Good evening Jack and everyone on the net and thanks for doing the net tonight. I hope Bill is doing well wherever he's at. Well a lot of good subjects tonight. Yeah so congratulations to the Dodgers. I didn't really have a horse in the race. I could think of good reasons for both teams to win. But both of those teams were formidable and it would have been nice if the Mariners had gotten in there. But anyway, the fact that we did hold our own against the Blue Jays in that last, in the American League series. It was a good season but hopefully we get further next year. So now we move forward to the Seahawks and tomorrow night they're playing the commanders on Sunday Night Football on NBC. Which is always a good production. They do a really good job on NBC with Mike Chirico and Chris Collinsworth and all the people involved with that. So I'll be looking forward to that. But yeah a lot of great guitar talk. I don't really know exactly what to add to it but you know another rabbit hole is effects pedals. I mean you can get guitars, you can get amps. But people don't always talk about those little pedals that people play through. And I mean there's all kinds of different like delay things that use, actually have tape. Like the old tape act. The old tape act because I've actually got a thing called an Echoplex. Which is a, it's got a three minute tape that feeds through it. So it feeds through every three minutes. And so you physically move the tape head further away from the record head. And that's how you adjust the number of delays and then you can have it kind of feed back into itself. And then there's a sound on sound thing where you can play for three minutes and then it starts playing it back. And so that's a very cool device. I think for John a website that I think he'd really like is all about David Gilmour from Pink Floyd's effects. And the site is called Gilmourish. Just Gilmour with I-S-H at the end. And it's just like David Gilmour plays through all kinds of different pedals. His main one, especially in the early days was something called the Benson Echo Rec. And what that was, was it was a rotating magnetic drum with four different playback heads that could either be turned on or off. And it was a very imperfect device. But it created this kind of spooky sound. And one of the people who really popularized that was Hank Marvin from the Shadows back around 1960, 1961. I think he really started Space Rock in a way. So anyway, I could go on and on about this. But anyway, great net. This is KG70DB.
