Honestly it shouldn’t matter anyway…as long as they’re not nagging you wtf do you care if they have a hobby anyway? Just don’t be crazy, open your legs and cook every once in a while. That’s all I ask for. That said every broad I ever been with has her own shit going on anyway… so I don’t complain
You guitar & bass people should hear some of the different saxophone discussions.
Basically, the pinnacle is probably the Selmer Mark VI and Super Action 80 models. The the old Mark VI model (1954 - 1975) is fucking expensive as hell. You’re lucky to find one that needs repair (all saxes require at least adjustments when you first buy them) for $2.5k, but I’ve seen them in mint and reworked condition for as much as $15k. Super Action 80’s are my preference, since that’s what I played in school, and they’re much cheaper. More like 3k for a moderately used one in great condition.
Then there’s all the other vintage horns out there like the different Conn Naked Lady models which get that warm vintage sound. Parker played a Conn 6M at times and Coltrane a Mark VI. Every pro player is expected to at least have a Mark VI and/or S.A. 80 of any type of sax he plays (alto, tenor, etc) because they each sound drastically different. There some particular sound you’re trying to get? Go buy a different horn, cause you ain’t going to reproduce it with anything else. You might get close with a different mouthpiece, but each horn creates it’s own distinctive sound. I have a decent student model, but it’s adequate for me since I don’t play professionally. I want to get it reworked and modified with Super Action pads and springs to make it sound more in line with that horn.
And this doesn’t get into what mouthpiece, reeds and sometimes neck to use, or whether it’s better to remove the lacquer from the body on certain models. It gets pretty crazy, but I just pick up a sax and play. :tup:
What? As keen as I am to the idea of trying out a Limbic Fizzler, or god forbid a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster, why in the Sam Hill (who the hell is he anyway?) would you do this? Doesn’t that bartender know what dry ice is?
Oh, and also it’s nice to know that the old couple unwittingly growing MJ in the front lawn won’t face charges. What? The law doesn’t apply to nice old ladies now? Hell, that’s a known ruse: “Oh, I am old and therefore innocent.” I bet .10 seconds after the cops left, the old bird was all “H’arold, I told ye ta trim tha magic hedges, ya lazy git!” Domestic violence with a cane ensued.
As silly as that is, I hate drug laws. This is just yet another case of how they’re based on perception of character and sheer conjecture of intent. That’s horrible. :tup:
LOL I hate when people say shit like that to me, so sorry. But yeah, women usually don’t have too much going on besides careers and family. Not all of them are like that though. Careful where you place your strokes, mayne. :tup:
Ordering a pizza… I really hate take out pizzas, but I don’t have my car and I’m hungry.
Hope the driver can get here before the timer runs out, doesn’t run into some skateboard courier and turn my neighborhood into a wreck. Actually, that would be cool. Especially if he showed up with his Katana. :tup:
Watching Mad Men and the only thing that goes through my mind is “how long is it going to take for her to realize that she can orgasm from riding that horse?”
The show is good. January Jones appeals to a side of me that I thought I had buried. Crazy white people. :tup:
