    I actually met this dude at a petrol station in Rozelle Australia when their van pulled in for cigarettes and I was at the ice cream fridge and he asked me which ice cream is popular here in Australia and I told him to try the splice. Which is what I was buying. I think he found me approachable because I was wearing the misfits t shirt.

      +Rennerp and that's the good thing about music. To each his own. If we all liked the same thing, it would be boring. I'm like Mesa, and the Peavy 5150 amp myself. Only artist I like that plays Randall currently is probably Michael Amott. Some people I don't care for are Scott Ian and Kirk Hammett. Good at what they do, just don't like their tone. But I'm a firm believer in its in the artist, not the machine. 🤘

    For some reason the timing at the start always kills me, it’s definitely 4/4 but the intro leading into the verse always catches me a beat off. Weird... I’ll stamp the time where Jim begins his sequence but Jay comes in with the fill like a beat later- 1:12

      Stupid Idiots got a method of deciphering it? I can always find it but it always escapes me at the intro ugh. It’s more the trickery if the guitar than the drum beat
