I guess he just gets swept up in the moment. [/quote] He doesn't strike you as the kind of guy that would give a sub-100% performance...

[quote name='seashell' timestamp='1458659262' post='3009529'] Brilliant vids, Mick. What a great show that was! I also went to Mr Trujillo's Q&A on the Sunday. The thing I really wanted to ask was how does he keep himself in such great shape? He must have amazing thigh muscles!! But I didn't dare ask in case that sounded too trivial/sexist a question. Anyway, it kind of answered itself when he mentioned in passing that he does a lot of surfing What an amazing dude [/quote] I do remember reading an article back when he first joined Metallica. The whole 'crab' like walk thing he does apparently pretty much busts his knees up every night, but it's now expected by the crowd! When out on tour, he's on the chiropractors table every day!

No idea about the fan issue. Had a good three-hour full volume session on Monday playing punk and rock covers and the TH didn't seem to break a sweat... Will deal with these issues if and when they come, but for now I'm chuffed with it!

I have one of Michael Manring playing The Enormous Room but haven't had a chance to upload yet...

My moment of the weekend was a realisation during Michael Manring's performance. There's no way I can understand how he does what he does (or keeps track of those tunings...) so I sat back and just basked in the exquisite music he was producing.

And the Jaco bluray!

I wanted to try out some different strings. Got a bit carried away and am now suffering a rail replacement bus service home with seven packs in my bag...
