Recently, my wife and I were driving in our car and listening to a local rock radio station. "Black Hole Sun" started playing on the radio... "Leslie," she said.

Far from my wife, but my daughter turned to me the other day while I was watching an NBA basketball game and said, "Dad, why do you like sweaty guys and balls?"

I just tried not to laugh out loud and have to explain why I was laughing!

EPIC wife... !

Mine isn't all that in to music. But she's have something special. Everytime there is a new song coming out she can tell 9 out of 10 if
1. be a big hit or 2. beeing a flop and going down the drain in less then a week.
So when a new "hit" song comes up: She says "Ka-ching, jackpot song"
When a flop song comes up: "Trashcan..."

But with audio gear its just awesome. I explain "I need this or that". She "Makes it the sound better and make it work more easier so you can make more money?" I say "Yes", she says "Why didn't you get it in the first place then?, buy it"

My girlfriend comes bouncing into my flat with a big grin '' I swear i just heard a song in the car with Minimoog bass on it, cor......all fat and punchy''.

On another day on arriving, ''I think i just heard a bassline using a Musicman stingray, on a song in the car just now....Ooooh the sound of it really gets you going''.

GOOD GIRL!

Guess I am the lucky one, my wife does not shop with me or care about how much money is spent, same goes for her at the makeup store.

To be honest, I am far less enamored of the Gearslutty things my wife has said than I am of the slutty things my wife has said...

But on the morning of our seventh anniversary she handed me a gift-wrapped package that turned out to be a 5-string set of LaBella 760N extra-long tapewounds...with a note which read "Let's go buy you a bass to put these on."

My wife does sound for me sometimes, and I had broken a high e string before a show and didn't have peg winder, and she yells out loud from way back at the soundboard:

"Just let me turn you off, come help you get wound up, and then I'll run back and turn you on again"

All the guys were cracking up

Just recently purchased a pair of Dynaudio BM6A's from our very own James Lugo. As I am explaining to my wife she suggests - "You should get a sub too!"

Day after Christmas, we are at the store for the boxing day sales (like black Friday sales), and my wife points out a 40" LED TV and says "Babe, you should get that for your studio so you can play XBOX in your studio when you aren't doing music"

"If you rack those channel strips you got off your friend, do you still need to get a Lunchbox, or are those pre amps OK?"

I'm sure there is more, but they are just a few that come to mind?

.....and no, she doesn't have any sisters......

Because it's never suspicious when she is trying to keep you more occupied with things that don't involve her.

I just feel like laughing inside when I start to try to explain WHY I need a new peace of gear.
My wife asks me why I want that...I start talking about analog...compression and she doesnt understand (of course). When I realize I start making noises with my mouth to emulate some kind of compression or sound that I want to achieve. She gets it, but kills it with the same sentence ever:
"dont u have that already??"

Despite that, she is my way of keeping my feet back on the ground. Sometimes I feel like Im lying to myself when I just want to buy something for pure addiction and not for need!

I love her

"Sure, we can use some of the wedding gift money to buy a nice power amp and get your vintage speakers restored."
"I thought you'd like a nice pair of headphones for your birthday." (I ended up with some schweet Sennheisers.)
She also went in with some other family members and got me a nice Denon turntable for Christmas. (She got a nice vintage Italian-made accordion!)
Of course, the end-all would probably be a toss-up between:
"I wish I made more money so you could stay home all day and write music."
(Mind you, my "day job" involves working on other people's music in a studio.)

or, perhaps even better yet:
"I wish I made more money so you could buy an Ondes Martenot."

The most non-sluttiest thing my gf says (since my band and I are mixing our album now) is "this recording is more important than me"

My typical response is "I'll be up in 10 minutes" which all of us know means 4 hours.

When mentioning I was looking into getting a new mic my wife advised, "Just make sure you don't buy any of that Chinese made shit - Germany or Austria is fine."

"Ah, just keep all of them."

Response to my anxiety while demo-ing 3 different compressors at the same time.

Just got back from dinner with one...

I have been thinking about getting a Virus T12 keyboard for a bit. I have talked to her on and off about it over the past couple of months. Our conversation:

My fiance': "Did you buy that keyboard yet?"

Me: "No"

Her: "Why not...you want it. You should get it."

Me:"If I get it I need to have a bunch of time set aside to really learn how to use it so it is not just a nice looking piece of hardware."

Her: "Don't worry about me. I will get out of your way so you have time. You should get it. You really want it."


I think I am getting it tomorrow ;-) She is the best.

Ken
