  1. Your S is correct, I'd maybe put "[b]rather[/b] than 11pm and 8 am, as frequently happens".
  2. [quote name='spectoremg' timestamp='1432960270' post='2786587'] Buddy Holly gigs? [/quote] My tongue in cheek point, as per the OP was that it is a Cricket Ground not a venue...!
  3. "Old Trafford Cricket Ground". Why would anything in the title of that venue suggest to me it would be a good venue for music...?
  4. Long before U2 "gave" away their album on iTunes, there was a Band called Free.
  5. There's the Peter Kay routine about playing "Annie, I'm not your Daddy.."
  6. It's your Bass, do whatever you want. Just don't ever sell it on eBay and expect it to go unnoticed!
  7. Turned out the guy didn't really understand the term "Powered". He had a "Powered" desk in that it was "powered by electricity" but did not have an internal amp section. He did however have "Powered" speakers which did have an internal amp but it seems either combination will work with a powered desk.
  8. Seen them a few times now always a great gig. Looks like Rocco Prestia is back on Bass after his transplant and all the drummers I know seem to rate David Garibaldi.
  9. [url="http://www.mslpro.co.uk/brands.php"]http://www.mslpro.co.uk/brands.php[/url]
  10. [quote name='pfretrock' timestamp='1432662381' post='2783740'] You can actually fold a piece of paper in half six times. Ben was mistaken. [/quote] Thing is, he got to 5 folds in the studio and thought "F*ck it, I need to actually write and perform some music"...and the rest is, as they say, history.
  11. Ben Folds Five are in the studio working on their new album, provisionally titled "Origami".
  12. Not only is the father of Countryside Alliance Supporter Otis Ferry, Bryan Ferry headlining his latest Tour but he has arranged the Tour Personnel's transport between gigs by boat which he himself is Skippering. Needless to say it has a bumper sticker saying simply, "Bryan's Ferry"
  13. Taylor Swift now guarantees new zips or invisible mending in 30 minutes.
  14. For reasons I don't need to go into on here, is it possible/safe to use a powered desk if you use powered speakers? I have powered speakers and a passive desk myself and know that combination works....!
  15. This is the guy who sells Deco and B Stock HB's as "German Engineered". On that basis this is "Newquay Engineered" and casts a shadow on it's great woodworking tradition...
  16. [attachment=192685:tn2_4886733.jpg] Hofner Shorty?
  17. [quote name='Meddle' timestamp='1432416654' post='2781344'] Following the death of Keith Moon, The Who decided to add keyboard to their live sound. Their first keys man, John 'Rabbit' Bundrick, died of myxomatosis onstage during a performance in Japan. [/quote] I'm sure I read somewhere he was actually run over by a Magic Bus?
  18. Good price on that from Andertons, I think Thomann were on at £700 for the same.
  19. [i]Bloody Snake[s] Oil [/s]Skin Salesmen[/i]
  20. [quote name='Funky Dunky' timestamp='1432389803' post='2781082'] Robben Ford is one of the most wonderful guitarists on the planet IMO. Did you know he used to steal cars? [/quote] I think you should have posted that in the Alternative Rock Factfile thread....
  21. LIke I said, I could be totally and embarrassingly wrong....!
