I've seen some really heavy bands using IEM but with small, 30 watt guitar amps, they have no problem getting loads of feedback.
Personally, I quite like having a big cab behind me at serious volume. I'd rather play with amps.
This was my first attempt recording. A good bit of sludge metal. Recorded in Reef's practice room by their tech.
Played in one live take with a hangover. I don't think they know we used their place.
I'm sadly no longer with the band, I regret leaving but I'm going to watch them play Saturday night.
They only want free speech when it agrees with them.
They also don't think free speech should have consequences. I once explained this to a work mate that if I insulted his mother and he punched me in the face, then I have used my free speech and experienced consequences. He seemed to get it then and agreed that consequences can be deserved.
