Get Back

I do occasionally mention how hopelessly outdated I generally am (which you can read as ‘Can’t do CSS properly’) , but a quick glance at the barometer of hip, technorati, shows that there’s no point anyway. A while back I showed you the awesome new Randy Rhodes Amp, and yet it took until yesterday for any serious traffic to pass over the page. All fine, except how come it took so long? I mean, guitarists are, perhaps bizarrely, some of the most bleeding edge technophiles around, constantly searching for new emulator responses and modelling tech, and marrying the whole thing to vacuum tubes and exotic woods in a steampunk orgy of hot rockin tunes, yet it takes a month for them to start checking out the major release of the year by the major amp producer? I guess what I’m saying is, if you spot something new and cool, don’t even look at it-otherwise you’ll just have to put up with a bunch of divs telling you about it incessantly 6 months later, by which time you’ve moved on to haptic pulse emmitors or something, and are listening to music created by the sun, while they tell you to check out a ‘crazy new band called Rammstein’ (This actually occurred in the pub the other day) or ask if you have myspace. Anyway, despite all the grinders trying to prove otherwise, you can’t possibly keep up with net cults, so I am now advocating getting behind the times, which is especially useful as A: It is nearly summer, and I will be too hot to do blogs, and B: I am generally very lazy anyway. OK, so get your Linen suit and cravat out of storage, take a healthy dose of snuff, and rather than pretending to be a steampunk, just act like a regular Victorian dude (Without the cholera obviously), and enjoy a time without Amy Winehouse, when this sort of thing counted as entertainment:
