examples of these bands? Because I'm pretty sure all the bands that goto Joey are required to bring pre pro of at least every song on the cd. How is that not being prepared?
4 out of 5 bands that go to him have endorsement deals, so they have top notch guitars, amps, drums and more. I really dont understand what the fuck your post is trying to say.
Do you really think when a band goes into the studio, that they use THEIR gear?
...typically they don't. They use the Producer's gear, because the Producer has established a trademark sound.
