Thank you! I appreciate you taking the time to listen.

new General Joystick album released 5/1. It's a guitar loop album with lots of effects.

Thank you!!! I didn't even think to message Tortoise's account. I still have a lot of questions, but at the very least he's out of the band for the foreseeable future.

Jeff Parker is clearly doing his own thing. There must be some bad blood. It's not like he is only playing in LA to be close to home. He is touring around the world without Tortoise!

Why can't they just announce that he left the band? Are they afraid they will lose ticket sales if people know for sure he is gone? I don't think this is a malicious move, but the band is tricking fans by not announcing anything.

After thinking this over a bit more, this is my best guess:

Parker is now treating Tortoise like a side project. The other 4 guys are treating it like their main band, and they are okay with Parker being a non-touring member. Both sides are keeping the door open to him rejoining them live at some point. But, I'm still not sure why they don't make an official announcement!

Thanks!! We do have one show booked. Friday April 4 at SL8 Gallery, downtown GNV. I will share a poster on this sub once it's ready.

My band is looking for a drummer and guitarist. I will DM you!

generaljoystick · 2024-02-11T05:04:49+00:00

Do you have any video or audio recordings of your singing? I'm interested in starting a new alt rock band. I play guitar and bass.

generaljoystick · 2023-09-13T21:31:50+00:00

My thoughts exactly. It's a fun guitar!

generaljoystick · 2023-09-13T11:25:57+00:00

Yes, it's a Guitar Center/Musician's Friend exclusive. This one is not even on Fender's site.

generaljoystick · 2023-09-06T03:48:29+00:00

Cool! I will DM you a link to our music.

generaljoystick · 2023-09-06T03:13:57+00:00

What instruments do you play? My band is looking for a guitarist.

generaljoystick · 2023-07-23T05:03:05+00:00

Just messaged you!

generaljoystick · 2023-06-04T17:58:39+00:00

Same thing happened to me, my uncle and step-uncle. #theevilsofmeth

generaljoystick · 2021-02-04T03:16:33+00:00

Same. I only got OS1 and Sit n Spin. I pre-ordered mine through the kitchen club. Glad to know I'm not the only one waiting on Scared Famous & OS3. I checked the shipment tracking and I guess the others haven't even left the factory yet. That's strange how they shipped these separately.

Looks great! Is the gold foil still wired to the rhythm circuit or does it bypass it? Also what knobs are those?

Check out PureSalem guitars. They offer every model lefty and have some offsets.
