Tits. How is it?

It sounds sweet. I need to take it in for service, but I woke up early today and played for 3 hours straight. It sounds good even when quiet, but it can rip.

I'm making a 2x12 and a 1x15 cab to go with it.

yo. Clips when all ready to go?

[dubkitty]

that sounds perfect.

i'm finally going to go to the chiropractor and get my back/neck adjusted this afternoon. i've needed to go for--literally--years, but i had to leave my old chiropractor behind in San Francisco since it's not practical to drive the 70 miles back and forth for appointments and i'm kind of phobic about medical stuff in general. plus i've been dead broke forever now. but it has been so bad in recent weeks that it's utterly unbearable. i'm rather looking forward to the idea of being able to sit up without hurting so bad that i want to cry or holler at something.

SWEET
I went to see them in albany a few years back and the building collapsed and the show was cancelled.

Still have not made it back to a show....

[dubkitty]

"the building collapsed and the show was cancelled"

before, during, or after?

[hbombgraphics]

Before: HA
I realize now that is obvious but will still post.

Also: We spent like 2 hours in the Albany Daddy's jamming so it turned out to be an OK night.

[dubkitty]

I was going to be much more interested in the group if they actually made the building collapse.

[hbombgraphics]

that would be a selling point for any band

first to albums are insane:
Lyrically they are all awesome but they have gotten lighter over time
I don't generally like when bands do that (silverchair)

[dubkitty]

well, to be fair, Silverchair were awfully young when they started out. it's tough to maintain that level of energy once puberty begins to wear off.

True, but frogstomp is timeless: Maybe that is the problem, how do you follow something like that?

havnt u heard the story about the guy in the park with daniel johns he was sitting on a park bench and some guy yells FROGSTOMP MAN!! WHAT HAPPENED?
and he got frustrated

u cant play the same cards over and over it would get so stale i liked that they moved away from it

[hbombgraphics]

yeah aussie bands that play the same thing for years end up being AC/DC

but frogstomp sounds so much bigger than the sum of its parts
