Like this? :D


AWESOME!
 
What kind of looper are you looking for?

In my experience the Akai e2 headrush is about as good as it gets...

I have the Digitech Jamman Stereo, really nice unit, I need to learn how to use it to send stuff back to the computer to keep my recordings. I know I can add a memory card to it too. It"s one of those things that has so many functions, it will take me a while to use all of the functions, but it is guick and easy slap down riffs and rythyms.
 
I was in over 100 fistfights at work over the course of several jobs... but I was a bouncer :P

I got a classic bouncer story. I was at this club I guess you would call a place with local bands. And I guy I went to high school with was there, a tough son of gun. Well this fight breaks out back and to the left of us, not that close but close enough, so they had these like huge bouncers, more fat than muscle but still big guys. Well the dipshVts get so worked up over the fight going on the take their big ass running over to the fight, but they didn't care who they knocked over or hurt to make it to the fight, male female whatever, well my back was to the guy running, my buddy grabs me by the arm says don't worry just don't want you getting hit, and I am no lightweight by any means and my buddy moved me like a feather, well here the behomoth was getting ready to pummel me out of his way, so my buddy lost it, kicks the living **** out of the bull on parade idiot bouncer, just flat out tunes him up proper, and is screaming who cares if there is a fight take your time and don't be hurting people not involved in the fight, so the other bouncer comes up see the fight on the other side, then sees the bouncer by us trying to stand up, and decides the other fight is easier, then other guy makes it to his feet, and goes to break up the other fight but much more calmly walks over now. So I said well looks like we are gonna fight some bouncers are on way out of here, you had my back I got yours, he said I doubt it I put the fear of God in that boy and sure enough he was right, I thought for sure they were going to come back at us or get the cops after us, no those bouncers kept a wide birth the rest of the night, what a classic memory that was. I am not bashing bouncers just the careless idiots ones that had a The San Souci Lounge in beautiful Hanover PA, lol. It was awesome seeing a large giant of a man, getting the crap kicked out of him by an average sized man though muscular and in shape, but just a true scrapper. Priceless. I also had a friend who was a bouncer at a gay bar, he wasn't tough at all but it was one place he could feel tough ha ha.
 
I'm mostly looking for a looper to mess around with at home. I've never done too much live looping, so that's not too important.

I just really like having one around the house to mess around with ideas. I'll probably end up grabbing an old Boss or Digitech since they have the built in drum patterns that are fun to play a long to from time to time.

Like I said, mostly for practice purposes.

I couldn't imagine using one of them live, yikes. Maybe a single guitarist band, or some acoustic person one man band. But to control that thing live, yikes. I have seen Keller Williams live, and man that guys since of timing most be amazing, controlling all that stuff.
Non Genre Music Warning, fun song though
