One time, some friends and I got enough people together to play a two board version of risk 2210. We had ten people and we were going to use the moon to transport troops between boards. We got it set up and then everybody left. I don't think I've ever been madder than I was at that moment.


dude, we found this board game that was like risk, but like 10 times more complicated, 20 times more pieces and literally took like an hour to set up and get everything done because there were ships, planes and ground troops, and very specific set ups for each area. awesome game. its based on world war 2 or something, and the game costs like 100 bucks

I have a setup that I'm in love with. Bass+Big Muff into a stack, vocals into a DD and my Alamo amp, drummer playing with it.

It's lo-fi glory. Holy crap, it's perfect.

i likewise am just so chuffed with my board right now that i can hardly stand it. rearranging the board gave me all kinds of new stuff to do without messing up my previous repertoire of tricks, and getting the Phantom Ring back on the board in particular gave me back some timbres i've really missed. now i can pretty much step on any three boxes at random and produce an effect that'll make me clap my hands in glee like a two-year-old. and with the separate board with the Head Rush and Flashback A/Bed for looping i can build up layers of noise that sound like Labradford stuck in a washing machine :!!!:

my favorite thing at the moment: Down channel of Phantom Ring -> Octave Multiplexer set to all low octave -> two or three fuzzes -> RV-3 set to repeat -> squarewave trem synched to delay time -> EF set to down sweep -> reverb -> slow shallow flange -> compressor -> loops.

it's so badass that one of my projects for the next few days is to start recording loops to GarageBand through the built-in mic in the laptop or the SM48 plugged into the iMic interface, so i can upload stuff to Soundcloud. especially when both loopers are going at different lengths simultaneously, it's gloriously diseased shit. and i need to work up tracking live stuff to GB so i can track live guitars and bass on my project stuff.

i'm getting paid to hang out in an expensive resort room and eat fancy room service. aka, babysitting for my cousins while they take a short vacation.

also a lot of musical stuff is starting to like, materialize for me. sucks because there's not a lot of time left in the semester.

Ah man cool smoking spots are the best. I miss the times when my friends and I cared enough to go out of our way to smoke somewhere like that. It's more fun that way.

back when i was coming up one of my favorite things to do was park over by Midway Airport and smoke. this was in the 70s when Midway was little-used, and we'd sit and look at the lights. nowadays if you did this they'd come and haul you away as a terrorist suspect. but it was lovely, just having that innocent luxury of not being noticed.

My favorite spot was the very top of this huge hill up the street from my house. It's like a picturesque panoramic view at night. But like all good spots, it ended up getting blown up.

Our best smoking spot was this out-of-the-way Jewish cemetery that no one ever went to. I don't think we ever actually saw anyone else there over several years.

Just got back from a sweet show.
letlive were pretty dec. Definitely prefer them live to their studio stuff.

Every Time I Die freaking destroyed me, as per usual. Opened with Underwater Bimbos and it was just freakin' nuts then on. I got in my first circle pit in almost ten years.
Jordan had his usual Marshall sitting on top of a sweet Emperor 6x12 cab.

The Devil Wears Prada were pretty good. Most guitar changes I've ever seen in a show.
Also, the guitarist who now plays Jazzmasters broke out a Mustang for a song. First time I've seen a Mustang in that style.

Thats odd, considering that everybody dies.
