[Wenander]

right at the beginning until 18 secs .... but you can hear it continues.. bap bap bap bap bap bap bap. first really fast repeating then slowing down  .. what ??

broken delay pedal ???  I think i have heard it on other shows around that era

does anyone here know what that is and why ??

i'd say that's the bass on a delay pedal but maybe Buzz is manipulating the tempo on it. it fluctuates but Kevin isn't doing anything on pedals. could also be an fx pedal the sound guy is using. i saw him switch on a reverb pedal for a short part of a song this summer and then turn it off maybe 30 seconds later.
