Choop

Dude, my bad. You posed on your wall instead of the convo so I never saw it until just now.

What're you going to school for now? I need to go back and finish a Bachelors (I have an Associates, and less than 1 year left on a CSC Bachelors that I intend to finish at some point).

I started making more noise music again since the last time we spoke and I'm submitting and making some tracks for a potential split/collab album with some people on a noise forum so I'm excited about that. The guy putting it together seems to like my tracks and commanded me to make "MOAR" so I figure that's a good sign.

Oh awesome! I generally just riff about on the acoustic, need to write some actual songs. D:

I haven't done much at all with it, I got really really busy with school and just didn't have much time at all to play for the past two semesters. I know this semester will be the same, however I did play pretty often this summer. I have to play on a Pod because, shabang, I sold my 6505+ 112 and cab to pay for rent while I was looking for a job. Now I'm looking into saving for a new/used amp! :>

haha, I got really into Devin Townsend about 2 years ago or something, and was playing in open C for about a year and a half, it was just really fun. Now I'm playing in standard again and feel like a complete derp.

Haha, yeah that makes sense.

I've mostly been doing singer songwriter type stuff with my acoustic, we're still trying to find a time for my sludge/grunge band to play since we lost our drummer and became a three piece. What've you been doing musically?

Ha ha Another Ky seven stringer. Cheers

I don't have to be like that, I'd rather have no drummer than a shitty drummer that isn't very good and won't try to improve (or practice at all) and the guy we let go is lucky that someone else told him because I would have been much less nice about it.

Yeah, there's a thread on the meshuggah forums where Thordendal joined and told everyone what gear they used on all their albums up to that point. I'll link you when get home and get the link from my com (at the college now) It was hilarious, because after he revealed what they used, some guy was like "wrong" and at the top of the next page he posted again and was like "Hi, this is Frederick Thordendal..." All I can remember right now is that Chaosphere was dual channel Dual rectos with Marshal Lead 800 1960A cab, and Nothing (the original and better cut, they killed the drums on the rerelease and threw delay all over jens vocals for some reason...) was a Pod Pro (my two favorite tones from them, with two VASTLY different setups, .

Toonami dying sucked hardcore, and all the anime that gets played on Adult swim now sucks. I don't really even watch tv anymore, let alone anime, I need to pick up a bunch of box sets when I have time. FLCL FTW!

I've noticed that. That's why I need to learn drums, or find someone who learned drums after another instrument. Honestly, I think it's because drummers are so rare, that they get doted on all the time and they think they can just do whatever they want and people will put up with it becuase, "Hey, we finally found a drummer, let's try to keep him." I say .... that. Sick of that "whatever, don't show up for practice, avoid practice, etc." crap. Ugh. Thanks man. (couldn't find the high five)

Yeah like 85-90lbs or something, but since I'm trying to put on more weight and muscle anyway, it should only help. I really need to play/own a decent tube set up. Do you know the differences between the single and dual recs? Tonewise I mean (I know meshuggah used the dual on chaosphere and the tone on that album rules, but I'd probably wouldn't need the 100W)

All of the Tenchi's were awesome, toonami slowly died and it was terrible to watch it. I remember when the first robot dude died from that goo or whatever and they replaced him with the buff one. I was sad *end sad fanboy cryfest* I was even into GGundam to an extent, but after that, blech. Have you never seen FLCL? You're missing out hardcore if not.

I've just watched a lot of random episodes, but I liked it all. My friend had the CD and the music was awesome, it made me think of like experimental rock that was arranged in a jazzy sort of way. Imma get a copy.

I'm so goddamn sick of drummers now man, haha, we just booted a drummer out of this project I'm in the other day. I convinced everyone that we should just do mostly experimental music and rotate with who plays drums (a kick, and some toms this guy has that we play with old drum sticks while they're all laying on their sides ) and we recorded an improvised demo the other day that turned out okay. That's just like a sideproject for me I guess.

I need to play a nice tube amp soon. I never really have. I'm thinking about trading for/buying a Peavey 5150 combo just to have the experience (and then own a nice ss and tube amp at the same time a huge step up being as I've never owned a nice either one of them as of yet :sad: ).

I think you can find Cat Soup streaming somewhere, it was really cool. Interstella was awesome. I never really watched FMA, I watched like 3 episodes from random places in the story and never really had a chance to figure out just wtf was actually happening. I LOOOVE Outlaw Star, and I LOOOVE FLCL, and I dig Rouroni Kenshin, all of the Tenchi series(s), Old DBZ, a lot of the old Gundams (up to G gundam really), and some other stuff I can't recall, haha! I haven't been "into" anime in a long time, I don't really watch any tv anymore.

OH and I really really really want to watch all of Trigun.

Good jam buddies, any jam buddies, it's all rough man.

I know that Scott Hull has been using the Crate GT3500 in Pig Destroyer for a while (biamping with something else I think but still) and I loo-ooove all of the sounds he makes with it. He used a Mesa Boogie dual or triple rec on the newest ANb album, and it sounds ....in' sick too.

I had a 7+ page list of anime and movies and short films that I wanted to see and buy on microsoft word, but it was on a friends computer and he had to reformat when he got a virus so it's all gone. Ever seen Cat Soup? Or Interstella 5555 (a must if you like Daft Punk)?

Thanks. What are you playing most often?
A Crate GT3500, I have no need (or cash ) for a decent tube head atm. And I found one that I could go pick up for cheaper than the one I sent off for, so I'm going to get the MO cancelled and refunded asap and go pick up that one, I paid some of it today and I'll pick it up sometime this month.

Oh, and outlaw star is awesome!

Yeah, it's weird that the more people I find in KY, the farther away they get . I've got class tomorrow too, then I'm chilling in Evansville all day. I've been playing metal in all it's various forms lately, mostly like techdeath/doom/grinddeath/prog. I've been slacking as well, while trying to get a decent rig together. Damn moneyorder got lost in the mail so I have to get a refund and then send it back out for my new head. I could've already had it by now.
