Hey guitar enthusiasts...looking to put some pieces together and try to understand this instrument a bit better. Any advice on books, websites, tips that will get me started on theory? Looking for gradual steps or a progression based study method that builds up as it goes along. Basically, it needs to start from the beginning as I'd like to fill in as many gaps as possible. Been playing (trying) for just over a year and though I've got some chords, strumming, a few scales and a number of basic favourite tunes down, Im looking for something a little more cerebral. Suggestions? Im gonna most likely get some formal lessons going in the future but am pretty comfortable working on my own still. I have an "in house" expert but being taught by a loved one doesn't always seem to fly Love to hear what people think.... Cheers!

What about the DONAIR sub in Cowtown???

Feedback in the Field is pretty cool too....short and sweet. I think I just like where it was placed in within the tracks of the album though...

How many can you NAME...I couldn't come close to naming them all...i don't think

Fity

Fuck it, the Hawks won't need him anyhow...I like the look of their team without him on the bench.

Zoinks! March is looking pretty awesome....

Awesome band for sure....listening to this album right now and am really diggin it.

Food flashbacks....

And yes, those heady space burgers were so good I can taste them years later!

When I make it I use red kidney, black, pinto and a few garbonzo (chick peas). That 4 kinds! They pack a lot of punch.... You should try getting dry beans, soak 'em in water all day if you're making it at night or all night if you're making it the next day. They are WAY better than any shite from a can.. I also find that cilantro is key to a good batch of flame stew. I cook some in and I add fresh stuff at the end.

Actually is a stupid movie that shows how the Champion juicer works...

I don't question the nature of such delicious things! Actually, the one I have works on a mastication process...similar to how we "chew" our food, this thing has a rotary blade (with teeth, not knife-like blender blades) that spins, pushes the juice to the bottom through a screen (and into my cup) and the rest gets squeezed out the front end...

Well, a juicer separates the skins/seeds/pulp and hard bits from the juice while a blender just cuts it all up into fine bits. Not that those fibre "bits" aren't good for you but it becomes more of a sludge as opposed to a juice. Eh?

I think the juicer issue came up when Hux was buying his a while back but I'll toss in my bit.. I bought a Champion Juicer off of Craigslist. These have pretty much been one of THE companies making juicers for YEARS. You don't see too many used ones kicking around but you should be able to get one for less than 200 bucks used. You can check out the specs here but basically it is big and heavy with very few moving parts. The motor is key and they are built like tanks. As well, we use it for grinding nuts and making soups. You can also get an attachment for grinding your own grains. Basically these things have been pleasing hippies for decades.

Here is a good, nicely priced Malbec from Argentina. I think we pay about $16 per bottle in out here in BC. Made with organic grapes as well...

Imagine if you will...those meaty man hands lightly caressing your inner thigh as you gaze mercifully into those loving eyes... **Insert Flanders Scream HERE**

No wonder you're full of shit....

Just wondering what books people dig or are diggin' these days? We mostly eat veggie dishes so here are a few go to books when we're needing something new/easy. The Moosewood books: classic series that has tasty and simple recipes and interesting information in each book. Amazon Link to an endless list of Moosewood books Ethical Gourmet: I don't like the writing style or presentation of information in this book but the recipes are awesome. Every one I have tried has been successful. Farmer John's Cookbook: cool book put out by a cool farm. Great stories, great recipes.

Here is the recipe I use for Mulligatawny Soup. It is a coconut flavoured soup and this version has been pretty damn good (and simple - no 8 hour simmer time needed here): 1 1/2 cups chopped onions 1 celery stock 2 Tbsp of veg oil or ghee 1 chile, seeded and chopped (or more if you like it hot) 1 teaspoon turmeric 1 Tbls ground coriander seeds 4 cups water or stock (chicken/veggie) 1/2 teaspoon salt (or more) 1 medium carrot, chopped 1 large potato, small cubes 1 medium red or green bell pepper, chopped 1 firm tomatoe, chopped (I use cherry toms halved) 1/2 cup unsweetened grated coconut 1 cup coconut milk a couple Tbsp lime juice chopped cilantro Saute the onions and garlic for a bit. Add spices and stir in for a minute or so. Add stock, salt, carrots and spuds and simmer for about 10 minutes. Add pepper, tomato and coconut and coconut milk. Simmer for about 10 minutes. Add lime juice. I like to let it sit for at least 30 minutes to an hour. Add cilantro and salt to your liking and wolf it down.

Thanks for the input on this one...you folks rock.

What are your thoughts on Julie Doiron? Never even heard of her but I'm just looking for some skank insight as to what to expect at a live show...

Can't stand WATER IN THE SKY...fuckin buzz kill of buzz kills anytime I heard it...
