bang the fuck on. i love my sf champ and have gigged with it mic'd up several times. these days it lives in the front room with tremolo, slapback and reverb in front of it. occasionally wish it was a touch louder but that's why mister shure invented the sm57.
still looking for people for my new venture btw, it's kinda dirty skiffly pickin folkish stuff with an early rock n roll sound. need a great wristy drummer and "none-more-simple" bass player.
i'm going for a sun studios, dan sartain, m ward, merle travis-ish kind of thing but will be playing my daft faux-historical folk pop tunes of drowned submariners and exctinct semi mythical birds. it's a niche market i confess. obviously it's all a bit silly but i really hope to embrace that and avoid either the british sea power po facedness or the frantically winking archness of the decemberists. it's a fine line.
anyway, i'm off to the new soup studios in a couple of weeks to make the single and really need to put a new band together soon. shout if you know of anyone.
