THUNDEROUS Timmy C tone from BBC Radio Five Live

Sign in to disble this ad
As you know over here in England we (The RATM campaign) beat the Simon Cowell karaoke no hoper show 'The X Factor' to win the prestigious Christmas Number 1 single of 2009, while the chart race was going on during that week, RATM decided to play a radio show (I think it was Zack's idea) and it ends in a hilarious way, they play Killing in the Name, radio guy asks them not to do it, they said they wouldnt but then once the refrain kicked in they belted out four or five F-Bombs, and it went out whilst parents were taking their kids to schools and there was huge panic etc, ahh what a Christmas.

Anyway, I couldnt help notice this lush and huge sound to Timmy C's playing check it out, damn him being so secretive! GAS alert, maybe the way the rooms mic'd up?

Awesome that RATM is even in the same room and playing together. Let's hope this means they'll consider a reunion. Also, if you search around you'll find a diagram of Timmy's gear in the early RATM days - it appears he's using the same setup for this little gig.
