Duckett's Public House, April Fools 2010, Portland, OR

I was cranky for this show, because I had homework and work early the next morning. I was also playing on a different rig than normal, because I didn't have the motivation to move the Orange monster. I was playing through just the Music Man HD130, with the Les Paul Peter Green guitar, a DOD Classic Fuzz pedal, Zakk Wylde Wah, and Two Timer Analog Delay. I was able to move my whole rig in 1 trip (versus at least 5 trips)! While my sound wasn't what I'm accustomed to, it was really cool to do something different. Lauren broke clear through her bass drum head about 1 minute into our set! How bad ass! Fortunately, David of Pluvial was kind enough to lend us his classic Rogers butcher's block-wrap bass drum (also the coolest looking drum set I think I've ever seen).paloverde
