Sweet, that's kinda what I thought. We'll see what condition its in and see what Gor thinks.
It is in Adelaide....so courier.

Tytyty trey fuck cleans

Plenty of affordable amps can do doom. It doesn't necessarily have to be unobtainium like Matamp or Dunwich to be tr00 doom (although who wouldn't want one of those anyway?).

I agree that the riffs gotta sound good first. Go to a music shop and start jamming through whatever they have. You'd be surprised. Pedals can be added to taste.

Peavey has some great stuff and they are pretty cheap relatively speaking and can be found used frequently.

My buddy's doom band had a gig and his tube head crapped out and he asked to borrow an amp from me. All I had at the time was my Micro Terror. I brought it to the gig and he put it through the house 4x12 cab. No pedals. It sounded great.

Food for thought -- Dixie Dave plays a Squier.

Jus Oborn played an Epiphone for a really long time.

is that so?
I've read that Earth's/his side projects' shows are a little quieter than expected, but is that like...quiet enough to talk to the person next to you?
Do you happen to know what amp that is, anyway?

I just talked myself into tracking down an AOR 100 and playing The Druid again and again and again

I wonder how many Sleep Fans can play The Druid but can't play Some Grass...

I'd be one of them.

This is true, but Epiphone have historically been at times, better than Gibson, at others, worse than (insert worst brand you can think of here).

Lot of talk about AORs recently. I hope I've added to the gas.

You most certainly have.

Dibs on the flip. I need another one.

I think I have an emergency situation that calls for the DooM RooM Collective brain trust's help.
I have a cousin who is about 20 years younger than me. Dude grew up in Newfoundland, had ex hippieish parentals and they are nice people, but...
He's recently stepped out into the world at large, has traveled a bit, in vancouver now I think. Time to learn and become a person aside from what you were shaped to be right?

Tonight he posted a "please help" on FB. Seems his pc fucked itself and his whole music collection is gone. Sounds horrible right?

Here's the kicker. It was all jazz. The only album he still has on his hard drive is Herbie Hancock.
I value jazz as a historical part of musical development, but contemporary jazz is largely jizz. masturbatory mindless repetition of poor songwriting. "It's dissonant!" yeah ok we get it. we got it in 1947.

So his music is gone. good time to turn him to the dark side. I figured Russian Circles would be a good transitional start. any other ideas? He's a stoner, But I don't think he's ready for Bongripper. (soon )

Perhaps a little bit of "Across Tundras" would steer him in the right direction...
