I tried it through a decent Marshall combo then through the cube because I tried the other pedals on the cube. Do they let you take things back?? I want to change it for a Tubescreamer or something
Ah fair does - and thank god for that I've seen so many people play things through the Cube and go "Wow, that sounds great!"... weirdos.
No idea about their returns policy I'm afraid, but I should think you'll be able to exchange it at least - us musicians are fickle folk after all, so they must get a lot of people changing their minds about new gear.
I'd also say don't get a Tubescreamer if you don't have a valve amp. They have one very useful purpose, beyond that they're useless - Boss useless. Also, look about on the 'net for discussions about TS-707s and all that nonsense - a lot of the cheap TS clones are actually exactly the same pedal internally. Tubescreamers are made from cheap nasty bits and massively overpriced, so the cheap nasty clones can be the same pedal for a reasonable sum.

Ahh my amp is a beauty - Laney Supergroup from the late 60s/early 70s... The same ones Iommi used. Yeah he used 6 of them at the same time, but ya know...
Wasps. Sodding things, whenever I'm holding a beer, which is most of the time, they dog my steps everywhere. At an outdoor gig last week they got so maddening I ended up abandoning the marquee and playing wireless in the bushes. It's no good saying "ignore it" when the evil thing is clambering over your face.

My random irritation for the day is people who just can't keep out your fucking business, and by doing so cause you to enter a world of shit. Usually with a big bill attached.
FUCK YOU, NOSEY OLD BITCH WHO RUNG THE COUNCIL AND HAD OUR VAN TAKEN AWAY FOR NO REASON.
I wish you a broken limb, anal incontinence and cataracts. _________________

Yes: she's a shit puppet with no life, who will hopefully die very soon. The real reason, as far as I can ascertain, is that she didn't like the look of it.
Yes folks, you too can have a fully taxed and insured vehicle parked legally on the road outside your house, but heaven help you if it has a bit of rust around the wheel arches and some chipped paint on the side! Two phonecalls and the council will come and remove it, then charge you £105 for the privilege. _________________

Can't you bill her for it as there was no actual requirement for the removal of the van? IT is due to her incompetence that it was moved in the first place. I would write a bill out and p[ass it on to her by hand and see what she has to say.....even if you get no money you will embarrass the fuck out her and hopefully give the old bint a scare (possibly leading to a stroke or heart attack...haha). _________________ -one person's terrorist is another's freedom fighter-

Find out what car she has and get that taken away. Then do a fart in her letterbox.

The BBC coverage of Reading, I have just been watching the Tenacious D set and they are showing women get their tits out. Not that I don't like tits, I just find the view that girls on people's shoulders should get the breasts out disgusting, let alone the BBC fucking showing it. _________________ -one person's terrorist is another's freedom fighter-

Being denied entry to Liquid last night because we were wearing trainers. The truth of it was, the bouncer was slightly pissed off that each pair of trainers probably cost more than his whole outfit did, I was seeing in triple vision and looked slightly on the rough side. To top it off, we got a black cab from the train station to Old Catton, the knob decided to go a completely stupid route to get more money out of us. We got out on North Walsham Road as the meter was at £10 and I wasn't prepared to pay anymore.

As far as i know, Liquid has the same dress code as alot of the clubs in the country-You can pretty much wear what you want as long as its not Denim or trainers.
You can't blame the doorman for not letting you in-He's doing a job, and he has been told not to allow people in who aren't complying with the dress code.
