Yeah don't want no drummers and keyboard players thinking they can just come in uninvited. :D
I want them to come in so they can experience the joy and thrill of becoming a member but then taste the frustration of being denied the right to post.

Their basic human constitutional right for free speech, tugged away from under their feet.


Muhahahahaha

As I work part time, I need to fill my days.

If anyone wants a lift from Auckland and back, I can probably assist. Provided you're in the SH1-adjacent area. Be prepared for a lot of John Mayer and Phoebe Bridgers on the stereo.

I’m planning to have a crack at live-streaming this weekends gearfest.

I imagine I should be able to periodically go around the room looking and chatting about different gear. Meet the team etc. probably gonna make Slowy do the talking lol.
Bad Idea. I'm crap at talking. I need to write stuff down and check it's actually what I meant to say.
Don't talk to me about failure; sometimes I even fail to disappoint myself.

Oh Bruce, just wear your tightest t-shirt, biggest smile and say "wow" at everything. Works for that lanky bloke who does the rundowns on YouTube.

While I thoroughly enjoy Bruce's company, I'm considering not going now.
Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and he'll spend thousands on fishing equipment he'll use for a bit, then get bored and move onto something else.

I think we need to set a minimum short length for Saturday. They must extend below the testicles. Not looking at anyone in particular :shock:

Tricky, with the age of most members that could require full length trousers.
