Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

Creepy as ****. Is this designed to make bushwalkers completely piss their pants and question reality?

Kinda yea, looks like a hobo used to live there many moons ago.

My yards like mostly flat open grass lawn, the back is a creepy expanse of woods and abandoned stuff. I'm converting it I to just a creepy little walking place/place to take psychedelics with people haha. Or film a music video!

All I know is the people who move in next will be more curious than me as I slowly reuse the crap found to make it more look like something occult occured there.

I've cleared maybe 10% enough to walk and add stuff. There so much more to go.

My guitar player told me this story of how his dog would go through the fence and drag all kinds of dead poopie back. Decomposing deer leg, several animal skulls, a coyote spinal chord attached to hips, etc. So he started placing poopie around this stump. Drew a pentagram on the stump with spray paint. A month goes by and he's jamming his beta lead on 11 in the basement of his old place. Meanwhile, neighbors get shot and killed in cold blood. He emerges sweaty as hell after a three hour jam session to cops searching all over his backyard, as the fence had been blown down from a windstorm. Cops are totally looking at his makeshift satan shrine and as he starts peeping through the blinds, cop looks at window, blinds go Foooosh! As he backs away letting his fingers go from their duty as blind props. Long story short, the case was unsolved as of him moving, but he was scared shitless at the time and his innocent satanist fun, became an "oh poopie" moment. Lol I was laughing my ass off and your backyard reminded me of that story.
 
Bushwalker?
I believe they call those trespassers in Texas.
Years ago I used to live in an area close to the creek. So close that the only thing separating my backyard and the creek behind it was an old poopy colorbond fence. One night we copped a wild storm which caused the creek to flood and creep into my yard. The winds were so strong that the colorbond fence got torn down. The next morning I walked outside to assess the damage and notice there's a dingy tent set up in the corner of the yard, just where the flooding stopped, with fragments of my colorbond fence placed around it. Some homeless dude braved the rain and used my beat up fence to set up camp in my yard. Didn't have the heart to kick him out so I gave him some food, chucked some supplies his way and politely asked him to be on his way.

Oh lol Jesus was thrown in a church dumpster across the street just an hour ago. I set his eyes on fire and stashed him. So he doesn't really come from the woods, just across the street.

Strange that a church would chuck out a Jesus portrait but its a welcome touch for your Creep Cave. Wait til it starts getting weather worn...oh man...that's slasher flick material right there.

Those weird hanging stick things! I can make some.


I loved the first season of this show. Matthew Mcconaughey is a ****ing beast. Pretty excited to see what else they do with the series. I love your creepy hanging things and blind Jesus. I would definitely indulge in hallucinogens with you in that forest. As per the previous discussion about excessive weed and corn fields; when I was actually using different substances on a regular basis (5-6 years ago) I used to love taking hallucinogens and walking through corn fields. But then again I always loved to do some of the most intense **** while tripping... Like watching Rampage or sitting in the legitimately haunted upstairs bedroom of my buddies parents house in the dark, while on acid, by myself the entire time.

Oh while we was making them things a dude who wanders my neighborhood in a like fedex van with a truck bed converted to a trailer stopped there and dumped his unsellable wares in their dumpster and I saw a wheelbarrow so I ran over but I guess he took it but Jesus and a case full of cassettes of countries worst were on top.
 
What's the biggest string gauge for a 4 banger I can go to tune BEAD without having to buy a 5 string pack and filing the nut on the low E? I have a feeling that could be a reason why I'm not being heard very well...currently tuning down a set of .110's from E standard to B standard. Hmm...

You can get Circle K/Kalium strings in a 4 banger set in whatever gauge you want. I am currently using .136 for C and drop A#. I just had a new nut cut because the nut was busted on the g string. But I did have the .136 in the previous nut with no problems. I have also used .124 and it was pretty good.
