@amanda I’ve always wanted to get one of those pedal steel guitars like they use on this Randall king track here. I saw one once. It was a cool instrument.
@Va3ets oh wow.
@amanda Yeah, from what I remember it had 8 strings. That was years ago that I’d saw it though. Like probably over 20 years ago.
@Va3ets oh wow sounds like a cool instrument.
@amanda Hey Amanda, tuned in here
@Va3ets Thanks.
@amanda How are ya?
@Va3ets i'm good yeah, what about you?
@amanda Wow what’s going on, having issues with SPL today? Or a weird file?
@Va3ets I have no idea.
@amanda Do you have all your music stored on an external hard drive? If so, how long have you had that hard drive? It may be starting to go. This is one of my favourite cold play tracks
@Va3ets perhaps. i'm going to buy another one hopefully before it does. and I like this too.
@amanda Yeah me too, those are some of my favourites too
@Va3ets I'm not sure, quite a while.
@amanda Hey Amanda, tuned in here. Long time host of the game show, the Price Is Right, Bob Barker, passed away over the weekend. He was 99. He’d retired in 2007. NOt sure if you got that in the UK or not.
@Va3ets I think we got that show but not sure who did it.
@amanda This is my favourite track of Donna Summer’s
@Va3ets It's mine too.
@amanda This is my Mom’s favourite REM track, and mine too. I like the Mandolin in it. You should do this with the band you’re in
@Va3ets Me too and that'd be cool. I have done an REM song at choir. We did shiny happy people which is one of my other favourites.
@amanda OH you did the one that you played in choir? Nice.
@Va3ets We didn't do that one though, we did shiny happy people at choir. Losing my religion though would be a good one for either choir or the mandolin band.
@amanda OH yeah it sure would be. Yeah I remember hearing Shiny Happy People from one of your choir concerts
@Va3ets yeah I think I remember playing that one.
@amanda This is a good track
@Va3ets it is.
@amanda Ah, there’s a string part in there from another song. Always cool when they do that
@Va3ets yeah bittersweet synthony by The Verve.
@amanda Do you have perfect pitch? I do.
@Va3ets NO, I wish I did though.
@amanda Ah interesting. Don’t know if it’s something that can be developed, or if it’s just something that some people naturally have.
@Va3ets I'm not sure. I think though maybe you either have it or you don't, although I wouldn't know for sure.
@amanda LOL these two songs are in the same key
@Va3ets yeah they are. I noticed that, just because I played them one after the other.
@amanda Hey Amanda, tuned in here
@Va3ets HI, yay thanks.
@amanda Cool :) how are you?
@Va3ets I'm good, what about you?
@amanda LOLLOL, I was totally just going to say the same thing about the Mastodon client.
@Va3ets haha I thought you might.
@amanda This is a good track here
@Va3ets yeah it is.
@amanda Hey Amanda, tuned in here:)
@Va3ets HI, yay thanks.
@amanda How are you?
@Va3ets I'm good, what about you?
@amanda Same here.
@Va3ets cool.
@amanda Yeah. Did you end up getting a replacement harddrive yet? I got a good 4 TB one a while back off Amazon. Will try and see if I can find the same one in the UK store, and send a link your way
@Va3ets no not yet, but I will. it seems there's nothing wrong with mine after all, but still want another one because I need a back up of everything, so a link woul dbe good. I found out the problem was that it was going to sleep too quickly, and I went in to power settings and advanced and changed something, I've forgotten exactly what I changed now, but ever since then, I've had no problems, but I still need a back up.
@amanda Ah ok. Yeah the machine going to sleep too quickly would do that. Never actually thought of that at the time
@Va3ets I did wonder, so Googled it, and did what it said. If after that it wasn't fixed, then I would know there was something wrong with the harddrive, but it did fix it, but it's still best to have another one too.
@amanda Wow, looked it up, and it’s been since 2009 since Michael Jackson died, wow. That’s crazy.
@Va3ets yeah that's right.
@amanda Ah, I like Level 42 stuff as well. This is my favourite too
@Va3ets oh cool.
@amanda Hey Amanda, tuned in here
@Va3ets HI, yay thanks.
@amanda Agreed, mine too
@Va3ets Cool.
@amanda Love this track. Vertical Horizon was a good band. It was popular in like 2000, when I was going for my ham radio licence.
@Va3ets @amanda Yeah, time flies, was back in June of that year I believe.
@crazydutchy @amanda Yeah it was, 25th of June 2009. Not usre if it was ever truly found out who was responsible for his death either. Think that doctor he had that was suspected, got found not guilty?
@Va3ets @amanda I can't recall, but I guess often these things are not really solved. I remember I had just learned I might get this apartment, which I did several months later. Wow, 14 years ago already too.
@amanda @Va3ets Yeah, really strange to look back on that time, I had not imagined in my wildest dreams i'd be a radio presenter one day.
