@Omeletpants surprised you're a huge fan of such a junkie.
Who's the best Rock Band of all time and why is it Led Zeppelin?

He was a junkie when they wrote their best music.

"I just couldn't believe how bad they sounded," the guitarist recalled from his first rehearsals with the Stones. "Their timing was awful. They sounded like a typical bunch of guys in a garage -- playing out of tune and too loudly. I thought, 'How is it possible that this band can make hit records?'"

That quote was from 1969, not 1971. Once Taylor joined the band they started touring and Taylor whipped them into a cohesive juggernaut.....duh

It's what got me into them. I was so blown away by the emotion he was able to convey. It made me check out AFD and i was further blown away. GNR are def a bit of wasted potential having so few albums.
Personally i feel the VR stuff aged poorly. Contraband sounds stuck in 2004.
As far as You're Crazy - which one? The acoustic one on Lies is so better IMO.

I thought you were a “once a junkie always a junkie” type of person?

Loving the little amp that could. Only used it a few days, but I love screwing around with it. I have to do a deep dive on all these features through the app.

It's actually a bit louder than I expected. At 40 watts, I really wasn't expecting much, but it's got a little juice. It's a really solid practice amp. Looks nice too. I'm already falling in love with it. Really, the fact that I can also link it to my phone w/ the app and also use it as a bluetooth speaker was the icing on the cake for me. I might get a bigger amp in the future, but for what I'm using it for, it's perfect. I'm not joining any bands, I'm not playing live shows or anything, I just want to lose myself for a little while, and it does that.
There's so many features to explore in the app that I haven't even come close to touching the surface with. I do wish they gave me some kind of instruction booklet to lead the way. I've been practicing for at least 30 minutes every day, just learning chords and learning to transition chords, then I'm practicing Nothing Else Matters or play Rocksmith when the regular practice gets a little tedious or boring.

I have a small fender practice amp that’s only 10 watts and a Fender Quad reverb amp that is 100 watts. Well the 10 watts is not enough and the neighbors down the street have said the 100 watts is too much so I think I need to get the 40 watts to be good. I’m sold....I’ll tell them you recommended it to me.

Just so I don't have to search back through this thread, what was that amp called again? It looked sweet.

I had a practice amp before, I can't find it but I know it's around here somewhere, but this one has much more ability to change the sound. I know that I can play some background music to jam to as well, which will be nice when I'm able to make my own sound.

I bought it straight from their website. It's on sale currently. Actually, I got a coupon from a FB ad and ended up getting it for $240.
