Shiner

[tremolo3]

I went to see Sweet Cobra and The Life and Times last night at Hideout. Really intimate gig. Epley is really thoughtful about how he uses effects, and a lot of the time it sounds like there are two guitarists. It's always in sync and well executed.

For the uninitiated: https://thelifeandtimes.bandcamp.com/al ... -like-i-do

I'm not sure if he splits his signal, but he seems to go into a Hiwatt Custom 100 (into what looks like a small 2x12" cab) and an AC30.

From last time I see them I noticed that he has a lot of pre-recorded tracks on his Jamman, mostly the "tremolo" and synthy sounds that he usually plays when he brings the keys to the stage.

Drummer plays like a mad robot.

I want the japan version of the cd, so impossible to find

I has, hit me with a PM and I'll set you up

Otherwise you should get on Discogs, and add this to your wantlist: http://www.discogs.com/Shiner-The-Egg2/release/4267785

As soon as the LP popped up I jumped on it.

heh, man it's been on my wantlist for over a year I think...

I have an extra ticket to tonight's now sold out show at the Empty Bottle. If you're in Chicago and would like to attend, ticket's yours if you buy me a beer at the show.

So this show was excellent, for the record. Really huge, tight sound for a band that basically never plays.

Sidenote, I thought this was interesting: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hum_(band)

Looks like Jason Gerken (drummer from Shiner) is now drumming for Hum, and Bryan St. Pere has parted ways with the band.
