DEVIN TOWNSEND Versus Ditto X4 Looper; "Instructional" Video Available
February 4, 2016, 8 years ago
In the right corner we have the mighty Devin Townsend, maker of massive metal riffs and intergalactic puppets with a craving for coffee and world domination. In the left corner we have Ditto X4 Looper, a dual track looper with 7 on-board loop FX, loop decay and MIDI Sync. Basically the creative motherload. Who will stand victorious in the end? That is the question....
Townsend, the mastermind behind acts Strapping Young Lad, Ocean Machine and Punky Brüster, recently posted the following message:
"Squid Squiderson, bassist on Punky Brüster and Ocean Machine, could use a little help. He's been battling MS (Multiple Sclerosis) for a while now and things are getting a little tough. Please, help if you can, even if it is just sharing this post and link..."
A benefit show for Squiderson has been announced for February 17th in Vancouver, BC at The Fox. Townsend will perform an acoustic set on the night, other acts on the bil include Hot Panda, Catlow, Library, and the sexy sounds of DJ Jason Corbett, More acts may be announced soon. Watch the event page here for updates.
Squiderson has posted the following update on the GoFundMe page.
"I've been dealing with MS for many years and it's progressed to the point of me not being able to work my job. I require special equipment and I hope to go to school to earn a living again but I'm struggling to meet simplest daily needs and I need help. Anything helps and despite my pride I'm asking for a bit 'o help."
