@dcherring @spinfisher Vox has a midrange boost that Fender can’t emulate. EL84 tubes sound warmer than 6L6’s.

@Noneyuns52 @dcherring This. All of their original AC-30s would be 7 or 8 yrs old, the Super Beatles were 4-5 yrs old, the UL 730s were out of favor. Fender sent them a bunch of amps and guitars, and they used that gear almost exclusively in 68-69.

@JohnDalyBooks Really fun song to play in a band because of the odd time signature

[Viscount John Smith @theviscountJS]

@dcherring The multiple solos on “Do You Feel Like We Do” are really good- melodic, inventive, great phrasing- but I fear there’s likely quite a bit of overdubbing in the final product.

@HistoryBoomer Without the decision to liberate Western Europe, our world would look very different today. There’d be far fewer democracies for one, and economies and technologies would be stifled by a lack of freedom. Billions would likely still be living in totalitarianism.

@DanLamothe Sadly, our leaders no longer care about decorum. Do you think Ike or Churchill would make such comments? Whether true or not, today is not the day to bring up grievances. But these guys just can’t say no to their Id.

@neoavatara Had a 2 meat plate at a joint last night and they’ve definitely shrunk portions.

@cafreiman Tribalism for the win.

[Viscount John Smith @theviscountJS]

@mikenelson586 This is 2016 redux with the Access Hollywood tape. Horseshoe theory for the win (again).

@hughhewitt Im currently re-reading Citizen Soldiers and it’s better the 2nd time. Ambrose gets a lot of crap, but I challenge any historian to make WWII more accessible to the reader.

[Viscount John Smith @theviscountJS]

@dilanesper This feels like I’ve time traveled back to fall 2016 and the Access Hollywood tape. Watching D’s twist into pretzels justifing supporting Platner is EXACTLY like R’s staying with Trump after the tape release. Horseshoe theory and tribalism rule.

@Mikehomeseller East Side Story-Squeeze
Great songs with a flat lackluster mix that’s just blah

@AltuveEnjoyer That pitch was so fat it had to buy pants at the big and tall store

@DAaronovitch Your whataboutism isn’t working here. I believe it’s called “being ratio’d.

@prieurdp Do you know the turning radius of a half ton pick up truck? If so, you know that it is easier to back into a space than to pull straight in.

@RichardHanania @Noahpinion So deport them all and enjoy a complete economic collapse that would make the Great Depression look like losing a ten dollar bill.

@MarkDavis Vindication belongs to the senator who kills the slush fund.
