These guys are very cool! I saw them play in Milan and it was a great night. Una serata superiore, cos l sul 8/5/2004 per una notte divertente di ROCK! (A top night, so be there on the 8/5/2004 for a entertaining night of rock!)

Well Im not gonna go into this too far, we will play6 around with it...but these settings have been the same through our recordings and all our gigs, and have been effective... But soemthing wasn't right at the Tree... But anyway this thread should be about all the band in general, and so on... not just about cleartone!

The thing is that our settings on our ampos were exactly the same as the settings were the last time you saw us Tim, thats why we are not sure of the source fot he problem. Onstage our sound was pretty much the same as always... im just wondering if it was the off stage mixing that was the problem... But there aint much we can do about it now... The sound was meant to be beefy... Yeah I can see that... Strange thing about us is in practice we 'rock out' completely, specially me and wheeler (bassist - 'cleartonebass') and completely get into it, yet we all seem to go all conservative and 'toe tapping' when we have been on stage... Especially recently. I remeber a gig we played at kef in November, and we just let go... and loved every minute of it... yet we haven't done that at other gigs... I have a feeling that a few more gigs down the line we will come into our own..

Dont worry about it Tom, we will get our stuff together... We havent been around that long, so we have plenty of writing and experimenting to do! Hehe...Aye Ingram... the emo thing wasn't for us! So that won't be coming back! Aye we really enjoyed it... I thought on a whole all the bands did well, very good entertainment.

Aye thats what I was meaning, influenced wise than sounding wise... Bench are one of the closest bands I can think of thats all...Well to the names mentioned above anyway.

If thats the case, im looking forward to the debut gig. Ross, did you get my PM?

Right... well whatever keeps you happy

Sorry... Im actually completely lost... You were looking for bands who 'did' particular stuff, and we gave you a possible band within that mandate... What have beards and so on got to do with it?

no I cant say that they do...

Check out Bench for 'explosion in the sky' esque material

Hmm... well the are going on a European tour, or something like that... thats probably what they meant.

Looking forward to it... Should be a very good night! So all those with a free evening on Monday, get down to Moshulu!

Er... I dont think so guys. Aye im going down, and very much looking forward to it.

Bench Apraxia Normans Fetish Black Atom Xcerts Contra Hexagonal Pensioners Double Jack Funktastic Four The Score There are plenty of others Ive been to see and really enjoyed like Point of Origin and so on... so tis quite a hard question!

Aye Apraxia indeed were good - but I have to say that all the bands had a good night. I enjoyed Bench very much, I thought that Saturday was the best I had seen Apraxia play.... and Starfall...well lets be fair, they are different - they played a good set of very original material, their music is an acquired taste thats all... But hell I enjoyed the whole thing!

I didnt get a copy of it at the gig... Ill catch up with the guys and get one off of them! They indeed were ace on Saturday!

Nah man thaks to you guys, and everyone else for providing the great music... The poeple who came along would not have been dissapointed!

The Seymour Duncan Distortion pickup is a nice pick up, great for that heavy sound, but its also cool in clean. If you wanna get a serious heavy sound then look at pickups like EMG.

Aye thanks... Im looking forward to it

who knows... we will leave thta for the time being... Shall have a good jam and see whats what from there

Petrucci..... but hendrix knew how to write a great song.

nah captain toms i sperfect for me, Im often in there! hehe.

aye that sounds cool... Where we practicing?

saturdays aint the best for me right now, during the week sometime is cool

Ok well I have zlch plans through next week... So ope to suggestions for anytime then. Im on hols as well, so no worries, plenty of free time.
