it occured to me that i've not heard this pedal so i went to find a youtube demo and what did i get?
someone using a scooped mid-high gain sound, as his base sound for the demo.
some twat with a beard who was 90% natter natter and 10% annoying wanky playing. also using an overdriven sound for his base sound, fuzz loves cleans you dolt i don't want to hear your head's overdrive.
the good old guitar strings louder than the amp because it's recorded with a webcam.

* Apart from fuzzfaces - they tend to sound better through amps on the verge of breakup.

Just curious, what's wrong with the Ramones?

It's like quicksand at this point, the more you struggle, the deeper you bury yourself.

sorry that was a typo. my INERNET lingo is a bit off. i must admit, i would be lying if i said i owned any Ramones records or said that the Ramones were my favorite punk band from that era.

Fair enough. I only asked becuase it seemed to turn you off that he had a Ramones shirt. Wasn't sure if it was the fact he was sportin'a band t-shirt or if you really disliked the Ramones.

honestly. it wasn't that he was wearing a Ramones shirt (which, whether that is a punk rock cliche or not is debatable...) but the fact that he was rocking it w/ a flannel shirt & a baseball cap that really didn't match. i think you could say would be circumspect fashion-wise.
actually. it was the Ramones shirt that was his saving grace. IMO. it definitely stuck out in my eyes. that i used the dealmaker/dealbreaker usage wrong was really not the point.
capiche???

Haaa...right on. I think I'm rocking a flannel (in fabric not pattern) and Clash shirt in my avatar
I have a very deep love for flannel. It keeps me warm.

The Ramones are really, really boring. They're like the AC/DC of punk. Some of the stuff was good but there was way too much of the same thing.

I have a very deep love for flannel. It keeps me warm.
but wearing it open like that? if you were concerned w/ warmth you wouldn't wear it open. (& you'd also wear a sweater over it...)
but yeah i am not the fashion police. i am just giving y'all yet another reason to level ad hominem attacks & mudslinging at me. so fine, par for the course...
now that Clash. now were talking!!! i actually OWN Clash records & tapes...
