As i announced about two weeks ago, last saturday (19 of may) we, well my second band "Demons of Decay", played our first concert in this new line up.
It was a small nice club in a small nice village not far from my home.. We were the support band for "the Uprising", a befriended thrash metal band from an other village!
i guess about 30-40 people were attending, quite many for such a small concert in such a small location
we had really great fun and everything went as planned.. some mistakes were made during performing, but who cares.. it looked like the audience enjoyed it, that's what's counts!
i've found 3 cell-phone-made videos yet..
yeah some funny angle to film haha
the PA was somehow too small, it was almost overdriving all the time.. so next time, we'll bring a bigger sound system, for a more brutal sound!
for my second band (demons of decay..) i'm playing usually on a simple jackson guitar.. i even don't know which model it is
we're playing on baritone-tuning, it's 5 steps below standart tuning, death metal has to be very low and heavy
because i don't want to change the tuning on my main guitar (the ESP one) i've got this non special jackson from my friend.. put some thick strings on it and you can drop the sound
i never was a fan of jackson, i never found the "thing" behind them, even many, especially death metal-guitarists, really like jackson.. many years ago, my best friend also got a jackson and he couldn't imagine a better guitar.. so, maybe i just don't get it
the guitar i'm playing here has really nothing special, it does it's job, not less and not more.. the sound is also.. yeah you can use it, but i couldn't recommand it to someone, because i wouldn't know what to point out, there is nothing to point out
the stringposition is not very nice.. maybe i could make it better, if i want to, but it's sometimes such a frustrating work with this floyd rose... i'm just happy with the fact, that the tuning keeps in tone!
i'm not a real death-metaller, but for this band i try to be, so why not jackson? it does what it should, but i wouldn't get happy with just this guitar
