A lil more GT history

[R. Shackleferd]

Yep, so me and Bigbuda got together last weekend out at his new place and jammed for a few hours. He's even cooler in person. And he's quite the gear hound I saw, all around, from his stack to rack effects to his guitars I'm somewhat envious. Still, I love my guitar(s) and I get by just fine with my Pod. But anyways, most of the day we played over May's backing track, with numerous takes. Some of me on acoustic w/him on electric, and some of me on electric and him on clean electric. I believe he has some of the better takes saved, but I dunno. I don't think either of us had a flawless take all day, but we had our moments...usually not at the same time, lol. And I also got to see his deer trophies that some may be familiar with. So overall we shared some grins and some finger pains. And best of all he didn't rape or kill me as some internet meet-ups go. :D

I'm afraid we don't have any pics or a shout-out video like PRS and Leedog, but whatever. It's still history nonetheless, if not as entertaining for everybody else.

[magicninja]

That's great man! But did you get any deer jerkey? That's where it's at.

[6strngs_2hmbkrs]

you know, we still gotta have that giant GT meet in that cornfield in Iowa! lol

but that's great, seriously! maybe one day I'll meet up with someone on here :rolleyes:

[Akira]

I'm gonna fly over to the deep south to meet PRS one day, I swear.

[Hammurabi]

you know, we still gotta have that giant GT meet in that cornfield in Iowa!
That cornfield is Iowa.

[jiujitsu_jesus]

That's really cool! Hopefully Buda will be able to post some of those recorded takes.

[PRSplaya]

That sounds awesome!

If anybody ever finds themselfs near "Sippi", you're all welcome to stop by and stay.

actually i live in florida. im very close to mississippi. maybe on march 5 i can stop by to have like a double-birthday party.

[earthman buck]

I love GT history. If any of you folks ever make your way up to Manitoba, stop in at Asbestos Manor and say hi to me n' acapella.

what state is that? :confused:

[magicninja]

Canada man.

[6strngs_2hmbkrs]

Canada man.
oh... right... I knew that

it's amazing y'know... how a guy like me can graduate high school two years early, be in college at the age of 16, get straight A's (in college!) and still be this stupid. :D

[PRSplaya]

Sounds like a plan to me.

[jiujitsu_jesus]

Similarly, if somehow any of you ever find yourselves in Sydney, I'm about an hour's drive away. So, for many of you, that's only about twelve hours' flying plus a one hour drive! :D

Except of course for CW and Jeff, who are actually in the same time zone as me...

okay, one day of drinking was fine... but you can't be drunk two days in a row, seriously.

[jeffhx]

wow u can tell ey...but it wasnt so bad...i swear...

[pure]

well jeff if you weren't so busy being drunk you could probably save enough cash to get some metal lessons.

I've always wanted to go to Australia, I live in Michigan

[bigbuda]

WOW! I can't believe I missed this thread. :confused: Seriously though, Rusty is one helluva guitar player and I too am gratefull that he didn't kill me either. I've been pretty busy lately, but I will get around to posting those takes we did. I had a blast jamming with you Rusty. We'll have to do it again for sure. Oh, Ninja man...I'm outta the jerky at the moment. :( But I do still have some summer sausage to hold me over. ;)

[iiholly]

I was in Biloxi, but that was like during spring break. I'm hoping to move to New Orleans though. My brother is going to be my land lord, it shall be good times. Woop I'm in Virginia soon to be in West Virginia, blehg. Of course you all are welcome to visit.

acapella and earthmanbuck are from Cananda... that explain a lot. :D

[Lordathestrings]

... acapella and earthmanbuck are from Cananda... that explain a lot. :D

I'll have you know, I resemble that remark? :confused:

[PonyOne]

well... considering I've never even left the US before in my life... I think you might be waiting for a while...

I may go up to canada when I'm 18 for one last hoorah before I go to college (as in a 4-year school... not community college like I'm going to now) of course, it'd have to be on the west side of canada if I were to visit anyone while I was up there.

