Yeah, well, i wasnt a very popular guy, and i had to work saturday :p I have a style thats a little to close to Geddy and Entwistle's, and it didnt go very well down with the teachers or the guitarists :p

Your rig became to big? i see you have it out for sale.. had the same problem last year, i couldnt use mine above 1 and they had to turn me off the PA :p

Hehe..

Well its like 2 100 lbs cabinets.. So its a bit to much to lug around all the time :D

Think they have given up running the bass through the PA :p
Went only through my rig last night, and it sounded great! Nice to have a huge bassmonitor behind you aswell :D

Indeed it is, i prefered the times where i was going alone with my amp, becouse i heard myself alot better, but i ended up using the other guys behringer cause it was friendlier against the PA.
Have you heard some stuff that was recorded last year? your song is great BTW.

You got MSN or something?
