Like the "ye canne shout her doon" remark on the clip.

Harleyford road closed by police around the back of the Oval. No clue what happened. Anyone know?

Unsane tonight. See they've moved the show to Boston Music Room, which I'm guessing means no PA? They were brutally loud in the MacBeth last year (two fender twins at full whack), so more of the same tonight.

I always feel that people are well aware the chance of them getting caught when driving dangerously are minuscule, so they happily drive however they like and take risks.

Stricter sentencing is good, but unless more people start getting nicked for bad driving and the road laws are enforced more, then it's unlikely to deter people who already practice bad habits.

Hopefully this change will stop the stupid "oh, but I'll lose my livelihood" defence rubbish that people come out with.

It is good, but they need to actually enforce the law first

> Test bed - a place where you put pedals in order to easily test them, before deciding whether to keep them as part of your core sound or pass them on. I have loads of pedals like this - I don't dislike them so much I am going to sell immediately, but neither do they mean a lot to me. Nice to have two or three at a time there on your board so you can check 'em out again on a whim to help you find a use or decide for sure you don't want them.

This is where I like the determined choice - its either replacing something fully or its getting swapped out. No space for hangers on, so they gotta be worth keeping.

Just remembered about Omar Rodriguez-Lopez insane pedalboard he used to have. Off to look for pics.

Volume>Wah>Phase>OD>Fuzz>Octave Fuzz>Echo. Neatly stacked in two rows and includes the power supply and my tuner running off the volume.

If I wanna add something, I've gotta take something out. No islands.

Amps got reverb built in, but I don't use a lot anyway.

Pedalboards.

It has been pointed out that my choice of using a small pedalboard to deliberately force a decision on the amount of pedals I can use at any one time and make me decide exactly what stays and what goes is "different"

Anyone else do this? I find it stops redundancy by not giving space to something that never gets used.

Fuzzface. Yep, needing fro give one of those a try at some point.

My descending order:

My tone bender clone - alright, but not great. Seemed to work very well with an amp putting out some serious volume, but was a bit nothing generally. Retired. Output wasn;t that great either so it was max or volume drop.

Big Muff - my longest serving fuzz. Thick, good fuzz. I didn't run it with a large amount of sustain, just volume up a fair bit, tone on middle and sustain on 3, maybe. Retired.

Those settings were to get a particular Narita Munehiro type sound, which works for me nicely.

Aya Tokyo BM70 - one ups the standard big muff, being a rams head muff clone and seeming to just Do It Better. permanent on board

Shin-Ei/Univox Superfuzz - the new one, octave fuzz. Loads of output and as heavy as it gets really. I'm most impressed.

I tend to run quite a bassy overdriven amp anyhow. Run the Aya and the Superfuzz side by side with my Dopefx overdrive and it does the lot.

Interestingly, the wah goes mental when running through the octave fuzz - clearly the two are doing something together to give it a particular sound. That odd wah sound that early Electric Wizard got? Its that. In fact, the superfuzz does the Supercoven sound to a tee.

Another one for the "is that wetherspoons?" pile.

Because we're BRITISH damn your hide. Rulers of the world, opening up vast new areas of the map for Victoria, and showing these colonials a thing or two.

When I had a retail job for a while, we'd be half pulling down the shutters about 10 mins prior to the end, so that the people milling about could decide and pay, but no other customer could walk in. If someone ducked under the shutter, they'd normally face the inquisition and be sent out again.

That's what the bosses told us to do, so that's what we did. Almost every other store in Bluewater did the same.

Okay, FY6 Superfuzzes are pure monsters in pedal form. Huge huge tone and a head melting amount of fuzz. Lovely bloom sound as well, where the octave comes into play under the fuzz.

Well recommended. Utterly shames my other pedals and their (now) puny outputs.

Now its been mentioned, I've started noticing it on the stretch between Blackfriars bridge up to Clerkenwell. Some buffoon tears out from the other side and attempts a quick overtake before pulling in at the last moment. Its like driving in Sicily.

I just laid down money for a new bike and there was lots of discussion at work about whether I should use cyclescheme or not. After much consideration, I decided not to as it seems a massive ballache and I'd rather pay a bit more for an easy life and full wages.

Slop.

Stans Satyrs

Some fellow ranting and raving at volume just off the Black Prince Road. Loudly raging about how bikes are more dangerous than cars and kill more people. How they are silent which makes them more dangerous and should all be banned. When I asked him if he read the Daily Mail, he was genuinely livid with disgust at being branded a Daily Mail Reader.

I suspect the gentleman may have had a bottle.

Visited this silo last week

I've had that. "You get out of MY way, mate" was the impression I got from it

Custom Shin-Ei FY6 clone is in the post tonight. Weekend is gonna be good times.

Forest of Equilibrium, maybe?
