Quite Vexing

Jesus that last VQ is making me irrationally angry

Exactly this, but when I finally wrestled it from him, I realised he was eating fox shit

As far as I remember (25 years ago), this doesn’t work. Kids just don’t appreciate witty comebacks

It’s always a treat when the support band is better than the one you came for

One of my fave instruments-as-speech tracks blends vocals and guitar Fun Lovin Criminals - My Sin

32 if you point your thumb knuckle/tip at each finger joint/tip

Contramaxxing?

Can confirm. I used to answer the calls to waste their time, ask them to hold while I go take a shit etc. I started to get more calls after doing this, until about a week in when the scammer told me to fuck off and stop wasting his time! After that, not so many calls.

I think there’ll be massive differences in volume depending on culture, location & genre.

Ranked loudest to quietest, from my most memorable gigs: Metal/emo, punk, rock, ska, soca, hip-hop, reggae, jazz, folk. Never been to a jazz venue and thought it was too loud!

The counter argument is that you get to decide where you stand, close and damagingly loud, or safe and far away, or anywhere in between. Except for the last one I went to, in a tiny basement (max 15 people) blasting metal inches away from my face

Maybe some legal framework that would force any derivative work made from the content to be free & open source?
