Maybe the ability to keep the dream alive derives from some deep down craziness.brentsgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018812375175938805.post-72766826445713392212011-01-13T22:51:56.596-08:002011-01-13T22:51:56.596-08:00I'd go for DDP or DOJ - two games I have never...I'd go for DDP or DOJ - two games I have never gotten sick of Cave-pcb wise. Decently cheap too. PCB's can get expensive, but if you don't mind flipping them after a time, it's easy to keep good stuff rolling in.<br /><br />I have recorded a few clips and need to edit them down and notate them, but I will be posting something up soon - possibly on the weekend. <br /><br />I think shmup players tend to be a bit OCD and that definitely means discerning. Good stuff is always expensive too, so it can get crazy. It's funny to think I dropped almost 10G on my musical stuff this year alone - but most of that was selling off old stuff and flipping the money over to gear. Just like I do with pcb's!drboomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15730399981808728658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018812375175938805.post-17450243129450371932011-01-13T18:25:43.172-08:002011-01-13T18:25:43.172-08:00No that would be awesome.

Make a clip with the different type of tones that thing puts out and throw it up on YouTube.<br /><br />I have noticed that in the arcade community the most hardcore collectors either have another expensive hobby, or cash in on JAMMA stuff and switch to another expensive hobby.<br /><br />I just got my first cab (New Astro City) and have already picked up two PCBs (Alpha 3 and SFIII:3), and I can't stop trolling the sales threads for more. Hopefully I'll be able to pick up at least one Cave board this year, finances permitting.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05717773609656741386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018812375175938805.post-16345682134880217362011-01-10T06:30:29.730-08:002011-01-10T06:30:29.730-08:00I absolutely agree about being discerning.

I am crazily so, with sneakers, records, musical instruments, cigars, lighters, bikes, cars, clothing, beer, scotch, coffee, movies, arcades, Linda's hair (she's not allowed to cut it above the shoulders - its just too beautiful!) and just about everything else. I hate stuff that sucks.<br /><br />I can record a clip for sure - I've been meaning to do it for sometime, as long as you don't mind a mediocre guitarist playing Sabbath/Sleep/Budgie/Zepplin covers.drboomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15730399981808728658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018812375175938805.post-10315724421695339572011-01-09T14:00:13.384-08:002011-01-09T14:00:13.384-08:00Hey DrBoom,

I've always been curious to hear one of those things, particularly a good fat clean tone. You certainly got that thing for a crazy price.<br /><br />I've been lurking your blog for a couple years now and one thing I noticed is we seem to like a lot of the same things. I've noticed that hardcore arcade gamers tend to be really choosy about the stuff they buy or become enthusiastic about in general. Seems like we both live life in a very discerning fashion.<br /><br />Cheers to another year man.<br />-paulAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05717773609656741386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018812375175938805.post-48961408116031070762011-01-09T07:26:45.148-08:002011-01-09T07:26:45.148-08:00It has been a great year, croikle! Thanks for the ...It has been a great year, croikle! Thanks for the congrats.<br /><br />Glad you like Sleep - they are excellent! I'm a huge fan - which is probably quite obvious. I have heard of Trouble and may have even played with them back in the day - that's about the time I was pretty actively playing and touring. Can't remember anything about them though - but I do like Sabbath! <br /><br />I'm really hoping to put together a new band(s) this year and get something going on. I miss playing live and I'm stoked to just play guitar, rather than play rhythm and sing like I Have for a lot of my other bands.drboomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15730399981808728658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018812375175938805.post-58195420997205593632011-01-08T15:53:49.262-08:002011-01-08T15:53:49.262-08:00Another great write-up for 2010!

They were based in Chicago, too. Great Sabbath sounds!<br /><br />My wife and I shared a tissue at the last post! Kidding!