[PonyOne]

Vancouver is way nice. Probably wouldn't be a bad place to go to school.

[ericthecableguy]

acapella and earthmanbuck are from Cananda... that explain a lot. :D

Canadians pshh. :D

[6strngs_2hmbkrs]

Vancouver is way nice. Probably wouldn't be a bad place to go to school.
no I didn't mean go to school there... I said "one last hoorah" and I'm pretty sure the legal drinking age in canada is 18... so when I'm 18 I'll go to canada and.. well... party! for like 3 or 4 days... then come home and go off to college

[earthman buck]

so when I'm 18 I'll go to canada and.. well... party! for like 3 or 4 days... then come home and go off to college
We Canadians don't believe in parties. Go home, yank. We have some studying to do.

[6strngs_2hmbkrs]

that's ok, I'll bring the party with me. :cool:

[PRSplaya]

A lil more GT history is being made at the moment, down in the South. More details to follow a bit later on ;)

[pure]

somebody's comin over your place?

[R. Shackleferd]

I sure hope it's his place, and not mine...I haven't cleaned up :)

[ericthecableguy]

It's 18 in Quebec. You'd have to wait another year in Ontario...even though fake I.D.'s are used by pretty much everyone underage anyway.

[iiholly]

somebody's comin over your place?

Obviously. That's a very un-nosey way to put it though. You could have just said "who's coming over to your place?" That's the way I would have rolled.

[pure]

well i'm sorry iiholly, but be assured next time i need my questions to PRS corrected i'll be sure to run it by you first.

[iiholly]

you're forgiven

[Akira]

One day when i'm like... world famous, I will go visit some people.

[rockonn91]

...or they'll be visiting you, asking for money.

[pure]

...or Akia will be visiting me. Come on, who doesn't like a Florida summer?

[rockonn91]

true, I have sailed in the keys, great sunsets... downside: alot of gay dudes in key west. doesnt work for me.

[Akira]

true, I have sailed in the keys, great sunsets... downside: alot of gay dudes in key west. doesnt work for me.

Well no one said you have to have sex with the gay dudes.

[iiholly]

gay guys=downside for girls not for guys

That's the word. :D

[6strngs_2hmbkrs]

...or Akia will be visiting me. Come on, who doesn't like a Florida summer?
*raises hand feebly* humidity sucks. I enjoy a california summer though; today was about 95, humidity was fairly high because it rained a couple days ago (which is extremely odd; it usually never rains after mother's day until october); forcast for tomorrow: high of 83, humidity about 35%

of course, living this close to san fransisco, gay guys are abundant. it doesn't really bother me though. I don't discriminate; so as long as they don't come within a 3-foot radius of me, I'm fine.

[Akira]

What's with all the homophobia?

[jeffhx]

wats wrong if they come within 3 feet? what wud you think wud hapen?

[pure]

yea 6strngs i don't see you raping a girl every time you get within 3 feet of her.

[6strngs_2hmbkrs]

yea 6strngs i don't see you raping a girl every time you get within 3 feet of her.
how do you know? I might....

wow, it seems that everything I said yesterday is being interpreted wrong (or, more likely, I didn't communicate them correctly) what I meant was, I don't have anything wrong with gay people, but don't get too close (as in, flirting/hitting on me...)

[ericthecableguy]

*raises hand feebly* humidity sucks.
.

True that. I just got home from baseball...it's 33celcius, which is 91.4 ferenheit. I'm going to go puke now...

[R. Shackleferd]

91 eh? That's partly cloudy weather here. :D

[iiholly]

I find it to be flattering. I'm just weird like that though.

[ericthecableguy]

91 eh? That's partly cloudy weather here. :D
Ha, well this is Canada. Stop by when it gets to be -26 ferenheit, and we'll see who's laughing. :D

[magicninja]

Sorry about Canada. I know a secret, huge secret, a few people know as well. I won't name names. I value my life but this is one of those secrets that can change life (GT to most) as we know it. You can imagine the possibilities. Maybe. most will be like :eek: some may go :D but either way it will affect the very foundations of what you believe to be possible. I hope I didn't get you guys worked up or anything. Have a nice day!

he's bluffing

[magicninja]

Yeah let's go with that.

