Non-Music Shit / Jian Ghomeshi Sex Pervert

« on: October 27, 2014, 03:33:48 AM »

Not sure if anyone outside of Canada ( or in Canada ) gives a shit...

He hosted Q everyday on the CBC, pretty good arts and culture show, and he was a great interviewer. Again,not sure how well know he is outside of Canada, but he got noticed after his interview with Billy Bob Thorton a few years ago when Billy Bob treated him like shit.

Non-Music Shit / Twittarded

« on: January 03, 2013, 05:27:09 PM »

So my local message board /  digital haunt has gone tits up. Lack of use, folks using facebook, whatever...

Anyhow, I still consider myself slightly above THEE social network, however, for some reason haven't deemed twitter to be quite as cunty ( lack of "like button"s I assume ) as said social network.

So...who here was a twitter account ?  ( Oh Great Lord TermBo, forgive me if there may be a thread like this already )

Non-Music Shit / Turntable Preamp ?

« on: October 20, 2011, 03:54:34 PM »

So...

I'm putting a new turntable into an old floor model record player and it needs to have a preamp.  I live in buttfuck nowhere and no one around here carries them. 

What's a good / cheap unit I can buy online and where ?

Thanks,
~T

P.S.  Music Shit or Non-Music Shit  ?

Demo Tape / Strawmen - New Track and Bandcamp

« on: October 18, 2011, 09:04:38 AM »

Finally made a bandcamp for the Strawmen. Myspace is just too painful to update nowadays.

Please note the Brick a Brack section, will serve as a home for otherwise homeless songs, demo's and shit that would have appeared on a myspace player.

New track is called Priest Lake as heard here, http://strawmen.bandcamp.com/track/priest-lake-vapour-sessions

Thanks for listening,
