When Stravinsky sounds normal.




But seriously, fuck that guy.

[dubkitty]

Stravinsky IS normal. it's Mozart that's fucked up.

[Derelict78]

I like being called a shitty guitar player or someone who hides behind walls of noise
It's awesome to turn the noise off and bust into some jazz standard or some chicken pickin stuff, bitches

this
The owner of the place my band practices at was giving me shit on sunday for using effects on bass he was saying its a crutch so I started playing some jazz. YEAH bitch I was a Jazz band nerd! and I LOVE FUZZ.

You own at least one offset and/or telecaster.

*looks*...

every time you open spam e-mail from pedal companies and you convince yourself that this time it might be a personal letter.

This! Fucking Mozart! That is almost all they play on the classical station up here..

That would blow for sure.

i've gotten to the point in life where i can understand/appreciate the comfort factor in that kind of relentless consonance, but ALL THE TIME? oy.

...your pedal collection is worth way more than your guitar and amp combined

...you fight your way up to the stage, no matter the crowd, just to see their boards

...you scoff at your guitarist that only buys things from Musician's Friend

...sound dudes hate you because a) you never sound check at the volumes you end up playing at. b) you head into a zone of feedback/delay/fuzzparty/etc

...you have money set aside on your direct deposits for pedal splurges

oh wait, these are supposed to be jokes?

[Achtane]

...you keep a similar effect around as a "backup, just in case..."
...and end up putting it in the feedback loop anyway.

This thread is gold. Especially these:

You read more posts than you play music.

Your Music sucks.

You own at least one offset and/or telecaster.

All my guitars/bass fall into this category

& pumpkinpiece's comment about delay before fuzz makes me wonder WHY THE FUCK I SOLD MY MONTAVILLIAN ECHO IT SOUNDED SO GOOD BEFORE FUZZ I SUCK.

[dubkitty]

none of my comments are intended as "jokes" per se but rather as ironic observations, and all the original ones i've posted apply to me personally.

... you buy a guitar synth, you don't look at the synth patches, you go straight to hearing how bad the included digital fuzzes are in the effect section. And laugh for a half hour.

...your idea of octave fuzz begins with three minimum units mistracking off each other in a beautiful wail of ugly.

..the Ampeg Scrambler is your ideal straight ahead jazz overdrive.

[dubkitty]

...your "clean sound" would sound like "wooly woofy overdriven crap" to someone from TGP.
