I thought this was kind of fun:

Give her a chance to get started.

I'd be interested if anyone else has spotted anything using looping in this way which comes out as polished? Please share.

Dangerous things those loopers. At one of our gigs, I'd just launched into the guitar solo, and realised the vocalist was singing the chorus. He continued to sing it throughout the rest of the number, and carried on after we'd finished. I was just about to bury my guitar in the back of his head when I realised he wasn't actually singing. The plonker had accidentally activated the looper (something we never used) on his vocal effects unit.

Lol, excellent :)

Do you use it now, or did you just remove the button?

"did you just remove the button?"

I was for amputating his foot, but the rest of the band decided to move the pedal to the other end of the cable, so that the engineer had control.

Wise! :)

Did he not realise that he could hear his voice but his mouth wasn't moving??

BTW, Ed, Is it necessary to have the video autoplay? it's really annoying.

"Did he not realise that he could hear his voice but his mouth wasn't moving?? "
Yes, but as we never used the looper, he didn't know there was one - I think he thought he was being haunted.

"BTW, Ed, Is it necessary to have the video autoplay? it's really annoying."
I'll second that

It is fun - I use an Akai E2 Headrush, so does KT Tunstal....
