D'oh! Sorry I did not credit you initially! My blunder.

Here's the original

Recent(ish), but not current! This was from '05. We stopped playing as a unit after the 20th anniversary show in January, 2006. It was a good run.

Good to see the TBW! is still noise-ificating...!

About Me
Arrived in B-ton the fall of 1985 to attend IU. Got into the music scene right away. Started TBW! (with others) in Spring of 1986. Worked at Karma Records, then the IMU, as well as various food gigs... Uptown, etc. Hung out with the WQAX/wfhb folks some, but never was a dj. Also spent much time at the NoBar in Muncie. I think I blended into the overall scene a bit, so was not high profile. I was usually there, however. Ran out of money and patience for school in the mid-'90s and moved, with TBW! bandmates, to Louisville, KY. It's pretty cool here and some people even like noise! I am currently a hair sylist at a mellow/crazy/punk/industrial place in L-ville, Kaleidoscope Salon.
What bands are you or have you been in?
In Bloomington: Non-U (1985), The Belgian Waffles! (1986-1996[2006]), Eleneki (1988-1990), MOE (1989-1990), Luna is a Moon, Too (1990-1994)

In Louisville: TBW! Sextet ([1986]1996-2006), Jet Jaguar (1996-1998), Teen Kills 3 (1999-2002), Mudflap (1998-2001), Read Right Thorns (2002), Mudflap presents: Wetspots (2002-2004), Project Red Book (2006-present), WWZ Trio (2007-present), Telstar 3 (2007-present), Hal Dolls (2009).

I've also played in numerous ensembles and project oriented units. (Hate Trip, Funnel Cake, ferret, KARK, Flexible Tigers, Clawdads, , Black Kaspar, Pirate Baby Nachos, Knitting Bear Trio, et al.)
What city are you from?
Louisville KY 1996 to present; Bloomington, IN 1985-1996; Jasonville, IN prior to 1985
Original Hometown

Hey, Matt. Just checking in with you. How goes it?

Heyo Matt - I added the 1987 Spud Zero Waffles gig to my playlist (& The N.I.D.S.). It ends with a pleasing audience free-for-all. If I knew how to embed the link to the audio directly here, I'd do it.

Hey Matt,
Sorry I haven't written back, yet. I did meet W. Walter at the drum-along. It was a good time, for sure!
Hope you're well...
-Sara

Hey, Matt, what's going on in your rockin' hair world? I'm still waiting for music to arrive in my mailbox!

There are a couple more Moe/w songs I'll put on too, just need to convert them from wma to mp3. In one of them, you tell us about your Aunt Mary reading you Aesop

This reminds me of what John and Glenn Hicks set up in the studio for their contribution to Velo-Deluxe. Except this times about three.

That's rad, but I don't think that guitar's gonna cut it.

ever consider having a compressor as the last pedal? I find it can nicely pasteurize the sound before hitting the amp, not always needed but can be nice for solos especially cleaner solos without much distortion.

The Electric Mistress died and I haven't replaced it. A little outside of what I typically do these days (guitar playing as opposed to noisemaking - not offense to noisemaking!). Bill, how do you use the EQ pedal? I know Dale Lawrence uses one, I ...
