  1. If I didn't already have all the tracks, I'd jump on this offer.
  2. [quote name='RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE' timestamp='1373222551' post='2135002'] Looks like I'll join next pay day (end of july). I assume the dd will be taken the exact day you join ? [/quote] You don't need a dd, Spotify will take the payment direct from your debit card on the same day every month. Easy Peasy.
  3. I hope your DipMus clears up soon, I think you can get cream for it at the chemists. [size=4] [/size]
  4. Bummer Pete, I hope you get it sort satisfactorily.
  5. Just to add, you get a higher bit rate when you subscribe.
  6. I've got one. Great value at a tenner a month. I load my smartphone with song lists and as long as you log in every 30 days, it's always there. You can load your phone with up to 3,300 tracks IIRC. Great if you're going out of the country for a couple of weeks.
  7. What the hell's going on. Everyone's getting new P basses except me. Lovely bass BTW.
  8. Good score,a very nice looking P. Enjoy.
  9. I have only been ever sacked once from a band. We had one rehearsal and then I was told that I didn't fit in. I suspect that it was because they found out that I was a DWP fraud officer at the time and they were all working and signing on. [size=4] [/size][size=4] [/size]
  10. Kit's facebook post said you were crap. [size=4] [/size][size=4] [/size]
  11. Welcome aboard. If you'er here to chew the fat, discreet has enough to go round. [size=4] [/size]
  12. The Quo supplied all the coke.
  13. I thought that Mick Taylor lost the way on Midnight Rambler, like he didn't know why he was there.
  14. Great review and some lovely basses there. Looks like you had a worthwhile trip.
  15. As usual, a high standard again this month. 3 numbers I really liked. Debs, what a cracking first entry, keep it up. Discreet, really enjoyed that one, well done Sir. Skol/Urb, just outstanding for me, a wonderful collaboration. Love it.
  16. [color=#333333][font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]A 12 pt. business card means that it is 0.012 inch (0.3048 mm) thick. Hope that answers your question.[/size][/font][/color]
  17. A good and honest post. I wish you well with your sale and good luck with your move t'up north and projects.
  18. I saw them in the '70's a few times,some gigs with Bill Bruford and others with Alan White. Both great drummers. Chris Squire was a massive influence on me picking up a bass but a Yes gig without Jon Anderson or Rick Wakeman. I don't know if I could enjoy it without being negative about their absence. Didn't like them without Steve Howe either. YMMV.
  19. Nice one Nigel, great drummer. I hope you keep in touch with him. BTW,was that Van Morrison's twin brother on vocals? [size=4] [/size]
  20. I wonder how many of the people objecting to the seller fees now didn't make a donation when they sold in the past. Quite a few I'll bet.
  21. [quote name='fumps' timestamp='1371559630' post='2115480'] Cheers Karl.....I was aware of that (Insert sarcasm font) But the charge is still payable. BC is not E-bay they dont have the same systems in place to operate in the same way. And i would have thought the benefit is obvious, the fact that BC lives on. Or do you not count that as a benefit ? Am I right in thinking some are against the charges & someone else should pay for the site other than the people who use it everyday? I'm not meaning that in a stroppy way, I'm just wondering why someone can justify using something & not offering anything in return. Lets be fair guys. people were not paying & now Basschat is asking for help, And some people seem to begrudge this. Going back to the idea that BC is a meeting place, free to be here, come & go as you please. I'd like to elaborate on this idea: Now change this idea to Basschat being your house. people can come round, chill out, have a laugh, swap advice while having a good old chat in your house & garden. they can come & go as they please any time they like. But at the end of the day it's your responsibility your paying the bills & sorting out the cleaning of the house....this starts getting more and more expensive and is taking up more & more of your personal time, when you notice some people are using your house like an open market & selling items that are in most cases expensive. So basically people are using your garden to sell stuff for (some cases) hundreds of pounds and even up to a grand and above they are still walking away with a full wallet & your still left to clean up and pay out of your own pocket just to keep the place running. they are walking away with money they have made by using the contacts they have made from being at your house, without you providing this space they could not have made the contacts they have in order to make these sales and it is still costing you money to run.......So you ask for a small cut of those sales to help out or at least break even & your visitors start to moan at you for asking for a contribution towards the running of your house that you have opened for people to use freely..........I dont know about anyone else but if that was to happen my foot would be so far up their arse, their Adams apple would be my boot. I think peoples opinion is one way or the other: are happy to help the site or not ? I admit I'd been using the site for years before I realised that someone was paying for this site out of their own pocket & then I felt really guilty for not helping. This year I paid my £20 to trade, have I sold anything on here ? no. did I feel ripped off ? of course not I have used this site for years, met some great people & learned so much about music and equipment. I have even got some free stuff from people so I think that £20 is almost an insult for being so cheap. I think people should start to see this site as something more than a thing on a screen this site is a asset not a right. [/quote] Well said Fumps, totally agree.
