These six women should have signature guitars

February 12, 2024 21:06 - 30 minutes - 27.7 MB

With the recent announcement of the limited edition boygenius signature Broadkaster Jr. by Gretsch—which sold out, by the way—another entry has been added to the relatively short list of women, or, in this case, groups of women with signature guitars.  It’s a list that has expanded in the past decade or so, and it includes Yvette Young, Chrissie Hynde, Emily Wolf, H.E.R., Susanna Hoffs, Lari Basilio, Bonnie Raitt, Nancy Wilson, and Courtney Love. And, of course, what is perhaps the most un...

The rise and fall of Ryan Adams

January 10, 2024 03:29 - 35 minutes - 32.1 MB

I’ve said before that one of my biggest musical influences, period, is Ryan Adams. I suppose I should probably say “was” Ryan Adams. From the time I was 12 until probably 2015 or so, I was an enormous supporter of his music. I had all the albums, some of the books, a lot of the 45s, I even went to his art show at the Morrison Hotel Gallery in 2009. I still have a print of one of this paintings hanging on my wall. But when the New York Times published a Me Too article about him in 2019, I...

I'm still here

December 19, 2023 04:37 - 28 minutes - 25.6 MB

EHX has already deleted this PR nightmare of a YouTube video

November 21, 2023 04:39 - 36 minutes - 33 MB

If you follow legendary pedal company EHX on YouTube, you might have refreshed your feed and even gotten a push notification to check out their new video.  It’s titled “The Socialist Gangsters,” so already a pretty weird start. It's an original song by Mike Matthews about the time he busted a union in NYC, and event he clearly blames on the brand's early-'80s hardships. So, what's the story about all that? Is his take true? Was this the worst possible time to come out so strongly anti-uni...

Spotify is going to stop paying a lot of artists

November 14, 2023 05:54 - 23 minutes - 32.8 MB

Last week, Spotify made the news in a bad way.  Long story short, they announced changes to their payout structure that will most certainly demonetize an enormous amount of artists. It’s a move competition law experts are calling “discriminatory and exploitative.” And it’s both a huge deal, and not really a big deal at all.  Support Get Offset by...

Can we stop pretending women care about guitar?

November 07, 2023 04:22 - 34 minutes - 31.2 MB

“Can we just stop pretending women care about guitars?” “I get the same vibe from some women pretending to be into Warhammer, that you are larping, that you like pretending to be into guitars, not because of what the guitars actually mean to you, but rather how it means you are perceived in the sub-culture, as the cool guitar gurl, guitars become a means for attention.” Those are two separate comments I got on a video this week.  I want to share these not because “Woe is me, people are me...

Live Nation fooled a lot of you last week

October 03, 2023 02:38 - 26 minutes - 24.5 MB

What in the world is Live Nation up to? The live event behemoth recently made a colossal announcement—that they are ending the decades-long practice of taking a cut of artist merch sales at their venues, rolling out over the next few months.  And though this announcement has been widely cheered and celebrated, it’s not the concession everyone thinks that it is. And yes, lots of bands will still see 10-30% of their merch sales go to Live Nation venues when they perform there. https://www...

5 Fundamental Riffs (featuring Andy "The Guitar Geek" Ferris)

September 07, 2023 19:03 - 25 minutes - 23.5 MB

We all have those "riffs" that are central to who we are as guitarists. Maybe it was one of the first things we learned to play—ever! Or maybe it was what brought us back into the instrument later in life. It could even be something that got your band some serious attention. When Andy Ferris asked me to film an episode where we go over some of my fundamental riffs (with the Walrus Audio Fundamental Series pedals) I couldn't say no.

I can't believe I didn't know that the recipients of one of the most controversial GRAMMY wins ever played their instruments, and that's embarrassing for me.
