Weirdest Gear Deal Ever: the Tale of How Severe G.A.S Led a Man to Madness

My weirdest jam session: found a drummer through a local musician networking site. I bring my stuff, and he helps me shlep my 4x12 down to the basement jam room. Nice enough guy so far. Jam some Megadeth, Metallica and random improvised riffs. He's pretty good! After awhile we had to take a break because his ex was bringing his young daughter over as per their custody agreement. So he excused himself to go upstairs. Then I noticed around the corner from his drums was another room without a door. I casually stroll by and it's ceiling to floor plastered with pages from porn rags. No, not classy Playboy centerfold content but hardcore shit that could only come from a seedy publication called "Shaved Lesbian Bitches" or something. WTF? Having that shit out in the open (sort of) with a child in the house? This was a long time ago and maybe I should have called children's protective services or something? Weird vibes after that and I never contacted him again.

Weird vibes? Bro, thats sexual deviancy and depravity of the highest order. I don’t even want to imagine what he was doing in there. But the darkest part is announcing his child is coming and then you see that. Whoa!!!
 
There is only one thing you need to know. Daniel Travis, Brian White. These aren't men you want to fool with. There are a lot of people out there, that like to have fun. I don't have time for fun. If you want to test us, we are ready to respond. I didn't want to do this but it looks like, this is what we are doing.

Dude, I wanted to tell him no, but all I could muster up was a, you break, you buy.” He was so unsettling and menacing!! Have any of you guys been around an unhinged meth head? It was that dark kind of vibe. His movements were very fast and frantic. His words were almost unintelligible. It was like I had to learn and decipher a new language on the spot.
 
Careful He could be here somewhere lol!

Classic story lol
 
I’ve seen folks like this in my clinic.. oddly every now and then a patient (not mine) hurts/kills their caretaker for whatever reason and we hear about it in the news.. about 4 times in my 1/4 century medical career I’ve seen people like this. I don’t take them lightly. I have carried in my office for over a decade for this reason. There are crazy people out there who are already “triggered” so to speak… so it doesn’t take much to push them over the edge. Time is no factor for them- angry for life. Be careful my friend. These people all have the same weird traits. Something ain’t right? Prepare to defend yourself.
 
a homeless guy offered to sell me his harmonica yesterday after blowing it so loud in my face i could smell his breath. i currently work in an area of downtown honolulu that is ground zero for mentally ill homeless people. in fact i keep a photo album on my phone titled mental illness to chronicle how bad it is, with naked people crapping and peeing on the sidewalk, old women smoking crack in broad daylight while covered in soot from sitting next to the busy traffic intersections. one guy last month set an old man on fire while walking behind him. another guy killed a security guard with a hydroflask recently. it’s literally insane how bad it’s getting. Aloha!

That area, San Fran, LA have exact same issues. When I lived down the street from Mann’s Chinese theater in Hollywood it was like 3rd world meets America. And the Freaks absolutely come out at night. Yes, it’s mental illness and if I were to guess; the OP’s interaction with that amp selling guy; he was full schizophrenic at the time. Now something is telling him to get the amp away… the voices. Not kidding.

He very well could have been schizophrenic. He was operating on an entirely different plane of existence.
 
A few years back i was browsing a local website for used instruments and such.

Found an amp i liked and contacted the dude.

We agreed on a price and i asked for his address so i could pick it up.

After a while he says, eehhh you know, you can buy it for 1500 (what we agreed), but only if i can buy it back from you next week, and i'll give you 1600 for it :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

He propably needed some quick cash and did not want to get rid of the amp, but seriously, i'm not a pawn shop lol
