Dude that was sad to read, but stay strong mate. You'll get through it, just stay positive and think about the love for your family...thats the real stuff and that itself will push through it.

I'm not going to say "sorry" yet, because you've still got a shit-ton of heft left in you (like my rhyming?). Just take it easy for a few weeks. See a doctor and make sure you give your mind time to adjust. Adjustment to any new problems is key, IMO.

AxAxSxS wrote:Harsh news man. Like nick said, you will overcome. I've got a laundry list of things wrong with me at the moment and have been looking into ways of dealing. Diet can help a lot as well as the right kinds of excercise. Believe it or not my physical therapist has me doing a lot of things derived from yoga. Maybe a yoga class would help. Also is a great excuse to hang out with chicks in yoga pants..... Glucosamine supplements and omega 3's in the form of a delicious salmon dinner once a week are beneficial. And if you are eating lots of processed foods IE: McDognuts, cut it out. your body wlll reject that shit in weird ways. I've had people tell me all kinds of weird shit thats supposed to help, yesterday It was cinnamon and honey taken together daily. Who knows. I think the stuff that makes sense is the way to go. Hope it works out for you. I've been checking out Drop electric and It would be a damn shame if you cut back on your musical endeavors. I know for myself, its the only thing keeping me from suckstarting a glock. I used to do a lot of active recreational stuff, snowboarding, mountain climbing, running, hiking etc. That's all off the table for me nowadays and its rough. Seeing rigs like yours and some of the others on here has inspired me to put together some shit on a new level and that's kept me going man. So, thank you, and again, I wish you the best

I think it's great to see musicians inspired by gear. For years I felt silly for being inspired by what I hit with my feet or what amplified my guitar. But finding the Doom Room has shown that there are other people out there who really delve deep into their sound. They don't just care about what they play, they care about how it sounds. The humility in accepting that we don't have to amazing musicians like Frank Zappa or Matt Belamy—that we can be something else entirely whilst still being professional musicians—that is wonderful.

Now the only thing to hope for is that it will work in the loop of my Soldano. If not no biggie because I have the JCM 800, but it would bne nice if I could find pedals that work in the loop without having to either mod the loop or get other crap to convert the signal to work with it.

Yeah, the Soldano loops are a bit of a pain. I'm sure TC Electronic have considered this when building the pedal. Whether they've actually included an option to change the pedal from instrument level to line level, I don't know, but one would thick they had.

Nice. Congrats, mate. Like I said, I love the look of those guitars.

Ancient Astronaught wrote:Thanks buddy :hug: I know I will, like I said alot of things have tried to take me down and none of them have won yet. Luckily since the beginning of the year I've started eating alot healthier, if I'm eating by myself I eat vegetarian. Not only is it better for me but it makes my body feel better, but when eating with the family or feeding the kids I'm not going to force my diet on them. But at that point I usually eat something better for me (I try and stick with chicken or fish). As far as yoga that's not a bad idea, my wife works at a gym and she's been trying to get me to join her in some classes. Thanks for checking out the band my friend, it's been such a blast and everyone in the band I consider a friend. We've had our rough patches as any band has but its done nothing but bring us closer. And thanks on the rig! I'm just passing along the inspiration that the people before me gave me, we must continue the tradition of the ultimate doom rigs!!!

I'm glad things picked up again with Drop Electric. I was worried it wouldn't work out between you all.

Nice to see all the support for skip here. I wouldn't expect anything less but its still cool.
Skip that's awesome the wife wants you to join her at the gym, you so should. Get healthy and spend quality time with wife = win/win.

Nick that's gonna look so badass etched. Hope you guys make. that happen. And the 3 led idea would be rad. } know you said it won't fit, but there's gotta be a way. Maybe one led to a bit of fiber optic material?

Torche is playing a town over so I will have to venture to that. Going to try to avoid buying any vinyl but if they have self titled or In Return I doubt I will be able to resist.

Holy shit dude. I hope this goes as good as humanly possible. I'm 40 now and health news has taken on a whole new level of importance.

That has quite a look. I really like yellow. The pickguard throws me off but I think I like it?
