Baboom tish! We are here all week folks!

I think the current issue, with Dave Ellefson, was the last of my current subscription, was in 2 minds anyway about renewing. Mind Def made up now! Ah well...moving on....anyone got any good cat pics?........oh ...wait....wrong thread

Yay I thought I was going gaga when I read that yesterday, it seems I ain't the only pedantic bugger round here And no it was an advert for a new Squier telebass I think. Thankfully the picture of said Bass had the spelling right on the headstock!!!!

[quote name='ped' timestamp='1330874507' post='1564155'] Most random thing happened afterwards though. Just drove back to have lunch in Marlow with my BC book keeper Dave and we were spotted by a BCer who was in Pizza Express for his sisters birthday. I'm really sorry I have forgotten your username but it was great of you to come and say Hi! Give me a shout if it was you and I'll send you a present. [/quote] My name is Oopsy and I claim my 5 pounds...now...where is Marlow again?

was gonna say lazy git, but plays live...then saw thats the most popular choice right now and thought I'd better keep quiet!........erm ....wait.......did I type that out loud?

[quote name='Lenny B' timestamp='1330798397' post='1563219'] Well they nicked it from Floyd - that's what they did on the recording [/quote] Yup Saw Waters doing it in Hyde park a coupla years back on his solo tour. Gooood gig, got some REALLY dodgy video of me and me mates singing along to Wisha somewhere

[quote name='jonthebass' timestamp='1330771080' post='1562688'] Er, Nice bass but a slight hijack here - I have an [i]almost[/i] identical Bravewood available FS at just over a third of the price of that! [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/154505-fs-bravewood-50s-p-bass-custom-ordered/"]http://basschat.co.u...custom-ordered/[/url] [/quote] Now then..THATS a nice bass, none of that 'relicing' malarky that totally shagged the Dusty Hill one

Smoooooth! Some buggers nicked yer headstock though

Great start to your Pink Floyd education my friend! Their music is far reaching and full of depth..enjoy

Ugh!....Just...No!

[quote name='shizznit' timestamp='1330685553' post='1561457'] Our manager approached me back stage at a gig and asked me if I had any hair on my chest. Very apprehensively I said Not much;why? He replied Well, I bought some of this liquid PVC yesterday I walked away from him and didnt speak to him until the following morning. [/quote] WTF??? Am I missing something here?

That was fast!

My thought too Charic, I'm too fat in white lol!

[quote name='Hobbayne' timestamp='1330451853' post='1557773'] Why all the fawning? Guy Pratts on here, and no one bats an eyelid [/quote] He is? Does he post much?

Hell Yeah! Nice to see a familiar face

[quote name='skankdelvar' timestamp='1330288547' post='1555331'] If - indeed - there [i]is[/i] anything else going down onstage. God knows, at worst punters are used to things like the telly where the entertainment is - again at worst - professional. So they walk into a boozer and see a clutch of pudgy middle-aged men, one of whom is wearing an inappropriate hat, while another sports a lurid shirt. 'The Band' kicks off a hideous row and stop 3 minutes later to an embarrassed silence. 'Hello' says the frontman and dabs his forehead nervously. Songs you've heard a million times stumble around before collapsing into each other in a welter of panicky glances, weak jokes and muffed intros. After half an hour, the noise subsides and someone says "We'll be back in ten minutes". I mean, is that like - a threat - or what? 'The Band' edges six inches away from the bit of carpet that denotes the performance area and stand around in abashed silence. Someone's brother-in-law laughs. No-one knows why. The second set is no different from the first except that a number of 'regulars' have sidled quietly into the other bar where they are pulling exaggerated faces and sticking their fingers in their ears. As the final climactic chord dies away, a cymbal stand falls over. The scowling drummer rushes outside, where he can be heard slagging off the guitarist in a loud voice. "Dear God, we should be paying the audience" says the bass player. He is right. [/quote] EGAD Skank! You went to our last gig?

[quote name='bassace' timestamp='1330279427' post='1555075'] Stables at Wavendon, that's the very best place to be. [/quote] Great venue, was coupla weeks back for Limehouse Lizzy......can't see US getting there though
