Stoner/Doom Bassists #64 - sensitive artsy emo chicks

All set except for loading some speakers in it.

there's a lot of demon on one page already.

my 'tone' board is nearly complete. i'm so very excited. just need some more velcro and for my volume pedal to arrive.

pedal chain:

Korg Pitchblack -> VFE Mini Mu -> Bluebeard -> DOD 250 -> El Oso -> custom volume pedal

i'm vaguely tempted to put one of those stage-light things on my board like laz's guitarist.. can't find an easy source in new zealand though. i kind of really need something to illuminate my fretboard on dark stages.. oh and it looks totally badass.
 
I went to Intronaut last night. This is the 2nd time I saw them (1st time they opened for Mastodon and Kylessa). My only complaint is that they didn't play for three hours. They are just so nasty.

I'm not chasing Joe Lester's tone, but it works so well with that band. I really dig that he could Jaco-it-up if he wanted to, but he doesn't. So tasty, so nasty.

Did they end the set with the guitarists walking off stage leaving Joe and Danny to jam for a couple of minutes? That's how they ended in Orlando and it made me giddy haha.

Yes they did, which was awesome, but it was also he same way they ended when I saw them w/ Mastodon in 2009. I was psyched they played The Literal Black Cloud. That track is so brutal, but it's a locrian riff, which is a major key w/ a sharp 4. I picked up on a strong Alice in Chains vocal influence hearing the Habitual Levitations stuff live. That's all I have to say about non-stoner bands today.
