Dunno about this exact xmas dribble awful pure torture song, but by large I do love her output including this recentish theatre release. An album that sometimes seems a bit overlooked is "The Dreaming", and I think it's wonderful, much like "Hounds of Love" is. IMHO of course.

Wow! That marketing text is a Corker. I mean it's exceptional and remarkable.

I forgot the details, but it now appears the psychology and social psychology of it all in fact means that reason and facts against their notions actually strengthen their conviction, just as documented earlier as regards to other well-known groups of people with delusions.

Watching a programme about Christmas cooking right now. Suddenly remembered that my punk band Nigella's Ahrse also got little momentum from its website. I blame Google.

Welkom, jochie! Geniet er maar van! Welcome, jochie! Enjoy it more from! Ja, hoor. Hier is 'tie: Yes, hear. Here is 'tie: 😉

Basically what Teebs says. Your basses are OK, as is your amplification. If you need to spend some money besides practising to become a better human. then I'd personally first get a multi effect of sorts, which can be very inspiring. Me, I'd just find a Boss or Zoom of some description, like a used Zoom B9.1ut, which I think is a wonderful machine but which probably has been surpassed by their newer offerings that are much cheaper. I'd keep the basses at any rate, as 600 quid doesn't get you into new ball parks (they're that good), and IF you really need to exchange the loud noise bits, then I'd look at getting a different brand than Ashdown (though I've loved my own Ashdowns), and go for separates, with one or two 112s - - not that I think it's really necessary but because it might inspire you to move into new territories.

I do seriously believe that 95% of flat earthers are scientifically inclined, and do this just for the fun of it and as some type of experiment. The last 5% OTOH, are deeply worrying, as are the nutcases people who studied "one and a half year - - on the Internet" (literally), and conclude that Earth is at the centre of the entire Universe - - of course without being able to provide the maths that prove the notion that the Sun orbits around the Earth.

DON'T!!! JUST DON'T!!! DO NOT EXPLAIN THE JOKE!!! 😂

Weird thing is our band's totally unique and google-friendly name Quaars-Liebrechts doesn't come up in searches. Weird. Very weird... 😉

Aye. A pet peeve of mine ever since I worked hard trying to find promising rock band Pope, and before I'd found them online they'd changed their name to that of a Doors album title (don't remember which one right now). Start searching for "pope" or Doors album titles! I shake my head in disbelief.

Woke Up This Monday!

Pray explain that emoji to someone with bad eyesight. Do I recognise a huge black gaping hole?

Thanks! Great mod matrix! 🙂 I had to buy it myself. A-Barb steward had set a 50 quid limit for Secret Santa (and don't forget to enlist, folks), and as this was £59.99, nobody on BC was gonna give it to me.

Sounds great! You should film it and post it on here!

Nothing much. I'm the modest type. I just hope someone who loves me enough buys me an Arturia Matrixbrute synthesizer wait what's the beautiful, knobby thing standing just behind me with its fantastic modulation matrix? 😉

Thanks! Couldn't report back earlier, but my black metal band Morhn Tormentum now start together, stop together, and... ...wait for it... ...smile together! Success! 😉

Sounds much like me when I was called to do a blues gig. I'd only played Penderecki, Stockhausen and Xenakis for decades, and suddenly have to play a 12-bar blues? Totally out of my depths. We'd always just done whatever the eff we liked. Couldn't even count to 12 !

Aye, it's more like short drones innit. Also, most of the time these people have never learnt to play the organ pedals at a professional level, and they tend to keep it simple - mostly using one foot only. That said, on many organs, especially from the seventies and later, it was perfectly possible for the organ to produce bass-resembling sounds, but of course the organ players still were no bass players.

Yes. I have the syndrome. Officially. Something about being a perfectionist and when I know, I put a comma in the wrong spot, I keep having this expectation of being found out. 😉 The following however is not the syndrome: Depping as a pianist for jazz bands, often with minutes or a few hours of notice, just because they were desperate enough and because I was available and had the gear, I always was the worst guy on stage. This after I'd agreed with them that a sax player or similar would have to play instead of the expected piano solo. Of course they always forgot, and when it was time for the piano solo, they all gave me the look, and I gave them the look whilst playing just the chords. Worked a treat: sometimes, someone would remember and get some solo notes in before the eight bars were finished! 😁

Hehehe. The Finnish genes have smitten you! But now you're back in polite UK, and in polite UK, one simply doesn't do that. No, in polite UK, one shoves his guitar up his aahrse.

This vid demos the built in sound/sequence combinations that the poster found. I think this vid amongst many others demonstrate that this is a beast indeed. Again, probably not for me, but that's about what I need from a synth, not about whether this is a good one.

Personally, I have very good experience with responding kindly, politely and with humour, pointing out to them that there's a worrying pattern, and asking them to see it from my side if they can. IME, genuine customers will see and admit this, and do something reassuring. YMMV.

Grating Dad? 😁

What BRX says, with the addition that if their login name has changed several times, that would set off some alarm bells in my head coz people can get eBay to delete bad feedback in some (many?) cases - - even though of course the received feedback still stays with them to some degree Their profile --> See all Feedback --> View ID history

Non-bass gear? Nah. I've never lusted for anything outside the bass realm... ...if you disregard my lust for pianos, drum sets, African drums, electric and acoustic guitars, flutes, saxophones, violins, synthesizers, electric pianos, digital pianos and electronic organs. It shouldn't be mentioned, but I own or have owned all of them, and right now lust for a Minimoog and a Waldorf Quantum. But no, not really! 😂
