My daily... (media.kbin.social)
submitted 1 year ago by Doom_Cough@kbin.social to c/cars@lemmy.world

Since the slow start of a community here I might as well throw some stuff up here to fatten the numbers...

I am an alignment tech by day and music enthusiast 24/7. Been in the biz for 30 years. Seen all kinds of fads come and go. I like to cherry pick, mix and match, and try to come up with my own thing.

Being in the biz so long, and slowly turning into a tree hugging hippy who loves bicycles... I've grown out of love with cars, but I do still appreciate them. And for now I'm stuck driving this as it's paid for, and it'll run another 20 years as long as the rust doesn't take it. I've never had much opportunity and money to have a project car. I would of I could though.

Either way, I enjoy messing about with the look of my daily from time to time. The current guise. Not bad even when filthy.

By demons, be driven.

Is that the GR? Looks good either way. Once I get the new wheels on tomorrow hopefully I should post pictures of my wife's IQ in another thread. We have tons of love for the front wheel drive s*** boxes. I drive an XB myself. Toyota for life

What shop is this? Is that paint scheme that common in shops? I swear I know this place

I recall in a recent interview where he said he's actually a lefty. So when he started playing he had to very meticulously work on pick techniques as it didn't come natural. So I believe that's the result of as you said, tons of focused practice.

This just makes me want to bust into Gojira riffs. Top stuff.

I blurted it out in a chat one day in reference to something, and realizing it would be a clever band name or something... Well when I need a new identity to serve as a vehicle for my current creative output, here we are. I realized that it was at least somewhat clever and oddly not taken anywhere. So I am running with it.

shameless plug: doomcough.bandcamp.com :P

I also dropped in to say... I was just sewing up a battle vest of my own this evening so it's timely.

Adorable 🐶 OP

Bike and a blunt?

I recognize some peeps from the Flashback demo parties too.

Anyone using their retro machines to make music or for live use? I experimented with making live Acid music with a C64, using Mssiah, and a 303, etc. The timing of the 303 clone wanders sync too much as is but maybe adding a better midi clock like a modern drum machine to help keep it all synced.

Thought, opinions?
