Considering Bent has his strings upside down, this is simply a drop D tuning. Still weird though, because VS is very easy to play in standard tuning. Maybe they don't play it in its original key anymore and have gone one step lower due to hard vocal parts… but in that case they could tune all guitars one step down. Oh darn, now I'm puzzled.
unfortunately that's not a Dutch only behaviour. they're everywhere. i don't get it neither why people look for a concert venue to go have a chat, especially when they have to scream to overcome the music.
and talking while a band plays softly is just as irritating. some have no attention span whatsoever.
and the farting: there was a guy once who took of his shoes off in the cinema. JESUS HOLY CHRIST!!! and it was a Blade Runner screening. it took me months to be able to watch that movie again.
ha I've seen two original Ampeg Scramblers on ebay for 1500$!!! There's been a reissue though a few years back.
My guitarist will bring her new POG to practice tomorrow. :curious:
I would like to like it GBD but I'm not in the mood for it right now.
Blame it on The Dawn Band, their Kussnacht is a great great great song I've just been listening to.

seen them last night, 90mins of grandezza. their two drummers line up is astonishingly mindblowing. go catch 'em.
If that's true: Fine by me. A long long time ago bands used to re-record vocals on so called "live" records when these were fashionable and therefore important enough to be released. So MP use autotuning to keep the listening experience easy on the ears. I thank them.
Cheating? Well there's pride involved. As a musician you don't really want your screeching, tour abused vocal chords heard for all eternity on a piece of music that was picked of the lot to be released because from the playing point of view it would be the best performance. And if we want the "true" odd note experience, there's more than enough fan recordings around.
oh nice.
So I put versions of Kill Some Day in the dropbox if anyone's interested.The drums were programmed, so this makes it a bit mechanical but also steady in time, meaning the bass only track can be used for a drummer at a click time of 185.19 (don't ask why it's such an odd number…), especially considering the pause and sudden impact towards the end of the song.
Also I didn't do a fade out but a rather "live" proper ending.

there's the option of sending files there and back if people have some audio programs that work well together. i got cubase and ableton live. then someone would glue them together and do the mix.
