i swear i made a post to this thread last night? did it get deleted? or did i dream the post? i had some crazy vivid dreams last night soo.....

anyway not like i said anything groundbreaking, but i do agree with what has been said so far. this is the only forum i go to, and have never had such a forum experience before....besssttt forummm evvvaarrrrr

my love of effects started with my boss gt-5 i got some 12 or so years ago. grew out of it a few years ago, but man that thing was sweet when i got it. gotta love fuzzy ring mod echo.......

this is the only forum that i have ever joined. all the others seem have good people too, but way too many jerks trying to piss people off. this seemed like a fun place to be and i did not have to worry about getting attacked for asking silly questions about things.

i am just happy to be along for the ride!

I agree with all you guys. Yeah this is the only forum I've ever posted on that I've never got into a big argument with. I wuv this place.

Around the Time I first found this forum was around the time I was looking at why did I start playing [17 years ago], as in what was the original reason, and it was to make sounds, not play tunes, not learn songs, not wright songs [all of which I do now] but to make strange god offal sounds. I started with FX [a headphone amp called a "sideman' had ratlike dist, chorus and flange]. And on one of my searches I run a cross this pedal company that makes a pedal that gets this sound I've been looking for, the sound of a pedal with a dying battery it got my attention it was close to what I was looking for, true not a 70's MXR phase 45 with a leaky battery but close

Oh yeah.........

we are generally the outcasts that people give shoddy looks to, we're the ones that get talked down to and accused of taking ourselves too seriously, we get asked the stupid questions
"who needs that many pedals?" "why so many fuzzes?" "why so many amps for 1 guitar?" "bass should always be clean" "you have a drummer AND a drum machine?" "you dont need that many delays" "are you really splitting your signal then running it back into itself? why?" "whats with all that noise?"

you mean i'm not the only one?
can I hug you?

While switching over some admin power to Tom some posts were deleted in the process. So don't worry, you're not crazy.

Or are you?!

It's...just.... So....beautiful!!!!


Seriously though, everyone I know scoffs when I get another pedal or make some wierd ass song. I'm glad I stumbled upon this page. I really am.

i can honestly say ... this is the only forum ive been on where i didnt want to stab someone.

but yeah, i havent been here long but i agree with the original post. me likes you peoplez.
