Doing Things Wrong

Tomorrow Never Knows

July 19, 2022

Since I mentioned it in the last post … Sir Paul getting a lot of mileage out of one note. I wonder if Geddy Lee or Les Claypool could pull this off?
Well, whaddayouknow ! Nope ! Les is doing alright, but Geddy is messing it up royally. Come on, man, show some self-restraint! I guess he picked the wrong week to quit smoking drinking amphetamines sniffing glue.

What the heck is this? At least the band is playing it right.

The more I think about it, the more that second video bugs me. Geddy is a pro, he should be able to play that bassline, it's not that hard. I want to see another video where he plays that song right, while simultaneously singing and making weird noises with his sneakers. I'm sure Alex would be happy to help on guitar (or sneakers.) Should take about two minutes to program up a drum machine, and just as well. I don't think Neil would have made it through the whole thing without having a fit on the rototoms. Somebody start a write-in campaign - we need to see this.

Ten bucks is ten bucks.
Beauty, eh?
Take off!

Piezos & Buffers

These are all of my piezo creations, so far. All of them utilize a version of the original single-transistor CafeWalter piezo buffer. He encouraged me to use his newer two-transistor version, but I never did get it to work. The simpler circuit works just fine, and I am a great fan of simple things that work.
