TV Everywhere: Cable’s Attempt to Avoid Extinction

January 21st, 2010 Greg Loesch No comments

Cable TV’s days are numbered. I say this in the way I say the phonebook’s days are numbered. Sure there are some people (of the *cough* older *cough* nature) that still frequent the physical yellow pages, but I can’t see the number of users doing anything but plummeting soon. No, I have no numbers. I’m using my super-keen 21-year-old intuition… which is as good as gold. Read more…

Free Google Wave Invites!

December 1st, 2009 Greg Loesch No comments

I was one of the fortunate individuals who received an early Google Voice invite. I honestly haven’t done a whole lot with it, mainly because I don’t know many people that have it… but I will say it’s pretty nifty nifty. In case you’re out of the loop, here’s a quick, concise video demonstrating Google Wave.

It was brought to my attention that nearly all the links to blog posts are currently broken. I just recently switched web-hosts, and the migration didn’t go as smoothly as I had hoped. I’m working to resolve this ASAP. Everything is now working as it should :)

Thanks for your patience!

Mae – Concert Set List – Skully’s 11.1.09

November 4th, 2009 Greg Loesch No comments

I just went a Mae concert on 11.1.09 at Skully’s Bar & Grill in Columbus, OH, and as usual, I kept record of their set list. It was an overall good concert, and the small venue made for a pretty cool experience.

Guitar: Messin’ Around Drone-Style

October 28th, 2009 Greg Loesch 1 comment

This was an unfinished blog post from a few weeks ago that I thought I’d post. I was watching an Acoustic Guitar Techniques podcast – lame, right? – and this was my  ”application” of the Drones and Chord Relations lesson.

Like a lot of guitar principles/techniques, this was something a lot of you guitarists have probably already messed around with without knowing the proper name for it. It involves constantly picking (droning) on open strings (usually b and high e) while changing finger positions on other strings. It’s relatively easy and comfortable to play, and the open strings give it a “full” sound making it fun to jam with by yourself.

Here’s my drone diddy: Read more…
