typical T-bird config, hes gonna lower wind the pickups cause his stock ones i heard on oldcrows were too high output for my tastes. one wind is gonna be similar to a vintage T-bird, the neck is gonna be wound closer to the RD.
yeah when john was explaining lo-pans attitude coupled with whores acting like dummies on their FB page, i remembered that i didnt like any band either way, and 40-50 year old men acting like dicks on the internet is funny enough as is.
OK, so I gots a little neck dive from my SX shortscale I want to eliminate. Anyone out there have some budget suggestions for lighter weight tuners?
No, that post is on the Whores FB.
And thanks Toast, we work hard to make it work that way. Gotta stop playing gigs where we share a backline. I think the painstaking lengths we've gone to get a good 5 piece band mix goes out the window when we don't get to play with our own gear. It's nice to hear compliments like that from fellow musicians.

that was totally unprofessional of Whores to post on their FB page, it should have been discussed between the bands involved only. I would not play with them if they came through town.
My wife wouldn't let me play with Whores either.
They remind me of 90's Canadian legends KITTENS. I wonder if they've ever heard of them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StZdHjtWjTQ

I enjoyed seeing Lo-Pan enough to buy some of their swag but now I want to burn it, weak. Talk about being a legend in your own mind.
I'm guessing the Whores' tour manager also probably runs their FB. They put on a good show and were nice enough guys, but weren't all that friendly.
I guess I just don't understand how you could think being bitter towards any local scene will benefit you as a band. I've played with bands who I've met once and the next time I see them, they can't stop buying me drinks or giving me hugs. I'd bend over backwards for them and let them crash at my house if needed. In an underground/DIY music scene, that seems to be how you get stuff done and meet new people. I can't imagine you stand to gain anything by being miserable. And if you are, keep it to yourself, instead of publicly airing it on facebook lol.

Outside of anything to do with music, being passive aggressive like that is one of my biggest pet peeves. Saying yes to a question, then complaining later or to someone else. Saying yes to plans then not showing up, because they never wanted to (or couldn't) and can't just say no. Usually it comes back later as "well, I didn't want to be rude/hurt your feelings", but by doing that they end up doing something far more rude later. I've made a habit out of adding "no is an acceptable answer" to the end of some questions now, because of things like that.
i used to talk to christian from time to time (their lead singer), he was always a humble nice dude so they may have been having a bad day. or they got a small write up in SPIN and now they think theyre the beatles, who knows.
Like I said, the dudes in the band seemed nice enough. Very likely it could have been their tour manager controlling their FB.
Yeah I saw some article by them in some metal rag at B&N which seemed kind of cuntlikish a few weeks back. Seems they are the, you aren't metal if you don't bitch enough about other bands, from the article and what has been mentioned on here, so hearing they acted asshat is not too shocking.
Plays a tele, wears a black button down, fuzzy riffs. KITTENS are Canadian WHORES.
VEGA practice with guitarists new triad of amps tonight, I already got a toner boner.
Hello guys!
Peavey mark IV showed up in the local classifieds for a good price , only downside is that it's located to an island and can't really try it before buying. Really thinking to get it as "vintage" gear is not that common in hear (haven't seen any Sunn in Greece's main music classifieds site for over a year... ) . Any opinions?
