  1. Can you say which one it was...or will someone sue you? I might have to sue myself Www.facebook.com/seedsbandofficial
  2. Let me give you my perspective from being on the inside one of these bands. Basically there are two of us (out of four) left from the original band in the 60s. There were the remaining 3 of us, but our guitarist is in pretty poor health and it keeps him from traveling to shows. We get hassled about being a cover band by promoters most probably as our lead singer and most famous member of the group passed away about 10 years ago. He was still performing up to the night before he died. But frankly, he was a shadow of what he was in the day. Funny though, as he actually hand picked his own replacement about 8 years before he died. So there was a documentary movie made about us a few years ago and we started getting offers. Up until that point we really hadnt seen each other for 40 years. So what do we have? Well the guy that sang the songs isnt there, but most of the guys that played the music are. And since were not gonna have a dead guy singing, its as close as we can get. Most of the fans probably dont know our names but they do know the words to all the songs. So this is as close as anyone is gonna get to what our 60s shows sounded like. Funny though ... I have to remember to play drums using my 60s chops and try to refrain from playing with more modern chops. We often play with other survivors from the 60s and none of the bands still have all their original members still living. Musicians die young (I hope not) So it is what it is. I dont think anyone that catches our show walks away disappointed. We have a book of 5 albums of material and we dont play anything new as no one really comes to here anything they didnt already know from the past. Besides since no one actually buys records anymore its not like were gonna get another gold record .
  3. Which mistake is more prevalent, not pushing the button or not waiving your hands in the air? That said, their audiences are voting with their dollars I guess at a higher rate than musicians audiences are. So you cant knock success.
  4. You should try it while nothing is plugged into the input and see if you still get the pop. Its possible that the pedal is not causing the pop. If you still hear the pop then youll know for certain the pedal is the culpret.
