@GraemeE I've never seen em, would absolutely love to though. A buddy of mine was telling me their show's like the hugest of gear nerd events... he said they had this modular shelving set up around the two of them, and crew would be loading/unloading various vintage synths into their reach for different parts of songs as needed. He then noticed that the sound booth was covered up with a tarp. Wondering wtf was happening, he went upstairs to look down from the balcony and saw that the band had brought a f'n Neve console with them and were running the whole band mix through it. Absurdly decadent, haha.

@popvulture I saw them on (what I think was) the talkie walkie tour - they were amazing
Sooooo much cool gear
There were vintage synths that were on stage purely because they wanted that sound during the bridge of one song
I don't envy the techs responsible for keeping all those old synths up and running throughout an entire tour though
-
Yeah man all that old gear is so finicky! Tech nightmare haha...

Did anybody else watch/listen to the Neal Brennan Blocks podcast with Homme? Man it was so good. Def my favorite episode of that show so far, highly worth checking out.

Knew the name, but was properly introduced to these guys when they supported Depeche Mode in the summer.
Possible Bob Vylan vibes…Idles maybe…fantastic in their own right, either way. -
The YouTube algorithm decided to show me this, and boy is it dirty.

@GraemeE I hadn't seen this, so f'n awesome. That song changed my life for sure, pretty much my favorite bass line of all time. Up there with McCartney's tastiest.

As per norm, I'm late to the party. I have just discovered Rick Beato on YouTube. I am loving his analysis, what-its and interviews. He's making me appreciate some of my favourite music a whole lot more....
