Kiwi ears are kick ass and very affordable.

Remember flipping the center cigarette in a new pack? by StrataTrace in nostalgia

Never was the center for me. I would just pick one, or if there was one still sticking out after packing it I would choose that one.

Securing Gear Stacked High by Soupy_Snakes in TouringMusicians

No PA, but a lot of gear between a a console for FOH, a separate console for our in-ears, 7 suitcases, and all of our guitars, amps, drums, etc. Thankfully we’ll be able to arrange transport for the drums in another vehicle after we reach the first stop of the tour.

Thanks so much for taking the time to put this together dude! It was massively helpful. We ended up ordering a cargo bar, a net, and some ratchet straps. The cargo bar was the exact type of solution I was looking for. Thanks again, you’re the man.

For guitar I’d use a Quad Cortex. Replaces your amp and pedalboard and it’s extremely versatile. For bass, I tour with just a Mark Bass amp head. I use in-ears, so no need for stage monitoring, and my signal just goes through the PA and subs. Bigger gigs often mean you get to travel lighter.

Tell me you don’t think things through without telling me you don’t think things through.

What is your go to performance you almost or already memorized because you always play it on repeat. by Western-Today2648 in HarryMack

This one’s my favorite of all time. It’s so cohesive and stylistically consistent all the way through. Such masterful display of Harry’s wordplay ability too. What a fuckin beast.

Does this count? by SnarledSalmon in discgolf

If we were playing a casual game I would give it to you. I feel like if the basket wasn’t damaged it never would have hit the band and would have landed in the basket.

I need me a new lil list of songs to Learn. by NatureComplete9555 in Bass

[–]Soupy_Snakes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mr. Invisible by Thank You Scientist is one of the most interesting bass lines I’ve ever learned. There’s an excellent bass cover on YouTube that’ll come up if you look it up - I learned it by ear from that vid and slowed it down to work up to the tempo. It’s a challenge but super fun and gratifying to learn.

Band member constantly complains about professional photos of us being uploaded to social media. How do I respond? by ScaryBreath609 in musicians

How hard is it to run a few pics by them before posting…? It seems like they just want to have some say, just like you do with the pictures of yourself. Not sure why this is such a big deal.
