I started a Pokemon Tournament. I'm having an alright day.

[psychedelicrelic]

Got this today. Worst/best album ever. Bought it for sampling but found so many vocal only tracks that are perfect for scratches. Also used my boss ps-5 with my turntable with awesome results. Instant demonic voice from a light voice talking to children about falling asleep and dreams.

The next one will be better

...

Surf Rider Deluxe arrived.
So now I have 2 spring reverb emus on my board, along with the Spring Chicken.
The former has a much more lush, drippy sound like an actual tube driven spring...but the latter can go into oscillation at will...and the swells and sustaining harmonic feedback it produces both pre and post dirt is

[DarkAxel]

well it's weird - i used to be okay but the last two shows i've been so damn nervous pre-gig... last time, my playing wasn't very good either...

this time, i was dead nervous, but then i didn't fuck up anything... i was even happy with the improvisations and jams (i improvise about 90% of my solos)

plus i played through a borrowed Engl Thunder's clean channel and when i dug in with my right hand, the Jazzmaster character was so damn THERE

i need a new amp

[skullservant]

I actually gave my Obstructures an awesome setup the other night because I dropped it down to B, and now the harmonics are EVEN CRAZIER.

Everyone should see the pixies.

Fuck yeah.

Got home from a really intense assessment centre, and I'm looking forward to a relaxing weekend SO FUCKING MUCH, even more so when I found out my particle arrived! And it avoided customs! Go prymaxe go.

[D.o.S.]

Reading this thread trying to get myself in a better headspace and I got brought back to the first time I heard the Pixies--bought Doolittle and Come On Pilgrim 'cause my older cousin said I'd love 'em.


Dude was so right.

Listening to music that you love but haven't listened to in a while is basically my favorite pick me up in the world.

Also, people suck, but with good music they're basically ok.

If Billy would've pulled a Kurt after Gish I would think he was the coolest guy ever instead of just a bald douchey weirdo...
