I saw the Pixies the other night. Great show. Best I’ve been to in quite a while. As with any good show, I came home inspired, and not just musically. Also hardware-ily. Or something. See, they had these cool bass pedals I have long lusted after. I wish it was as easy as shopping Moog at Musicians Friend, but unfortunately it ain’t. Yeah, Moog is the primary maker of these crazy awesome bass pedals, though I have seen one or two knockoffs. They’re just so super cool and they let a simple dude like me create his own bass lines with one agile foot while rockin’ out on the guitar and mic. The Pixies bassist used them on one song while playing a counterpoint high bassline on her actual ax, but I know I could do so much more!
