Dan Eickmeier@amanda Awwwwwww you should totally send me some, as I don’t think I’ve heard her before. Didn’t she have to do with you getting into the accordion too?
@Va3ets Yeah, she did. She had an accordion in the loft which she didn't play but it had been her brother's accordion who had died years ago. So she gave me it and I worked out how to play it. I still have it, although I don't play it that much since it's a 12 bass, and normally I need one with more chords, so mostly play my 72 bass.
@amanda Aw that’s cool you still have it. Did you ever know him at all? Or had he passed before you were even born?
@Va3ets I think he died before I was born.
@amanda aww. That’s cool you’ve got the accordion that he had though
@Va3ets yeah it is.
@amanda Was listening to this the other day. When was it released? Has to be like early 2000’s?
@amanda Was listening to that on the way back from my Grandpa’s funeral actually
@amanda I find those are tough to follow, if you don’t have descriptions. So good that you had them
@Va3ets yeah they are. The first one didn't have audio description at the time, so I think my sister whispered some stuff that was happening, but the others I saw did, which was good.
@amanda Ah yeah, that’s good that the others did. For sure
@Va3ets yeah it is.
@amanda Hey Amanda, tuned in here :)
@Va3ets Hi, yay thanks.
@amanda How are you? I’m good here, grabbed iOS 18 now, and it installed just fine
@Va3ets yay I'm good too. I installed the beta last week since I wanted to try the upgrade to Braille screen input. i'm liking iOS 18 a lot.
@amanda Awww cool. Now recording in stereo is finally possible in the voice memos app, it’s long over due
@Va3ets yay that's brilliant. I can't remember whether you said, will you be getting a new iPhone this year? I'm getting the 16 pro on Saturday.
@amanda And interesting, this is like the second track you’ve played that’s in e-flat minor.
@amanda Hey Amanda, tuned in here :)
@Va3ets HI, yay thanks.
@amanda How are you?
@Va3ets I'm good, what about you?
@amanda Still wating to hear back on the accordion that I’d brought in to get looked at.
@Va3ets oh right, hopefully you'll hear something about it soon.
@amanda Was going through some tapes I had a few years back, and found one of my Grandpa playing some Christmas stuff on the accordion, and he’d recorded it back in 1989
@Va3ets oh wow, that's really cool.
@amanda Yeah. If you want to hear it I could send it over
@Va3ets oh that'd be brilliant.
@amanda Oh ok cool. Sent it over. It’s there in our dropbox folder whenever you want to check it out.
@Va3ets oh yay thanks.
@amanda Wow, 2004 was the same year I’d started out on the organ
@amanda Hey Amanda, tuned inhere
@Va3ets HI, yay thanks.
@amanda How are you?
@Va3ets I'm good yeah, what about you?
@amanda There were so many people connected to him.
