Do you know what burns my ass?

A flame this high.

You know, Mark, somehow I sort of figured what the punchline was going to be before I even came into this thread but I just HAD to look...HAHA. I have never walked through the portion of the Hawk Studio forum before...

Having read the description for this area I have concluded that this would be the best place for me to share this image...I snagged this from the myspace profile of Andrew Giddings (keyboard player for Tull for the past 16 years). Whether you support Bush or not you have to laugh at this one.

Below this pic Andrew has posted..."On Your Knees, Blair!" I suppose he would have license to say something like that but I wouldn't dare...haha.

HAHAHAHA! Hey I think one of those Epiphone Les Pauls with the bolt-on neck (the kind in the beginner pack) would be better than a Jackson guitar. In fact, I just bought an ESP EC-100QM from one of my myspace friends that plays and sounds about as good as the Gibson Les Pauls they are making these days. This guitar cost me $150.00 and I'll bet it kicks Jackson's ASS!

Funny footnote...the guy I bought this from is a boat captain in the gulf who works 14, off 7, so we only see each other once a month...Swampman. He had some guy who heard his music on the internet sent him a genuine Gibson Flying V as a gift!! The guy said he was a Christian musician and just wanted to bless Swampy with a nice guitar....ok, that being said...when he offered to sell me the LTD I was home but he was at work. I agreed to buy it and he told me to go to his house and his girlfriend would accept my payment and give me the guitar. I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to sham him when I got back home. I sent him a myspace PM telling him the transaction was complete and I have his guitar..."and I just can't wait to tell everyone that I got The Swampman's Gibson Flying V for $150 damn dollars!!! I cannot tell you how much I appreciate doing business with you, cuz!" HAHAHA! He pm'd me back early early early the next morning...AFTER he'd called his girlfriend on the phone...HAHAHA...and told me that was a good joke. HAHAHA. I think I actually had him worried.

Know what burns MY ass?

Automated customer service sites - or customer service folks that can't f#$kin' read!

For the THIRD time (ya know, the one that's supposed to be 'the charm'?) myspace has responded to my request to change my personal profile to a musician's profile with instructions on how to upload music to the myspace player. Grrrrrr! :evil:

I'm praying it's somehow automated b/c with this last one I even pleaded with them to read my request CAREFULLY.

Ah well, it could be worse. Right?

At least I have my health...*cough* *HACK*

What REALLY burns MY ass...calling DirecTV Customer Service and being connected to someone physically located in F**king New Deli, India!!! How the hell can they relate that I can't receive the local Houston area channels??? I found this to be the same story whenever I call HP Support on their toll-free number for technical assistance. F**king New Deli, India!!!! WTF, OVER????? The HP geeks have been pretty good, however...the DirecTV people...MUCH different story.

MarkD, I feel your pain. I cannot remember how it was that I FINALLY got set up with a musician's account...I think I received an email or there was a banner ad on the myspace home page or something. They really SHOULD make the type of account you want to set up as a listed option whenever you register. Come to think of it, I wound up deleting my individual account once I created my musician account because I could find no way to convert the other one.

Youtube burns my ass too...there are times when I really wish to communicate with people over there and NONE of my messages go out, NONE of my comments get posted, and it appears NOTHING happens when I try to communicate in whatever way you can find over there. GRRRRRR.

Ok, rant is complete and I feel MUCH better now. :)

Agreed. This world is going to hell in a hand basket. Here is a video that I found appropriate.

I'll tell you another thing that really burns my ass...

With the recent passing of Denny Doherty, just before my birthday, I have again imersed myself in Mamas and Papas music.

Denny was the soul of the group and did most of the famous male vocal leads. Its a terrible loss.

Anyway...what burns my ass is....
The internet is flooded with mama and papa shit right now and all I keep reading about is how hot michelle phillips was. Jeeezus...over and over and over and over and over again. Gimme a fuken break!
THIS IS ABOUT MUSIC PEOPLE!!!! Cass and Denny carried most of the vocals. John Philips was a talented arranger/producer. Michelle Phillips was nothing but eye candy.

Their music was probably the best vocals ever produced by anyone, even to this day. Cass and Denny were IT!!! Michelle Philips was the only one that was replacable, and was at one point. GET WITH IT PEOPLE. ITS ABOUT MUSIC, NOT SEX DAMMIT!!!!

Okay...off my soap box now
