I don't want to sell my soul to a digital demons so i will get tube amp little later.

Oh...I think I get it.
That's not gonna earn very many points towards your personal Nirvana.

Off topic background for those going "Huh?"

"All your base are belong to us"

Is a poor translation of a cut scene in an old video game. It became a bit of an internet joke, when somebody made a humorous flash animation of it.

Here it is

No, it can't be that. It's something else. Something about the base and the stick, but the guy is from Utah.

I'm thinking it's a bass beater and not a base stick you use, but I'm just laughing at the whole reference to Zero Wing.

Bass drumsticksssssss.
By the way! NO ONE wants to record for free. 8-) I posted an ad about free recording time. And.... One guy that can barely play guitar responded no one else... If i will not find enough bands to keep me busy with free recording I will just try to advertise 80/hr maybe that will keep people interested 8-)

Good luck.

$80/hour is nearly unobtainable. If you had a great room, great gear, great console and a few gold records on the wall...maybe.

I charge $50 an hour and have most of those things and people still laugh at me when I tell them my rates (and then tell me that "Bubba down the road said he'd record me for 4 hours for $25 and he's got ProTools (LE of course)...")

I am just kidding 8) Cause I thought that bands will just jump on me with free recording...

Ha...

For bands that I KNOW I'm not interested in recording, when they call me, I quote my mobile rate ($75/hour).

That usually sends them packing. And if it doesn't, at least I'm getting a little more out of the deal to put up with it.

What do you think I should get for OH with where I am now I mean noname no real clients bit of experience... Should I go for akg c1000s or it is an overkill?

C1000's are an underwhelming "underkill." Not overkill.

Check into ATs 20 or 30 series.

really??? well at2021 are only 110 for a pair! sweet!
Love you guys 8-) Do you think at 2020 will be better than my mxl 992?

Do you think that blue is better than orange?

or is the letter M better than the letter W?

Impossible question to answer. 8)

Yes.

but W is better than M if know what I mean 8-)

Yes...I think I do.

Wombats are far better than Muskrats.

I would say I prefer W than M 8-) but as you said before what is better? hard to tell 8-)

Theres a certain 'fade' on this post. Its heading towards the twilight. Soon to be extinguished.

Bassticks? BASSSTICKS? I GOT YER FRIKKIN BASSSTICKS RIGHT HERE!!!!

Its expensive to be in this business.

If you really want some business, you HAVE to charge for your time. You want to set a rate that people will think they're getting a real deal.

But NEVER for free.

Heres one that works.

Studio time....$15/hr. FREE Set-up for the drums.

Those of us who dont want that kind of clientele, always double the rates AND I charge from the moment your guitar case hits the floor of my shop.

Unless I like your stuff and then we work out a deal for a whole project.

OK, the guy who sold Gertok the drums was actually selling Sabian Symbols and Base Drumsticks - exactly translated from the Craigslist add.

I thought it was funny and decided to run with it, then Bob added the comment from the video game, and the rest is history...

Exactly!

I'm on the set here! Base sticks in hand! I'm slow but at least I'm late!
