Yup, I still love them. Just saying not the most impressive light show I've ever seen. I need more than just violent flashing.

You don't understand until you're there while its happening dude. Trust me, its amazing.

Tool has an amazing light show too.

Fuck. FUCK. :lol:


I remember hearing before he apparently doesn't even know much of anything about lighting, he just know their songs really well. :lol:

...it's kind of depressing to realize I'm not a good enough a musician to play the lights.
Misplaced priorities and squandered opportunities.

Shit that is crazy... I thought for sure they had the lights triggered by the kick drum or through midi or something.

I wonder what kinda mix he gets through his monitors lol... probably mostly kick.
