Fractal Fanatic
Found this on audiofanzine.fr today, and decided to translate, I thought it could be the beginning of a funny thread..
Yes ! Finally you bought the amp of your dreams, the one of your preferred guitar hero. You did yourself a bit pleasure, maybe a bit too much, and know your amp is too powerful when :
Your roomwalls are coming down when you just touch the volume button
Every time you switch on your amp, light is going down
Your electrical company's invoice has been multiplied by 3
You need a massing therapy after each concert
You need to see an ear doctor after each concert
Your group's fellow members ask you to lower volume and you respond "What ?!"
You need to screw rolls under it in order to be able to move it
You need to ask help from a group member to transport it
You already once put it at full volume and lost conscience
Your neighbour relations are getting bad
...and relations with other members of your band
...and let's not even talk about family members
Your amp's potentio meters are at eye level when you're standing up
Your band's drummer had to buy a PA to be heard
Your amp was delivered with a roadie
You had to make a hole in the wall of your room to enter the amp as it wouldn't pas through the door
You just need to switch on the amp to heat your room in wintertime
Your volume pot goes up to 12
Your band's sound engineers tells you it's not necessary to mice your amp on scene
You try to persuade your drummer to play harder and your bass player to change to a 1200W all tube amp
You replace your EL34 tubes by stadium projectors
Your Wallmart furniture is vibrating just when tuning your guitar
You discover yourself searching on the internet the synoptics of the amp in "Back to the future"
You think that Motorhead is an acoustic blues band
Please complete....
