Anyone else thinking of a group meet-up tonight pre-gig?

Having got a dep in to cover my own band's guitar duties next Friday my bestest buddy has let me down and can't come to the Frost* gig with me so I have ticket going spare currently. Let me know if you're interested!

... what?

I have a Phase 90 and apart from putting it on the lowest setting for a gentle sweep during solos I've never done much else with it. Before I replace it with my new MXR Micro Flanger or Boss AW-3 Auto-wah post your favourite settings and musical examples here & persuade me to keep it!

Jem is blogging again!

Is it strange that my nipples are tingling? Maybe it was the odd tasting ginger with my morning cuppa but I'm excited!

Just saw this on YouTube

Steven Wilson and band (Marco Minnemann, Nick Beggs, Guthrie Govan, Adam Holzman, Theo Travis) recording "Luminol" with Alan Parsons in Los Angeles, 15th September 2012.

I lost a little bit of wee

Just a quick snap of the new front of house shenanigans I shall be using. Chain is Guitar -> TU2 - Wah - RC Booster - M9 -> amp.


Quick snap board finished! by baconsarnie, on Flickr

Such a shame the M9 doesn't have a true MIDI Thru option, I have to run 2 MIDI leads to the amp and back! CRAZY!!!

Ah, how the wide-world of Prog opens before me! Today's discovery...

Had my first rehearsal with the new band last night and snagged these poor mobile shots of the rig.

It's a work in progress but essentially a compact(ish) Wet/Dry rig. I hope to go stereo one day but am concentrating on just playing the damn guitar at the moment!

I appreciate this is hideously fan-boy-esque but having obtained Milliontown, EIMA and TPE I'm hooked!

What are the chances of getting hold of the 2008 tour album? Does anyone have one they'd be willing to sell?

Thanks in advance

I've only just discovered Frost* (& Kino)  :roll:

Sorry I'm late to this marvellous shin-dig, I know there's really no excuse but hopefully this large bottle of bubbly will compensate. Now, where's m' pipe?
