What are you listening to ? (Music thread)
DooDiligence replied to Spekulatius's topic in General Discussion
If I remember right, you play bass? I've been heavily tilted towards jazz, with a fat beat and bass. The Yamaha MOXF has some great arpeggiated drums and that's what I mostly use for rhythms. I use a looper pedal to lay down a harmony (4, 8, 12 or 16 bars), and then practice melodic improv over that using blues scales, octatonic and whole tone and broken chords. It's one thing to do it in the studio and another thing entirely to do it in front of a crowd or a camera. I'm slowly working up the courage. Just learned Crazy, (Willie Nelson wrote it for Patsy Cline), and it fits perfectly with a jazz set. Most people would call it country but it's definitely not, (ii V I progression, shot through with extended chords, puts this squarely into the jazz bucket IMO). I add a lot of right hand embellishment that the original keyboardist included. A lot of the theory I learned comes in handy for re-harmonizing with passing chords. I love the way that F7#5 fits in between the 1st 2 verses, (at the last bar on the attached lead sheet). I wish I had some people (40 yo and up), to start playing with. -

Soul Kitchen is the only Doors song I can do, and I do it as a playalong with the mp3. I've finally gotten out of academic mode and have started building a repertory of mostly jazz covers with improv. I plan on getting out this Spring and doing open mics. When I find some people to play with, recordings and videos will get posted for sure. -

That Fender Rhodes sound + the Vox Continental. I get both of these from a Yamaha MOXF6. On the Numa, I set an upper and lower manual to get the left hand bass. I should probably work up some Doors. The only thing I can play now is Soul Kitchen. -
What is FACTSET and is it worth it for investors
DooDiligence replied to Camo117's topic in General Discussion
I like the monitoring tab for a quick way to find discussions by people who are significantly more capable than myself. The quant data is close enough for me. -

Love that B3 sound. I've been playing a Studiologic Numa 2 organ for a few months now. For anyone interested, the Numa is a good drawbar clone wheel with an excellent key bed and a nice Leslie emulator. You can get one for less than $1000. The metal case makes it eminently roadworthy. I don't use bass pedals but have developed a pretty good left hand. Jazz... -
ethnocentrism in a 24 hour news cycle, go figure personally, I think Putin got exactly what he wanted (without a shot being fired), when westerners left the country he's an expert fiddle player

Optimization is an individual responsibility. Ads are dynamically generated based on site content and your browsing habits (and possibly conversations while an internet connected microphone is present). OTOH, affiliate banners, which I don't see here, are a more effective method of monetization. They can also provide more targeted and useful services to site visitors. If a publisher (Parsad + users = auto-generated content), produces a significant percentage of activity for an affiliate program he would become a super-affiliate. This leads to more opportunities and better terms with affiliate managers. PPC and PPI generates chump change in comparison.

I prefer the stability of the large caps. I plan on holding for a very long time. Anyone who wants to make money should do the opposite of me.

LOLZERS, my mistake. I'm sure you're a great guy. A little thin skinned, but a prince nonetheless. -

DooDiligence replied to BG2008's topic in General Discussion
Perceptions are subjective. Sharing doesn't imply any such thing to me. You have to force selfish toddlers to share. Toddlers are also poor judges of merit. Being magnanimous is great. Refusing to be generous simply because someone tells you it's required is petty and immature and negates any generosity you think you may possess. Altruism requires no recognition and does not seek it. If you get pissed because someone doesn't bend a knee to your largess, well... -

Conversely, could it not be considered greedy to be unwilling, and in fact hostile, to the idea of sharing wealth that will probably never see the light of day to begin with, while mindlessly grasping for more? Judging the worthiness of recipients based on vague generalities may make it seem not. Value rotation indeed. -
