Lyle Watt - Slowdown (MonkeyFest 2011)

Here's a video of ''Slowdown'' from my set at MonkeyFest 2011. Had a great time at MonkeyFest - met some great people, and some cool opportunities presented themselves. There's plenty more videos to come after this one...

Thanks to Mark McGuigan for the video, and to Rob Chappers for inviting me to MonkeyFest in the first place.

Hey, just wondering what FX you're using? Is the distortion coming from pedal? Amp?

[kirkhetfieldtrujillo]

@andrewkennedymusic The distortion is coming from a pedal and from the amp. The JVM (not sure which model it is) was set for a crunchy medium gain overdrive, and I used my Fulltone OCD to boost that, so I had a bit more control over my gain levels.

@guitarbridgecleaner Who's teaching these people that there's something wrong with wearing your guitar high?

[kirkhetfieldtrujillo]

@outtacastatv I'm all for constructive criticism. I welcome it! It's one of the reasons why I post videos on Youtube. I just failed to see anything constructive in your criticism. You just told me what you didn't like about it, with no suggestion of how I could improve it. Unfortunately, you've had to resort to childish name-calling, so any constructive criticism you may have had is now worthless in my eyes.

Both Eris Johnson and Tom Morello have their guitars slung high, and they're two of the coolest people on the planet. Just play in whatever position feels most natural I say. Besides, you're less likely to get tendonitis having your guitar high.

@jclp81 It's not down by my ankles, so it's not ''cool''....
