pop gestapo shot a rocket divine
sock it to me baby rocket rocket 69
so many dynamos so little time
rocket 69 rocket 69
blixa blista is a social disease
the way it fits her makes a man out of me
663 the home of the free

shakin ass sucking gas i will smash guitars
dont applaud im a god not a superstar
i'm full of beer and i'm hung like a steer so come on baby climb on
just give me something full of metal and steel
makes me upset gets me wet makes me bleed
we're on the air god if youre there send us a sign

super cupid showed her stupid tattoos
the head of elvis and it said born to lose
and on her ass there were a couple of screws
a screaming eagle a bottle of booze
a kamikaze nazi countdown from mars
a funny banging sound i found by hanging around in bars
31 flavors and my favorite scars
a suicide note i found in my coat

(full of beer and i dont want to hear you honky honky tonk song)

Bump! Come on folks, somebody must know these.

Real god of thunder sound!! Something similar did it Josh Homme in Kyuss stuff; he gets into a bass amp but I read somewhere he tunes all strings two steps below and drop the E string down to C

I play through a fender deluxe/hot rod 40w 12 inch then take a line from pre-amp out into an old trace elliot 7 band graphic 15 inch. This gives me a fat dirty sound with loads of bottom end. We don't have a bass player and at live shows folks always say 'who's triggering the bass lines'. The answer is there's no bass lines being triggered it all comes from my guitar sound. I use no effects pedals, it's pure and simple. All our recordings are done with this set up, no overdubs just one performance. I play drop D tuning and set the graphic up real heavy on the Trace Elliot.

I'm using a Fender Pro Jr. that is good for playin' at home,and I'm thinkin of changin' its speaker, now that Celestion starts to build the 10 inches version of various Greenback,Blue,Vintage30 etc.(I guess I'll check a "Gold")
I often hear to talk about guitar models,or fuzz and stomp effects,but the amp is the other 50% of your sound.So I'd like to know some impressions about in your experience.

really 'Glad' that i stumbled Onto this!! had a 'X' take-Off with a BUNCH Of my Guitar stuff!!
Yeah, The B*t*h should DIE! ..But that's a subject for another forum...

discuss discuss!!
FANKX & Cheers

Well like I said, I just know it as a story but it was a good enough story that they decided to apply it to Little Walter. But Little Walter never personally went through that. Sonny Boy Williamson had a few Chess Records releases but I hear that he's not part of the movie. Neither is Bo Diddley and he had bigger hits than Muddy Waters. Did they bother to have Howlin' Wolf?

Nah, that was really a Sonnyboy Williamson incident. And I really have no idea if it ever took place. But the story is, after the original Sonny Boy died in the 30s, a harmonica player named Rice Miller took the name...he had his own radio show (sponsered by King Biscuit Flower) while he was still living in the south and had quite a few blues hits after moving to Chigago. Rice Miller was also the same guy who went to England and was backed by the Animals and the Yardbirds which someone had the smarts to record.

But somewhere early on before any of that happened, someone else was going around doing gigs as Sonny Boy Williamson but again, it wasn't because he was trying to steal something from Rice Miller, he just had tghe same idea to take the name as the original had died in the 30s. If the guy ever was taken down by Rice Miller, I don't know.

I let the inaccuracies slide in order to simply enjoy the period re-creation and to listen to that music in that context. One inaccuracy that bugged the shit out of me, though, was the guy playing Leonard Chess looking like a guy from the 90s who showed up in the 50s. The other characters were dressed and coiffed appropriately, but not the main character.

It was like when Happy Days characters started having 70s hair in the late 50s/early 60s.

Speaking of historical accuracy, did Little Walter really shoot a guy who was pretending to be him?

Somewhere in the forums someone mentioned a garage related lyrics page and someone actually has come close to putting up a lot of good songs, including "Where You Gonna Go" (wow that song is tough) try here: http://webrock.free.fr/U/unrelatedsegments-whereyougonnago.txt Mal Thursday said:

I'm looking for the real lyrics to the Unrelated Segments' "Where You Gonna Go."

I sang some gobbledegook on the Malarians' 1986 recording of the song, and want to get 'em right on the reunion tour.

try this site. My friend sent it to me as a great source for my themes (and to make sure there are no swears if I play them over live air)- http://www.leoslyrics.com/

I work at WFMU, which is a freeform independent radio station here in the NYC area.  It also have a great world presence as well on the web.  If you are interested in having your band's music played at the station, where there are some GREAT shows, let me know!  I can get your music to the right people!  

I went through the site and found the following contact info:

Don't know anything about it but there was a website http://www.soundofthesurf.com/ Hope that helps a little.

I found a site about this movie dedicated to the surf music around the world featuring lots of actual bands..who can tell something more about it?

The Raconteurs - Steady as she goes

I recently bought the Skinface fuzz from these guys ->http://circuitbentlasergun.com and apart from a little hassle finding the sound i wanted, I must admit i'm pretty satisfied with it considering being a real budget pedal.. Next one i buy will be a Vox Tonebender!

Yeah why isn't it cheap to make garage music anymore? It's way too expensive to get a Bee Baa or Maestro, Tonebender, Fuzzrite etc. The cheapest cool looking one I know besides making one would be the Ashbass Fuzzbrite. But $115 still isn't cheap to me. I thinks that's what the price is.

I don't know why some company like danelectro won't fill this obvious void. It can't be that hard to make say a simple fuzzrite clone, or maestro clone with silicon to cut the costs a bit.

I'm going to try to make one soon. Most likely a fuzzrite.

My idea of fuzz guitar sound is always been the Stones "Satisfaction" intro that all say it's done with a Gibson Maestro Fuzz.I've never found this rare relic,so I try different kind of fuzz but most have a Hendrix/Cream/Blue Cheer alike results.Many people say that transistors make the differences,the first fuzz as Maestro or Vox Tonebender used germanium transistor instead of silicon transistors employed by following fuzzes generation.I never tried the EHX Germanium OD but listening to some samples it seems to me havin' a good idea of fuzz, though it is very expensive.

Love the Big Muff, but never on guitar I use it on bass. The problem with them is they do tend to get lost in the mix live due to their big ass fat bottom end response but this is generally due to the sound guy not paying attention. They also tend to sound a bit compressed. You might want to try the different types that EHX offers. They're really big on reissuing the different types at the mo. The BeeBaa is a good suggestion but getting one cheap just won't happen unless yer one of lucky people who find cool stuff for nothing in pawn shops. You could look for a second hand fuzz face cheap on Craig list. Or you could build one from a kit if you can solder http://www.buildyourownclone.com/index1.html

once in a while there will be a guy who can build you one of these on craigslist cheap

get an acetone fuzzmaster or a roland bee baa
