suck-ass gigs...

[ItsaBass]

Don't they just make you livid?

I had one tonight. I was in a foul mood, I was tired, I was hungry, my mind was a million miles away, I was playing like ****, our singer kept ****ing up the songs, and I was having equipment problems with my SD Pickup Booster, which, like an idiot, I didn't test before taking it to the gig. I jut got a wild hair up my ass that I was going to use it tonight, so I popped a battery in and brought it along. I guess it has been sitting for too long or something, because when I switched it off, it usually wouldn't take me back to my proper un-boosted volume. Sounded thin and super quiet. It started working here or there when I tapped it to the side with my foot. And the resonance switch wasn't really working. Anywhere other than the middle position and I got no sound at all. I was also getting used to a new pedal tuner that was a gift from the other guitar player, and now I realize why I always loved my old Boss TU-12's so much. Those things are really awkward for me to use. I have to get used to them. Man, this is why pedals are not for me. Too much monkey business for me to keep track of!

Anyhow, when I got home, I sprayed the thing with some tuner cleaner and moved all the switches and such around. Hopefully that will clear up the problem.

Just thought I'd VENT!!!!!!!!!
