''God forbid the support act do something interesting.''

yep. watching some fuckhead with pretensions to rock-n'roll shenanigans huff nangs onstage is totally what i love to pay bucks to see.

so. dangerous.

fuck off.

This just arrived.

Ibanez BBD analog delay. <$100, shipped.

''We had been advertised on the Laneway Festival website and streetpress. A lot of people were expecting to see us.”

Not as many as want to see M83, turd. Suck shit for acting like an entitled little cunt.

^ This is why I need three different gains on the board - it's just too much wank to use amp gain and effects loops, even though (my) amp gain sounds better than any pedal.

So: 1 x fuzzface/boost type that actually cleans up for textural/rhythm parts, 1 x muffy/monolithic fuzz for thick rhythms and 1x something with some barky mids as a lead/feedback driver, because muffs sound like shit (alone) live.

About a 6. Not as smelly as mine, which rock a consistent 8.

And I eat ALL the meatz.

Frankie with the thread gold, once again.

guitar amps can be turned up or down.

Easy generalisation to make; the valves don't start 'working' until you're halfway up the dial = 12 o'clock. So the efficacy of your guitarist adjusting their volume is relative to where they get their sound from (amp gain? pedals? combination of the two?)

Papyrus.

''avatar is definitely to blame. that font sux''

No way - Payrus has been the go-to font for new age fucktards touting everything from lentils to homeopathy for years.

Once every vegan I know stops wearing leather shoes, maybe I'll take them seriously.
