I've been reading about this one called Preacher. It's supposed to be super bloody. I actually found Kick-Ass to be one of the most depressing books. It's weird. I can see why the producers of the film changed it. No one would watch it!

Preacher is supposed to be very good. I used to be into comics big time as a kid, but that got pushed aside for other hobbies. I sometimes think about getting back into it - less for the collecting and more for the good graphic novels. Never read Sandman or Preacher - those would be top priorities.

Yeah, that plus another thread about some guy playing in a mega-church...so much for the whole camel walking through the eye of a needle thing.

I was thinking about this while walking my dog. What makes Praise and Worship a different genre from Gospel. Is it just that that young white christians are too scared to have their music associated with black people so they had to create a new genre? I went to catholic school as a kid (I know, the born agains think that's some whole other plane of devil worship) but we had to listen to Amy Grant and other bullshit and they still called it Gospel.

That's an interesting question. I think that since most contemporary 'praise' music is so generic, bland, and awful they needed a new word for it. Hymns and Gospel music are beautiful and I would hate for P&W to tarnish the good stuff

So I've been cured of the Sunn gas. My wife's sister is in town and while they were hanging out last night I played guitar for a while and decided that it would be literally impossible to keep the Sunn at a respectful volume - which got me thinking about managing volume with the baby in the house. So yeah. No big loud ass vintage amps for me, for a while at least. The good news is that my little rig still sounds supremely badass.

And now that the Sunn gas is gone, I have some heavy duty gas for a Les Paul Junior. Would that be really redundant since I have a SG Classic already?

I just stuck a Tone Machine in front of it in standard and it kills. Can't wait to try a Dobsky in C# through it. Came with mostly Tungsram tubes and all. So fucking huge though, 30x12x10 inches. Still I might stick with the SC120 and let the guitarist use this. We'll see.

Next up Matamp 4x12 and that'll be the end of my splurge. So after that maths about sorting a 2x12 looks like I won't be doing it at all. Do need some complementary speakers for a couple of Hot 100s or possibly just go with four of them, decisions decisions.

Couldn't resist this lot:

That looks to be identical to the one I'm checking out today except the faceplate is missing on this one. Sounds like it will be a winner and I sure hope it is as I'll be driving an hour both ways to try it out.

[LOCOPELAND]

[D.o.S.]

Hmmmm... is it in Port Orchard by any chance?

[D.o.S.]

I don't know about the AP100, but I do know the 200 had a ridiculously massive Partridge OT, there's pics in a TB thread about it.


(Chinese Peasantry hats make for better tube toan?)


The same thread also contains this Hiwatt monster.





Guh.

It's in Chehalis from what I understand.

[new05002]

Hiwatt 400 yea man killer 300W bass amp, and that Simms Watt 200 is killer as well.

[AxAxSxS]

Nope, chehalis. Dont go swooping it on me now

Yeah I was looking at those last night and drooling. Looks like great build quality , big iron and great clean amp sound. I'm hoping I can talk the guy down a teeny bit but might just snag it regardless.
