Cashier: "Yesterday was rough, like you had to run to the car"
Me: "I know, I was working in it all day"
Cashier: "Well, you're probably used to it after all these years"

Have you looked at the Helix?

I've seen it. That thing's insane. Line 6 has the digital market down pat. I own a Flextone 2 but I'm looking to get rid of it. Next to a tube amp, it just doesn't compare. Probably wouldn't get much for it, I don't have the floor controller, which practically neuters the amp. Nobody wants to fiddle with switches and knobs all day. That controller makes everything that much easier.

After I got rid of my Boogie rig I got a Flextone 2 as well. Just a single 12 combo. But with the Axe FX I dont even need a speaker cabinet and its sounds are super convincing. So I have been looking at some used ones, think I may pull the trigger on one here soon. Convenience man.

I know what you're saying. I've heard that Vai doesn't even bother with amps anymore since he got his Axe FX2. I just can't get past the lack of warmth that tube amps provide. I need tubes.

I've got a 2x12 Crate Vintage Club 50 and I've been considering unplugging the control panel from the speaker unit and getting something else, like a mini head, to plug into it.

Fractal has the Axe-FX 3 out, so FX 2s should be hitting the used market as people may want to upgrade.

Do you have a DAW on your computer?

Yeah, I know. Everybody and their mothers all have one. The thing's spreading like a virus.

The Democrats are coming for our guns. All in the past month or so.

Both passed the House, now in the Senate
H.R. 8
H.R. 1112

Both of these have been talked about already. Contact your Senators to squash them if you can.

Introduced in the House
H.R. 1263
(National Firearms Amendments Act of 2019 - To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to subject to the requirements of the National Firearms Act any semiautomatic rifle that has the capacity to accept a detachable magazine.)

H.R. 822
(Firearm Risk Protection Act of 2019 - To prohibit the sale of a firearm to, and the purchase of a firearm by, a person who is not covered by appropriate liability insurance coverage.)


H.R. 1222
(Target Practice and Marksmanship Training Support Act - To amend the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act to facilitate the establishment of additional or expanded public target ranges in certain States.)

Not quite sure what the last one (1222) is about, I just caught wind of it. Doesn't sound too bad, but the devil's in the details so...

If I find more, I'll post them.

They're serious now. Get ready people. It's coming.

Boss screamin' in my ear about who I'm supposed to be
Getcha a 3-piece wall street smile and son you'll look just like me
I said "hi man, there's something that you oughta know I'll tell ya Park Avenue leads to
Skid Row

I'd bet the majority believe they are only trying to ban "assault" rifles. That's definitely the way it's framed in the media.

They have become much more brazen it and its absolutely terrifying to think you have Dems that have clearly said out loud they want to ban all public ownership of guns and its the same party that is now socialist. Coincidence? I think not comrade.

Damn right it's terrifying. Even the liability insurance bill could be used as a registry to know who has what and help with confiscations.

Just a few years ago they were saying "don't be paranoid, no one's coming for your guns".

Fat Tuesday is done, it is now officially Lent.

[RBP]

Fat Tuesday is done, it is now officially Lent.

What did you give up?

[DemonGeminiX]

Nothing yet, although I do have to say that Lent isn't really about giving up stuff or denying yourself, but sacrificing of yourself to best present yourself to God.

But yeah, I might be a smartass about it this year, like I have been just about every year prior... giving up something that I have no chance in hell of ever having, like shellfish (I'm allergic) or Ethiopian cuisine (ha... running joke from a long time ago... it may or may not still be true today. I have no idea). I may give up cussing out Hindus (as far as I know, there are no Hindus anywhere near me). Or maybe I'll just give up chocolate for real. Whatever.
