Where on Earth did you get that?:
Around this time 10 years ago, the most important thing in my world was my band. I played bass guitar in a Newcastle based band called Gorillafish (yep, shame about the name) and to be perfectly honest, we were pretty darn good and getting better all the time. When we finally called it quits we had 3 different record companies interested in contracts and we were playing around New South Wales making better than decent money. Things were looking very, very positive. Unfortunately, some people in the band thought that we were already as big as U2 and they became so blinded by where we were (possibly) heading that they became impossible to be around. Amazing how even the slightest sniff of fame can turn people nuts. Anyway, it was great fun and the best thing of all was that it introduced me to my best buddy in the world - my wife.
After using hired PA systems and hired microphones for too long I bought this little fella to help me out. Hired microphones are used by plenty of people. Often people spit when they talk/sing. Hired microphones stink. Hired microphones stink so bad in fact that you feel like throwing up and therefore adding more to what is already a highly infectious collection of your fellow musicians DNA. So at least I know that this one only captured my DNA.
