I have seen him in a Beefeater by the A3 near Richmond Park. Seriously..... no word of a lie....

See a few replies earlier for answer :)

*Cough* I couldn't possibly say But the 'Oh, I've had it years, it's just been in a case' excuse still gets aired on occasion

I rent a climate controlled room in a friend's secure, production/storage facility. No way I could have them all otherwise! lol!

Best 'alternative reality' post of the year....😂😂😂😂

Update - ticket for Guildford now bought! So who else, apart from Merton and Graemeross is coming?

Haven't bought my tkt yet - but I'm intending to be there! :)

See my previous answer.

Jeff Lynne's ELO at London O2 Arena last night! Wonderful songs, fantastic musicians and vocals, stunning light show and an atmosphere of smiley, happy people singing along..... oh, and my 'young at heart' Mum by my side enjoying very minute. Precious moments for sure :)

My band tell me that my Spectors sound fabulous..... Now, if I was to believe it's all in the fingers then it's ME who sounds fabulous! Happy days!! 😎😁🏆 I'd say it's more 50/50 though. Me playing an e.g. SG bass wouldn't sound as good in our band context.

Mine too..... and add some hair on the top of my head! lol!

I think everyone has their own holy grail, a bass they arrived at through influences, fave tones, feel, looks, value for money, ability to fit most/all musical situations...... endless other reasons etc...... but mainly that just feels 'right' and almost an extension of their musical self. Mine is the Spector NS2. YMMV.....

Can I get an 'Amen'! ❤️

Fantastic album...... though my all time fave Rush album is Farewell To Kings! Not sure I'll get it.... but will probably buy Geddy's Big Book Of Bass :)

Ah, a familiar group of Spectors there! Welcome :) I still want that Forte X!

Sorry buddy!

£202!

Congrats! Quite the score! I'll give you £200 for it if you don't end up getting on with it.....

Fantastic! Peter Cetera's bass on Dialogue (Pts 1 & 2) is awesome and worth the purchase price alone!

Bargain! Buy! Buy! Buy!

MYOB 😂

No shock you feel could ever match the disappointment I feel in myself.... 😂😂
