@theiranxican74129 ай бұрын
That's because we're in a badass time in our lives where we can literally take a guitar(s), a laptop (with a few of our fav plugins/daw), an audio interface, IEM system, and perhaps a midi controller giver take if you plan to automate your sounds or not. And all that shit fits in a fuckin laptop bag. Your stuff played in your bedroom can also handle a band setting in a arena. No micing needed! Fan-fuckin-tastic 🤘🤘 Now unless you wanna bring your power amp and cab for stage noise too is your prerogative lol 🤷♂️

I think for those of us Guitarists that are over the age of 30 like mike see where the real influence in his playing comes from. Some of you have hit the nail on the head. Mike is super influenced by the heavy music of 1998-2008. So bands like Deftones, Fear Factory, Sevendust, limp bizkit, linkin park, slipknot etc. believe it or not many of the nu metal era . That mixed with the newer Djent and Prog influences he has created a pretty cool style. I think a lot of us guitarists like to shun that era of TRL metal but the Mike has embraced it and put a modern spin on it. Makes him unique.