[jeffhx]

'nuff said

woot

[R. Shackleferd]

Hmmm, well now I'm curious. Would you tell us if we guessed? Has GT been sold to the Chinese and will shortly convert to Chinese character font?

[magicninja]

Would I tell you if you guys guessed? No. I'm sworn to secrecy and it's not mine to tell but I want the anticipation to eat at you guys until the truth is revealed. It should be great fun watching the reactions.

[Akira]

I might join in on the anticaption stirring.

Mwuaha.

[magicninja]

Yes, there are few who know.

[iiholly]

I wish I never read this thread now. It's going to bother me... until I get offline and get distracted.

[acapella]

Something about a secret, huh? So...when do we find out?

[magicninja]

Whenever the powers at be decide to declassify the info. I've said to much so I must go into hiding.

[earthman buck]

This is awesome, because I'm one of the few who knows.

I love the loop.

I seem to remember reading that you only gave me that rep because you couldn't give it to ninja. Therefore, it is tainted rep.

But seriously, i almost pissed my pants when i first saw it.

or it could just be a girl taking a picture to see how she looks like before she puts her wig on.

[Akira]

I heart the loop.

So much POOOOOOOWWWOOOORRR!!

[iiholly]

Too bad your loop is for losers.

[Akira]

Too bad your loop is for losers.

Too bad your loop is for loners.

Oh wait, I shouldn't pluralize that... I jest. ;-)

[iiholly]

Too bad I'm going to internet punch you in the face.

[Akira]

oh crap... now I can't decide which loop I want to be in.

Well, you can't be in a loop without knowing the knowledge that that loop holds.

[iiholly]

I assure you my knowledge is superior to the other loop's knowlege.

[6strngs_2hmbkrs]

can I be in your loop iiholly?

[magicninja]

I assure you my knowledge is superior to the other loop's knowlege.
Extremist propaganda....

[Akira]

can I be in your loop iiholly?

Her loop is for loners, don't start internal contradictions within a loop!

[iiholly]

Loops are GT's form of gangs. :rolleyes:

[magicninja]

(New York Italian Accent)Loops? WE Don't know anything about no loops! Boss! Do yous know anything about no loops?

[6strngs_2hmbkrs]

Her loop is for loners, don't start internal contradictions within a loop!
that's what you said! those words never came out of her mouth (or rather, fingertips) and I believe that only she can decide what her loop is for! otherwise it wouldn't be her loop!

[Akira]

that's what you said! those words never came out of her mouth (or rather, fingertips) and I believe that only she can decide what her loop is for! otherwise it wouldn't be her loop!

All this talk of loops makes me want to arrange a mass suicide event.

I believe you can join my loop kind sir, unlike some people who are not invited to my fine loop.

Obviously you have never attended a mass suicide gathering before.

Well now you may spread the word. :cool:

I'm confused as to what that link is all about? Says my rep is even and then the amount of rep I have?

[magicninja]

Hmm. tells me the rep fairy won't visit your house this year. :eek:

[Lordathestrings]

... I'm confused as to what that link is all about? Says my rep is even and then the amount of rep I have?

I get the all-too-familiar "You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Akira again.
"

[iiholly]

so loops are now cults... great... atleast i only have to brain wash myself

[Akira]

I get the all-too-familiar "You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Akira again.

Ahh, must just be me then.

Ohwell, you owe me. :p

The loop is good.... very good... :cool:

That seems very appropriate for members of a loop that is alleged to involve loners.

I qualify. May I join?

[earthman buck]

That seems very appropriate for members of a loop that is alleged to involve loners.

I'm sure you can join mine and ninja's and akira's and PRS' loop. It's the stronger of the two loops. You just have to ask one of the higher loop powers. I'm a mere loop sapling.

Hey, the word 'loop' really is very funny.

