  1. That would be an absolute no for me, and I wouldn't play the gig if it came to it. The organisers should be hiring backline if thats how they want to run things.
  2. Lovely. I remember cycling from school to Socodi music in Canterbury to gaze lovingly through the window at one of these. It seemed otherworldy in comparison with my Hofner.
  3. Thank you Jon, thats the colour I've been looking for to paint my Street Twin!
  4. Green was a factory colour on the BB3000MA, but the green you posted about is more vibrant and striking.
  5. Can't believe that place is stil open. It was rubbish in the '70s when Johnny himself was running it and it's still rubbish.
  6. We have had some decent deals on PA gear and lighting in the past from Why Buy New who are just down the road in Colchester. (Although they seem to prefer to post stuff at the moment for some reason!) https://www.whybuynew.co.uk/sound-pa/speakers/speaker-packages/
  7. Think about who is going to pay for it. If you're planning to split the cost between the individual band members, it's a good idea to work out up front what you're going to do when someone leaves, and be completely honest and transparent about it.
  8. From memory, 24 Kgs. Revolutionary when new. Probably regarded as mid-weight now. Size is about the same as your 4x10.
  9. I have an EBS Neoline 212 and if anything it has a slight mid-scoop.
  10. That sounds like a winner, I've been wanting to catch up with you for a while and this is a good opportunity. It's an excellent venue, if slightly esoteric. It's also been host to the Colchester beer festival for many years.
  11. I've never played an 1100, but that sounds like a good description of the neck on my BB800.
  12. Oh, I don't know. I'm quite fond of this:
  13. bit of cooking foil on the end of the allen key can sometimes get enough grip. Torx keys are also available.
  14. I think what happened, from other reports, was that there was a massive power spike which caused the backup generator, which provides power to the core routers and the fire suppression system, to kick in. The backup generator then failed, causing the fire suppression system to activate itself and spray water into the data centre. It's like a rail brake which is powered off and fails on: the fire suppression system will activate if it loses permanent and temporary power.
  15. Behringer Ultravoice XM8500 are absolutely fine for this and very cheap. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Behringer-XM8500-Ultravoice-Cardioid-Microphone/dp/B0002KZAKS
  16. Yes very nice. But, Italian-made ? IThat's a surprise, I thought they were made in Fujijen (and that neck plate looks like it has 'Made in Japan' stamped on it to my dodgy mince pies).
  17. Fill My Little World - The Filling
  18. This sounds like a great approach to running a radio station. Is it possible for us to listen on-ine?
  19. Ii think 160 bugs fixed is a good argument. I guess the main compelling reason will be if you exchange files with other people and they upgrade to version 3.0, since the new file format isnt' backwards-compatible.
  20. Welcome Steve F. Maybe you could try an advert in the 'Wanted' section?
  21. Cut short due to arrests? You can't leave us hanging!
  22. Thanks for the heads-up. It's a fantastic bit of software.
  23. That would only work with a series effects loop.
  24. 2Kg diving weights would fit in those pockets. You'd get 2 or maybe 3 in each one.
