episode 134: Ep. 134 - What's A Podcast? I'm Eight.


THE TONE JERKS ARE HERE!
They’re here! The Tone Jerks run a killer weekly podcast that we’re big fans of and we think you should check them out 

  • Give us a rundown on Jerk history. How did this all start? 
  • What’s your main rigs? We’ve heard from Brian in a previous segment (episode 120!), but are there any updates? Kyle, what’s your bass setup like?
  • Kyle - how do you afford to buy pedals all the time? Do you have a sell/trade budget you keep rolling money over into new gear? Or just out of pocket because FUCK IT?! 
  • Find the tone jerks everywhere! Instagram and facebook group!
