SPLAWNILICIOUS video clip! *TO Live*

TwilightOdyssey

Darkness on the edge of Tone
A friend shot this video from our gig in NYC last night. The song is titled Long Day's Journey Into Night.

The lighting was really really dark at the venue -- Sorry, but it's very dark. However, the audio is quite good, so I thought it might prove to be worth checking out. Also, please note: I could not hear a blessed thing as we were using stage volume, and didn't have any monitors!!! :evil:

Guitar I used on this song = Cold Sweat/Trilogy Suite Gajic Custom, which I call the TOC 2. (Maple neck, ebony fingerboard, OFR)

My signal chain was: Cold Sweat > HBE Dos Mos as buffer > HBE CPR compressor > Splawn Quick Rod running at 1/2 power > Hiwatt 4x12. (The bass player, Joey described the Hiwatt cab as 'a hernia in a box' lol)

The other guitarist was playing a my VG-88 as a preamp, and a Behringer A500 power amp into a Marshall 4x12. I think the tone was suprisingly good, especially when combined with the godly Splawn.

From my vantage point, I will say that my tone was G O D L Y!! Muscular and edgy with the VHII, clean and VERY heavy metal with the Cold Sweat, and really killer with the Trilogy Suite (by that, I mean better than Yngwie! :) )

I hear ya but I don't see ya :D That's a rockin tune bro. Your band is very tight and your guitar is totally smokin in tone and style.

I turned the brightness and contrast up! Looks better :)

Other than wanting to hear PJ more, that was a very sick video clip. All your songs have the best titles... never a cliche in the TO camp, lol.

Couldn't see you at all... but damn, killer tone/song! Fits perfect, as everyone else said. Your band is insanely tight, as well.

Thanks for the positive feedback, guys!!

DSS, since this has been a hot topic this past week, you should note that I played the entire set not being able to hear anything besides myself. I had to strain to hear the drums, and then all those hrs of rehearsal both with the band and at home just take over.

Rainmaker ... yes, the song is short (for TO) and only has 2 verses, 2 choruses. Not a lot of vox compared to all the guitarring! :)
