RDJ truly living up his Analord moniker.

I've always liked this picture of him in his studio. Chaos. Suits the music.

pretty cool studio picture. where was the photo posted originally?

quite the contrast in the two pictures. the black and white feels more inline with the music and apparent personality and music style. where the color image is very anally neat....doesnt seem to fit the personality of the music.
probably way off base....but the images dont seem to fit together.

Come To Tabby! ;)

LOL come to tabby, nice! That is *bad ass*, thanks polarbear! That video sounds kinda like Last Rushup 10, I wonder how the speakers played into things. About the difference between the two pix re, I always figured he had his core go-to equipment sorted like the 1st pic, and he hauled in other pieces as he needed them like the custom stuff and the piano setup for Drukqs...who knows tho
