If I don't, it will probably be very sweet and a bit thicker than I'd like. I imagine it will be more like an alcoholic juice than a honey wine.

Because the voices JUST WON'T STOP

Anyone who was desperately keen to hear a new RSH track now has my permission for a period of seven days.

I'm leaving for Japan in about 8 hours, take it sleazy guys. I'll see if I can take some photos of me playing the giant keyboards at SonyWorld.

I live on the 3rd floor of a building on a hill. So no :smash:

And the airport's quite close and staying open due to "excellent drainage".

Peace out!

Very stupid question - yes, they are.

In a few weeks, I'm going to add a few more tbsp of chocolate and all-spice to the chocolate-cherry mead. I need to add to the lemon-lime as well, but I'm not sure which route I want to take - 1/2 tbsp of lemon flavoring and 1/2 tbsp of lime oil, or if I should just add more lemon and lime zest. Hmm, decisions.

gaslight 01-13-2011 08:23 AM

Put skittles in it.

funkyhoney 01-13-2011 08:39 AM

Just in case anyone cares, *coughpluttergurgle* gaslight. The track was recorded live with a single room mic (really? I couldn't tell) and the vocals added after. I think it was pretty damn tight considering we recorded it on the fly with no vocal cues.

gaslight 01-13-2011 09:27 AM

I am tempted by this gorgeous looking Pavel five string 'jazz pro classic' an Aussie store has. Looks amazing but $5000 is too much for me to spend on a bass or even two basses honestly.

FunkMetalBass 01-13-2011 09:45 AM

[quote=gaslight;18354860]Put skittles in it.[/quote]

Now I'm tempted to buy a bunch of skittles, toss them in a gallon of water, and throw yeast into it...

BTW, Pavel make awesome instruments. However, my general rule is that, if you're going to spend more than a few thousand on a bass, you might as well make it a custom.

gaslight 01-13-2011 10:10 AM

If I had $100,000 of completely spare money, that's pretty much when I'd begin to thinking about buying an instrument at that price.

Epidemechanical 01-13-2011 10:23 AM

I like Sadowsky instruments. He does fine fine work.

For the price, though, a USA Neckthru Spector is definitely where it's at. :thumb:

Epidemechanical 01-13-2011 10:40 AM

I think Spector instruments balance much better and they have a thinner neck, at least comparing the Studio 6 to the USA/Legend Spectors.

Yes, I do want to hear it.

I thought you didn't like Tool?

Epidemechanical 01-13-2011 11:44 AM

love tool bro lol what are you talking about i learned to play like almost every song of theirs on bass at one point i even had like 5 of the same exact pedals as JC

Convectuoso 01-13-2011 01:40 PM

What you're probably remember was his pseduo hatred for every rock band wanting the singer to sound like Maynard.

At least that's what I remember lol.

And yeh Tool are pretty sick when you actually think about it. Like I find myself always writing them off just another really good band. But you listen to them and it's like okay this is pretty awesome.

Rift Walker is def Tool riffage, I dug the drumming when it goes into the heavy part. It was actually as close to Danny's drumming as you probably could get with programming lol.

Simpleton 01-13-2011 05:30 PM

I miss my schecter custom 5. that was a sweet bass. Some DR heavies on that thing, shbamalama modernfunk

Epidemechanical 01-14-2011 01:03 AM

alright guys i finished my new song

here it is in its entirety, took me 3 days lol

its mostly all in 9/8, the drums certainly are, but i adjusted the meter to try to cheat in some polyrhythms with 4/4 guitar stuff

also joel i dont program drums i play them on keyboard then quantize

Simpleton 01-14-2011 04:06 AM

you should program them then randomize then regroove till you orgasm. thats what i do.

gaslight 01-14-2011 04:38 AM

Can't tell me it's not beautiful, but can tell me I can't have it.

I like my Schecter, but the neck on my Spector Legend and my custom 8 have spoiled me - they're just so much thinner.

I really don't care for the color, but the J/reverse-P combination is definitely sexy. That's one of my favorite attributes about most 4-string Spectors. :)

FlamingCouch 01-14-2011 10:10 AM

I can agree that it's certainly beautiful, but I don't know about 4,000+ beautiful.

For that price it should be able to blow you too.

gaslight 01-14-2011 10:12 AM

Yeah I'd never pay that unless money was no object for me.

Epidemechanical 01-14-2011 10:32 AM

listen to my damn song douche bags

FlamingCouch 01-14-2011 10:39 AM
