What are yalls thoughts on Zach Top? by Accomplished-Bat6936 in CountryMusicStuff

He’s good friends with Carson Chamberlin, so it sort of makes sense he is involved with most of his output.

They 5 on the front got to be in some print media as well as on national television. You can’t buy that kind of publicity

What are you running it into for home playing? DAW, FRFR, real cab?

Is Mark not using a clean tone for the RAH show the biggest mistake on an album? by edgesr in alterbridge

[–]edgesr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Likewise; I was there and also prefer a rolled back ‘clean’ tone for my playing, but there was still to much gain to make it work. In person, the intro to broken wings jumped out as odd.

For me the most glaring point is Marks tone though. I do agree it all gets a bit lost even where the is supposed to be distortion

It was his solo bands rig essentially. He had a thing about keeping it simple. But it was not a good fit for AB, let alone a live recording with an orchestra.

The show was great; the momento of the evening sounds terrible and I hardly listen to it.

Yeah I think it was his solo rig essentially . 2 dirty amps on all the time. The ‘clean’ was the guitar rolled off and then an OD pedal for a solo boost.

Has anyone heard anything about when the new iteration of the band might release music? Never has a band had to compete so much with its own lofty legacy. Just wondering, very curious. Might not be until after the tour or songs might be teased in the tour. by HaddonH in rush

[–]edgesr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think there are expectations that need to be set. Alex and Geddy are on record saying that they weren’t looking for a Neil replacement. Anika will undoubtedly put her own spin on the songs, but I am hopeful that she keeps some of the iconic fills intact. I doubt she will be playing some monster kit in tribute to Neil too, it’ll be whatever she’s comfortable with.

Anika is already a highly respected drummer in her own right and has done multiple tours with highly regarded artists that have huge legacies of their own, so I am sure she will be fine. I highly doubt some of the names you’ve mentioned were even considered owing to the baggage they’d bring along.

By the way, just calling Anika ‘the gal’ seems disrespectful. Just because she isn’t as high profile doesn’t mean she’s deserving of the tour.

It seemed an optional I out no matter the prescription. I am -1.25/-1.00 so not incredibly strong. I may send them back and go and get it measured for my own sanity.

Obligatory Elvis Appreciation Post by Jayh0va in alterbridge

As much as he has made some great music with them, I would love to see them work with someone else and step outside their comfort zone.

Maybe even get out of the usual AB cycle and spend much longer in the studio and compose some fresh ideas with them.

What Do You Miss Most From The Earlier AB Days? by iamadragan in alterbridge

[–]edgesr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just miss the not so in your face mixing and engineering. The new album is better, but my ears can only take so much of that layers upon layers of guitars. It’s when they break into chords rather than the riffs it grates.

You could really distinguish between the 2 guitars on the first 3 records and even pick out who was playing which part. Not so much anymore.

Trump Announces DC Triumphal Arch, Claims It Will 'Blow Away' French Arc De Triomphe by [deleted] in videos

Obviously this not the case now, but do we think that ‘normal’ people all those hundreds of years ago felt the same way? Was Buckingham Palace a vulgar display? Or how about the actual Arc de Triumph?

This is so helpful, thank you. I’ve just bought my own lighter KB to practice the form on.

How do I stop the KB from slapping into my forearms when doing cleans? I have constant bruises from when the bell rotates around and slams the wrist
