It's that time of year again. Thanksgiving wouldn't be complete without the annual playing of Arlo Guthrie's Alice's Restaurant Massacre ... the entire song ... All 18+ minutes of it. If you want to join in the celebration, here's the link for the call: Nick Allegro is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Hey guys, I got an email saying it is from Spirit Music Group and a song of mine has been selected for a Netflix feature film. I first felt it was a scam however I submitted a brief questionaire which didn't ask any questions I felt could be used to scam me. Tonight I received a contract which looks legit however under one section titled "Administration Fee" it states "to secure and facilitate the guaranteed placement the artist agrees to pay a one-time, upfront, fully refundable administration fee". Is this a common practice? Unfortunately the Spirit Music Group website has no contact submission or I would ask them directly. Thanks in advance for any thoughts on this.

With everything now being TB or USB how are you all managing the connection for all of this equipment? I want to clean up and streamline my connections but not sure how I will go about it just yet. I have USB for 4 keyboards/sound module, for 8 hard drives, flash drives,, MPC, webcam, charging for my phone, ect. I have Thunderbolt for my UA Apollo, DAC, UA satellite, ect. Point is that I have so many connections that I have to wonder how are other people managing.

Hi guys, it's a simple question but until now I found no good solution. For editing I need both, but thatt's pinching, and therefore distracting. These headphones are non negotiable (fat, heavy and over-the-ears); I'd modify at least the glasses. Any experience, good idea, advice how to deal with it ... would be helpful. Thanks in advance! 🌼
