I can think of three amazing fucking bands that currently are "on hiatus" Due to key players being unavailable. About to be 4.

I had this stoned commie idea about getting a sort of collective pool of musicians together to be able to fill in on each others bands in case of injury, geographical issues, or to make touring a posiblity for people who cant afford to take off for a month whenever.

But hell yeah man, if you are going drastic, this probably isn't a bad place to run to.

If AW is no more, then why do they still practice?

I've had similar thoughts!!!! With so much band incest in alot of scenes it makes alot of sense!!! Get on it bro!!!!

Well it hasn't hit drastic levels yet but its never bad to have back up plans. It's a toss up between Portland and Seattle, been to Portland have not been been to seattle.

Having grown up in Olympia, and visited Seattle and Portland multiple times, I prefer Portland as far as general feel. If I were a bachelor looking to party or a college student, Seattle all the way... but I've always found Portland to be pretty relaxed overall. Granted I visited them for different reasons, so that probably biases my opinion... but yeah. Seattle's prettier IMO because Mt. Rainier fucking rules, but Portland has some cool mountains too.

Moving fucking sucks. I'm headed to Portland in a month, and it's ridiculous how expensive it is to move shit. I just wanna burn everything and start over, but I don't think my significant other is too fond of that plan.

Maybe Barracuda can back me up on this, but Olympia and Tacoma are pretty rad too, and I for one, love being in the middle of Seattle and Olympia, 30 minutes either way, and when I get sick of city, I leave.

It took a little tweaking to start learning my way around it but it wasn't long before I had that fucker ripping. Once i got the pedal dialed in a bit I went full on entombed style and plugged into the high input on the 2203 with everything on the amp dimed, the way it was meant to be. My ear holes were both melting and orgasming at the same time. It was fucking killer. Unfortunately I'm a huge pussy and I need a clean sound and stupid dynamics and stuff. So then I had to go searching for a second best sound, of which there are many. The overall sound no matter what you're doing is fairly honest about its hm2 roots, but it's very tuneable to what you've got going on with your amp. And it's definitely got more doors open to it than its predecessor. It can be more fuzzy and a bit more wooly if that's what you want, although it retains the chainsaw bite. I looooovvvveee the eq. The two mids knobs are awesome. It's crazy powerful. I didn't try stacking cause I don't want to right now with this pedal, but I think it might be really good for that down the road with this eq. I'm not sure if it's going to dethrone the badascan>ape blaster as my main dirt, but I'm going to try it at practice tonight and maybe use it as main dirt for a while. Eventually I think I'll have to either run another stereo rig so both can be the dirt for an amp or I'll have to start another band for this thing.

I kinda want to start another band with this thing anyway just so I can run it into a wide open jmp. That sound was fucking transcendental.
