Things are happening with my band again. Our new drummer seems to be working out. He's having some personal problems, but aren't we all?
Our lead guitarist had a processor die on him, so he replaced it only to find out his 25-year-old amp was going as well. So the other guitar player/singer and his wife pitched in and now they have matching Marshalls.
And me? I just got me a brand-new (well, actually it's six years old, but it looks like it's hardly been played at all) Ibanez SR-505 Bartolini-pickuped active EQed 5-string. Not only is the thing a dream to play, but the sound is amazing! There are so many possible tonal variations that it's almost like having a built-in effects processor! It may be months before I figure out what sounds I want to use on what songs.
And she looks good too! Just ignore that ugly guy she's with. Some girls have no taste.
