Jelly you cant pull it off?

For years I've carried IEM headphones on me at all times...because annoying sounds are everywhere and it's nice being able to truly tune them out.

Annoying lighting is everywhere, too. Aint nobody (who's anybody) got time for their senses to be bombarded with tacky, garbage input.

But seriously...I've recently developed some kinda light sensitivity around fluorescent, halogen and (ugh) xenon lighting...whether day or night and inside or out.
Most neon and LEDs don't seem to be much of a problem...but glare from the others have been looking like a pedalboard night-shot with long aperature.

When outdoors, I've worn shades for years, but recently started wearing a separate pair
of lightly tinted aviators to tame glare, when indoors...and subject to lighting that is out of my control.

Less eye strain, fewer headaches.


But yeah...none of this changes the fact that douches love wearing sunglasses inside. Especially $300+ sunglasses. It's true.

At least mine were like $12


Edit to get back on topic: even sunglasses with limo tint wont tame the Sunshine Reverberation's brightness

Would rather listen to Steven do kareoke.

I only got into him recently. Seriously regret not listening properly sooner. Wasn't impressed the first few times I heard him then something just clicked. The Twins album had some seriously great fuzz tones on it!!

I'll try again sooner or later, I'm sure.

I have. It's a damn loud pedal!! Even with it's mid suck on most settings it still manages to sound loud and cut through.

Ehhhh This was in reference to the Fuzz War actually. I must have gotten confused about what thread I was in. Derp!

IM ALWAYS SO HAPPY TO SEE THEM!!! I usually go crazy and grab the mic and scream at everyone and push people around and shit. Theres always hipster stampedes to get the fuck away from the crazy guy enjoying the show. I get the impression the band enjoys not playing to a bunch of douches trying not to cry at the volume for once. AP2BS are about seven thousand times better on any random night in any random bar with ten minutes to set up and their shit just thrown on the floor than ive EVER seen MBV play with a two hour soundcheck and curtain call and an army of roadies in a professional venue. Also they dont get mad when i get shitfaced and steal shit from their merch table.
