I appreciate the effort you put in to that! Good rant.

Every day is Halloween - Ministry

Absolutely agree with that. An extended UK tour with Quicksand would help Sergio forget about Deftones.

That depends what country you're in. US uses 60Hz, UK uses 50Hz there's a bit of variation in that frequency as well.

I think some of it may be down to not wanting to replace Chi. The rest of the band were gutted when he died and I think maybe that's a big part of it. Sergio does deserve to be treated right though. I think maybe it's a similar situation to Jason Newstead and Metallica.

What on flat earth is going on here? That's a real shame. Sergios bass added some solid grooves to Steph's riffs. Quicksands last record was superb.

Of course humour belongs in music. I think there's a place for everything in music. Humour, politics, emotions, hate, love, religion, anti religion. Its all good as long as its done well. On of my favourite bands for humour in music is NOFX.

In to the white - Pixies

Thanks. Big pack of .88 tortex ordered.

Kick out the jams - MC5

The Darkglass Tone Capsule is very good. What I found very useful is that it has a high mid control instead of treble. It just seemed to be a much more useful frequency. The preamp board is nice and compact and comes pre wired and there's no soldering, just screw connections. I put one in a SUB (not US) stingray and it improved it massively even with the original, cheap pickup.

Does anyone know what the picks are that come with Darkglass products? I'm sure they're not making their own. I like them but don't want to buy more pedals just to get a few spare picks.

I bought a trolley from Screwfix. It lasted long enough to get my gear in to the rehearsal room but not get it back out again.

Listening to it or playing it? This tab seems pretty good.

I've really enjoyed this one. Really fun to play and not too difficult.

You do realise this is Britain? The difference between summer and winter is the temperature of the rain.

I quit my last band when the two guitarists demanded that I bought an SVT with 8x10 and got it within their three week deadline. The Trace cab was heavy enough. If you threw things at it they'd get trapped in orbit.
