In Japan with a phone and selfie stick, and feeling really stupid doing it. Definitely not being a "Japanese Culture" western thought leader in anyway shape or form #japan #music Just a one off thing... youtu.be/tzi3GdVedaw?...

Rick vs Billy Musician Interviews. To me Billy has been talking to more relevant to me people than Rick. Rick just loves music and lets them talk. Billy interrupts a lot and wants them to consider what he thought about their XYZ? Very different approaches. #music #comics #musicians

It was unexpected. But the DNS place I used was sold 3 years ago, and new company had automated systems to check I was still running a small business in Australia in the renual of that DNS. Stupid rule in my case. No point getting a new DNS in Google's no click thru search now so time to stop.

Closed our website of 20 years. The last 3 years had been 99.8% bots and AI skimmers anyway. It was time. I wasn't qualified to renew our DNS any more anyway.

Our 8 string. I have always been a MAKER (to use currently term), so modifying something to make it better/usable is not an issue for me. Had to modify this to make it tunable and stay in tune: art-and-technology.blogspot.com/2024/12/harl... #guitars #metal #maker

YOUTUBER-ISH chat on half-step-down-tuned-DROP-tuned 7 string, recorded DI, but monitoring thru DIST->MICRO AMP->10" CAB under the desk to get no latency. Added NAM + DAW processed sound back into video here. Edited out some too long pauses. No, don't think of myself as a "guitarist". #metal

Reading Stephen Palmers "fairly recent" book on the early Tangerine Dream years. I first heard Tangerine Dream from a German friend. An interesting read. Cool music descriptions. Doesn't really look it, but must be a Print On Demand book, bought from Amazon Japan. @stephenauthor.bsky.social

DRAFT: Comfort & Fear 130BPM. Touching on PTSD. A MUSIC + COMIC 7 years since retired and no nightmares now! 😃 Vocal delivery is probably more "musical theater" than rock, but am okay with that. Mixed Media Missive around this song: art-and-technology.blogspot.com/2026/06/comf...

Final Chapter - 85 BPM. Little ditty with some thoughts about life after retiring. Have acquaintances with health issues, like we all must. Our Final Chapter, maybe 25+ years, for others, something less. Here's to good health! megacurve.bandcamp.com/track/final-...

We have a cat "cheese in a tube" product that I used for a couple of months a year+ ago. Mixed in the powder medicine, then put it on his back teeth letting him eat it each time, before putting on more. Took some time He helps me clean his teeth anyway, so it wasn't all biting me 🙀..

Replacing Jazz Bass Pickups #music + #comic This week is GOLDEN WEEK holidays in Japan. Love the Jazz Bass, but hated the hum using just neck or bridge pickup. This fixed that problem. Did this Feb 2023. The Wilde Pick Ups were reasonably priced, and unusually, so was the postage to Japan.
