  1. I've seen Mould a bunch -- Husker Du at Liberty Lunch, Black Sheets of Rain tour same place, Sugar same (same show you went to), and his trio at Mohawk. He's a giant of American punk and alt rock. Such a unique identifiable sound. There's a great scene in one of the Foo docs where Grohl gets Mould into his garage to cut backing tracks on some song, Mould takes a crack at it, leans out of the vocal booth and basically says "what should I change"? Grohl's response was basically "not a damn thing, dude!". He's alsow nearly deaf. A buddy engineered a Magnapop album that Bob produced. The monitor level in the control room drove him nuts, just insanely loud.
  2. I like Everclear quite a bit. And yes, "Santa Monica" is an earworm. I wouldn't lower them to the status of a Sugar Ray or Smashmouth, that's for sure. Maybe about even with The Killers. Correct.
  3. Crikey. I'm not a particularly nostalgic guy, but check out this prime era Austin blues lineup on the Al Green classic:
  4. I remember all the Nebraska fans at DKR the year after Ricky pushed the Cornhusker's shit in just shaking their heads at another beatdown. They knew their place. Aggies, never.
  5. HITW was the club I most wanted to play. First time in the window on Guadalupe was transformative. I figured I had made it. I think there were maybe 50 people there, 40 of whom gave no fucks. Perfect. RIP, Doug.
  6. I haven't filled out FAFSA past freshman year for either of my kids at UT. Nobody seems to care. We aren't getting any grants anyway.
  7. I saw Counting Crows at Austin Opera House on their tour supporting that debut album. T-Bone Burnet came out before they played and recited the lyrics to "Round Here" as a poem. It worked, and then the band came on and opened the show with that song. I saw them several times over the years and they just got worse and worse. Sing the fucking melodies, Adam.

    Never close to my favorite singer, but that's a good band, overweight or not. They were right.
  9. Yup, two frets (whole step) too low. I love it.
  10. Can Walz call in Minnesota National Guard? Trump and his henchmen are not going to back down, they're thrilled with this shit.
  11. Oh definitely, but she missed the top note on the intro the first two times. They've admitted it. It makes the song better in my mind.
  12. Lowell G is obsessed with Vandy's unbeaten status. Watch any college basketball over the last 40 years, Lowell?
  13. Bass fuckup in the intro and all. Love the Deal sisters. EDIT: oh yeah, "Cannonball"
  14. I'm wondering if my sound is ahead of my video.
  15. That's an and-1?
  16. As a beaten housewife Texas fan I am prepared for what's about to happen, but what the hell, I'm in.
  17. jimmyjazz replied to Lurch's topic in Music
    Reaper has a way to select a small section and drag one end forward or back, automatically creating the blend/fade to the other audio. I haven't tried it on grouped tracks, though.
  18. jimmyjazz replied to Lurch's topic in Music
    So you group all the tracks and slip them all +/- in (say) a measure to bring the rogue misstep in line?
  19. jimmyjazz replied to Lurch's topic in Music
    Drums were tracked to scratch tracks. This is unlikely to be a gold record LOL.
  20. The idea that 2019 LSU wouldn't score 20 against their defense but we scored 27 is a nice touch.

    Any recs on a DAW-agnostic tutorial (book, video series, whatever) about correcting drum kit timing errors? My dad band went into a small local studio to have my daughter track 4 songs in about 5 hours on the house drum kit, and the sounds are pretty good, but given the time constraints every tune has a hiccup or two timing-wise. (I'm OK with fixing random things like that, it doesn't violate my moral code like the "Lars actually never played one of these whole measures" shit Metallica pulls.) I don't like mixing very much and I've never auto-tuned and have only slipped a kick drum here or there a few times, but I don't think I'm doing it the best way.
  22. jimmyjazz replied to Lurch's topic in Music
    Yeah, I got hired for a bunch of those sessions. "We'll try to track 8 songs by 1 PM and then you can mix them for the other half day." lulz. As I recall, at least one got a little local notoriety.
  23. Sounds like a great gift to me. I'd really like to hear the difference between the new drummer and Peart.