[Loopy Looperson]

Ha! I created my own loop, and only I know who I am, unless a mod looks up my IP address, but then they'll unknowingly create another loop! Plus the loop(s) I'm already in...I'll be the loopmaster, infiltrating, controlling, and creating loops everwhere. I might need a looped notebook to keep track of it all.

[magicninja]

Loopy, how appropriate. Acting like a git with a fake name will get the real you banned just as easy. So don't say I didn't warn you.

[jeffhx]

......people are really starting to get obsessed with this loop thing...some people..if not one... :D

[iiholly]

I ate me a chicken once.

Yeah you can join my loop LATS.

i'm in holly and lats's loop.. so we're the cooler loop.

and i know who loopy looperson is.

[magicninja]

I also know who Loopy is so disregard my last comment you ain't no trouble maker. :cool:

[earthman buck]

I'm unbelievably tempted to just tell everyone the secret so the word "loop" will stop being used forever.

[ericthecableguy]

I don't think anyone cares anymore. It's all getting quite redundant.

[Akira]

Oi.

Who gave me negative rep with a message saying "haha", referring to my mass suicide post earlier?

[R. Shackleferd]

I don't think anyone cares anymore. It's all getting quite redundant.
My thoughts exactly.

[PRSplaya]

Soon my children... soon :cool:

for the record, I am also in that loop.

but, erm, yeah, this loop stuff is getting quite annoying actually.

[PRSplaya]

Ok, the cat is out of the bag now... Seek, and ye shall find the truth...

[6strngs_2hmbkrs]

Ok, the cat is out of the bag now... Seek, and ye shall find the truth...
so I was right in the other thread where I said you and Tonja getting together was the "big secret" that magicninja had this whole time?

[magicninja]

Why do you have to use my name more people knew. Good thing you went to college at 16 you might not have figured it out.

[Lordathestrings]

... Good thing you went to college at 16 you might not have figured it out.

And Eric's new signature wasn't any kind of clue? :rolleyes:

[earthman buck]

And Eric's new signature wasn't any kind of clue? :rolleyes:
Not to mention Tonja's. And mine, once you piece together the first two.

[iiholly]

I was in the loop the whole time, and didn't even know it.

[6strngs_2hmbkrs]

Why do you have to use my name more people knew. Good thing you went to college at 16 you might not have figured it out.
well, weren't you the one saying "I've got a big secret that'll affect GT as we know it" that's why I refered to it as your secret. anyway, now that we all know that much, why don't you fill us in on some details!

[earthman buck]

well, weren't you the one saying "I've got a big secret that'll affect GT as we know it" that's why I refered to it as your secret. anyway, now that we all know that much, why don't you fill us in on some details!
I'll tell you everything I knew/know about it.

Tonja and Eric had been talking to each other via private messages for about a month, if not more. They hit it off, so they decided to get together and meet in person. They did. They are having a great time.

[magicninja]

well, weren't you the one saying "I've got a big secret that'll affect GT as we know it" that's why I refered to it as your secret. anyway, now that we all know that much, why don't you fill us in on some details!
Yeah, I got everyone riled up about it but Prs had mentioned it 20 posts before I did.

[pure]

I was in the loop the whole time, and didn't even know it.
haha me too. i saw prs and tonja's sigs a long while back and was like 'ok, this has absolutely nothing to do with magicninja's secret'

[6strngs_2hmbkrs]

so... when are you two getting married (and don't deny it, you know that you will, it was meant to be ;)

[jeffhx]

this is amazing...have fun u guys...

i love GT to ever leave it...period

woot

[Akira]

It's about damn time you let the secret out Eric. :p

Congrats to you both. :)

Guitar Tricks: slapping on the ball and chain since 2006.

[6strngs_2hmbkrs]

thats it...im gonna keep my fingers crossed and hope the same thing happens to both me and holly...
I know you edited that out of your post, but I'm gonna quote it anyway. but anyway, I don't think that you and holly could get together, you see, jolly already has dibs on her.
