Mark!

I like the tasteful sixties bunker art best. I remember pictures like those being on sale at Italian beaches way back in the sixties. Obviously, they have lasting appeal with some people.

Uwe, just admint you missed me! It's always clear people bully other people most if they really love them!

Actually I did! But then, after having been witness of what you did to Fräulein Rommel, I thought you might be lost for good ...

Some Dutch guy

Uwe, your stories and fantasies are very troubled and worrying...

Highlander · September 10, 2009, 02:38:07 PM

Not sure I like the look of what's going on in that last "master"...

Looking forward to hearing the new stuff..

I don't mind hearing about cavernous minds. It's the other caverns I don't want to hear about!

Be prepared: The new Boilersuit songs don't rock that much. It are all four quite slow-ish songs. Two ballads and two a bit more up tempo. The only fast song is getting remixed as we talk. But within some weeks I have MP3's!

The English Muff'n isn't that good for bass, but it looks good!

No, it sounds terrific, but you miss some lows now and then. But I love the sound and the way the tubes really react on how you play. More overdrive by pulling the strings harder.

Looking forward to hear the new tracks!

And, "sixties bunker art"? This must have been one of the bunkers where whe hid the paintings of the Rijksmuseum, just before the war started. Obviously this is the place where the works less talented students of Rembrandt were stored...

Chris you might want to try a clean blend.
This way you keep the low end of the clean sound. And you dial the overdriven part in to your liking.
Ask Rogier (Bernardduur) to build you one.

Good idea, Rob! Thanks!

... and less butter on the muffin...

I alway thought "Muffin The Mule" was something illegal until I discovered Smirn..., no, lets not go there...

And Uwe... that's why you love this place...

... and talking of "cavernous" intellects, let's not forget the (vastly overdue) apology to Alan Turing's family from our glorious leader, who continues to chew shoe leather on a regular basis...
