BUt!!! I assumed if my orders were from HHV exclusively it would automatically be cleared no questions asked!


Wait you have vids? Of your band playing FLOYD? Please share! One of my favorite bands..

xxpic, you can see videos on our website: afewmorebricks.com I did post a couple on here last night. We are also on Facebook as
A Few More Bricks (and reverbnation.com)

Thanks Thorbear, I spent a long time, sweat and money working on my guitars and effects (and my fingers) to get the right tone. I actually have some effects hand built by the same person who built David Gilmour's effects. The BK Butler Tube Driver (if anyone cares).

Your hard work is very apparent. What an amazing experience and sense of satisfaction you must have had with that concert. Every bit of it seems ultra professional from performance to sound to lighting and special effects.
Re the BK thingie - That's nice. I have no idea what it is, though.

That's cool :) Vapers who complain about expensive gear should try being a musician who wants to try everything :laugh:
It's mostly personal pleasure of course, most people won't know (or care) what you're playing on or through.
Gilmour has his signature style of bends, takes a while to get into the feel and intonation of them - good job again :toast:

Buggs, BK Butler builds David's overdrives (that crunchy/fuzzy distorted sound). I saw in an interview he lives in Colorado. I did an internet search and found his phone number. I gave him a call and asked him to build me the exact spec overdrives that he built for Gilmour. They are driven by a vacuum tube which gives them an extremely warm sound. I ended up having two of them built. By the way, Billy Gibbons from ZZ Top is also a huge fan of BK Butler's overdrives, as well as Eric Johnson.

I know I've mentioned it before, but out of all the HHVs I've order, the two I did NOT
like were Huntsman and Dark Horse. However, I did not give up hope because I'm a
graduate of Steeping 101.

I got them almost three months ago. About a week ago I decide to whip out the Dark
Horse. I vaped it at work and it blew my mind. Wow. How much did it change!?!

So tonight I thought, self - that Huntsman might be good now, too.

So I heeded the call. It's awesome. I don't know if I like one better than the other -
they are so close to the same at this point. But I do know this...

Any grad from Steeping 101 knows that you should order before you need it. So...

It looks like I have one of those in my near future so I can vape it in three months.

Maybe even less cuz I took a crash course in Steeping 201. Turns out all the cool
kids are taping their juice bottles to the tires on their car. They are done steeping
by the time you get home from your next drive.

On a side note: This Huntsman is going great with the show I'm watching on PBS.
It's the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. They always blow me away.

I wonder if they know about Huntsman?

Yay! My vapemail just hit Memphis. According to Stamps.com, it's still in Newnan, according to USPS tracking it went directly from HHV to Memphis, no stops in between. What service! At least it isn't lost somewhere.

Just pulled mine out of the mailbox. That was fast!

AND my little package from Australia was in there too! Thanks Scarfy!!

That's better Biv.

I have some 50-day old Huntsman and I really like it. It has a real smooth, yet deep earthy taste. Very good stuff. A good one for folks who are still struggling with the ciggies.

It is. It would be perfect for a new quitter - if they had time to steep it.

Since mine is three months old, it is 36 mg - I've cut back since then, so this will have
to be a work vape - I don't chain vape there. But if I don't put it away right now, I'm
gonna get nic sick tonight. Hard to put away, though.

Sigh :(

Gives a reason to look forward to work tomorrow. :)

Ha. You're right. 36 is a bit much at this hour.

Thtop it, you big meany.

I had to put it away for reasons described. Since I had the atty out, I decided
it was a good time to check out my Plume Room Honey FIG Tobacco.

Interesting vape, to be sure. Not an all-dayer, but interesting.

I have flavor block (zombie tongue) against most of the HHVs right now, so I'm having
to branch out.

BTW - why would that be? I can taste other vendor's juices, but as of late, I cannot
taste HHV tobaccos?

The Dark Horse and Huntsman tasted fine because they are not a strong flavor after
they steep, but all of the usuals - Booty, Serendip, Shadow - no flavor except for the
very first wonderful pull. Then - poof - no mas.

I can taste Heavenly Tobacco and Gollum, but not those three. So frustrating.

Ditch the dung.
Sounds like a funny prank I used to play on the neighbors when I was a kid. :p

Buuuh seriously, I only have 30ml of swill, so I think that's ok. I have another 80ml of "just ok" vape. The rest is just goody goody gum drops a-steepin' away...and another 330ml en route. I opt to vape the secondary stuff for a week and be dung with it once and for all. (ya see what I did there?) It's primo vapo for this boy from now on. Any mistakes along the way will surely be someone else's gold.
