    Jack Daniels, surely? (If it’s iced tea, Dave, please don’t spoil the illusion…😁)

    I have a brand new unplayed, sealed set of Knopfler vinyl LPs I wish to dispose of. Here are the details: https://elusivedisc.com/mark-knopfler-the-studio-albums-2009-2018-180g-9lp-box-set/ UK retail price is £166, but I would be happy to accept £100. Can take a photo, but would have to unseal to emulate the expanded version in the link. Suffice to say it is new and mint.

    Owned for a year but I am no longer in the band it was bought for. These basses have a great reputation, and rightly so. Only modification is a high-mass Fender bridge that really makes it sing. The video gives an indication of what a decent player can do with this. Enjoy! Price now £175.

    My band are about to rehearse with a new drummer for the first time. Given the close relationship between bass and drums, I wondered what your three top attributes would be…

    Vegan burgers ARE the wurst! 😂

    I used to write for Guitar and Bass magazine (no longer published) and a feature idea I never got into print was about musicians who play in tribute bands. The kind of things I wanted to know: Do you have to be a fan of the original artist, or maybe you become one? How important is it to be visually/musically identical? How much latitude are you allowed? Do you ‘get into character’ or is it just a gig? Does it feel musically limiting, or is it fulfilling your needs? (Maybe you have a side band?) Do you have any qualms about tributes ‘stifling original music’? Have you ever met or been seen by a member of the ‘originals’? What did they say? What is the overriding thing being in a tribute act has taught you? Having done it once, would you do it again? If so, would the musical angle be very different? After initially being snobbish I have seen some great tributes, my favourites being ELO Experience (featuring @casapete), Limehouse Lizzy and Purple Zeppelin. Would be interested in people’s experiences…

    Zombie thread resurrection!

    The Frampton Comes Alive effect! Man, nearer to home, were similar.

    I just can’t get it out of my head😘

    That’ll do for me. Yellow card!

    At least you resisted the pressure to wear a curly wig and spangled frock… 💃

    Wish I had been around to see this!

    Can you show with covers off please?
  17. Mickeyboro
    Presumably the Cheese and Grain, Frome? Or are you keeping it a secret in case we pee on your leg?😂

    I googled and it said Anthrax. I was in mid reassessment when you responded…😂
  19. Mickeyboro
    Think I will stick to the Dog and Duck…😂

    I can vouch for that! What was the gig Keith?
  21. Mickeyboro
    But your back pocket is not in view…😂
  22. Mickeyboro
    Whereabouts is this?
  23. Mickeyboro
    ‘Not bad…for his age’😁 Good luck to you both!
  24. Mickeyboro
    It’s when they say ‘he’s not bad…for his age’ that I will hang my 71P up (or sell it to you). The fact this is a birthday month may mean I am touchier than usual😬

    I have found a button that supposedly lets me see signatures. Is being on a mobile phone the problem? Cos I still can’t… Ah well, I’ve always found ignorance is bliss. As you were!
