  1. Nice one. That has to be my favorite song by them

     

    Are you playing regular power chords in the chorus? Somehow I remember reading that on the album (but not live) they played chords like the C# with the 6th string included, so it's

     

    E

    B

    G--6

    D--6

    A--4

    E--4

     

    I'm just doing regular chords. It sounded fine to me.

  2. Not going to guess who because I've sold a ton to the UK. :p Love to know what they think.

     

    This is getting crazy. Tim's was #50. This means by my guesswork, I've sold about 1/8th of what the originals have... Sheeeit.

     

    He is from Ireland, so I imagine that'll narrow it down :LOL: I'll ask him to bring it up some week so I actually hear one. My attempt at making on never really worked. Although I plan on salvaging the parts and trying again sometime.

  3. I saw a Lexicon MX200 for sale nearby for €150 and I seriously tempted to get it seeing as my amp is rackmounted and I'll be buying a rack head for it soon. The only issue is finding a way to control it. I was thinking of a MIDI footswitch but I'm new to the whole world of that. I just want to be able to move through patches and I'd like a space efficient option. Anyone have any ideas?

    Dave tone?

     

    The only decent sound was towards the end with the way huge pedal by itself.

     

    That sounds like the tone a 12 year old uses the first time they hear QOTSA.

    They were so close too. The Green Rhino is a fucking great pedal for that sound and if they'd used the bridge pickup they'd be close. But with the fuzzes and the neck pickup they're closeer to Kyuss than QOTSA.

  5. What's your amp/cab setup now? I do wonder if something like that would have a negative effect on the amp too. Like if your amp's tranny doesn't have enough juice to handle the meatbox - it might end up blowing instead.

     

    A Hartke HA3500. It's a 350 watt hybrid amp, I'm pretty damn sure it has the power to take the Meatbox. It's the cab (Marshall DBS 7210 with currently unidentified speakers) that I'm worried about.

  6. Because I'm getting a DOD Meatbox, I'm trying to find the cheapest way of being able to run it full tilt (more as a factor of safety for actually useable settings). So far my options are wait until I'm playing with a full PA with decent sub woofers (unlikely), buying an Ampeg 8x10 or a cab with an 18" speaker.

     

    The things I do for subs :facepalm:

  7. I thought that might be it. What's to explain about the towel? It's to prevent the drinks from soaking into the cardboard!

     

    And I didn't see that speech, what happened?

     

    I don't know. Last time I saw them (which was the only time I've properly met them) Mike seemed to just want to get out of there. Not sure about the first time I saw them - I was out of there before the band was, as I didn't want anyone taking that drum stick that everyone was fighting over!

     

    Ben was really nice though. Managed to get a picture and speak to him for a good five minutes.

     

    I know Dave had a similar experience (although he got a picture with both of them)

     

    Yeah, Mike came out of the venue like someone who just found out they need a filling. He took 2 or 3 photos (Me being one of them :D) and then went onto the tour bus.

    They clearly weren't in a rush since Ben stayed out with fans for over an hour. Absolutely lovely guy!
