Posted in General / I propose a game.

the rules are simple. find the oldest submission you can, and rate it. whoever rates the oldest unrated submission wins.

take a screenshot and put it here.

I will not be participating. it's summer, and the school collected the ipads this year. (edit: i also want to enjoy my time)

mods, please don't cheat. honor system here.

happy verifying

Posted in General / it takes a while; or, go out and verify your local gear submission

verification burnout....

but also, its not that hard. you just look at what they have then press yes or no.

Posted in General / it takes a while; or, go out and verify your local gear submission

verifying submitted gear takes a while for some reason. its a famous part of the website. here's an example of an extremely well-known item for that artist: https://ibb.co/4gWWnJWc it took five years. how about we change that, one submission at a time?

i encourage you all to go to your favorite, not too well-known artist and hitting the green (or red, when necessary). do your best, because there is the great possibility that you yourself were the submitter (like me and Louis Cato). go out and verify your local gear submission!

Posted in General / regarding redmonkey: advertising in submissions.

yeah, but youre misrepresenting my point. perfectly find with the brand, but asking for an expert's opinion on my issue.

Posted in General / regarding redmonkey: advertising in submissions.

its the advertising part that i dont like. its not related to how the artist uses it, or proof the artist uses it. thats what gets me

Posted in General / regarding redmonkey: advertising in submissions.

i dont really know how to start this.

found a.. an entity? sure, an entity guerrilla advertising in submissions for artists that use their stuff.

https://equipboard.com/redmonkey

i know that this isnt wikipedia, but i believe that their conflict of interest policy is a good one, and we should model equipboard after that.

thoughts? if anyone needs me, i will be going through their submissions cutting the ad parts. i ask that someone goes behind me and fact-checks the source

Posted in General / renaming the late show band

yes

Posted in General / renaming the late show band

add artist request sent. personally, i'd rename the current entry to "Stay Human" because the duplicate checker registers it for that and name the new one "The Great Big Joy Machine (The Late Show Band)" to cover all the bases

:salute: im in this for the love of the game.

Posted in General / Needs Review, still?

you could add a filter for the front page that only shows those in need of review.

i've also been quality rating things when i have the downtime (im a hs student so that is always) and the school's content filter blocks a lot of things. i do my best to help out, though.

Posted in General / I am new to Equipboard and I am unable to add items

try going to the specific piece of equipment's page, then press "save." it'll be somewhere, but it will be small.

Posted in General / We built a music gear deals tracker - want your feedback

it looks pretty good, but i never used the old one, so i wouldnt know. but you should fix the fact that it disappears behind the search bar on Safari for iPadOS.

Posted in General / renaming the late show band

I think that there should be separate pages for each, and most, if not all, streaming services are listed under "The Great Big Joy Machine."

Posted in General / renaming the late show band

Don't know if there are any Colbert fans on staff, but The Late Show Band have renamed to The Great Big Joy Machine. (shoulda said something two months ago)

Their album also recently dropped (self titled)

the Oberheim OB-8 was not used for "Jump." This was instead the OB-Xa, as it hadn't broken yet.

Posted in Guitarists & Bassists / updating legacy status

Since Morello is the only one who plays it, and its a uinque guitar on its own, shouldnt the Arm The Homeless recieve the "Iconic" status?

same goes for most of evh's guitars and Michael Anthony's Jack Daniels..

Posted in General / roles categorizing

cant find a way to get the screenshots in the post. i was thinking something like

orchestral strings --> violin, viola, cello, contrabass

brass --> french horn, trumpet, trombone etc.

other strings --> guitar, bass

percussion --> drum set, mallet, etc.

things like the brass and woodwind families is what im primarily thinking. mostly asking for myself

Posted in Guitarists & Bassists / How do i sound like Michael Anthony?

given the gear i have (player 2 p, rumble 25), what knobs do i need to adjust to sound like Michael Anthony?

Posted in General / roles categorizing

do you think you could categorize the "roles" tab like you have the "genres" tab? and while we're at it, could you add roles that you have instruments for?

Posted in General / The Hello-Thread: Please Allow Me To Introduce Myself 👋


Hi. Name's Grady. You can call me that.

My instrument journey starts at age 6. I was signed up for piano lessons. Quit at age 9. Learned French horn for middle school band class. Picked up trumpet because mellophones and trumpets have the same fingerings. Got a harmonica to only play Piano Man. Got a bass christams '24.

Music taste: can enjoy anything (except pop not in the 1980s), but prefer rock n roll. Any rock will do, except The Beatles and Black Flag (seriously how did that make it to 1001 albums?).

1001 albums project

album rating i seriously need to update this...
