Can y'all tell this Beryl dude to move in and move on?

Looks like that Pokemon is evolving. Shoulda lobbed some space lasing in early on.

Be sake Rick.

Rice wine kinda makes sense; there are rice fields near Houston.

Never happened like that before - it was a little baffling. In general I'm always relieved when I flip the mute switch and bass sounds comes out. I do bring a small portable back-up amp (250w TC Electronics) occasionally but didn't yesterday. They want us back and considering I got away with sharing one PA monitor w/vocals I'm thinking I could get away with using my bass room/office amp - a small Acoustic B20 1x12. We played pretty respectfully/low volume - so I know the little B20 would do the job. Having never played that event, I didn't know what to expect - it's more like a coffeehouse gig. Live & learn.

I keep a backup P_________ MAX 110 in the gigmobile. JIC.

Yeah. Like the mute switch mysteriously getting turned on and not realizing it.

Three things to avoid at a gig: don't set a glass of overpriced scotch on your amp before the first song - don't leave a pick under your G-string and tune to it - don't forget to return tuning from drop-D to E before starting the next song

We need some links here from Mike @GonePlaid . None of the searching other forums business.

I've put up a coupla videos on other threads(Rumble Club, EB/SG Club, Combo Club), but because I'm not playing the 67NR, not here. [Outside gigs with typical FL heat and humididity-'Bird stays home in the a/c] Here's one from a car show gig we did in 2015 with a sax player friend of the band sitting in(we've never rehearsed with him):

EDIT: Sorry, YT automatically plays the rest of the song list(from a second show-different amp)-plus something else that I have no idea what it is.

What is P_________ ?

 

[GonePlaid]

What is P_________ ?

A certain brand of amps whose name I refuse to acknowledge after what they did to their employees.

They're famous for being built like a tank and weigh almost as much. Were made in MS.

Another one I discovered. Don't put a bottle of water, even sealed, on an amp with the switch on a slanted part of the back of the amp. When the bottle falls off the top of the amp and bounces off the switch, bass goes away for no apparent reason. That leads to a period of scrambling around trying to find a mysterious failure in the middle of a song. Turning the switch back to "on" solves the problem, but that's the last thing anybody looks for.

what did they do to their employees?

Had a drum tracking session today for an instrumental of mine with one friend playing and another recording and me producing (mainly keeping my mouth shut). I released this snippet drums and bass only. Epi VP with both pickups on. Not a bad sound if I may say so..

Once in a jam-session, a cymbal fell over and neatly severed my guitar-cord.

Basically shut down the factory in MS with no warning. Put a bunch of folks out of work.

Well, that's the brand, the name of which I refuse to say/type 'cos they're a bunch of @$$holes.
