Starbucks finally discover something
Jun. 14th, 2010 02:46 pmThat Caribou, locally owned and operated coffee shops and the library already knew:
peeps like the free wifi!

Since the closest Starbucks is located in a Target store and small at that, this is actually anti-climatic news for me.

Flat-Top Box All Perdy Now
Jun. 14th, 2010 06:01 pmThis last Thursday, I went to GC (Guitar Center for those who have no interest in such things,) to check things out since I haven't been there since the my medical situation. I picked-up a copy of "Zappa plays Zappa" on DVD*, a copy of "Bass Player" (N.T.S.: Subscribe already, will ya?) Finally a guitar cleaning kit from Dunlop.
Why the cleaning kit? The acoustic that I have since 1986 that needed to get cleaned and restrung... badly. For those who want to know, it is the same acoustic used on "West Side of the Universe". Now that this is done, all I need is a quality case for it, a set-up (high frets here and there), and hopefully I can budget somehow an underbridge saddle pickup system.
* I will have to exchange the DVD since disc one has really bad bit-rot from the factory. Bummer, great performance anyway!
