The Spearhead              verse1       looking back when what we have today was all brand new       never done before or imagined by more than just a very few       following their dreams despite what others would say or do       to discourage their realizing their ideas when they broke through              prechorus1       then they hid their pessimistic faces proven wrong again       as the exceptional overshadowed the mundane              verse2       always thinking far ahead beyond the limits of the herd       though they offhand don't understand proclaiming it's absurd       'til innovation comes when creativity is stirred       and naysayers pretending that they never said a word              prechorus2       then they put down their wet blankets a while and stopped their silly games       but I'd still like to get to know their names              bridge       what if it happened that invention was received without obstruction       and with warm welcoming instead       how much the better that encouragement would spawn the new construction       and like a wildfire spread       going full ahead              verse3       pioneering through a world of skeptics and the doubts they wield       to boldly blaze in outstanding ways new trails in the field       with dedicated perseverant determination steeled       against all opposition that achievement be revealed              prechorus3       as the spearhead once again is brought to bear to drive it through       for the many to enjoy the efforts of the few       and where would we be without those special few              > Orville didn't care.

Kinda funny really.

That's less competition out there we have to worry about.              If you're doing it right, there won't be any competition, because only the       other ZOMBIES will be competing - you'll be far above that Lowest Common       Denominator!!!              > Ever watch a Miranda concert ?

In fact, I own an old Gibson 345 from the 60's that       > had a stereo plug. It was stereo from the git go.              I know some instruments have stereo outputs, but aside from having a nice       stereo signal to practice through headphones with, there's really no need       for it.              > Our stage sound is better in stereo.

They take all the stage mics       > and make a mono mix.              Stereo is nothing more than perception of sound using two ears, each hearing       a slightly different signal due to position from each other and factors such       as phase differences.              When I recorded the demos of the Originals I wrote, they all started with       mono signals and all I did was vary the level settings between left and       right channels as I mixed them down, and the result was a stereo recording.              > Because we generally work small to medium sized clubs, keeping things in       > stereo is doable, and sounds better.              Particularly in small spaces, stereo can be a most effective effect for       producing the illusion of a much larger venue.              And personally, I'm very fond of the "suitcase" model Rhodes electric       piano's stereo "ping-pong" tremolo.              > ....              > gotta run .... more later              I'm sure that was a while ago as I've only gotten back to replying now.              Ouisie              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
