I played well.
They played well.
But the BL was non-stop talking, not as outrageous but even looked a bit like the Nuge.
And I realized as I arrived I had auditioned at the same house (nice, finished basement music room) about 10 years ago with the same BL, different band.
Drummer was good, looked like the guy in Gov Mule but shorter at about 5'5" with slightly bigger arms.
The rhythm guitar player played a synth-equipped Strat through one of those digi-Mustang amps - he could play, but that amp sounded like razor-blades being run though a pair of bright chorus pedals. He only knew their stuff and surf tunes - didn't even know Stones basics.
BL played a SG and had a really nice black-face DRI, with one of those new Boss GT 1000.7859 POS digital wanna-be Headjob/Rectal things; for sound, see the above descrip - he totally ruined a sweet amp.
They gave me a Fender Rumble 25 and I'll be damned but I kept it at 12:00 and it kept up no problems - a EBS compressor and then a Bass Soul Food or Linden on at all times.
But the thing, the thing, the thing - my politics are 180 degrees away from those implied by their sly little test-jokes.
And they kept the un-opened 6 of Corona Light I brought, which is absolutely disqualifrying.
