RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE

What? Where is I will survive?

Shame

Used to be ..rock covers (I'm a metal head ,) Wanted to play in electro metal( ministry /front 242 etc ) never happened. If I were to join a band again, I'd go for tangerine dream meets tool kinda band. Was in 2 blues bands. Made me feel very old. On one rehearsal , I decided I had enough of the blues . We had songs such as' lightning blues , 'blues in my head'. When the band leader said 'I've got another song- down man blues' , I resigned from the band. 'We are a blues band you know ..,' Me; 'really ??' So no , I couldn't do blues anymore . And I hate soul/ funk etc. so I may not be varied enough.

Irig ?

Duracell for me. I buy one whe n I need it. When I used to gig, I used to put a new battery in my bass on gig night.

Thanks for that ,) it's not cheap either, considering I got the podfarm free with my toneport interface .

Straw poll?? Not horse eat again.. Well, you play more than me. I used to do 10 -12 hours a week when I was learning . In bands, 4hrs rehearsal room, and about 2 hours a week. Now ,I do about 3 hours a week. Need to do more

Stumbled across the Markbass the other day. If I already have podfarm, is there any point in getting the Markbass studio software. BTW , isn't it about time Garageband Had some bass amps in its collection.? What do you think?

Should this be in the recording thread or elsewhere ?

Actually tbh , there are Loads. I gigged most of the time with 1 guitarist . May post some of my old set lists over the weekend

Ace of spades

Ace of spades

Not sure if this is in the right category(amps@cabs). Just wondering if anyone here has the markbass software . I have the line 6 podfarm series of amps . Btw ; isn't it about time that GarageBand have some bass amps available ?

What's that song that starts 'do do do do. do do do do. ' ? I think it's by feeder! Oh and somebody told me the killers . Thankfully the band broke up just in time so never played them live. Nickel back , since you remind me. I'll probably remember more later

Regarding testament, they played at the monsters of rock in cologne to replace megadeath at short notice . They played before Dave lee Roth,anthrax, kiss and maiden.They were IMHO the best band of the day on par with maiden. They were almost the big 4 along with overkill and nuclear assault, but somehow lost their way. BTW 'hang the pope' the song that is timeless

Well, I've been going to so many gigs over the years . Regarding the big 4 , some of the best gigs I have seen; anthrax at the hammer smith Apollo (spreading the disease) Metallica /anthrax puppets tour hammy o.Slayer reign in blood tour hammy o. Plus many others can't remember right now . Megadeath in the early years were ropey IMHO .Flotsam blew them clean off at hammy o . Best megadeath gig I saw was at Astoria 7/8 years ago.( not the dreadful one a year later with session players). Yeah, they're all tame now. Suicidal tendencies were not on the same league IMHO . 1 good album( lights camera) 1 great single( send me your money ) crap live. Too political . Very samey , very Whiney. Only IMHO

A bit like that bloke out of the moody blues (sorry)

The other issue with the dying dog vocals, what are the names of the bands playing. Can't read most of yhe band names . I imagine a lot of fans would walk past the posters as they wouldn't be able to see who is performing. Either that , or they'll watch a different band by mistake.

[quote name='iceonaboy' timestamp='1361867208' post='1991994'] I challenge anyone to listen to this video all the way through! [/quote] I just did . God , I think I've had my wisdom teeth removed again

I feel Ill

Looks like the end could be nigh for Slayer. Can't do the link, but apparently Nr.Lombardo thinks he is being ripped off. He has been replaced for forthcoming Aussie tour . Then Mr. Hanneman is still recovering from his spider bite. Tom's back is still fragile. Besides all that, they haven't made a really good album since god hates us all . Everything is 'rumoured to be the next reign in blood' Losing interest in them now. At 50+ years Tom still wears leather pants ?? Kerry king looks like wwf . Anthrax still do good albums , but they have minimal original or near original members. We all know about Mustaine and ulrich. Never knew Kerry king was supposed to be up himself also. Better stop rambling now;)

Using GarageBand ?
