Do you have dreams about pedals?

Post by wdinc01 »

I'm sure we all do. I had a dream last night where I went to some shop and their mail guy was just there dropping off a pedal that I had ordered. The best part? I either ordered the pedal super long ago, or I had been going through so many other pedals THAT I DIDN'T REMEMBER WHICH PEDAL I ORDERED OR WHAT IT EVEN DID! I think it was some made up pedal that was similar to that wind mill chopping anti-pedal (you know the one) but with a case that looked more like a Jet Phaser or something. I was then invited to a cool party.

Share your dreams where pedals were central to the plot.

I had a dream I was helping a friend clean out his closet and there was an old pedalboard in there full of weird (re: nonexistent in real life) and interesting looking pedals. He told me he didn't play anymore and I could keep them.

I was pretty sad when I woke up.

Oh also I dreamt about a cool two-knob Marshall head that had stereo speaker outs.

I always have dreams that I found gear I forgot I had... like extra amps and pedals. Then I wake up and realize I don't have that stuff. Dreams are the worst.

I dreamed about a super programmable arpeggiator last night. I found 2 of them for cheap (one for synth, one for bass).

I don't know how dreams expect us to follow them when they pull shit like that

I had a dream last night that I was playing a gig. Half way through I stepped on my Torn's Peaker and by bass player's strings became spaghetti, I forgot what I was playing and proceeded to have a seizure.

It was really fucking weird.

Now you ask, I recall having a dream probably a couple of months ago where I was going through a cupboard of a (non-existant) deceased much older relative, and found loads of 60s/70s vintage pedals and their original boxes. They weren't anything I recognised as being a real pedal.

I had a dream once about getting an EQD hoof.... I dont even really want a hoof... Its like... 4th on mty EQD fuzz want list.

Then i had a dream about a special EQD/Devi fuzz where it looked like a MXR zakk wylde chorus, but had a combo fuzz in it, and i had to trade all my gear to get it, but i had to have it...

I was so disappointed/relieved when i woke up.

For the record ive never really wanted a Devi fuzz or even seen a Devi fuzz in real life, let alone played one.... It was cause you guys are always on about them i think

:lol:

I sometimes dream about really crazy pedals that I love and waking up is a huge disappointment, and then I forget what they were in about a minute so I can't write the idea down and recreate them. :( They probably don't make sense anyway.

I had a dream last night that I finally found a gorgeous 2x12 for my Traynor and it was only $150. I was kinda bummed when I woke up.
