Took 15 years to finally get a small rig with testicles.
I just can't do the Mainstage/Laptop thing, or Receptor, ROMPLERS.
Hardware and Scope, with a few quality Native plugs.

As soon as I saw the title on this post - I knew it was you

Looks like a great rig. Maybe just add one more short cable conduit to take up the slack from the foot pedals

Nice one, Jimmy !

What is the blue keyboard ? Midi or synth ?
And which host do you use for native stuff ? Standalone or some vst thing ?

When do you come to make a live in Paris ?

Physis K4 - check it out you'll be impressed, & for background check out discussion http://forums.planetz.com/viewtopic.php ... lit=physis

Yes, Jimmy live from the Eiffel with lasers would be a show to rival Jarre, and with a lot less back pain

Would love to be back in France again, been 20 years.

We only do big synth, big Hammond B3 sounding music pre MTV.
We are all in our 50's and hate MTV as it ruined the quality of Rock IMHO.

Music before MTV was lyrical, really well written, but MTV was "dance-dance Boov-Boov" and made men act like women.
Wimps like Billy Squire should have been publicly beaten for squatting around like some girl that needs to take a piss.

The band is appropriately named Men With Cocks, but we are forced to be polticically correct so we spell it "Men With Cox" and have posters of the famous cackling hens.

We also change the words on songs like Riders On the storm, we say take him by the gland, and we all grab our crotches, or Addicted to Love, we say "might as well face it, it's my dick that you love.".etc.etc
Lots of fun, drunk chicks, fights out back, all of the good stuff...

Nice rack Jim.

You are reminding me of the time a decade ago when I was in a trio with Simon Cox and Angus Diggs. My surname is Freer, so they were suggesting "Freer Diggs Cox". I was like "meh, bit Crosby Stills Nash, no?" so we went with "Average Touring Funk Band" in honour of Bill Hicks. Or honor, if you like

Nice setup.

Is that a Solaris??

you got any You Tube vids posted?

Do you play in or around Nashville?

Yeah ! A video ! Where is it ? Want to watch & listen you on live performance !

i love you guys....

In July it's a big shin dig where hundreds of boats come to the shoreline for festivities, so that video will be worth getting a copy of.
And yes Printers Alley this summer YaYa.

And Solaris is a HUGE part of the sound, what surprised me this year was how FAT Zebra is for leads, and the tracking/resonance of the low end was so good I retired my Analog Rack Mounts.

We do 2 Edgar Winter tunes, instrumentals, but needed a ballsy fat synth, w/ and w/o Wah Wah and Zebra is a great addition to Scope Modular Synths and FX.

I like my little FAT BASTARDS, much easier to carry around...

Frankenstein - whats the other one ?

Awesome! Please let me know when you start up. It's been so long since i've seen a decent live band. Nashville's a fun town and a short drive from the foothills area.

Sounds better than a Free Ride

Will do Yaya.
The band is tight, I was working in a money maker as I rehearsed with these guys for 11 months.
They were starving to play and on the first gig pre production paid off.
We choose songs nobody plays just to stand out a little more.

But I am sure eventually we will start sucking cock and giving folks some music for the less developed mind.

Sounds like a good show. Looking forward to seeing it.
