Another Happy List From Captain Crankypants

  1. Last night I intended to go jam with my pal Tripp at a shady stor­age build­ing in Wards Cor­ner and because of some con­fu­sion with pad locks and keys, we ended up at someone’s house in Vir­ginia Beach at the most ridicu­lous home stu­dio I have ever seen. It was as big or big­ger than some legit com­mer­cial stu­dios I have been in and every damn thing you’d expect to find in one. Crazy.One of my rea­son for want­ing to get together with Tripp was an excuse to crank the AG 500 up with both of my cab­i­nets and mess with it a lit­tle to get some dif­fer­ent sounds (which I haven’t had the oppor­tu­nity to do because I have only been using it at gigs and don’t have much of an oppor­tu­nity to exper­i­ment with it at full vol­ume). So instead of doing this in a rat­tling stor­age build­ing, I got to do it in a more harmonically-friendly envi­ron­ment. This fuck­ing amp is so awe­some for a 26lbs. fly­weight head. I got the dis­tor­tion chan­nel dialed in per­fect right now, but it really needs to be cranked to get the right amount of “good” feed­back. So freak­ing fun.
  2. May have another gig with Billy Thomp­son com­ing up. I love play­ing with Billy, so I am super stoked. Will keep every­one posted about that.
  3. Luke told me yes­ter­day that he and Sarah are pregnant!
  4. Going to Rich­mond this week­end to hang out with Kab Kids. I expect to be drunk–tweet­ing much of the hang­out ses­sion. Also expect to sneak away at some point and hit Plan 9 for some tunes.
  5. It’s retarded to love a gro­cery store this much, but I am so fuck­ing glad we have a Trader Joe’s in Hamp­ton Roads now. I could go there every day. I never get sick of it.
