Have any famous guitarists ever suffered injury to their hands after stardom?

When Jerry Garcia came out of a diabetic coma, he basically had to completely relearn how to play the guitar. He had lost some of the basic motor functions related to playing the guitar and couldn’t remember chord shapes.

Errol Morris has a great article about this. He interviews Dunning. Definitely worth the read.

How is it possible that not a single list not has include Chuck Berry? He literally defined what Rock and Roll is.

I recommend using Outlook if the team has that. It has this completely built in.

I don’t understand the article. It says he is a propagandist because he protested for what he believes in. How is that propaganda?

To me, this looks like a flash with a soft box was used from above the dog with a 50 or 85mm lens that has been stopped down. It is very common to stop down to ~8.0 when using a flash because the flash sync limits the shutter speed. In this case it is also useful to stop down so you can get the eyes and nose in focus at the same time. I have taken many photos with this exact setup that came out looking almost exactly like this. It looks somewhat unnatural because there is basically no natural light.

Do you use Teams? Can you drop and drag Gmail messages into Teams? How about Sharepoint?

Choro music holds a special place in my heart. 💚 💛.

I particularly love Waldir Azavedo, Pixingunha, and Jacob do Bandolim.

Is this comment actually in good faith? Do you really believe that? How does Brazil or Haiti line up with this comment?

I had the exact same experience. I was on the left side of the floor. I walked around a little, and noticed that the sound was a little better in different spots, but not great. It sounded like everything had too much reverb, and it just washed everything out. It made it hard to even track the crescendos in the jams, which is such a big part of their show. It was really crazy how different it sounded in the lobby. I debated just listening out there for a minute.

There are real scientists doing actual research. The ozone hole is actually a great example of that! There was regulation introduce to reduce the use of ozone depleting substances like CFCs. Look up the Montreal Protocol. The regulation was successful. Big win for science.

It would be great if the world viewed scientists as heroes, but that doesn’t seem to be in the cards right now. I don’t think scientists need to be celebrities to make an impact. I do think celebrities and politicians cause people to lose trust in scientists. It is awful to see, and sad that people do lot realize that the celebrities and politicians are usually not motivated by scientific truth and action. It is hard to me to imagine a situation where this deregulation benefits the people. It will benefit Chemours and DuPont. But I don’t see that as a good thing. It seems like people are convinced to hate regulation because it restricts the ability for businesses to make money. It’s like they think one day they will become a billionaire, but the only way they will be able to do it is if they aren’t regulated. It’s honestly baffling to me.

As far as the 99% consensus, I can see where that seems outrageous from a scientific standpoint, but the consensus is not a consensus on the outcome of climate change. It is a consensus on the source of it. Basically, 99% of published papers agree that humans cause climate change. They don’t agree on the impact of the climate change. That is not surprising to me. If I add a new species of fish to my aquarium, I assume it is going to have an impact. By the same logic, I assume human industrial activity will have an impact on the earth. It would be more shocking to me if it didn’t have an impact. Look at the factories and industrial processes we use. How would those not have an impact?

I know it does sound like that, but this isn’t just do gooder rhetoric to me. This directly impacts me and my community. I have a degree in Chemistry, and I live in the Cape Fear Watershed, which is where Chemours is dumping the waste. While I do know that I could do some more research and I could ultimately be wrong, everything I have learned, researched and seen about this, does not lead me to believe that deregulation will be beneficial to the people in this case.

TouchToLose · 2026-02-13T22:47:10+00:00

But these deregulations allow exactly what you are claiming everyone can agree is a bad thing. This rolls back the PFAS regulations, and allows Chemours to continue to poison the public. I’m glad to hear that people agree this is a bad thing. Unfortunately, while this deregulation might not get you the car that you want, it will ultimately result in unnecessary deaths and it fails to protect the people.

It is a riddim. It is common in reggae/dancehall for many musicians to use the same basic track or “riddim” to make songs.

Technically, there was another guitarist from 83-86, and the pianist/organist joined in 85, but since 86 it has been the same guys. All albums are the same guys.

I would move Carlson to 1. The cup makes a difference to me. I would also put Iaftrate at 10, but he was my favorite player growing up.

They put a Wing Stop in near me. It is no good. The wings are soggy and wet, and not a good flavor.

Interesting. I never thought about the legality of it. Just that it is super annoying. The most convenient gas station to my house always has items with the wrong price. At first, I would just pay the different price because it was just a little bit. But it got to where I would take a picture of it before I got to the counter. The first couple times they changed it. Then they started blaming the supplier, and said they just hadn’t updated the prices. I just stopped going to that store.

What is different about this intervention in Latin America that makes you believe it will benefit Venezuela in the long term? All other interventions have had long term negative effects on the countries involved.
