Punk is all about smack and glue, surely! Punk is about DIY and individual expression by any means necessary. Do it, do it now!.

Why not try to get one per year? That should add up to 20 tunes no?

boke.

One bass (home made fretless) One amp (Hartke LH500), one cab (Hartke Hydrive 410) is all I use for gigging. Oh, and a board with 2 fuzz pedals, a chorus, octave and envelope filter. And a rack mounted compressor and valve O/D unit. Does that count?

I work with his mate - it's very worrying.

have we had 'stand by me' yet?

Doesn't that breach employment law on the grounds of being a) sexist and ageist? Just saying... Of course, I'm a bloke in my 30s who's about 8lb too heavy, with nay titties at all, so it might just be me being a bit grumpy.

'Boots' - Nancy Sinatra

'Be my girl' by Jet (I think), 'Live Wire' by AC/DC if you want something bit less obvious, RHCPs 'Higher ground', 'Come together' By the Beatles, 'Hysteria' by Muse, 'Eton Rifles' by the aforementioned Jam Just a minute, I'll have a proper think...

I was going to post more videos, but I'm not allowed to.

Dunno about the zoom lolly; I always preferred a Fab or the humble Minimilk.

Apparently you're better off stacking the cones rather than placing them side by side. Supposed to give better somethingorother.

[quote name='KingBollock' timestamp='1341342376' post='1717451'] Actually, we need for it to cover where on the bright to mellow range each set comes, as well as their life span. I tried to do that to but realised they conflicted and I suddenly couldn't get my head around it, but I'm sure someone cleverer could come up with something more suitable. [/quote] I'm using a rubber chicken to measure it.

Does John Hall know about that headstock?

Welcome to the forum, good to have you on this side of the pond.

I had a Zoom 3000B for a few years a while back and that was considered 'quite posh' by a guitarist friend of mine. I've also had Zoom ice lollies that were (to be frank) a bit disappointing.

Any new technique can take a while to learn, and waaaaaaaayyyyyy longer to master. To play slap proficiently (I'm still no master) I find that I have to relax. Don't push it, just keep practicing and one day you'll have a "wow, that sounded pretty darn good" moment, so have a really wide grin at the ready. Also, as a beginner I would heartily recommend taking it slow and concentrating on getting the notes clean (2nd most important thing in slap playing) and IN TIME (single most important thing when playing slap bass) - so I'd go for a metronome every time. Slap bass technique can sometimes get a bit of a flaming on here, but if you're excited by the technique, and you really like the sound then go for it - don't feel that you shouldn't learn to slap, or that you are less of a 'musician' for slapping, because some internet people that you've never met tell you it's wrong.

He blew a kiss at the end of the session!?! I feel wrong.
