:lol Nah, it sounded like really sloppy playing, but with lots of charm. I can see where early Pastels got their sound

Sorry, moving along to things you and the other geeks are into.....

Why did the node cross the two oscillators while Frank Zappa's Studio Tan was playing in the background on an 8 track player just moments before a King Crimson concert hosted by Brian Eno playing an Alan Holdsworth cover on a Rik Wakeman synth made by Hans Zimmer and a bunch of other prog rock wankers who no one's ever heard of except for circuit bending bedroom musicians wearing red hats and penguin T shirts?

circuit bending bedroom musicians wearing red hats and penguin T shirts

Thanks. I'll add the requirement, "must wear penguin T-shirt, if/when posting stills or vids of yourself" while contributing to One-Cable-Short collaborations. If only to confuse the masses. Unless you have a BeOS logo'd T, which is even better.

[VOODOO U]

I have no clue what a One-Cable Short collaboration is.
Is it a modular orgy?

[Shabdahbriah]

^^^ pretty much. Very posh. Very exclusive. Invite only. Kinda, an Ian Boddy thing, without Ian Boddy.

[VOODOO U]

Oh darn. I wasn't invited to a party where I can stick cables into holes.

here's another:

what beatles song(s) did paul mccartney play drums on?

(i don't know the answer)

AFAIK he played on all the Abbey Road tracks in 1969, as Ringo was busy filming "How I won the war?" and couldn't attend the sessions.

He also played on some stg pepper tracks (such as LSD and "why is she leaving home?") as Ringo was busy learning chess.
