Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

Until Noah. I was super excited to see the film but, apart from a couple of great parts where his aesthetic style shines through, I thought it kinda sucked. First time I have seen one of his movies that didn't leave me with questions in my head at the end, too simple and too many "reeeeeeeeally?" parts :(

(IMHO)

It wasnt that type of movie, pretty sure we all knew the end before it started haha. This wasnt supposed to be the fountain, just an epic retelling of a classic story. The script was epic , acting was tops, looked really good, created a good atmosphere. Anthony hopkins was awesome in it to boot.

And its a biblical story, the entire thing has "really?" all over it. Again if you went in expecting some thought provoking interpretation ending, you had the wrong idea.
 
new pickguard ordered, found the Mexican tremolo and jaguar mute parts online. This bass vi is only getting better. Played for several hours last night, and just want my team work to be over today so I can get back to it.

Series wiring comes down the line once I've totally fussed over it and can focus on it's tone. Between these additions I should be able to go from muted dubby bass to twangy chords in a couple switch flicks which I'm getting faster at.
 
I have a faital ad on my banner saying upgrade your 10" cab today. The lik goes to speaker specifics but basically goes from a vague shove it in to some specifics with a price. You'd think at their cost they'd want to make sure they were suggesting you do something that would sound good with it so people don't freak out when their expensive speaker replacement is possibly a downer.

Fair enough man, glad you enjoyed it :)
 
Are you saying Noah is an "inefficient movie"?

lol, if anything its full of CGI which i hate, but it was done tastefully and not stupid like a lot of movies are. the CGI they used looked very similar to the lord of the rings/hobbit movies which is always done well (the fallen angel/rock creatures looked just like the Ents did in two towers).
 
Seriously. Spin that start and stream the same track from the internet. Great example of what is better about vinyl.

Oh I have been listening to it every time I go over to his place.

"Yeah, I know dinner... Gotta start BoS..."

I found an original pressing of Bridge of Sighs. I can't believe how awesome it sounds. Trower's guitar tone is amazing, one of the very few that can make a strat sound good.

I am going to have him record it off vinyl in to FLAC. Not as good as the real thing, but way fuucking better than streaming it.

All the Noah talk reminded me of a guy at work. We fought a house fire during hurricane Rita. Knee deep water in the house. Lots of fire, stuff from the attic falling on us. Crazy. We get it out and one of the guys walks out side. He holds his halligan (all steel tool) up to the sky and yells "that all you got f*****?!?" Everyone takes a step away and nervously chuckles.

I used to have an I survived hurricane Rita shirt someone gave me. When people asked how I survived, I told them I wasn't there when it happened.
