OSM: What are you on?
Grampa Lee: A laptop computer and strong coffee.
OSM: Try switching to decaf, Gramps!
Abdul Ekyuu: Yo, Old Guy. When Ken hired you, did you get a computer?
Do you have a latest technology clause?
OSM: I have an old unfashionable computer.
Abdul Ekyuu: Timothy McVeigh will publicly die soon. Would you do
the audio for the broadcast?
OSM: They're putting him to SLEEP!!! What audio? You been drinkin'
Grampa's "special" coffee?
Chence W: What made you so grumpy? Did you have a bad gig that turned
you this way?
OSM: Many, over the years.
Chence W: Well, tell us about some of those bad gigs, and how you
deal with those kinds of people.
OSM: People who will not respect your signal chain, those who want
to overdrive your amps and speakers. People who do not respect your
timeline. I have been known to start flinging drums off a riser
if I think the band is too slow with their set change.
AlanH: If you were faced with the choice of engineering a talented
band on crappy gear or a crappy band on quality gear, which would
you do? ('Both' isn't an option, nor is hiring someone for half
the rate to mix one of them for you.)
OSM: The talented band, always.
Monsieur Frank: What is the most pathetic situation you lived through?
OSM: Hosting a band that seemed truly evil, and wondering "Why
am I here?" I got into this because I loved music.
AnnaK: OSM, do you hate all women or just audio women?
