I suspect there will be a plethora of delay pedals...

Will anyone be bringing a delay pedal ?
I have a few I can bring. I also have a Boss DM-100 if you would like to try that (from the 80's) I have a Boss GT-8 if you have any interest in playing with that.

Checked out Da Capo for the first time yesterday (looking for a decent prac space STILL). Cool staff and really nice digs, but my goodness there's some nasty echo-y stuff going on there. (Reminder to self - not a proper prac venue anyway)

Got my eye on an ideal spot (locale-wise) but damned if I can find any contact details for the place.




.....thread hijack over, carry on. :P
