  • The big influence was Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys. That was the album that flipped me. The musical invention on that album was, like, ‘Wow!’ That was the big thing for me. I just thought, ‘Oh dear me. This is the album of all time. What the hell are we going to do?’ So, Sgt Pepper eventually came out, basically, from the idea that I had about this band. It was going to be an album of another band that wasn’t us. We were going to call ourselves something else, and just imagine all the time that it wasn’t us playing this album. So, I had this song written of ‘Sgt Pepper’, who, twenty year’s ago today, taught us to play and we’re his protégés and here we are.

    Thats why you virtualize. I have a program that I must use from time to time because of legacy issues, and much content in their propietary format. The solution was either pay out the wazoo for accesing my own content a few times a month, or arrr it. A download, and a VM does the trick. And bonus, I can use it in Linux, too.








  • 1 person: what fits in the hole when you place your index finger against the first joint in your thumb. 2 person, second joint. three person thumb tip. Smaller rations, loose fit, larger rations tighter fit. Try a few times to adjust for your hand size. It’s just a step above eyeballing, but shockingly effective.

    Edit: Not that hole, I see you coming. And not coming that way. Jeez, the infantilism!
