[@HARwinsOUTagain]

He’s got a point. To non musicians in the crowd, they won’t be able to tell the difference between amp sims or if a certain pedal was or wasn’t used.

[@dickdanson]

He is spot on, the crowd doesnt come for the tone. As long as its decent enough for the vibe of the song you are fine

[@wildersparks9161]

Nah, people like music to sound good. Maybe not Underoath fans.

[@jayleomac]

@@wildersparks9161 yup. the fact that this guy thinks running around like an idiot is better then tone says a lot. i understand. but how BORING

[@kayakchrispy]

Appearance is so much more important… Those shorts are functional too

[@OhanaFilms]

I’m fully hooked on simulated amps & cabs. They sound great for practically no money.

[@Ottophil]

I’m hooked on real amps and cabs they sound great and ive got the money

[@OhanaFilms]

@@Ottophil But I can play my setup without making anyone suffer through my playing.

[@docmcbungas3303]

I don't have a guy to flip the switches for me, but i get where hes coming from. Whatever makes it enjoyable for you i reckon

[@stevefaure415]

Whatever works for you, obviously. But the questionably-dressed mustache dude is kind of saying one thing and blowing smoke out the other end. He's still a tech geek, he's just a lazy tech geek. If you want to strip it back you have a Tele and a Fender Deluxe Reverb and that's about it, along those lines. Or a Jr. and a Marshall or a Ric and a Vox. Endless wonderful, evocative music has come from the time-tested guitar-into-amp configurations.

[@Anthony-pq4vr]

Seems like he's honest about being a lazy tech geek. He's not lying and pretending thats not what he is lol

[@Syklonus]

Don't confuse laziness with convenience.

[@devonlindsay5784]

Tone is absolutely so important! For someone to pay top dollar to come see your show, you better be putting out professional level guitar tones. FOH sound crew don't always do a great job with the mixes/etc so you can't rely on them to do a "good job". I get why he's doing this but from a fellow a musician, it just ain't it.

[@glennsatt]

People are going to be furious about his opinion and he style of dress lol.

[@RolandSpecialSauce]

We can tell that style and tone isn't his thing.😂

[@glennsatt]

@Roland Special Sauce as a stocky man who loves his dive shorts, I can say it's not for everybody lol.

[@lavender_oni]

So this is what happens when emo guys get old...

[@jayleomac]

"We went digital. We even were able to kick our other guitar player out and just run backing tracks to save money."

[@michaelclinejr.4636]

Without knowing the situation, I wondered if this had something to do with it. I mean, it’s probably not as profitable to tour the big band anymore.

[@jayleomac]

@@michaelclinejr.4636 100%. I read he had issues with the singer and stuff. so easy choice to save money. he doesn't write or record any of the music. he's a player, so they figured they'd fire him and go digital. it is a business at the end of the day.

[@bryanbaez4412]

@@jayleomac which singer , Spencer or Aaron. Also do you mind sharing the source ?

[@jayleomac]

@@bryanbaez4412 spencer from what i remember. i have no idea what it was from, just a video about him being kicked out and some sources said hes had issues with some of the members. I say hes the lucky one. that band is just gunna be grinding shit shows and tours just trying to make a living in the coming years.

[@bryanbaez4412]

@@jayleomac i Believe they all have multiple sources of income so I’m not too sure about the frequency of touring increasing but it was def a stinker move to boot James.

[@JSession]

So pretty much just stick to your favorite guitar

[@impersonalbrand2513]

[@NewElGatoDany]

Jamie hyneman plays guitar in underoath?

[@chaz32]

Piped in backing tracks, digital amp models and click tracks... Why might bands have moved away from rack gear and artificial embellishments in the first place?

[@mrbigg7255]

Kiss thinks the same way. David Lee Roth’s band sounded way better than kiss when they opened up for them.

[@ernied.sanchez8942]

Live he is 100 percent right. But recording I wise a disagree

[@Skink303]

I’m not listening to a damn thing a grown man in short shorts and a tucked in Hawaiian shirt has to say.

[@fredmanto]

Fragile

[@PizzaSpaceman]

Why the fuck does it matter? It's his opinion. He truly doesn't give af yet you care enough to comment on this video.

[@thomasmoroiu]

The virgin Skink303 vs the chad Hawaiian shirt

[@nohayguitarra]

Someone got to tell this to Eric Clapton :) do you guys, also know what doesn´t matter!? Volume. Last concert people where saying to me "Man, your guitar was toooooo loud!" I just said: "Hey, volume doesn't matter!!!!" : :) :) just a opinion . . . everyone has the right to have their own . . .

[@s.w.matteo6679]

These are the worst kind of Rig Rundown.

[@rareform6747]

NO !

[@Alfredo78666]

This is what live music is all about. A couple of hundreds for a pedal? Getta f*ck of here, his guitar is cheaper!

[@MothmanCold]

All of this is just ugh

[@misterknightowlandco]

Does anybody just plug a guitar into a damn amp and go anymore? I’m not a modeler I dig that he just mods shyt to use but axe effect?
