It's been quite a while since we have posted on this blog. I will try to be more on top of it in the future. Blogs have to become a habit to be part of your normal rotation of the internet. Nostalgia has been writing more music and should have some new ones by the next show we play. We will be playing for Mini Bike Winter. Details soon.

Nothing, Happy Now!

2nd Annual 2piece Showcase DUALITY

This will be the 2nd DUALITY that I have put together. This year it lands a day after my 35th birthday so i will double it up as my birthday party.
PlanB hosted it last year also. I hope that they will continue to work with me on this showcase.
An edit to the show that the flier does not represent is that Lasers for Eyes will not be performing. Instead my good friends from ForkBomb will be dropping into the spot.
This showcase has become something that i look forward to and plan on doing every year. I really like seeing and hearing the different types of music that come together in 2piece form. The 2piece band has a simplicity to it. Sometimes raw, driven, epic, noisy, simple, direct, and to the point music come from just 2 people and their instruments of choice. This is what the showcase is made to spotlight. If i have ever asked you to go to anything else, this would be the one i wouldn't want you to miss.

This is next.

Lots of shows lately.

It seems these things are back to back lately. Everyone is coming in from the nice summer days and out of the rain of Portland winters. The good thing about that is it brings the people together, indoors, for shows. The "scene" picks up a bit and bands like us get drawn into it. It gives us a chance to roll out new material, equipment, and test the boundaries again. Details for this show are a little hazy but we jumped on last minute. I may be piggy backing on the sound for Plan B this night and in the future maybe pulling a few nights running it here and there. I sure hope so. It would be nice change to do something i enjoy and believe i am good at for work.

Last nights show @ the Megaton House

Last night was the first outing with the, "new" equipment to play shows. Everything seemed to be going fine and then equipment failure. The 2x15" cabinet i have wasn't able to handle the volume and i burned up those speakers. It seems that it should have been able to handle it. I was driving them with the Phase Linear 700b and that claims to be 350 watts a channel. The cabinet was 400 watts @ 8ohms but notice i say was. I must now replace the burned speakers. This time to be certain that it can handle it i will double the wattage up to 800w @ 8ohms. This should make certain that this never happens again.
For those of you who caught us, sorry for the technical problems and i hope you enjoyed the set anyway.

Amp cabinet done.

Fans installed, preamp, and Phase Linear 700B
