Morning, What would you call a reasonable amount of time to travel to rehearsals ? at the age of 39 im getting bored of trapsing across London for 1hr+ each way and getting in at gone midnight. Ive triewd to find something where I am in south London but all musical projects seem to be either far north or west London. Its grates me a bit as well when everyone else lives 10 minutes walk away and I have to get 2 tubes and a train. Am I being unreasonable or am I being a miserable git

I think id rather pass my 135 b-string down my urethra

Saw ghost the Albert hall on the 9th. sound was pretty dire and the bass was pretty non existent from my seat shame really as the show itself was mesmerising

Can’t recommend the below enough guy Marino enough.great service for anyone in the south London area. crystal palace/upper Norwood based

Anyone going to see ghost tonight at the Albert hall tonight ? If their bass tone is still as colossal as this, I may need to take an extra pair of pants

ive had this loads. had a junk bitsa on there, £100 no offers, got an email offering £50. I didn't even bothering to answer

not just me then lol

strengths- can pick like a hammer and can keep up with any metal guitarist weaknesses- lazy when it comes to practicing. sometimes becoming very complacent...also very lazy when it comes to warming up

Bloody hell I didn't realise that. if I turned up angel never played anything pre 1998 id be mad as hell

I can only think of 2-3 members on here who would know who they are

tom araya- slayer dave Collins - weedeater pete helmkamp- angelocorpse (unknown to most but how he plays what he plays under his vocal I have no idea) jeff walker - carcass glen Benton-deicide steve tucker- morbid angel

try a Ibanez sr300, cheap and very versatile

I do with regular occurrence lol

Great find....I bought one of the butterscotch ones that used to come as a package. Whacked a SD quarter pounder in it and haven't looked back since.

thanks for all the replies guys, I feel a whole lot better

As the great man in my avatar once said "if you think you're too old for rock and roll, then you probably are" I turned 39 Sunday and have noticed the last year or so im having more and more trouble finding a rock/metal band due to my age. I have had a few replies saying im to old (which im obviously not) but I can understand it if the band are in their early 20s.itll get worse next year when im 40 and everyone thinks you are a dressing gown moaning about the weather. I have no intentions of stopping playing the music I love but I find it worrying that bands are dismissive straight off the bat just because of a number What do you guys think ?

the terror will give you a lovely warm tone for blues, especially if you stick flats on the p

my local one is rubbish. they sell second hand gear at ridiculous prices. they had a squire precision at £10 below new price and you could easily see the wear. The new prices had such a mark up I stood there in amazement

my first amp was a rb9 and had a rb410 4x10 cab. I love them but my back didn't. the only reason I got rid was the weight. never let me down once

its bloody terrible. venues and promoters think one share of a facebook post is promoting

defo never the st moritz club. as has been mentioned, an absolute dive, not advertised anything. we was told well be on at 930 and had 10 mates coming to see us so they turned up at 915 as another band is setting up. I say to soundguy "whats going on" his reply was "oh weve slotted in another band last minute, your on at 1030 now". he then had the cheek to cut our set early as he said we ran over time
