    What do ya'll know about the SUNN 2000S?

    Well this just followed me home from a gig. It sounds every bit as nice as my Fender studio. I'm going to give it a once over and see what the gizzards look like before I commit to the purchase and sleep on the couch for a week.. Maybe two. But it's like camping so it's cool!

    How do you know when it's time?

    Sounds good to me as well. This is a fair and balanced approach, and doesn't seem like a knee-jerk reaction. He may see the writing on the wall himself and bow out gracefully. I also agree that rehearsal is not the place to learn material. It's frustrating and counterproductive to the band...

    Band Drama

    I'd say 1&2 were not reversed. The bar needs as much notice as possible if you're looking to re schedule. Waiting for a response from all members might take longer than a bar might need to sort their schedule. Additionally, if someone like Guitarist A wanted to be a d-bag then they could just...

    Albums you recently bought

    Bought The Pack A.D. - Do Not Engage on vinyl from them at a concert a week or so ago. Bought Death From Above 1979- - You're a Woman, I'm a Machine from itunes a couple days ago. Yeah, that should have happened a long time ago...

    Gene Simmons says rock isn't just dead, 'it was murdered' by file sharing

    The recording industry is just like any other corporate entity. It needs to make money - the end. If country is what floats the boat, country it is. If suddenly everyone loved Gregorian Chants you bet your a$$ it would be churned out ad nauseum and shoved down our throats in heavy rotation...

    Peavey T-40 find. Will help if needed

    Found this on my local Kijiji. If anyone is looking for a T-40 seems like good deal. I don't need it as I already have one. Link Removed I'll lend a hand with viewing & shipping details if needed.

    Do you play in multiple bands?

    I'll play in 6 bands if it means I get the chance to learn and get better. It's mostly cover bands for me, the originals bands where I am are mostly Country / folk stuff which isn't my speed. If a good punk or new rock (whatever that means nowadays) band gave me a shot I'd be all over it like a...

    lost a room over stupid stuff (rant)

    With all due respect Joe, There is no winning with either of them on this. I have dated these types of women in the past and they are hands down, bat-S#*% whack job crazy. She likely has him by the proverbial man parts and likes it that way. Butch, looks like you've managed to get things...

    What does the future look like for weekend warriors?

    It's not a problem in the last two cities I lived in. Kingston, ON (and surrounding area) has several bars you can play at with varying levels of difficulty. Some you can book by pretty much having a pulse. Some you better be on your 'A' game or they won't even give you a business card...

    why so many High end amps for sale???

    I wasn't taking up the cause, just waiting to see if someone would. I don't usually share my popcorn anyway, the drool turns people off.

    My singer and his Mac book mic

    All music sounds like garbage on Macbook speakers. Fortunately, most people nowadays have some kind of headphone setup they listen to their music through. See what it sounds like through a decent set of headphones (not earbuds, they're only a step up from the Macbook) and judge from there...

    rout/drill before or after finishing?

    I side with hdracer on this. My only caveat would be using painter's tape over the top if you really want to do it after. The finish has to be *completely* cured before you do it though. You get the added bonus of penciling in the outline to follow as you go. I'd still do all your routing...

    why so many High end amps for sale???

    Uh oh, the 'Pro Gear' statement.. Bring out the popcorn Memes I resent that remark.. I haven't accidentally wet myself in years. Okay, maybe that one time when I was playing with an SVT-CL and a fretless.. Okay scratch that, go back to your popcorn.. This was my out loud laugh moment...

    Do you own Nirvana - Nevermind

    This was the record that changed my view in music. All my teen years were spent listening to Van Halen, Judas Priest, Metallica, Anthrax, Guns n Roses. By 1991 I was bored of hair metal, but there was nothing else out there. I distinctly remember where I was when I heard Smells Like Teen...
