What are some cool foot pedals to apply to bass? Stuff that does distortion, stuff that does wierd things? Stuff that does...?

I've been wanting a Spirit SX... It seems perfect for my needs. I sure wish I could find one at that price, though! Sorry, I advertised that sucker all over the place about 8 months ago (tapeop, ebay...). I don't know if you're familiar with digibid.com (you probably are), but that's were I got it....

This is a phenomenon that exists in other geographies and times as well. I remember my band playing the Uptown Bar in mpls in the late 80s/early 90s. Basically, you're playing to a bunch of musicians who are mad that they're not touring (I know, I affected the attitude many many times myself). They ...

He probably won't respond immediately, he's doing a few shows right now in the east with Alan Spa... (the guy from Low).
