Limited guitar technique.
Better at guitar than piano – but knows it (“Oh Steinway, I’m not worthy”)
Shy and sweetly self-deprecating.
I can’t make out most of the lyrics.
I could listen to that voice all night.

Severed Heads – My Role In Their Downfall Pt 2
(This is a continuation of random addled thoughts in Part 1)
It’s a funny thing, going from fan-boy to band-member. It’s even funnier to be dragged out of nearly 10 years of musical inactivity to tour with a band that’s retiring after 30 years.. and, what’s more, in support of an act that’s showing no sign of retiring after 30 years. What does that mean?

My Eyes!
So there’s this show coming up and I decided I really don’t want to use Logic as a live instrument again – it’s entirely the wrong tool for the job. Mainstage would be nice but I don’t get paid enough to justify forking out for the full Logic Studio, and I wouldn’t be doing much else with it anyway, given how little music of my own I do these days. So I did a bit of googling last night and found a few contenders in the “performance-oriented VST/AU Host” category.
Including Jambalaya. Now, I’m sure the developer is a very nice person, and I appreciate all the work they’ve done on this free tool – it worked right out-of-the-box on my new hardware. But seriously. How can anyone look at it for more than 30 seconds without getting a headache?
..and so, with yet another reminder that good programmers do not make good UI designers, the search continues.
Update: I bought Logic Pro, with Mainstage. Ten days before Apple released it for 1/3 the price. Assholes.
