murphy's law and a trip to the music store (lots of parentheticals)
today, we totally smokeed a pump, so we couldn't finish sampling. fucking lame. i'm so over this sampling event.
i took a trip to the music store to replenish my supply of strings (i think that i last changed them when kurt called me, but maybe it was sometime this summer). i'm horrible about keeping my strings not sounding like ass. since i've been playing conventional roundwounds since my tenure with the rc, i forget how corrosive my sweat is, and how fast they wear out. it might be time to switch back to the mighty elixers (which i've had on the green bass for 2.5 years, and they've been consistent since they were about 2 months old). the big problem with string shopping is that i can rarely find exactly what i'm after, so i get los cheapies.
anyhow, at the non-rockstick megahouse (i can't stand going to the megahouse if i can help it), there were two "items" (women are not items, however) that caught my eye:
and, maybe i require another amplifier. like i don't have enough power already:
my black cat is missing in action. this bothers me. i hope that he's alright. the mighty gray feline will not like having a little brother, though. the black one needs a name, though, and i can only think of racist names for him. i did have a kitten named "darth vader" that i couldn't keep when i was very little. i used to find kittens on a regular basis, when i was little.
mahoney told me that he enjoyed the "star wars sith movie" very much. that's awesome! he used to call me darth vader, because i was a "bad dude" when i was a teenager.
mom thought that the movie was stupid, "like the other star wars movies." mom is evil.

- a super-cute girl behind the counter (with some "shit in her face"--maybe i could deal with facial piercings someday?); and
- a beasty tube amp that'll fit nicely in my rack (doing research on this tonight).
and, maybe i require another amplifier. like i don't have enough power already:
- 2 x 600 watt moscode stereo tube power amps (two of 'em, bitches!! i think that the output transformer is fried on one, though).
- 1 x 800 watt peavey cs-800 (still really squirrley, needs work)-- stereo, though, which i won't ever use.
- 1 x 350 watt ampeg AP-3550 (my main work-whore, with cool lights!)--the mighty mono-bloc power amp. this one has a bizzarre "presence" control, which amounts to a "crunch-o-rama" control--i keep it at 12, unless i'm jonesin' for the crunchee.
