  1. Spent the afternoon watching some episodes, food and music, how cool! Catch the Diane Birch one if you can.
  2. Just stumbled across this when checking out Diane Birch. Lots of top artists, wish I had his setup. Some Average White input as well with Eli Paperboy Reed.

  3. Not very helpful but was it 57 Varieties....?
  4. [quote name='witterth' post='920604' date='Aug 10 2010, 01:06 PM']that album was called "welcome to the cruise" and is..... just superb no musician credits on it though sadly. I've allways been aware of John Giblin,didnt he do that "lady in red" thing? (it wasnt Pino) I've never listened to him properly before today...pheww....anyboby want to buy my fretless stingray? I can't do it anymore, what a player!![/quote] I stand corrected, he actually played a couple of tracks on Ritmo by JT
  5. VV Brown got a load of airplay and publicity this time last year and did some of the Festivals but seems to have disappeared since then.
  6. I'm sure he played on the first Judie Tzuke album as well just before Rhino Edwards joined the band....the one with "Stay with me till Dawn"?
  7. 2 names I've always wanted to use are: Tipping Point Elephant in the Room
  8. I'm fairly sure they do all the work at the distributors which is Proel UK, based in/around London-let Google be your friend!
  9. Have bump on me, just looked at their site: it looks like the bass I'm going to build!
  10. My next Bass build will be an EUB, and will be a "less is more" headless take on the Bassix Stick Bass. As there will be very little body for resonation of sound, what would be the best form of pickups? I'm assuming a microphonic type like a Shertler would be wasted and I should go down the route of piezos? I have a spare Stagg preamp module from their EUB so am half way there... Any thoughts would be appreciated, thanks!
  11. Let Google be your friend: [url="http://www.wdmusic.co.uk/product/BASS_NECK_EBONY_FRETLESS_BEF"]http://www.wdmusic.co.uk/product/BASS_NECK...NY_FRETLESS_BEF[/url]
  12. I spoke to him a couple of years ago, it is a Peavey which he has stripped down and modded.
  13. Let's hope you get it sorted, we don't want a China Crisis.....
  14. [quote name='Rich' post='896215' date='Jul 16 2010, 07:58 AM']No. Please, [i]please[/i] stop there, I beg of you For the sake of us all, everywhere, I mean, think of the children...[/quote] Do Dolphin still sell Tuners...?
  15. Awesome album and thanks to this thread I'm going to learn Walk between Raindrops now! ( incidentally, how do you walk between raindrops?)!
  16. If it's from Dolphin it may be a bit fishy.......
  17. Played our first Asian Wedding at a Bradford Banqueting venue last night, we were set to start at 6.30 to play in the guests as they arrived but were told by the venue staff that "nothing will go to time". Guests started to roll in around 7.15 pm and we played for 30 minutes and then did 45 minutes during the meal. Our final set of 15 minutes was curtailed to just 2 requests as all the men wanted to do Asian dancing, which was fine. We still finished 2 hours later than scheduled but made some good contacts and most importantly, got well fed!
  18. The advertiser said he had private bids which had taken it above £240.....I've asked him what the serial number is, surely the easiest wasy to see if it is genuine ( apart from going and looking)?
  19. [quote name='ahpook' date='Jul 4 2010, 12:57 AM' post='885177'] very sharp that man Sharp? That was just a 'Jazz' note..... Sorry, got in from a gig last night and obviously had too much energy to put an intelligent reply!
  20. Yes, don't stop believing......
  21. [quote name='TheRev' post='881657' date='Jun 30 2010, 10:05 AM']This works... I put a new set of Thomastik flatwounds on my Musicman just before rehearsal on Thursday and struggled all evening with a nasaly, twangy sound. On Friday I had the obligatory KFC on the way home from the pub and then had a good old noodle into the wee small hours. Did a gig on Saturday night and the strings sounded lovely and warm and mellow and yes, funky. I'm stil not going to rub my bass with a chicken though, It's just wrong.[/quote] Could you recommend a vegetarian/vegan option please....?
  22. Just sold a Jazz Bass to John, top guy to deal with, he paid upfront and waited patiently for 3 days for the next day delivery......
  23. I've got a spare ticket for Stevie Wonder, Jamiroqui, Corrine Bailey Rae, James Morrison, Melissa Etheridge etc this Saturday in Hyde Park as one of our party has dropped out. It's face value at £50 and can be collected in London this week or will be posted Recorded Delivery no later than Thursday evening. Ticket now gone, sold on Scarletmist.com
  24. Our singer will be wearing an orange jacket and picking up litter/helping, she's called Amy.....
