A 'please don't make me climb up the loft ladder with this' bump...... -
As stated in my previous post, I do enjoy Hootenanny every year. Must concede though that this year's wasn't the strongest, and agree that Imelda May stole it over a rather otherwise ordinary show. Enjoyed ABC though, and Gregory Porter and Rag n Boneman. Also Ruby Turner was her usual excellent self, and loved Chaka Khan's outfit Is it me or do all Seasick Steve's songs sound the same - droning bottom string guitar, and everything twice as long as it should be?

[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1483353670' post='3206378'] That`s my preference too , for exactly those reasons, but I`ve found a few who mention buzzing and ground-lift issues, even before I`ve plugged it in. Probably rotten electrics in the venue. [/quote] Definitely. I play some old theatres and occasionally get buzzing issues, and they always say it's my gear! Same with PAT testing - if any venues ask for yours, always ask them to show you their safety certificate for supplying power. Often get interesting excuses for that.

PM sent. -
Hi - is this a 4 or 8 ohm cab? Cheers.

I've found most soundguys prefer to take the DI from my Sansamp , so that in case of amp failure they still have a feed. ( Before I used the Sansamp, many still rigged up a DI box anyway for the same reason. )

3 amp heads. Gallien Krueger 1001RB for my main touring gig ( through a GK neo 410 ) GK MB800 for my local gigs ( via a BF compact.) GK 800RB as my spare head. Also have a GK MB150 combo for home noodling. Relatively GAS free now, although do quite fancy something Aguilar-ish.

Amazingly still here. Am guessing it's the location rather than the bargain price type bump.

Quite interesting article from Vintage Guitar magazine that appeared earlier this year - apologies if already posted. Cheers. http://www.vintageguitar.com/26568/5-basses-that-shook-the-world/

Mmm... interesting. The YT vid has now been blocked 'on copyright grounds' apparently.

Only selling due to PA upgrade. No offers at this price thanks, if it doesn't sell will keep as a spare. Had this advertised locally but only had stupid enquiries, so thought I'd rather someone on here got a bargain. Got a pic - if you need it sending then PM me please. Item is in Hessle (west of Hull, East Yorkshire), collection only unless somewhere not too far for possible delivery/meet up if diesel costs are met. I'm not able to post/courier at the moment thanks. Cheers. [attachment=234879:QSC USA 850 (2).JPG]

I believe Gregory had some skin surgery so wore the hat, only for it to become a bit of a trademark and then stuck with it.

So I've got a Countryman bass uke which is great. Had it nearly a year now, and was wondering when is it time to change the strings? They still seem okay to me, but have noticed the undersides feeling a bit rough, where they make contact with the frets. It came fitted with cream coloured Aquilar strings, so would be looking for the same replacements I guess? Anyone restrung their bass uke, and could maybe recommend any strings please? Also any tips on how to best do it as it looks like it might be a devil of a job, and I'm useless with tying knots etc, which I think you have to do underneath the bridge. Cheers.

Aaahh, just found out - Chaka Khan, Christine and the Queens, Roy Wood, Rag n Bone Man, Gregory Porter, ABC, UB40, Seasick Steve, Caravan Palace, Imelda May, John Cooper Clarke, Hugh Cornwell and Ruby Turner. Not the best line up for me to be honest, but will still be watching.
-
Because it is a LIVE music show ( although pre recorded ) which is sadly still a rare thing on TV these days. I love it, always watch it on New Years Day after getting up late. Anyone know the line up this year?
-
Ok, cheers. GLWTS.
-
Fab-u-lous.
-
Are these chassis units or in cabs please? Cheers.
-
That gig would be my idea of nirvana to be honest. Would so love to be involved in something like that - a great contrast to what I normally do. Mrs CP loved it too!!

Anyone Here know About Wharfedale Amps/Cabs?
casapete replied to Count Bassie's topic in Amps and Cabs
Seem to remember they were quite cheap and cheerful when first introduced (2008/9 maybe?), but didn't get to try any of the range. Only item I've seen since then was in a Cash Converters somewhere... -
Fantastic - loved the song / performance and the band sound great. Nice one Si.

Bands / artists with songs about other bands / artists
casapete replied to darkandrew's topic in General Discussion
Mott the Hoople's (David Bowie) song 'All the Young Dudes' mentions T.Rex ( as well as the Beatles and the Stones ) 'Jackie Wilson Said' by Van / Dexy's. The Commodores 'Night Train' mentions just about every soul act, as does Arthur Conley's 'Sweet Soul Music'.... And let's not forget the recent 'Lets Marvin Gaye and get it on ' by Charlie Puth. -
Later period Average White Band. Think Poco had one or two British members at some point? Ringo's All Starr band (most line ups)
-
Quite possible. Custom Sound / Fal / Fane Yorkshire connections perhaps? https://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ebayimg.com%2F00%2Fs%2FNzY1WDEwMjQ%3D%2Fz%2FGzIAAOSwpLNX8OUU%2F%24_118.JPG&imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.gumtree.com%2Fp%2Fguitar-bass-amplifiers%2Ffender-bass-amp-%2F1178467406&docid=0elgr3Ugfhm7fM&tbnid=JxVLJLrHkjRFwM%3A&vet=1&w=275&h=205&itg=1&bih=874&biw=1280&q=custom%20sound%20bass%20amp&ved=0ahUKEwikp4GB6uzQAhWeHsAKHYkDATUQMwhGKB8wHw&iact=mrc&uact=8

Plenty more about this on another thread here - http://basschat.co.uk/topic/296093-darryl-jones/page__st__30__p__3185880__hl__darryl%20jones__fromsearch__1#entry3185880
