Has anyone seen this page yet, and not laughed out loud at the bullshit on the bottom of the page, about him supposedly inventing (the idea of) pedalboard systems? My personal favorite is the black and white photos at the bottom of the page... 'yeah, that'll make em look old'

'And the controller on shag carpet, that'll fool em'...
'Oh, and no one will notice the modern surge protector (power strip)'...

Five-hundred bucks says he shot that short film of Trey's "backup rig" several months ago, not back in '95 or '96.

Typically, I would doubt that scenario, but we are talking about one of the biggest douches on our planet, so....

who's bob bradshaw and why is he a douche?

He is a douche that is making some pretty good cash doing what he does best however. How many of us can actually say that. I did not understand at first why he does not sell his stuff separately (or rather make it more available), but then realized it makes sense as he can custom tailor each piece in the system to meet the needs of the customer as well as work on his own terms (not getting overbooked etc...). I bet if you have the money he returns the phone calls and is probably a good businessman. I would also bet he gets a million emails about other artists rigs and how much they cost etc... Can you imagine the questions he must have to field over and over again?

That said, I did notice how in some of the vid's he was quite simply... kind of a dick. Specifically the one where he is helping the guy with the wet/dry/wet.

I would not mind having some of his knowledge though.

It's true, 'keeb, none of us have farm animals.

cactuskeeb · April 02, 2010, 02:55:08 PM

I'm agreeing with what I think he said before you modded him...

Seriously, you guys justifying Bob don't have a moo; the man is a bastard.

Cute hair Bob.

I don't think there's any question that this is the most obscene picture a human being has ever had taken of themselves. Someone should burn all copies of it and never speak of it again.

I agree. I think there's no doubt this photo was taken the day before Grunge broke through into the mainstream. I mean, that hair is literally the very height of late eighties, early nineties hair metal excess.
