GMC Forum _ CHILL OUT _ Opening For Duran Duran

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Apr 20 2012, 05:07 PM

Hey guys! This is a bit curious but I would like to share that Cirse will be opening two shows for Duran Duran here in Argentina. The shows are in the same stadium that we played with Paramore. The combination is a bit weird (or not, who knows) but everything helps! and it's always amazing to play on a stage like this one:





The shows will be on May 4th and 5th.

Hi guys! I'm preparing everything for today's show! I would like to share a switch that I did for this one... (and I think that forever tongue.gif).
I took my Fernandes Monterrey Seymour Duncan pick ups and installed them in my Gibson Les Paul Studio... These ones are alnico pick ups and I love how they sound with the Mesa Boogie. The difference is very important, I'm enjoying my new sound. Another little variation that I did is to change the tube bias from my amp. Now it sounds more clear and powerful. By the way I tried the amp with EL34 tubes and I think that I'll go for them in the near future.
