stoner/doom bassist thread part 2: suspicious smoke

Moving into a practice space with my new project today. I'm super stoked. It's gonna get ****ing loud tonight!

Also, we're looking for a drummer right now. One of our guitar players can seriously shred on any instrument. He has offered to play drums but we're afraid of missing out on his guitar playing. In your opinion what's easier to replace? Decent drums or killer guitar???
 
Well, crap. Got an email from our drummer this morning and he's moving back to Phoenix... Like tomorrow. His kid's been staying with his girl down there for a while and after a weekend with them he finally figured out that family is super important and is moving down there to be with them. I wish him all the best & it sucks, but we'll figure something out. Just bummed.

Oh man, that sucks.

I have always had a hard time finding drummers. Good guitar players aren't hard to find, you just have to weed through a few before you find one. Have your bud play drums for now until you find a guitarist or drummer he approves of.
 
What is it about this style that attracts 30-somethings. Is it because our idols are even older?

Been there/done that w/ punk & thrash. Grown up & not really "punk" anymore. Speed doesn't really do it for me anymore. Fun sometimes, but not all the time. Finally... New metal and all it's "core" genres are pretty much awful. A couple decent bands but most of it's pretty hard to listen to.
 
Played my guitarist's 8x10 yesterday at practice. I have been told I have no choice but to ditch my 2x15 and buy an 8x10. Unfortunately, I agree. I can use his cab for practice but I'd rather not gig with it (he needs it for his other band). Any of you guys selling one?
 
Can anyone in here give an opinion on the sansamp bddi vs VT pedal? I own a bddi I use for home recording. As I mentioned earlier I wanted to replace my backup amp. Not sure why I hadn't thought of this until now but I'm just going to buy a good power amp and run into that. I've seen those threads where people say AB comparison the VT almost goes toe to toe with an SVT. Wondering how different it is from the bddi.
