I think Theresa was the only person in the room who knew that about me anyway. the rack had two delays, a fixed wah (III+) and boost pedal. but i think i'll bring an edp next time to play some of my more, ehhumm, legitimate looping sounds. but i will still be tweaking like a mo'fo. I actually had a great time yesterday. this was the first time i had played out in over a year and long overdue for me. i plan on getting there earlier next week. Both Tom and Stv were really cool and accomidating. I hope to get to hear more of you next week. were/are you also playing there wed.? as to my performance, i was somewhere else, i'm usually a little more coaxing when it comes to my sonic approach, but i was all jazzed up from the chai and the talk with you, et al. I was just grinning and playing that it really felt about a minute had only lapsed when i stepped down. for me that's a good sign, so i was really happy to have some folks hear some of the music i create. >There was also a fellow with a wig that >had hair that covered his entire head, including his face, >he played ebow gtr., rocky-yet a very electronic vibe. Who >was this head of hair? ;) man, he was alright. Citizen Peter or something along those lines. he was all sound on, very aggresive. >It was also great to meet fellow LD members, including the legendary>Dr T. - come back and join with us in looping next week in the Far East>Village. yeah sure was. Dr. T is really cool also, very down with sound. >>I'll be back, folks were very nice and complementary about my >microtonal gtr playing. I think I'll also bring my fretless gtr., >but not my POD.
