  1. Here are where my Gregwinds reside: Awesome is all I can say...the out of phase middle position takes some getting used to, but you can totally do UFO/MSG stuff with that tone...
  2. I'd love to man, I want us to add a keys/synth guy...I hate faking stuff, but I'm still having fun!
  3. Well, last night was the first rehearsal of my new 80's band...we're aiming at weddings, private parties, corporate events, etc...I really like the guys in the band...we all go back a ways but have never played together...anyway, it was neat...first time playing the AxeFX in a band setting and it sat really well in the mix...gave me some great tones and I was able to fake a lot of the etheral/ambient keyboard sounds of some of the songs... We nailed about 6 out of the 10 songs we had planned to work on...we took away the ones we didn't nail along with 6 or 7 new ones and rehearse again next week...We'll probably be gig ready in 2-3 months...we could probably gig in a month, but we're going to get really tight and get our showmanship down first...definitely a different level of planning and prep than my more recent bands...definitely going for polish and professionalism. The two main vocalists are great...really great...It's a big relief for me as now I only have to contribute backup vocals on occasion and focus on nailing the lead guitar parts and faking the keyboard parts. I'm stoked...it's really a neat experience...I've spent a lot of time over the past 5 or 6 years in bands that have taken themselves way too seriously...artistic integrity and all that...I've fallen into that trap myself...truth is, I just want to have fun and be out there playing...all of the songs we've done so far have put me in a good mood because they remind me of my childhood in the 80's...being carefree, being a kid, etc... Last night's rehearsal included these planned songs: Who Can It Be- Men At Work Everybody Wants to Rule the World- Tears For Fears Head Over Heels- Tears For Fears Down Under- Men At Work Danger Zone- Kenny Loggins Heartbreaker- Pat Benetar Don't You Forget About Me- Simple Minds Just Like Heaven- The Cure Devil Inside- INXS Just What I Needed- The Cars with spontanious jams on: Hot For Teacher - Van Halen Lay It Down - Ratt Limelight - Rush Spirit of Radio - Rush Still of The Night - Whitesnake Unchained - Van Halen
  4. Do they sound as good as the clips on the site? I haven't ran across too many amps that sound that good (at least via clips) for that price...any experiences with Valvetech to speak of? Positive or negative? Thanks, Shannon
  5. *drool* I wish I had the cash. I've been without a Hamer for far too long
  6. Neither one of these exist any more I don't think, but Disneyland After Dark and The Red Devils...
