We’ve always been told that a picture is worth a thousand words. This may be true, however, it’s possible for a picture to be worth more. Pictures can be worth a thousand sounds as well. Case in point, the image above. The Fat version of the Fuzz Factory guitar pedal. This image is worth a thousand sounds to me and my listeners. Other than a stack of Marshall amps, no single image comes as close to a visual description of this radio program.

This week was the final Fuzz Factory big rock show of 2013. The special feature was the latest installment of the Full On Fuzz Rock Show. It’s been quite a while since the last fuzz rock show. That made this feature an even more perfect way to end the year. Since it was possible and I was ready, willing and able, this Fuzz Factory Full On Fuzz Rock Show was FOUR HOURS (yes!) long. Going doublewide to end the year! Those of you that tuned in were lucky enough to hear four hours of super fat fuzzed out riffs, heavy grooves, psychedelic trips, abundant use of cowbell, electric guitars plugged into bass amps and the fuzz pedal used in full force! Four hours moving along with limited interruption is a great ride. To an experienced heavy groove rider, it’s like listening to one long great song spanning 40 years of hard rock and garage punk.

Be safe during the holiday season. See you on the flip side in early January 2014.
