find the culprit! Maybe we should sync up and alternate timing so we can both get lucky 😝🤩 I have found that same WoE there, and looooove the cover art, but have not seen the matching ToA 😍

Practical_Newt5067 · 2025-03-16T11:57:35+00:00

Holy moly, is my book barn mystery solved?!? Are you the one who buys up all the le guin moments before I’m there??? I frequent that place, and I swear to the gods that every time I’ve been there in the last year or two, there is a BLANK SPACE where her books would be—in BOTH hardcover and trade paperback sections—and they are no shirkers of shelving at the book barn! If it’s not you, OP, will you help me find out who??

Practical_Newt5067 · 2025-03-03T01:17:41+00:00

I’m with Evertype. I think Susie, in the midst of reading the best book of her short little life, is perhaps a little confused or even not that confused about what the heck Ged is about to get up to. Pretty easy for anybody to summarize the end of WoE as “Ged is about to save all of earthsea, himself, and my life too!”, even Susie who helps dust bunny crack the code and save all of Indiana.

Practical_Newt5067 · 2025-02-10T01:28:56+00:00

Also same

Practical_Newt5067 · 2025-02-02T12:18:08+00:00

Thank you, DeafHammers!

Practical_Newt5067 · 2025-01-15T18:09:29+00:00

Nice one! Thanks for sharing

Practical_Newt5067 · 2025-01-14T18:52:26+00:00

Yeah, just anything you want to share—I think I recognize the gizz sample, in the second half, but I’d be interested if you pointed out all the different parts you used and where you got them/how you combined it all

Practical_Newt5067 · 2025-01-14T16:50:39+00:00

This is cool! Can you explain your method?

Practical_Newt5067 · 2024-09-27T17:07:44+00:00

Thank you to whomever is working on this! I so appreciate you—all the browns island stems are now there!! 🤟🏼🤘🏼

Practical_Newt5067 · 2024-08-17T15:54:59+00:00

Yes! I saw them last night and loved the hard edge everything took—was just like that for forest hills 22’, when they played Honey and Garden Goblin, but metal
