  1. Yeah, I always find it weird when I see people with big tunnels and no other mods, because they are such a permanant thing that really stands out. Getting some shitto tattoo because its "cool" is easy covered up and generally more accepted anyway. Tunnels aren't and always look crap once you've taken them out, unless you get them stitched, that cost my piercer around £400 to have it done properly.

    I'm really into body modification, so I've got a fair few piercings and such, and big plans for the future, starting my 2nd lobe stretches at the moment, so I'll have two tunnels next to each other.

  2. I've got two 16mm's and two 3mm's at the mo.

    I pierced them myself, started at 1.6, then 4,5,6,8,10,12,14,16.

    First stretch did hurt a lot, but this had something to do with I only pierced them 2 weeks earlier, and it was a big stretch.

    If you have the money, what I'd recommend is that you get pierced with a large guage needle, say 2mm or 2.5 or however big your piercer is comfortable with, then have them stretch immediately to the next size. This not only means you start on 4mm or something, but it will actually heal quicker too.

  3. Running it upside down won't work because it is open and air will get into it.

    Hope levers won't work because they are DOT fluid, Magura run on mineral oil.

    I suggest getting in touch with cleanbikes or Magura UK and trying to source a lever, if not, see if you can find a right hand Shimano hydraulic lever, as these are also open and mineral.

  4. Yeah, you definately need loud levels, you don't really scream louder than you sing, but for some reason its easier.

    The only thign I can think of to help is sorta to tense your diaphragm, its hard to explain, but when you get it you'll understand, assuming you do it the same way I do, which seeing as your looking for super low growls, you probably won't.

  5. it must do, the lead singer of A7X cant scream anymore because he screamed so much it fooked his throat.

    And this convieniently happened about the same time everyone was jumping on the emo bangwagon so it was cool to scream less ;)

    Trust me, if you do it right, it's fine, hence why theres thousands of screaming bands with no vocalists dying.

  6. Oh, on a sidenote, I read in the papers at the weekend that there are more students currently studying media studies than there are in the whole media industry in the UK. Wonder how many will get that dream job in media at the end of it...?

    This may be because everyone always takes media because its such a doss :turned:
