Members guitarbilly74 Posted June 12, 2012 Members Share Posted June 12, 2012 So we were palyign at this studio tonight and it turns out Rex Brown (and Vinnie Appice) new band was playing in the room right next to us and we had no idea, I just thought the band next to us sounded really {censored}ing good. He comes out of the studio during one of our breaks and I instantly recognized the guy and started talking to him. Coolest mother{censored}er ever, he was hanging out with us for a bit, signed my bass player's bass and gave him some tips about tone and {censored}. Really down to earth, cool dude. I was so excited I forgot to take a picture with him but my bass player did, I will post it here once he uploads it. But {censored} man, I am huge fan!! I was stoked to meet the guy and even more stoked to know he's a cool mother{censored}er CSB!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I used to have dees one, but I sold it to another big Spector honk since I wasn't feeling the 4 string thing and I actually wanted something I could play... http://www.flickr.com/photos/bassplayermag/5358214795/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members guitarbilly74 Posted June 12, 2012 Author Members Share Posted June 12, 2012 Did ya get to meet Vinnie, too? Well, Vinnie lives just a few blocks away from me and he is always practicing and teaching at that studio so we already knew him well. My drummer bought a china cymbal from him a while ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members RSBro Posted June 12, 2012 Members Share Posted June 12, 2012 Personally I'm kinda upset he dropped the Arms of the Sun thing. The little of their music they released was very King's X/AiC-ish and sounded great. This is a pretty different direction, with KDH... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JoJo68 Posted June 12, 2012 Members Share Posted June 12, 2012 Rex is a friend of our band and our drummer is his best bro. We opened for KDH on a couple of texas dates. Great band and really cool dudes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 100 watt Posted June 13, 2012 Members Share Posted June 13, 2012 Got to see Rex with PanterA a few times. In '08 when I saw Down @ Nashville, Rex was out due to medical issues. His tech was filling in. Same with St Louis '09. By the time the 2011 tour came around, Rex was done gone from Down. (Say what you want..Pat Bruders is doing GREAT filling Rex's spot) Wish I coulda saw Rex play with Down. Love Rex's work & he's cool to watch play. Check out Down's Diary Of A Mad Band. Some good Rex live stuff in that home vid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
