Don't forget to subscribe to the podcast and share us on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ !Episode 81 - This week Art and Eric dive into their songwriting processes and how they write lyrics, much to the delight of each other but probably no one else.  The news this week is particularly insightful as we discuss Vince Neil head-slamming a woman for asking for Nicholas Cage's autograph instead of his; you can't ask for a better news story than this.  Next we decide to wade into politics and discuss Dr. Dre getting a citizen arrest and then searched by the police for a gun, the plot twist being that no gun was present even though the citizen claims he was held up by Dr Dre at gunpoint.  The Art of trolling celebrities at it's worst or finest, we can't decide.In the production segment Art walks us through the 4 microphones one would need to start a new studio.  We discuss multiple mics at the table and eventually boil down to the 4 mics that Art recommends.

Don't forget to subscribe to the podcast and share us on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ !Episode 80 - This week Art and Eric have plenty of music topics to discuss on the podcast and decide to cover non of them.  This weeks recommendation for a service is practiceguitarnow.com, Eric found it very helpful.  In the news Eric decided to grace us with the blessings of Kanye West quotes, these quotes will change your life for the better.  In the second part of the news Eric is beyond ecstatic that Led Zeppelin has been found not to have lifted another song to create Stairway to Heaven.  The hallowed song can now rest in peace as it's own piece of work.In the songwriting section we discuss the song Stressed Out by 21 Pilots. Overall the judgment is that this song has fantastic lyrics, but does not follow the block style of the each verse building in the previous to enhance the story or picture the songs is trying create.  Does that lessen the impact of the song overall?...that is for you to decide.

Microsoft ESP Are you aware the Microsoft is selling an advanced flightsimulator called Microsoft ESP? See: http://www.microsoft.com/esp/default.htm There is also an article about it in the Jan/Feb 2009 issue of "Airliners." I will scan and forward you this article for your review. Perhaps this is something that FS Break listeners may be interested in? All the best and keep up the great work! Russ Tillman   Thanks for the tip Russ - We did know about ESP, however ESP was also canned with ACES. From their website: Microsoft has ceased further development of Microsoft® ESP™, but ESP remains available to customers and partners.  Microsoft is currently exploring 3rd party licensing options for the future of ESP and will announce details at the appropriate time. Also, does anyone know how ESP was different from FSX other than the name change?
