You mean the bass I used on the December 1984 video and for W&P recording? That was an ElDegas, Fender copy which I purchased for $299 at Steve's Music Store. I gave it to Manipulator, and he still has it.

Hey Manip,
Do you actually play Blacky's bass or do you have a shrine set up in the back room with candles and incense(I'd also add a big Korgull flag)?

he he

yup, i do play with it since he repaired it and tuned it for me

having quite a bit of fun playing it trough the "brown effect" Ibanez UE405, compressor, chorus, eq, analog delay.

i can play blitzkrieg bop almost entirely, and little bits and pieces. I play my own version of "voivod". he tried very hard to teach me, but i'm a hopless case.

i just have a deep and enduring love for the music and the gifted who craft it. I happen to be lucky and witness wizards all the time.

eh, can't blame me for that can you ?

What December 1984 video?! The "Voivod"-promo clip (I've never seen it myself, only read of its existence)?

Yah, what december '84 video? And why dont I have it? *stares at JY*

Actually, i think i may have that Jonquiere show (mislabelled as '85), cuz there's the white bass there, but it's not used.. It,s on a rack behind Blacky. And december '84 was also one of the two Morgoth Invasion shows (Dec. 21st and 22nd, i think), the set and the sound on both the morgoth invasion tape and the video are very similar. So maybe the audio was recorded the first night and the video the next day? The video isnt complete tho.. I think just 60 minutes.
