Howdy from even further down the end!

Howdy! My break was 17 years...and I was better at playing when I restarted, after the initial rusty period!

Ouch! Only ever use Hercules stands myself. Bombproof, don't fall over, and if they do have problems and are under 5 years old, the distributors will do their level best to sort it out. Three cheers for Strings and Things!

Howdy!

Hi Liam, and welcome! Playing in Exeter tonight - Whipton & Pinhoe Labour Club. New venue for us.

Ah, the toll bridge at Eynsham! Many trips 'twixt Oxford and Cheltenham have taken me over it.

Howdy from a former Essex lad. I say that, because I was born in Ilford, Essex, but Ilford is so totally London these days!

Howdy! Good starter kit!

I'm a recent convert to TI Jazz Flats. Theyre on both my main basses, and I don't see them being changed out anytime soon!

I don't need it, but it's certainly a valid thing, not a gimmick. I'll add one to the arsenal at some point, for sure. A Fender American Standard P5, probably!

It will arrive eventually! Welcome from an even more south-westerly direction!

Greetings! Is a nice amp, isn't it?

Howdy!

Howdy, welcome back!

Hi from someone [i]very close indeed[/i] to Cornwall!

I find that I can enjoy playing stuff that I wouldn't listen to. It feels different actually performing it and stuff that I would otherwise consider cheesy might seem like quite a lot of fun to perform. I wouldn't refer specifically to people I have worked with but I have played with some people who I felt were not so good until I playing with them gave me a bit more insight... I have had some disappointing ones too. The one exception to naming names is Bruce Forsyth, I felt Bruce was the epitome of finger down the throat cheese, throwaway saturday night tv guff, then I did a show with him and I was absolutely blown away by the quality of the guy. He sang, danced, joked and even played in a piano trio setting with me and the drummer. I left the stage humbled. I do realise there is a bit of a difference playing a show like I described and some sh*te arse norbert in a local boozer for 30 squids[/quote] There probably isn't a better example of the right answer to this question...

I'd be lost without mine now, and I still have my CD-BT1 MkII, because it has a line in socket, which means you can input your pc or any other line level from iPods or whatever. Very useful.
