Then you have a solid understanding in the difference between two guys barking into microphones and a third scratching on records all to a pre recorded track versus the same three guys walking out with nothing but the instruments they're gonna use to entertain you.

Personally, I see no difference. They are BOTH entertaining to me.

What about acapella singers? Are they not entertainers/musicians? They don't use any instruments.

If by “samples” on the Iron Maiden tracks you’re referencing SFX or historical dialogue, I have no issue with that.

Ok. Philosophically, what's the difference? One band who's good at playing instruments uses a vocal sample and another band who's good at vocals uses a musical sample? If both are integrating pre-existing sound into a new context, your distinction seems to rest more on cultural expectations than on any real difference in the act itself.

How do you create anything original using a sampler?

Really? Go listen to Paul's Botique and get back to me.

I'm tired and up way past my bedtime. To be continued.....

Oh and BTW: Iron Maiden also used samples in their music, ie: The prisoner....

And I hate to tell you, those are still instruments. Just because you don't LIKE it or have some other definition of "instrument" doesn't make you right.

For me, far and away, it's S.O.P.

Whenever I hear it, I know I'm going to have to jump through unnecessary hoops that are going to slow down efficiency going forward...

So you're proud about sweeping what is either the 2nd or 3rd worst team in the conference. Congrats. I guess.

re: Over Half of Young American Men Now Use Sports Betting Apps

I had a buddy who had an addictive personality. 20 years ago, was a compulsive gambler. He'd make the 2 hour run to Nevada 3 or 4 times a month. He would also day trade the market. He got hooked on booze and was an alcoholic for a long time. As far as I know he kicked alcohol 3-4 years ago.

I truly scares me to think what would have happened to him with this kind of access in his pocket.

You're right. RZA doesn't play a single instrument. He plays about a dozen...

re: LA OMV Electric & Hybrid road usage fee

so its ok for you cause she literally drives nowhere.

Yes, because our state also has a clause that allows you to pay 1.25 cents per mile capped at the flat fee for EVs/hybrids/PHEV. If you drive less that 4k miles per year that is the way to go.
