Who would they get to play the second guitar if they decided to get one...

I use alternate tunings that allow my guitar parts to sound like two guitars. There are times when I do wish we had two guitar players, but
that's just for the odd harmony here and there.

"the incredible screaming 80's guitar harmonies at every part in every one of our songs."

Yeah, Justin can play guitar. He told my buddies and I that on May 30th. But I think he also said that he couldn't play livid songs because
they're too complex.
If a man has nothing worth dying for, he is not living. With this one special person, I have learned to live.

I agree. A song just isn't very good unless it is has 80s metal guitar harmonization played throughout. It's high time Chris replaced his
entire band with 80s metal guitarists to perform 5 part harmonization.

I know!
Hey Chrissy Boi... if you need another guitarist i have a couple lined up and able to put out... lol lemme know!
Oh and personally i think the livid sounds wicked with just one guitar... chris is one talented SOB... BUT>>> i think if another guitarist
came along, it could help the music expand to other directions and also like you said... the odd harmony here and there.. oh and some really cool
cheezy 80's guitar moves/faces.

Don't forget the divebomb squeels and pinch harmonics that come along with the 80s too Chris.

Get a trombone player, and a xylophone(sp?) too!!!!
In all seriousness though, I think The Livid sounds good with only one guitarist, Chris manages to work it around to make it sound sweet.
On an unrelated note, what drugs is this smiley taking?

Xylophone. That's right.
Yeah or a glockenspiel, or a vibraphone. Maybe chuck in some tubular bells and a gong or two. And some timpani.
And you'll have to ask Dez what drugs her smiley takes. Probably sugar.

Correct Jeff, sugar is not a drug. The Livid with two guitarists would be interesting. But I think Chris does a fine job just by himself. But if
Justin played, he could play a main verse thing, and Chris could go into crazyness guitar riffs. Kinda like old Springstein.
one last show.

I know sugar isn't a drug, but it sure makes kids go crazy.

Ah, a case of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". Not always true though. Nothing is perfect, things can always be made better.
But would another guitar make the band better? Wait - that's what we've been talking about...
