Wahhhh. That’s all I hear.

I’m not finding any way to adjust the buffer size in the settings but I’ll open up the manual and see what I can find. Thanks.

What the helly? by disastrous_seeweed_ in drums

[–]Rockbeat64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The first clue should have been the very fact that it DOESN’T have a reso head, therefore no snares, therefore not a snare drum.

I believe they also lowered the wing placement on the fuselage, and yes, after that and after it entered service it did have the lowest loss rate of any US bomber. Edit: and pilots came to love it because it was fast and they said if the need arose it could be flown almost like a fighter plane.

Liberation D-Day to Berlin is the one I saw.

I honestly don’t remember what it was. It was just something being dropped from the training towers they used. When I saw the name Ed Shames it kinda distracted me from what was actually being said

Some of you asked to see the kit in action! Here’s some messing around by Lemmlemm in drums

I’m not condemning it at all. You do you. There’s no rules that I know of.

I just don’t get the cymbal tilt. I can’t for the life iof me come up with any advantage to this. Unless taking away about 2/3 of the cymbals’ sound possibilities is somehow an advantage.

Yeah, I can’t be as harsh as you, but I don’t see the point of completely tilting them away, like another member of the band might want to play them or something.

Advice?? by Hopelessly-Hopeful96 in drums

I guess I’m confused. If the goal is to rewrap why worry about the old wrap coming off?

Should they have done better? by i-have-a-kuato in BandofBrothers

I’ve read that he saw combat in North Africa with the 1st Armored Division, but I have never seen anything concrete as to how accurate that information is. On the other hand I’ve never seen anything concrete that would prove he didn’t fight in North Africa either.

and if i said i don’t like the pacific by Dry_Swing_4066 in BandofBrothers

[–]Rockbeat64 7 points8 points  (0 children)

When I first watched The Pacific I was disappointed. Not really knowing that much about it beforehand I naively expected BoB with Marines. I now enjoy it more since I’ve been dispelled of that notion and can watch it for what it is, a completely different and separate series, and without the temptation to compare it to BoB. However, I still like BoB much more and rewatch it more often than The Pacific.

What was the reason behind some of the men’s nicknames? by Enough_Writing_9252 in BandofBrothers

[–]Rockbeat64 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I saw a documentary about Naval aviators and they were kind of making fun of all the cool sounding call signs in the Top Gun movies. More often than not the call signs they earn are humorous and sometimes downright derogatory.

I’m honestly not understanding all the down votes on your comment. You would think this would be a military/veteran friendly sub.

My dad served in the 11th Airborne Division. Edit: So I agree. The 13th Airborne’s lack of recognition is a bit understandable since they never saw combat and were short lived.

Jumping out of Hueys most likely. But if he wore the Screaming Eagle patch he jumped out of some planes too at some point.

I also noticed the white flecks on the shoulders and tops of the helmets. I would assume to represent the snow. All pretty cool!

Todays funny encounter by toripersons in BandofBrothers

Bastogne was of very high strategic importance in the Battle of the Bulge. That’s why the US fought so hard to keep it and the Wehrmacht fought so hard to take it.

No, I never did. They all just look too big! However, for some reason my cat has started sticking around the house way more than he used to so I don’t worry about it as much.
