RIG TALK primer thread for TGP refugees

[Geo]

I'm only motivated to keep playing by the money.

I made my money the hard way, now I am too old and tired.

Yeah, you can really immerse yourself in the producing world, unfortunately I have the attention span of a turnip.

Also it could be a very expensive venture.

By the time I fully get into it, it won't matter if I make money at it or not (although I will still have that in mind with external clients). It will be an artistic pursuit and a form of stress reduction therapy.

Think of the concert movie Pink Floyd at Pompeii. That's a Grail level event and a permanent record of a time and place when one of the greatest bands of all time was fully in tune. They didn't even have a single audience member, no Rolling Stone interview, no music "critics" in tow, just the movie/music crews, the amphitheater, and the sky above. But they were creating art.

I have enough money to not work starting tomorrow if I choose. But I need satisfaction.

Nickelback may have made lots of money, but I couldn't look in the mirror if I were a member of Nickelback.

^ I think I'd rather be poor and have a broken 1 sting banjo then play Nickleback songs

Then you are not a true musician

I don't have any money and I'm not starting work tomorrow but I have a gig Friday.

I'm not a musician, I'm an entertainer.

Being as like half of the RT regulars are HCAF regulars, that checks out

Key word is “yet”

 

[Ricky Rockhardo]

I think we need to start are rumor that posting on RT gives you a combo of herpes and super aids

 

[SonVolt]

Two weeks after a gushing honeymoon phase pedal review: "I couldn't bond with it"

That's hilarious.

Considering there is a rumor that the Teh Ghey Paige folks might be coming over here I think that is a great idea

 

[Ricky Rockhardo]

That's hilarious.

It all about those “German” diodes

 

[Beyond Black]

I had A.I. make this for you

You can’t say “fucked” on TGP, ban yourself.

 

[311boogieman]

that's why I'm here and not there

It's unbelievable the great sounding gear and recording stuff that is available now, the youngsters are spoiled.

After 45 years of playing and doing the band thing in my younger years, I just play for myself because I love to.

I have no urge to play for the public what so ever.

I am sure there are many in this same boat.

I'm in a similar boat. Did the band thing until it became more of a headache than it was worth. Now I play for myself because that's what I like.

I take in other aspects too. Did hobby building guitars for many years. I'll still build one every now and again, but I've slowed down on that. My current ambition is building amps and cabs.
