thats cool.. and what a great show... I love this guy.

I dunno.. thats a pretty meh lineup...

in fact its the first lineup for moe.down that doesn't have a single band on it I really want to see.

other than moe.

Wintersleep - july 10th, capital city music hall...

not a free show but I am going anyways.

Oh joy...

winterlseep got added.

and I have a free festival pass.

you made me very happy.

just beef... thats all. maybe a little salt and pepper on top.

Cyclists are pretty loud when it comes to staking their right to the roadway and the worst when it comes to actually following the rules of the road. I see it on a daily basis: cyclists blowing through red lights and stop signs, riding on sidewalks, riding against one-way traffic, failing to signal, etc.

And don't tell me that's the exception because it's far and away the majority of cyclists that break the rules they are so keen to see enforced against other vehicles. I've even seen cyclists use the sidewalk when there's a clearly marked bike lane on the road next to it. The Laurier bridge is a good example of where I've seen this happen, for those in Ottawa.

my personal favorite is people on carling ave, riding bikes in traffic, holding up cars, when there is a huge 2 lane bike path running along the road... I have never seen a cyclist use it.

I am a guilty pleasure.

that would be a great band name...

thunderflurie.

there is no stupid part in buster... I don't know what you are talking about!!

haha. my fan is on almost all the time when I am playing...

I play loud though and am running it at 2 ohms... so it heats up quickly.

I wouldn't worry about it, just means its doing its job.

I usually have my di set about 1/4... and most guy say its a hot signal.. haha.

I used to love having the enhance up high but I founf I could only feel my bass during shows and some practices, so I posted on the eden forums (very helpful place) about it and was told to dial out the enhance.

problem solved, I now cut through a ton...

sorry, I didn't mean to make it sound like you didn't know how to use the amp, its just that I went from a fairly straight forward, 1 volume knob amp to this one and I had no idea how to set it up properly and was getting clippng and all kinds of crap at first.

its a great amp mark... just make sure to not overuse the EQ... I run mine flat all the time and just eq from my bass.. also the enhance is really only for bedroom playing, it tends to boost lows and highs and cut mids. So when you play live it can be hard to hear, because the mids are what really cut through.

also make sure to set it up gain wise as per the manual.

I have used the DI on all kinds of stages and every sound man comes up to me and says it is a great DI and sounds really good...

the rebel year.

I hate hyping it, but I am super excited about this gig.

seriously come see my band play on the 18th.

woohoo, I am playing bluesfest.

this is like a dream of mine.

I was really hoping to see wintersleep again.

no, this is my other band.

Hey my band just finished up recording our second EP and we are offering it for a free download for a limited time.

Its poppy rock so you might not like it. but oh well.

woohoo thanks brad. thats my band.

you can download our new album for free at www.therebelyear.com

why even have bbt there for the interview then?

I mean he didn't even bring his drums.

is it april 1st today?

I had a 8 ohm 410T for a long time.

I loved how it sounded, but I really wanted to run the amp at 2 ohms to get the full power out of it, so I sold it and got the 410xlt.

I have an eden wt-550.

I run it at 2 ohms with an eden 210xlt and an eden 410xlt. At 2 ohms its pumping out 750 watts.

I hit the low b and I am sometimes afraid my house is gonna crumble around me.

I have been searching for my sound for years and have finaly found it in this rig. ultra clean, crisp and punchy. mmmm.

I have never had to turn it up past half.

I had one of those yorkville rigs for a while. I couldn;t stand it. I have also had peavey (ugh), fender and a yamaha rig.

sold em all.

geez, man thats quite the resume you got there on your myspace. Nice to have such a knowledgable guy on our forums!!

If you have any of your basses, in ottawa let me know I would love to try one out.

about lakland. truthfully I would never buy a us lakland because frankly the skylines are amazing, and after hearing about the machining process.. ya. I'll take the korean one. its more than half the price. sure I might not get a birdseye maple neck, or a thick curly maple top... but as you can see in my avatar, my bass look pretty enough as it is

I love matt good.

I don't get all the hate for him.
