I'll let you know how the [i]Thirteenth Step[/i] show goes. :)

Last night, after finishing [i]Mer De Noms[/i], they played their The Cure medley, "Ashes to Ashes", and then "Imagine". I'm excited to hear tonight.


By the way, send me your damn email address so that I can send you this track.

Holy crap. In my 5-6 years on MX I never new about the ALT+S function until today.

I used to, but after clearing my inbox, I losted it. :(

APC was great again tonight. They were even more spot-on during the entire performance. They re-worked "The Nurse Who Loved Me" and made it a bit heavier. It was definitely nice to hear, and, IMO, fit into the album's overall sound moreso than the original. They closed out, again, with "Imagine," so that was kind of disappointing, especially after the 3-song encore we got last night.

I'm now kicking myself for not getting tickets to tomorrow night's show as well. Maynard said they'd never played one of their albums live, and I'm fairly sure it's [I]eMOTIVe[/I], so it'd be sweet to see the absolute first-ever performance of most of those songs (especially "Counting Bodies Like Sheep to the Rhythm of the War Drums).

I went to the show dressed like Maynard from this video (except I don't have the long hair, so I just shaved myself a mohawk). But I got the tight girl pants, "I <3 Brad Wilk" tank top, boots, and glasses frames

haha nice, your a lucky man to see two of those concerts, i would feel too bad about the third one.

FunkMetalBass 11-06-2010 03:20 PM

The problem is, at $40 a ticket (after "convenience charges", of course), I just couldn't justify the price to go see all three.

A guy I know, and I'm not kidding, because this isn't funny, is seeing U2 at every major city in Australia plus all their shows in NZ while they're here.

It's not funny, it's just sad. He's basically following the pricks around the whole fucking country and then over the ditch for a total of 10 concerts.

10 concerts.

Of U2.

10.

U2.

I can't stress this enough.

I think I just got sick in my mouth.

Hey all, here's a video from our show last night. It's a new song that's going to be on an EP that we're going to be recording soon. Would love some feedback/comments.

The show went really well. The place was pretty full and we got some great comments from people after our set about how much they enjoyed it and our music. It was a wicked night.

burtonbassist_102 11-07-2010 02:03 AM

I might have enjoyed it more if the sound quality was better. It was kind of hard to figure out exactly what was going on.

Now you know how I feel.

Sablate McNuff 11-07-2010 11:59 AM

Sweetness. I've almost got the 5.1 surround sound set up in my bedroom. I just have one last speaker to mount. I also soldered up a switch last night that will allow me to use the speakers for home theater or my computer monitors. Sweeet.

Also, I found that I have an old Quattro USB interface and a mic preamp, so I'm still able to record if I want.

fatbandit 11-07-2010 04:28 PM

my ex keeps trying to be friends with me, then schizing out every now and then, deleting my number, defriending me on facebook and all that shit, and blaming me for ruining her life, then asking if i even want to be friends anymore. after i've done nothing to prompt it. it's really tempting just to say no and tell her to fuck off, seeing as she does this every month or two and it really pisses me off.

From experience, this.

Sablate McNuff 11-07-2010 09:38 PM

+1 She's doing it just to get under your skin to see if you still have feelings for her because she's batsh*t crazy like all women.

Epidemechanical 11-07-2010 10:05 PM

Holy sh*t, I missed that the first time around. Sneaky sneaky.

FunkMetalBass 11-08-2010 03:04 PM

In other news, my pickup will be here sometime this week. W00t! Tomorrow, I'm going to do the preliminary routing and sand down the body a bit more. I also have to stand down all of the sloppy spraying on the maple fretboard (drat) and probably go over it once more with some #0000 grit steel wool.

The Brice is at a standstill for a little while longer as I haven't decided what image to put at the 12th fret.

That was why we were having the discussion regarding insert-off-here-offs!

*boom*

It's going into a Squier P-bass that my girlfriend is going to paint for me. If the special humbucker turns out to work decently, I'll order a new P-pickup with the huge poles (like delano: [url]http://delano.de/uploads/tx_smtdelano/pmvc4al.jpg[/url]) and try to get a slightly more aggressive sound from it.

ScorpSath 11-09-2010 01:45 AM

sup yall, how bout them frosted flakes

ScorpSath 11-09-2010 01:47 AM

ps when did wintermute return, like what is going on!!!

gaslight 11-09-2010 01:49 AM

Fatbandit, ignore her bullshit, she's probably just pregnant or something.

ScorpSath, honestly, Kellogg's Frosties are one my favourite breakfast cereals.

The great taste of Kellogg's Frosties... brings out the tiger in you, yeah! [Circa 1990 Singapore TV commercial].

FunkMetalBass 11-09-2010 09:00 AM

Frosties? You mean Frosted Flakes?

Let me learn you something:

FunkMetalBass 11-09-2010 10:23 AM

Goddamn Aussies, changing brand names n shit.

gaslight 11-09-2010 10:34 AM

I think America is the only country that actually has them as Frosted Flakes.

This is indeed a disturbing universe.

FlamingCouch 11-09-2010 10:57 AM

Probably North America as a whole... here in Cananada we have Frosted Flakes as well.

Now if I see word of 'Shreddies' referred to as 'Cosmopolitan Shredded Wheat Breakfast Squares' or something overseas... well hot damn I think I'll have to go on a killing spree.
