what are your favorite ways to express and exercise your livity? for me... ini just got a porcelain teacup with a diffuser for loose leaf teas... been drinking lots of honeybush tea and green tea/matcha. also went vegan 4 months ago. next step for me is to begin some kind of daily physical activity ritual... oh, and of course, eating lots of ganja at night. sleep = wealth.by BZM - SNWMF Phorum 2013

- 7 weeks agoLast night I had the privilege of playing guitar in AL PANCHO's backing band! That guy has SERIOUS energy... some of the highest vibes I've experienced! Anyone here familiar with his music? I think he was one of Lutan Fyah's openers back in 2011 on a tour. He was practically doing backflips.by BZM - SNWMF Phorum 2013
When I saw them this time, they were using multi-FX units! Lead guitar player was definitely using a Boss GT-3. Rhythm player was using either that or a GT8 and a Crybaby. I was also surprised to see him playing his white Stratocaster and not the Goldtop!by BZM - SNWMF Phorum 2013
Might have been Old Robe, but I can't remember. I thought Jah Ova and Remember Jah are one and the same?by BZM - SNWMF Phorum 2013
Set list from the Portland show? anyone? They played "Jah Ovah"... was incredible.by BZM - SNWMF Phorum 2013

I wasn't calling anyone in this thread out in particular; mainly addressing Harrison's (seemingly) many detractors.by BZM - SNWMF Phorum 2013
All the guys whining about the sound of Harrison's voice: I've never heard him sing a flat note the three times I've seen them perform. Or a sharp one, at that. That's more than I can say for 95% of singers in live, LOUD amplified settings. His ear and his technique is impeccable... it's one thing to say his voice isn't your "thing", but there is no doubt of his tremendous abilitiesby BZM - SNWMF Phorum 2013

- 2 months agoI'm super pleased to announce that I will be playing guitar and skanking on the air, this last Saturday night of March! March 30... stay up past midnight, hear us (Fishbowl, a.k.a. my band play a 60-90 minute live set, as well as holding an extensive meds with the Phorum's own Ras Danny! We will discuss our own up-and-coming story of being a rising reggae band in the Pacific Northwest, allby BZM - SNWMF Phorum 2013
These guys are solid musicians.by BZM - SNWMF Phorum 2013
Did not know this was released... I gotta check it out, give thanks!by BZM - SNWMF Phorum 2013
(read this, guitarists!) - 6 months agoJust bought myself one of the "Rude!" bridge humbuckers... came out to about $206 after tax (!). These guys are a new brand... but as their site says, they have decades of experience - including Dave Carpenter being involved. A little backstory, Dave is the guy who worked for Gibson who was responsbile for some of their greatest custom runs... like the Stinger series '59 Paulsby BZM - SNWMF Phorum 2013
I wish guitar players like him had more articles, lessons, and things of that nature online, for people who are looking to really deconstruct and get into the details of reggae rhythm guitar!by BZM - SNWMF Phorum 2013

This is important to read too, as well, in opposition of Sensible WA's argument against the 5 ng limit... good to hear an opposing side!by BZM - SNWMF Phorum 2013
Seen... plenty of cool hippies out there like Ninkasi and Sierra Nevada that have successful microbreweries that make quality products, even breweries like HUB who specialize in organic ingredient-laden beers. Considering cannabis is essentially pure produce, the likelihood of "organic" and "pesticide/herbicide free" etc will be big selling points to differentiate different bby BZM - SNWMF Phorum 2013
Hopefully within a year they will develop a mouth swab test you can purchase yourself at head shops to test yourself. That is my hope, at least... I'm all for driving 'responsibly' if the tools to do so are actually available.by BZM - SNWMF Phorum 2013
I-502 will most likely pass... everyone I know is voting "Yes" (besides me, and only because of the messed up law enforcement provisions written in... like the part that allows the arresting officer's report to be used as ADMISSIBLE EVIDENCE in DUI cases! what the @#$%&!!!), even my father and other VERY conservative types are voting 'Yes' on it along with their Vote for Romney. But yby BZM - SNWMF Phorum 2013
Wasn't Bob Marley already alive at the time of Snoop Dogg's birth? How could he be a reincarnation of Bob, in that sense? Seems well-intentioned but I don't know how much substance there is to this 'transformation'... he might already be too far gone into Babylonian corruption.by BZM - SNWMF Phorum 2013
I-Wayne is one of the greatest performers in the reggae scene today! One of only a few "dancehall" artists I respect.by BZM - SNWMF Phorum 2013
