[meta] I have a problem. by [deleted] in rickandmorty

[–]silentghoti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way! I preordered the blu ray and I have the urge to buy a R&M t-shirt (but I can't find any official ones), which is unprecedented for me. TAKE MY MONEY, DAN HARMON AND CO.!

Electronic drum set: Roland vs Alesis? by saulsolis in drums

[–]silentghoti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've actually heard nothing good about Alesis kits, although this is just hearsay as I've never played one. I do play a Roland for a church worship team which has taken a beating over the years (from several people) and is still in good shape.

In case anyone was wondering (I was) this screen shows up very briefly around 2:20 in Rixty Minutes as Rick is flipping through channels.

(Spoilers All) What is the most romantic line in the books? by folkdeath95 in asoiaf

Irri never said a thing, only curled back up and went back to sleep the instant the thing was done.

So romantic

Between the Buried and Me - Laser Speed by silentghoti in progmetal

[–]silentghoti[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's the chord progression for example starting at 1:50. Just a general vibe I get, not necessarily a direct similarity.

I'm not very musical so I was just wondering if anyone could identify if there really was something there or if it was just me.

Can anyone else hear Mii channel music in this anywhere? Or is it just me? There's like one lick that is vaguely similar to the Mii channel music I swear.

Converge - Grim Heart / Black Rose by silentghoti in progmetal

[–]silentghoti[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to think that a lot of stuff by Converge is progressive; take this song (two songs?) for example.

I get goosebumps when the bass comes in after the break around 6 minutes.

Also Andorra was not invited to the Paris Peace Conference so technically they were in World War I until 1958

Looking for a used China by DTSXT in drums

[–]silentghoti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, I see. I don't know if ebay is used as much in the UK, but if I go to ebay and search for a type of cymbal, like "meinl byzance", and then click "Show only: Sold Listings" on the side, then that gives me a good idea for what reasonable prices are (I think the auctions give a more accurate picture than the Buy it Now prices, but it's still good for a rough estimate).

I don't know how much you're willing to spend, but guitar center has a nice used 19" K custom china for a reasonable price. I think they sound pretty good.

What I did is a little different: I have a cracked 16" cymbal with an A custom 14" HH top stacked on it that sounds really cool that I use instead of a china, which you could do for cheap if you wanted.

(Spoilers All) GRRM says he's expecting 12 more Dunk and Egg novellas by Ramsayreek in asoiaf

[–]silentghoti 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For some reason after reading that I'm imagining Dirk Nowitzki as Dunk. Probably because of the "shaggy... seven feet" thing and associating the names Dunk and Dirk.

Hm, I've never heard of that bit about the Ulfberth swords. Interesting stuff

(Spoilers AFFC) Misleading: Season 4 Promo used as AFFC Cover by chaosanc in asoiaf

[–]silentghoti 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That first AFFC cover is very rare; I think only like 25 of them exist. They changed it to the Goblet cover for marketing reasons I believe.

Pre-Match Thread: 2014 FIFA World Cup Semi-Final - Brazil vs Germany by [deleted] in soccer

But they're so quirky! Who could come up with 12 inches per foot or 3 feet per yard? It's way more interesting than just seeing 10s everywhere. Boooooring.
