The synth poo poo is to do with laptops and synths being full range sound sources. Ie a guitar is a mids instrument no matter what. If the synth patch you use for sound check is a trebly lead, then the next one (that you didnt soundcheck) is a bass, the sound guy is gonna have you eq'd all wrong.

The solution is byo soundguy.

Soundguys only understand guitar amps and snare. They will tolerate bass and kick drum, but beyond that forget it

This video rules and Doyle is pretty funny. He doesn't know any songs besides Misfits, is embarrassed to play in front of anyone without distortion, and his most important piece of gear is band-aids. The cool part is he actually builds poo poo.

She had come to visit me in New York City and I had to get her back on a plane to get her back on tour. We were starving and running around trying to get back to the airport and she said "if we can't find me something to eat, we’ll find something for you to eat." I told her "gently caress that I will never ever eat something in front of you that bothers you or disrespect you in any way ever!"

Ok so this is stupid music poo poo but not in a gear way:

Just saw Doyle (Misfits guitarist) play a set (no Misfits songs, his music is a hybrid of bad pantera and the 50s inspired swingy stuff that any sane person skips on actual Misfits records), the venue got downgraded from a 400+ capacity club to a 120ish capacity pub instead due to lack of sales. He's offering a 'VIP' package for £40 where you can meet him and get a signed photograph, as soon as the set was over he beelined back to his bus making zero eye contact with anyone. One of the support bands had a table with a dummy and a fake chainsaw that made the smoke alarms go off with its petrol fumes.

Was this in Dundee and does your name start with a B? Because I know someone who very recently complained about exactly the same thing.

Nope, Plymouth, other end of the country, thats amazing it happened all the way up there too. There were a few people waiting for the meet and greet by the bus.

Edit: my friends who were supporting for this date were jokingly offering meet and greets for £30, no takers but they sold a bunch of merch which was cool.

This is what he posted about the gig in Dundee:

quote:

DOYLE "(EX-MISFITS" in Dundee.

Well Dundonian Punk Facebook is fartin' on aboot last nights' gig so here's my esteemed opinions.

- Band sucked. As Andy Eddies put it, 'second or third rate metal'.
- No Misfits songs. The Euro tour was marketed as Doyle Ex-Misfits with the iconic and now ubiquitous Fiend skull used too... urk!!
He was never the vocalist or front man and besides, I'd heard fae Ant that the Brum gig had none of the golden oldies, so I was expecting that.
- I see that it follows that you'd put "Doyle (Ex-Misfits)" on the promo. He was in the Misfits, it's a fact. When in summer 2014 I was approached to put on Paranoid Visions with Steve Ignorant you bet your loving gleuteus I was tacking on "EX-loving-CRASS!" at the end of it. Did I disappoint anyone turning up to hear "So What" or "Shaved Women"? I really hope not, and I think not. It was all very well covered that it was PV songs with guest vocalist. I didn't use the Crass symbol on the promotion, and PV was in bigger font type than SI's name. You decide if last night's gig was false adv'ing/slightly misleading/totes kosh.
- VIP package incl a meet-and-grunt with Doyle, who did not say a word during the set, was £45. Punk or what?! But if you forked oot for that, I hope you enjoyed yersel. If I had it, I'd plough that £45 into four or five other gigs.
- Biggest gig in the DIY collective DMC's history so far. This wasn't big money bigwigs from elsewhere but local metallers taking a punt. Good on them!
- The vocalist appears to be trapped in a nightmarish world of trying to get crowd riled up - for his sucky metal band - boredly insulting and bashing the crowd - then reacting even more bombastically when the bored crowd want a song that doesn't suck (like a Misfits song!?! QED)
- The vocalist's best bit was by far when he didn't speak in between songs. (I've seen Captain Sensible's stage chat this year and I would love to listen to it ten times more than matey boy. AND THAT'S SAYING SOMETHIN!)
- Amazed that the vocalist was able to utter that [Scots] "speak that Caveman English", in the VERY Scots-speaking city of Dundee and nae haein ees heid an ees hands tae play wi :D

As a lifelong bidialectical & keen linguist I can point out that his Southern US speech is even more, er, relaxed than ours... not to mention inflected with Scotticisms! I didn't remonstrate gently caress all with him on the night, left it at "SOOK MA SHITE YE PRICK"
- The Eddies were the band of the night and no mistake.
- Ended up speaking to a law student about torts/delicts, and in thirst, getting signed in to Dundee Uni student union. We were given 30 mins to buy and finish drinks. 30! Two police were stationed at the smoking area, which was just fuckin bizarre. Which was the shitter atmosphere? Church during Doyle or the SU, pre-'ladyboys' 1am show? gently caress knows! We hosed off sharpish!

Back to Church in an hour for some olde-style Anglo Saxon-uttering folk metal - and deathened black, blackened death, black plague metal, whatever - and to see my old bandmate tear it up in DREKAVAC. Mon Ash Obscenities!

Gig #15 of the year as the first 3 months end - how's that for neatness?

A different view of the not-the-Doyle-show? Any questions? Slam them below, faster than the lead balloon that was the last band's set last night...

no lie, i completely thought those arctopus dorks got haircuts and a drummer until i saw the mudvayne talk in the youtube comments. i guess it's kind of a monkey/typewriter situation where if you have two terrible bands noodle enough notes eventually they write the same bad song

I remember years back BTA responded to someone saying their music is random poo poo with a like 10 paragraph breakdown of the structure and theory of one of their songs. It was the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever seen.

They are extremely talented musicians though, I won’t lie.

If you have a soundcard with multiple outs or multiple snyths it might be a good idea to send all your poo poo to different outputs. i.e one line for bass and one output for pads etc.
