  • I have a standing every 2 years on each of my 2 10k gallon tanks. Each year, one gets pumped. That means they both get checked regularly.

    Even if it costs $200 for the appointment, it’s worth it to know. They can also likely tell you the size and what they suggest for your situation. They should be able to schedule it for you so you don’t need to remember.

And seem to have come through all the head banging without long-term repercussions.

    I got into it through friends who played and were in bands. I was stunning them and other bands in the early 80s. I actually recall hearing the guitar from La Grange at about 11 or 12 and realing that a guitar could move me.

    I can’t play. I ran sound and did pyrotechnics for my friends. I love it loud. I still do.

    In college, in Toledo, OH, there was a great band scene in the late 80s and early 90s. I saw bands like Axel Brice, Exciter, Accept, and more on the bars like Kip’s and Roxanne’s. There were great shows at the Sports Arena. I fell asleep at a Judas Priest/ Megadeath show after a full day of student teaching.

    Now, I listen to Halestorm and a lot of the guitar players- Satriani, Vai, Malmsteen, Orianthi.
