Roland Juno-6 Repairs

Image
A while back at Music Go Round I saw something propped up in the corner behind the counter. It was a Roland Juno-6 in what looked to be good shape with just a broken ARP mode select switch and a key with a broken end. They just got it in and didn't want to fix it so they were selling it as it really cheap. Like really really cheap.

Image
As usual this list is super late. I actually started writing this in 2020, and just didn't get around to posting or editing it until the end of 2021  2022. Oops... Well i gave it a shot at least. I also did not do a breakdown of each album since i just want to get this published; In short Actors continues to be amazing, and Trent can do no wrong when working with other musicians.  For 2021 - The pandemic continued, but I did manage to get out a bit more this year and there were a few concerts that I even made it out too as well. Here is a quick list, and Ill try to have the 2022 list out "soon."  Top albums of the year, in my opinion for 2021: Actors - Acts of Worship Halsey - If I Can't Have Love I Want Power Devin Townsend - The Puzzle / Snuggles Pertubator - Lustful Sacraments Wingtips - Cutting Room Floor Cutting Room Floor by WINGTIPS Chvrches - Screen Violence Kat Von D - Love Made Me Do It Fortitude - Gojira
