age of Axe Fx users?

[JWDubois]

Now if you had one tip for life to give a young'un like me, what would it be?

Be born to rich parents, be tall, lean, good looking, have great hair and an enormous penis.

Unlike me ....

Get yourself a GOOD wife. Notice I didn't say trophy wife, rich wife, wife with expensive tastes, wife with endless emotional needs.

My wife of 30 years has been the best thing that ever happened to me. And yes, she tolerates my gear habit very well (she's especially happy many amps have left the building since the Axe FX moved in.)

She is also one of the Axe FX's biggest fans - sez' my tone has never been better.

Get yourself a GOOD wife.

Where the hell do you find those?

I found my wife by putting an ad in the paper saying 'wife wanted'. I got a hundred responses saying 'here, have mine.' :lol

Great tips guys! Will follow through

 

[iggypop]

33... and you're right, can't lift that 4x12 and marshall head like +10 years ago.

I enjoy the fact that there are lots of old farts here...

I already consider myself one ;-)

I would imagine most of the djent crowd around here is early to late 20's, 26 here.

Maybe you should start a poll with age ranges

This djent thang is recent, isn´t it? When did it surface, the last 5 years? The first time I ever heard about it was here, from Clark Kent´s posts. I might be wrong, but I hear echoes from Sepultura Chaos A.D., and maybe Roots albuns, and early 90s bands like Helmet, there.

Hmmmm good idea!

The term "Djent" is relatively new, but the tonality and style isn't as new. Meshuggah pioneered it a decade ago or more. Periphery and TesseracT have refined it within recent years. As with all metal, you will hear the influences prominently.

Just turned 36.

although I heard the main attractions of axe fx because of periphery, djent isn't my thing. I like it but can't play it. I also can't stand the randomness (is that a word grammar police?) Or the danzig type squiggly weird playing on the high strings. I like me some good death metal. Melodic or not. Also I like red hot chili peppers and some Joe satriani. Oh and video game music.

46. Not an Axe owner yet. I've been waiting for 2nd generation hardware. Now I'm just waiting for availability.

I'd like to thank all of you who funded the R&D of Axe II.

Love God. Love others.

Everything else will take care of itself.

Love God. Love others.

I agree 50%.
And as Stephen Stills used to put it:
If you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with.
