On reflection, I have done such a huge amount of music and done so much playing out this year - and I plan to do more as I work on retirement, in two groups and working with a recording artist. It's been awesome. I know it's not winter yet but today's gig (and tomorrow's gig!) just hit home...

Seeing as how Carney has just put Evan Siddall - you know, the guy who said that people shouldn't be able to own homes and that the equity wealth of homes should be taxed to "improve" intergenerational inequality, that guy - into the position as director of "Build Canada Homes<tm>", it's very...

I have a zero-turn Toro that has held up really well for 8 seasons. Was in the ballpark of $5K in 2019.

Having 3,000 watts of power with the speakers 6' or so off the floor means that playing some practice bass through this system is crystal clear and lets me get enough volume (but not outrageous, the board is set to roughly -40db with 50db of volume to go). I brought down a 4x10 cab and the big...
