I don't find it to be about the process much, it's just sooo much better.

Do you guys notice a difference in wine? Bourbon? Scotch? It's a bit like that.

I'm not really into poisons and am not a gun guy, so I wouldn't know. Just talking about coffees and imo there's not much difference, esp considering the extra effort involved.

Haha... unpopular opinions invite that though, right?

We kinda know or anticipate that clicking on the thread. I'm expecting some form of agreement or debate in this one. Interestingly, it gives me the opportunity to reaffirm my opinion or think about the counter points brought up and admit, maybe I was wrong on this or that.

I hate alternate tunings or gimmicks like 7 string guitars. Stop messing around and just be a normal musician! LOL.

No way man. I wouldn't do that... This version of this song is in Drop C. Helps when us old guys can't quite hit the high notes anymore.

The pods are 20% less work and cost in the vacinity of $1 a pod. My Breville pull costs about 20c a shot, 5 times cheaper. Insanity, i'll never understand it.

Compare to what though? 20% less work only compared to what I described, no way, it's just 5% of the work for pretty much the same result. ...and Nespresso's patent expired years ago, there are many selections nowadays. Anyway, I'm not into espresso to save $, but for the taste and best/efficient way to make it.

There isn't one in my closet, and there never will be! I can barely play 6!

Back to the topic at hand, Uli is at least on par with EVH... To my knowledge, Eddie never played an 8 string.

Ditto re 1st para!

Really, I never heard of the guy but if you say so. I only skimmed the video but he barely touches the extra strings and ofc it's too wide to do any meaningful chords. I dunno, man, I still believe it's a gimmick, our human hands are not big enough to handle so many strings.
