  1. Great band..... I used to play in them until I got too busy. Highly recommended - great fun, great basslines (courtesy of Kebabkid) and all the legends of ska, not just Madness :) What's not to like?!?
  2. Cheers Kebabkid! It's a great fun gig... and half of that fun comes from the give and take of energy with the audience :)
  3. Not Rob though.... he's a lovely chap :)
  4. Mine arrived yesterday! Beautiful book...... and one that's gonna take me a LONG time to get through, carefully turning the pages and reading every description and interview as well as taking in every picture.... Best get a few nice bottles of red wine ready to keep me hydrated 😉
  5. I can only speak from upgrading the pickups in an NS2A to full active EMGs and comparing that bass to an NS2 with EMG's/US Haz. The US Haz sounds richer and more present than the K-Haz...
  6. Yep, that's a K-Haz....
  7. Good point chap.... however, not strictly true. The (Korean) K-Haz pre-amp is the same as found in the Kramer era Korean Spector NS2A/B & C basses. This pre-amp is not the same (or anywhere near as desirable) as the proper US Haz Lab preamp found in US Spector NS2's and the Kramer American basses.
  8. Mine has been dispatched by Amazon and due to be delivered tomorrow :)
  9. KISS references: Cheap Trick reference KISS in their track Surrender "Got my KISS records out". Jimmy Barnes/INXS reference Paul Stanley of KISS (amongst others) in their track 'Good Time Tonight'. "Paul Stanley's gonna be there tonight" Jellyfish's 'Joining A Fan Club' is about joining the KISS Army....
  10. Awww.... I love you too Paul 😉
  11. Always been looked after well by Lee Voss, Stuart & all the temp staff. From trying gear to price matching/beating to ordering - all good. Surprised if there's been an issue that needs addressing right to the top?
  12. Dee was fantastic.... part of a school of 70's bass players that I adore for their melody, groove, note choice and overall contribution to the sound of any songs they were involved in. Love him.... Give me some Dee Murray, Peter Cetera, Tiran Porter, John Deacon, David Paton, Rutger Gunnarsson, Martin Tiefensee, Joe Puerta, etc over most any other bassist/bass styles since...
  13. People who add sarcastic comments and disappear without explaining
  14. Nice one! A couple of great bands you're supporting there too! :)
  15. Luckily for me I've never given a sh*t what other people thought about my playing style/stagecraft - after all it's never stopped me getting a gig. Those who matter have chosen me for my reliability, musical dexterity, groove and personality . You know, things that matter.... Probably why I'm the one on the stage and people who judge are in the audience (if they've actually left their bedroom)....
  16. That Ibanez is beautiful...
  17. Especially as they've done it wrong here...!
  18. https://www.bassgearmag.com/spector-expands-euro-and-performer-series-for-wnamm-2019/?fbclid=IwAR3WwQkxSJshH2zbf0k4Cx-5kv1k5RXHCeJ4K14rCvfrVuoRLvK3A4PXQe4 http://www.spectorbass.com/EuroSeries Nice to see Spector have circumvented CITES by moving from Rosewood to Ebony fingerboards on the new Euro LT..... with more pickup/pre-amp choices, a tapered neck and some nice new finishes in Blue Fade, Red Fade, Tiger Eye & Violet Fade(!!) High Gloss too

  20. Amen to that!! Same with my old KISS tribute (fans and one or two band members) 😂😂
  21. @casapete - I saw you guys at Epsom Playhouse a couple of years ago - fabulous stuff - you all really nailed it. I must come and see you again!
  22. @sprocketflup - you guys are SERIOUSLY good. I've seen you a couple of times now - Guildford Electric Theatre & Putney Half Moon (with Del Palmer) - and have been blown away both times! I'll be at the Half Moon in 3 weeks time too. I'll be sure to come and say Hi to you afterwards... Oh, and if you ever need a dep - let me know!
  23. No 'Tubby The Tuba'..... no proper bass programme......
  24. Thank you Sir! I'm very proud of this show :)
  25. Thank you Mickey! Yep.... Glenn is in there..... and also Ian Danter (Talksport presenter/commentator & Planet Rock DJ) on drums too! :)
