I get it constantly. Between that and the incessant hero-worship I am
subjected to I hardly get a moment's rest.

Neil Young has always been one of my click artists. That means if I'm
driving along listening to the radio and a Neil Young song comes on, I
reach up and click the damned thing off. I look at my watch, count off
five minutes just to be safe, then turn it back on. The only exception
is for "Heart of Gold", and I only listen to that because of the
excellent pedal steel work on it.

I think of it as an example of the monkey with a typewriter phenomenon.
Let a guy write enough notes and enough words, put them together, and he
will eventually write something that isn't a whiny piece of crap.
KWW
I have many click artists.
Hey,speaking of steel guitar are you a Junior Brown fan?
Brian
Fuck,while I'm at it how about Robert Randolph or the Campbell Brothers?
Amazing steel guit picking.
Brian
Well, maybe he'll eventually turn out something. Have you heard Tim
Wilson's parody of a typical Neil Young song?
>
Not in particular. After having been fascinated by the dobro for over
20 years, I finally bought myself one about a year ago. Can't do shit
on it, but it's great fun trying. Thanks to Chinese sweat shop labor
it is finally possible to find one that even an impoverished truck
driver can afford. Way back when I first looked at them, they started
at about $2000 and went up from there. Nowadays you can get them
starting at about $300 to $500. Gives you a chance to see if you can
build up to justifying the expense of a nice one later on.
I have a pedal steel in storage. I fooled around with it just enough
to be put in total awe of anybody who can even halfway play one.
Played with both hands, both feet, and both knees as a general thing.
Since I am one of those who can't walk and chew gum at the same time,
I'll never get the hang of it.
They are amazing. I play a pretty mean slide guitar but pedal steel was
always beyond my ken. I tried though and had fun at it.
If you want I'll upload some of the awesome steel music I have.
Brian
You certainly are not in awe of me then. You'd think that with a correctly tuned
instrument you find at least one note that was correct. Maybe mine was broken.
Never did want to play Sister Golden Hair Surprise.

Amaze your friends! Baffle your enemies!
While I'm on that site, here's a picture of my dobro (it, not one like
it), though it looks much better than it photographed:

It is a way cool experience to pluck out a chord and then step on a
pedal or shove a knee lever and have it morph into something else,
ain't it?
>If you want I'll upload some of the awesome steel music I have.
Any and all music is welcome.
Just put up a couple of Robert Randolph and Junior Brown tunes that I have
had in heavy rotation lately.
Please try to enjoy them if you can.
Brian
But it's still a banjo.

a- wakatta, I wasn't prepared to show my ignorance.
I got a copy of Rust Never Sleeps I can rip for you.
I had one for, jeez, twenty years, and finally sold it; too embarassing
to have the thing for that long and not be able to do more than make out
of tune whiny sounds. BTW, do you have a copy of the Byrds "Sweetheart
of the Rodeo"? Probably some of the best played and recorded steel
anywhere, anytime.

That gt-3 is nice. I just recently pared down my effects setup to a
wah,chorus,and delay.
I was using entirely too much before.
Brian
Brian
Nope. Can you point me at a legal source for it?
Did hear an Australian techno version "Heart of Gold" back in 98, when I
was wandering around the outback. It was fairly interesting. Not quite
as good as the techno version of "Whole Lotta Love", though.
KWW
See what I can do.
Yeah, I understand. Live I use a compressor then chorus then a light tube
distortion and I don't really need the distortion. Problem is, in my little
Tokyo 2DK I can't run a 100 watt Marshall. The beauty of the GT-3 and 6 is the
amp and speaker simulations. With a bit of reverb it sounds like I'm playing the
Budokan even when I'm sitting on my little couch and listening with a set of
cheap cans.

No. If an illegal source will suffice, I can be of assistance,
perhaps.

Would you like to join those of us on the notoriously unreliable, yet
file-rich fjlij FAP server?
Yup!
Before I bought my boogie I was using one of those Zoom gfx-8 boards and got
the most gorgeous sounds through headphones.
But since I got that amp and have finally settled(uh....for now,I guess) on
what fx I want to use then that thing is gathering dust in the closet. I may
have to put it up for auction on yahoo japan or something.

That would be handy.For me!
Did you check out the stuff I put up for you yet,Mike? The steel players?
I am probably gonna throw up some Stern shows tomorrow. And if anybody wants
more after that....then again.
Brian
yes you got my details?
Nope. One of the things that I do for a living is sell CDs of software
for prices anywhere from tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Sometimes, I even e-mail it. Makes me pretty sensitive to the concept of
intellectual property rights, and pounds in the concept that "illegal
copy = theft." I try to practice the golden rule about such things.
KWW
I use GPL software almost exclusively.

If the guy that wrote it did so planning to give it away, it's no skin
off my teeth. We have a staff of 125 people that works hard designing
the instructions to make programmable hardware do complicated things to
precise customer specifications. We have to pay the staff somehow.
KWW
I've never worked on real time stuff, although I did work on EFT transaction
processing but that's not really the same thing.
I admire your integrity.

I got a chance to check out Brown's "Peelin' Taters" tune this
morning. An astounding piece of work.
I would be thrilled to death if I could just learn to do some random
fills and such, sort of like what Pete Kirby (aka Bashful Brother
Oswald) did for Roy Acuff. I like one comment I once found regarding
playing dobro in a group setting. Something like "It is as important
to know when *not* to play as it is to know *what* to play".

See separate reply.
>I am probably gonna throw up some Stern shows tomorrow.
Speaking of Stern and throwing up...
The one and only time I ever heard Stern was while driving east out of
Nashville one day. He was talking to a female caller who claimed to be
an unemployed single mother of about a jillion kids. She said that the
way she got food for them was to go out to dinner with a man, gorge
herself, and when she gets back home to puke it all up into a pan,
toss in a little flour or whatever else she had handy, and bake it all
up into a meatloaf surprise.
When pressed, she admitted that she did not get such meals for free.
She said she would usually blow the guy. Yes, that went into the
meatloaf surprise as well.
I've never been particularly keen to listen to his show a second time.
I'll still be glad to let you put them on the server, though.
