Wait, was that a rehouse or did you just make it all and cram it into one massive box?

Either way that is freaking amazing!
Do you like listening to homemade music? Me too. Why don't you try one of mine?

Thanks everyone. It's a rehousing of all those except for the wolf computer (i made a deal with letsgocoyote for that one). It's pretty crowded in there, I'd post gut shots but it's not as pretty on the inside. And it's pretty hard to walk away from after I plug in

I etched my first enclosure last night. The picture looks worse than reality. It's not as deep as I had hoped it would be, but it still looks cool. It was a learning experience for sure.

Here is the image that my graphic designer friend created for the pedal.

what gig was that?
i went to go see mouthus, which were fucking excellent! I should try and get a picture of their pedals next time.
Boss Slicer, EHX HOG, EHX frequency analyzer, uh.... + 10 other pedals for the guitarist
and a table full of stuff for the drum machinist. sounded really rad.
completely different sound then their last show at cool fest
but still wicked rad and huge.

dunno mouthus. sounds like they've got their gear in check though!

I went to see film/burn/drone at l'envers. it was thisquietarmy first, then ricardo's (ghost limbs) new band, then dave's projections and ambiences. it was him and a couple other people from godspeed/feu therese (roger, alexandre, jonathan) and some people I don't know. and now I have a headache. :sick:
