I have been holding my tongue because I absolutely hate discussions based
on gender (seeing as for 20+ years of performing I have had to address it
SO many times).
Suffice it to say that I, a female (also a guitar player, pinball freak,
painter and any other thing that describes me IN PART) am on the list as I
have been for a while. I have gotten much, much, much out of the list, but
by nature I am not talking at the party, but lurking. This has nothing to
do with being female. Don't worry boys, until you get stuck on the stuff
like masturbatory music being guy-centric (not, not true---a) girls DO IT
TOO), the list is always informative and entertaining. Hell, seeing some
of you boys get all het up about this is sorta entertaining as well! And
as I get older and poorer and retreat to my home studio more and more, I
find myself being able to talk tech with the best of ya'll. It has nothing
to do with being a girl...I have been shooting it with the boys at the
guitar store since I was barely able to play.
Yanked out of lurk mode (amusedly),
