Uhmm.. sticking my neck out buuuut, I found the Foos to be rather boring. I guess only having an hour affected their set choice but I just feel it's always Dave talks, quiet intro, ramp it up, Dave shouts, bring it down, bit of improv, loud, shout, quiet, loud, shout, end. Next song, repeat previous. I dunno, I just found them a bit by numbers. I did like the band intros though, Nate wallops out a bit of Beastie Boys and Pat gives us some God Save The Queen.

Yes, they very soon become a Didjeridon't.

Clem is an absolute monster. I love his passion and energy.

She is and always has been one of those vocalists with decidedly questionable pitching. Still pretty iconic though.

Wouldn't that be great! If all the audience for their upcoming gigs wore bobble hats 😁

I don't think you should tell people what you are changing it to.. 😉

Thanks folks. Job done, Roqsolid on order.

Sorted! Thanks 👍

My old amp cover has just started to degrade. It's a foam backed vinyl and the foam is now turning to powder. It's lasted a good 10 years so fair enough. (I can't remember who made it. Black vinyl, white piping and it had a union flag stuck on the front corner). Anyway, It looks like it's going to be a Roqsolid one but I was just wondering is there anything else a weekend warrior like myself should consider or just stick with my initial choice. (I want a protective soft cover, not a flight case). Thanks Mark

And if you miss both the B and the C you get Boris Johnson 😁

"You'd also be a fool to think he is not monitoring this thread." Well let's hope he has a very twitchy sphincter before his next gig then.

Nicely rehearsed. The singer certainly has a unique stage presence....

One of my most very favourite things ever!!

Blimey 😪 R.I.P. Alasdair "Algy" Ward. Bass player with the The Saints, The Damned and Tank. The sound of that P bass being hammered for the intro to Love Song by The Damned fuelled the fires of tone for me.

I think they've been over starched.

Ahh the Digeridoo, that when someone goes to play one, is swiftly renamed Digeridon't!

A post from him earlier - The Beast! 1972 Fender Precision fretless bass. (I have not changed these strings since Coachella, 2005. They’re loaded with mojo & sound like that should!) L & R rehearsal, LA. @loveandrocketsofficial

Saw this on the socials earlier so thought I'd share it. Oh, I was also told he uses D'Addario Chromes.

Wait until 60! 😪

That's exactly how I've done it. This was for a boost channel and all I wanted was to lift the output level a touch. Worked perfectly.

Yes, I can hear you Clem Fandango.

Ah! Yes! This was the what I had on playing in the back ground.

Yes! Of course! Andy Warren laid down some great bass lines on DWWS. It's still an all time fav album for me. Watching Leigh play live with BWW, he does throw in a bit of manic slap as well as pick playing.

I accidentally listened to some Bow Wow Wow the other day, and was blown away by Leigh Gorman's bass playing. I had totally forgotten how good he is. I'm very aware of him from the original Adam And The Ants line up but, blimey! Of course add in to this Dave Barbarossa's driving drums and Mathew Ashman's rockabilly sounding guitar and musically they had something going on. Sadly, for me, the songs are a bit meh and the vocals just don't help. Was it a Wal he was playing then? (I should add that it was live performance of the band that was running in the background from YTube.)
