Was stalking a certain Beatle’s house on Google maps and realised that Henley-On-Thames is actually west of London, rather than east as I’d always assumed. 

Geography? a-hard-days-night-ringo-12

Any road, it just dawned on me that both my two favourite guitarists are/were Pisces*. (George Harrison – 25 February, and David Gilmour – 6 March) 

*Unless Starr Shine? says otherwise.

Well here’s a trivia point about the best birth sign…Pisces are the highest of the high-blood! That’s what someone told me, anyhow. I don’t believe in astrology.

I’ve told you before that George isn’t Pieces. And neither is David, they are Aquarius.

I want you to tell me by exactly what reasoning you arrived at that conclusion. You have said that before, but I can’t recall you explaining why. 

 

Either way, it’s quite funny that they were both born under the same sign.

Cause I put their dates in Stellarium which is a program that simulates the night sky and the sun was in Aquarius at the date of birth.

What does that mean, when the Sun is ‘in’ Aquarius? (We can all learn something today. a-hard-days-night-george-10)

You mentioned star signs yet you don’t know what they are.

Means that from our perspective, sun looks like inside the boundary of a constallation.

I was listening to the isolated guitar part for Nowhere Man from The Beatles Rock Band multi-tracks and realized George plays acoustic guitar as well as John, making it the only song with both John and George play electric guitar (in this case Fender Stratocaster) and John and George play acoustic guitar (in this case Gibson J-160E).

I’ll have to listen to it again now, as I thought there was only one acoustic guitar… But, I’ve been wrong before and I’ll be wrong again!

 

EDIT: There is too… Very good pick up!

Duct tape actually was originally called “duck tape.” The material, then unnamed, was used during World War II and soldiers nicknamed it “duck tape” due to it’s water-resistant properties.

I was told it was originally called duct tape because it was used to fix ducts… I’ve been had!

A CD player with an audio input can make a decent practise amp for an electric guitar if you don’t need any effects whatsoever. You have to turn the volume up to eleven, though…

Get one of these things.

Cost like 50 bucks and would give you a great Beatles sound, although you might want something to adjust the bass and treble frequencies, as well as some reverb, but it’s not like the CD player has that.

All white people in the US are racist (and are the only people capable of racism)

All cisgender straight people are homophobes

All men are sexist 

All living things must abide by the laws of the shape they inhabit

Information is different than knowledge.

Information doesn’t have to be correct and has a short shelf life compared to knowledge.
