Relax! I have bass pedals
I’m super ty ty but wanted to announce the arrival of a precious new addition to our family before I fell asleep.
Got these via mail via ebay yesterday and have been hell of captivated ever since. I’ve wanted a set of these puppies (not these, different ones, but close enough) for quite some time. As far back as five years ago I had a dream that I visited a Medieval Times style Led Zeppelin museum and asked the character playing John Paul Jones if he used bass pedals on the 1973 North American Tour.
A few months later the real John Paul Jones had the misfortune of getting cornered by the real me long enough that I was able to relate to him this little tidbit.
More to the point though, we’ve talked about using a bass synth on a few of our new numbers and come next week we’ll see how it goes when we begin rehearsals for our 2nd record. If you’re a stranger to Rush, early Genesis, and Zeppelin bootlegs chances are you’ve not heard what they sound like. They have a pretty novel sound and as a friend had pointed out, they can sound a bit like a Nintendo game. I don’t give a shit though, I think they’re something else. -MW

I heard that the Electro Harmonix Micro Synth can turn a guitar sound into a bass sound...maybe worth a look..?

Hey Guys,
This is Chase. I was the photographer at the Double Door in Chicago on 6/5/08. I got some really great shots of you guys. I posted some on my website so you can take a look. Fans are invited too!
Kamara, I’m Sharon’s friend. I’m a church member at Lakeview. It was really nice to see you guys up there. There were quite a few people rockin’ out in the crowd. Have a good tour!

You guys were the first opening band that I’ve ever heard that was really worth a damn when I saw you at Chris Cornell in like October and I’ve been listening to Soft Targets ever since. Misty Morning is the shit, and you guys need to release album #2 and get to the east coast!
Rick is the best drummer that I’ve ever heard and the rest of you rock just as hard, keep it up!
