Plus, the wall won't be so boring to look at

Hell yes to this. Good musical inspiration all around.

WOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Was getting tacky clothes for halloween costume at St. Vinnie's but saw a Ross Loudmouth 1240 for $50 with a sign that says, "Needs work" or something to that effect:
Looks like this...

EDIT: Yes, that is an effects loop on the front of the amp.
Probably just needs new tubes and a fuse (like my other combo). Didn't buy it, I'm far too broke at the moment, but having that would be so fucking perfect in stereo with my super clean 1x15 fender combo.

My present band Fuzzifer was asked to play a few gigs and I got - finally - to play with the band after a LOOOOOOOONG brake.

Ok. Let me know if it needs more work than just tubes.

Another moment of "I'm doing well in a class I didn't even try in and don't like." Either my political theory instructor got really sick of reading papers and mine was at the end, or everybody else in the class really sucks at writing.
I don't know how this happens, but I kind of like it after how shitty I have been feeling about college.

never underestimate how crap the average person's writing skills are. i really miss being in school, where literacy actually counted for something.

Sadly twas gone when I went in yesterday.
In other news I'm already dressed up for working on the Saturday when everybody celebrates Halloween (which will probably suck anyway) but I get to wear a super comfy baggy shirt, those windbreaker sweat pants (couldn't find any rip-offs), and probably my regular chuck taylors. Gonna be cozy as fuck. But nice and light to.
Oh yeah, i got my gold chain, and somehow managed to get my hair in a pompadour. We'll see how long that lasts.
Honestly, I kinda look more like a Cuban drug lord than Ricky from Trailer Park boys, lol.

I tried to make a pompadour once. My hair was stuck in "I just got out of bed" mode for two weeks. I had to buy this special powder crap from a salon to dissolve the pomade.
Murray's and curly hair does not mix well.
