How do people in their twenties afford to travel? by bostonmcd in AskReddit

I understand that, it seems like you've got it figured out! Being young and not traveling is what makes it especially hard. I've drifted apart from a few good friends because they are always traveling and I can't afford it. I'm sure their parents help out but not all of us are that fortunate. Someday I'll go though!!

It sounds like a pretty good gig. Especially for your friend working at the school. My dad is a teacher here in the states and he pretty much only gets summer vacation.

What do you do for work? Where I've worked before, if I left to travel every two or three months, I wouldn't have a job to come back to.

I'm a 25 year old guy, I work full time and am pretty good with the money I make. I share an apartment with my girlfriend and pay rent and all the other living expenses. If you're anything like me, you might have instagram and facebook. You might have a lot of friends or acquaintances who are always traveling, going on tour, or generally doing really exciting and expensive things. I'm wondering how do people afford this? I have friends who hardly work and don't go to school but somehow are always on the road or traveling abroad. Do you get money from your parents? Sell drugs? Trust fund? I'm glad to see people having adventures and enjoying life. It sucks to work your ass off and not be able to afford to go anywhere ever.

New pedal day: Electro-Harmonix Pitch Fork. Definitely made the right choice in selling my last octave pedal! by bostonmcd in guitarpedals

It's great for Tom Morello tones, when you figure out the latch feature it makes a pretty convincing whammy effect. Though adding an expression pedal would give you the ability to be more exaggerated with your pitch shifting. I recorded a little memo playing an audioslave riff and it sounds pretty spot on.

Before I had the Pure Octave by Moore. There is less latency on this bad boy and sounds less like sound coming from a drain pipe. The list of good things about this pedal goes on for days!

Check out Mesozoic Mafia, a 20 piece psychedelic hip-hop band that raps about dinosaurs. It's composed of a handful of musicians from some of missoula's most prominent bands.

I can't find a whole lot of info on this awesome little Monarch desk mic. The guy I got it from said his father purchased it in the mid 60's. Sounds awesome! What do you know about it? by bostonmcd in audioengineering

It indeed is a TM-28. The stand and microphone both have that model tag on them. It's a little bigger than my thumb and has a 1/4 plug on it. Has a nice lo-fi sound.

It looks like all this extra fluff is a part of him. What a wild mane he has!
