I have no idea what any of that means, save for the people's names.

Well, all of that is what allows them to fucking jam. I don't need to be a musician to think thats "kind of" cool.



Check this out:

Oh, I think it's cool...I just don't understand what a lot of it means. Like you said, if those diagrams are part of the formula for how they make such awesome music, then God bless it all.

i think it's really cool info, just to compare - they dont don't have elaborate setups

thanks

Very cool. Where'd you find this?

thats realy cool. its nice to see every single thing they use. i wish more band would have a picture a their full set up like this.

It's from 2002.

wow, they use some old guitars

and that video is fucking hilarious

and that's one quarter for you.

I love how simple Ed's set up is compared to the other guy's.

And i can't recall hearing Jeff using any of those effects on his bass?

seriously, ed needs his own touring guitar tech?....easiest job ever.....

I think he can do, just rather pay someone to do it for him. Like going to steak n shake at 4 in the morning. You could easily make a grilled cheese on your own at home, but you would rather pay the 2 bucks and have a mexican do it.

Can someone please explain to me what a banana fruit shaker is? Cuz it sounds awfully dirty.

and all i wanted to know is what drum sticks Matt uses.

How did this thread come up on your search then? Matt uses Vic Firth sticks. Smartass.

tambourines?

I didn't search, i came across this through browsing. I do think it's kinda cool, excuse me for not mentioning that. I just found it funny how there isn't one for Matt just because he's the drummer. More likely to be because it's as of '98, though.
Thanks for sharing

It was driving me nuts so I finally had to look it up. Apparently they're just what they sound like. Banana shaped shakers. They look like kiddie toys. When the hell has Ed EVER played one of these?



A 9-pack of juicy and delicious percussion!
