QUOTE (RUSHian62 @ Apr 6 2011, 06:07 PM) I picked up a Hughes and Kettner Switchblade 50 w combo http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v320/Mitchellmania/HKamp.jpg] I had a Line 6 Spider III 75 w I upgraded from. I must say at first I wanted my Line 6 back, but after a few days, I got all the tones I will ever need out of this amp! It's also very loud. Even a 0, it's like room volume! LOL! And the Midi pedal, I can store 128 presets, and I paid $800.00 for it new, so I'm very happy. I have a switchblade 100w head which I run through a 4x12 cab for live use, though I find it sounds even better through 15 inch speakers for some reason. I think it's a fantastic amp...it doesn't sound quite as good out of the box as other amps but tweaking is very well rewarded, and it's versatility is staggering. I can get any sound I like from clean to twang, rockabilly, crunch right up to Dual rectifier red channel territory. Thoroughly recommended.

Another point I would make...if a book has grammatical and spelling errors then it is most certainly not "literature". I guess McCarthy needs to give back his Pulitzer and Faulkner ought to give back his Nobel. Like most fear the Reaper, this girl (like most people) fears the Dreaded Red Ink Pen of Editing. She's young, naive, and hasn't been through the ropes, which you really don't get unless you get a MFA in Creative Writing, which is what most authors do nowadays. What she needs to do is do just that (get her MFA) and then from there get an editor or a literary agent, which is a lot harder than one realizes, just like getting published is a lot harder than one realizes. Ah, everyone thinks they can be a writer these days. *slaps everyone over the head with Vergil* Not good comparisons as their "errors" were deliberate rule breaking for effect (much in the same way Picasso broke the rules in art), and they were well aware of what they were doing...this young woman just seems to be grammatically inept. Oh, and you say Vergil, I say Virgil! Read what I wrote about the woman. And I was being facetious (pertaining to you) so I wasn't actually making a comparison. If anything I was being sarcastic. I tend to do that. The correct Roman Latinate spelling is Vergil. The English spelling is Virgil. I took six years of Latin, I'm just used to spelling it Vergil and I have my Mac setting to Irish so it doesn't correct it. I can spell it Virgil if you like. BTW, Toni Morrison earns less than Snooki for public appearances! *facepalm* I did read what you wrote about the woman...just because I don't give the response you expect doesn't mean I don't comprehend your point. And honestly, did you really think I didn't realise you were being facetious? Brush up on the sarcasm btw....it has to be funny to be any good. As for V(e)irgil....I think you missed my point a little, but never mind...I really don't care how you spell it. Oh, and as for Toni Morrison...not nearly enough porn or explosions in her work for a low brow oik like me. Look at you, Fridge, proving how difficult it is for some people to take criticism and attempting to pinpoint it back at others! I love it! You made my day. *scuttles off to the made my day thread* I'm really glad I made your day Criticism? I must have missed it..... You enjoy the rest of your day now, ok?

QUOTE (1-0-0-1-0-0-1 @ Mar 30 2011, 05:23 PM) It's METAL! I think it sounds good, and would sound even better with a real drummer in a live situation. Jace sounds good here, and would rip it up more in front of a crowd, I think. Guitars and the song itself are solid -- I like this heavier side of you that we've heard in these last two songs. The addition of the "female" voice at the end of the choruses is a nice touch. Did Jace to that? Cheers for that Yeah, Jace is a good singer and he said himself he would love to belt it out live more...he reminds me a bit of a young Cornell when he lets rip. Yes, he did the "female" voice as well More to come so watch this space.

Jesus. Obviously a product of the "I want it now" generation, this woman is a complete and unadulterated idiot. Another point I would make...if a book has grammatical and spelling errors then it is most certainly not "literature".

Sounds like an interesting start...very atmospheric...we need to hear more though to form a proper opinion.

Well done...you've certainly nailed the tone, and the playing was spot on too.

Folks Here is the latest offering that myself(guitars, bass, drum programming) and my mate Jace (on vocals) have knocked up at home..hoping to get a band together and gig some stuff soon. http://soundcloud.com/fridge2/wonderland2

I hate my inner social ineptitude and the amount of effort I have to expend to appear "normal" to others. I hate having to filter what I say in case I get weird looks or upset people. I would just like to be ME for once, even though I know it's really not an option. Ok...self-indulgent rant over...thanks for listening. This...still. Just seem to be going through a bad patch at the moment, and finding it particularly difficult to keep a lid on the Asperger-related gaffes just now. You know what? If we ever get the chance to meet, you can forget about the filters and just be YOU. I understand about the Asperger's challenges and besides, it's virtually impossible to offend me anyway. I hope you have a lot of people in your life who feel the same way. That goes for me too. Thank you both for the kind words, it is certainly appreciated.

That's right, I give you....subjectivity "Perspective" is a noun that means "point of view". "Subjective" is an adjective that means "dependent on personal opinion". To illustrate, you could have the perspective that Rutsey is still with the band, but that wouldn't make it a subjective matter. You'd still be objectively wrong. Ghostworks's point was that bad lyrics are bad, regardless of personal standards. Not taking sides, but it's better for you two to be on the same level regarding terminology. And Ghostworks' point is invalid, because there are no objective universal standards for judging lyrics. Someone gets it.

I'm well aware of the differences in terminology....you just missed the subtlety of my point Ghostworks was trying to claim that he had perspective when he clearly didn't...you cannot set an objective standard to opinions on artistic merit. The very fact that everyone here has a different "perspective" means that it can't possibly be "objective". See where I'm going? I note that Geddysmullet "got it".

As long as it doesn't squirm too much on my plate I really don't give a damn.
