My thoughts on the Godfather: I'm not sure why I chose theses of all films to be on my list. Perhaps because I was curious about the third one and felt like I would never be able to really know how I felt about it unless I saw them all. It seemed like anything I heard about III was really polarized: it is some peoples' favorite, while many abhor it. I thought it provided a much needed (after the first two) human element to Michael Corleone. Sure it was 14+ years late, Sophia Coppola isn't the greatest actress, and it has a lot to do with the Vatican. It frustrating to see he is lying and vengeful in the first two so its nice to see Michael as someone with convictions, or at least a soft spot for his family.
Similarly, I would like to see Dark Knight, but have not seen it's predecessor, so I have been watching Batman Begins in 2 min. snippets all day.
annnnd... I made and played a "washtub" bass. Thought the washtub is more of an office trash can than a washtub, it sounds great through a contact mic mounted on the bottom (top). This method also works for making a bass out of a door...I played it at the chicken-wire-shit-sling-cage-match at Beerland (pictured). Thanks to anyone who came, threw stuff, participated, or all of the above.
so...
