Doing Things Wrong

Music (2/4)

WordPress makes it so damned easy to embed YouTube videos.

I always thought of Sade as a very stylish singer, but not necessarily a great one; kind of weak, actually. A model who could sing a bit. I was wrong. Watch these concert videos.





Here's a band that deserves a lot more attention:

David Letterman positively gushed over this band.
He's usually pretty snarky with the musical guest.
Too bad that video was taken down.

Can someone please explain this to me?
It's like a travel ad gone terribly wrong


Since I started on a Prog bender, I think I would be remiss if I left out Australian Progsters Angus and Malcom Young. True Monsters of Prog. Enjoy.

I was playing around with my new welder, and eventually, I did this. That is a 3/16" round attached to a 1/4" flat - a very common joint for a truss rod. It's not beautiful, but it is strong, you can see how I tried to pull it apart. Then I sawed the end off, and you can see it is solid - no slag inclusions, just two pinpricks at the 'corners' of the round. Welding is not as scary as I thought, but it is going to take a lot of practice. My welds seem to be a matter of luck, but my luck is improving.
