I blame the pig flu...

Quiet night last night. We went pretty well, had some video shot for promo purposes that went ok, played the Korean hockshop queen for a couple of tunes until the D string broke Am awaiting my little parcel'o'fun from GFS soon, so I'll be looking forward to the next gig.
I've been getting a pretty good sound by using the drummer's cymbal case in front of the AC30, moving it around until it's just right. Like a beamblocker without the price tag
I've been using these gigs as a chance to lash out when it comes to solos and fills, having a bit of an experiment with sounds, but more so to stretch out and break some habits. Don't always suceed, though!
Young PeteMac dropped in for a beer after his acoustic gig (in the next street) Haven't caught up in the real world for a while, we always seem to be playing on the same night!
Some money was made, pizza was ordered, the cycle continues...
