Just got home from our gig, nice easy one, finished playing at 11.30. The landlady paid us £50 more than our usual fee of £200, she said we were selling ourselves too cheap, maybe we need to look at putting our fees up.

Here are four to start with Journey. Foreigner. Fleetwood Mac. The Eagles.

IMO your guitarist is taking the p*ss. He is taking you for a mug.

One would question, based on this principle that The Stones aren’t The Stones without Wyman.

Thank god Barrett left, the best thing ever. We would never have had Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Were Here otherwise.

Most if not all of Thin Lizzie stuff is a semitone out.

I would not lend any of my gear out, even to mates. Its OK getting an agreement if it gets damaged they pay for the repairs, once something has been damaged it’s never the same. Lets say they knock a small chip or dent out of a bass, to me that would require a full repaint to make good, the bass then loses its originality.

Babs is married to the actor Robert Powell.

The choreography was done by Flick Colby.

This might be a bit controversial - Pans People were very good looking ladies but not particularly great dancers.

American Graffiti

Not sure, but Peter Kay can according to another thread on this site.

I used to listen to Radio 2 all the time, it is now playing stuff Inwould consider to be bordering Radio 1, now only listen to Mr J Walker on Sunday afternoons. My daily choice of station is now Planet Rock and I enjoy about 70% of what’s played, not into Motörhead, Metallica etc.

Ant McPartlin arrested over suspected drink drink car crash.

Old Chinese saying “ a pub is only as good as the people who run it”

Blimey this guy is good, flicked through all the 20 plus licks. Almost makes you feel like your own playing is very basic and scratching the surface after 30 years of playing in my case.

Please contact us at Hasduwn Ingenering Esssex 😄

What about a Ford Capri 😄

Exactly +1

If certain songs are speeded up by the band, the vocalist can have some serious issues. Two songs that come to mind that have a lot of words crammed into the songs at their normal tempo, Two Princes - Spin Doctors and Too Hard To Handle - Black Crowes, play these too fast at your peril and the vocalist will not be able to fit the words in or catch a breath.

Cheers, I know what your talking about now.

What’s the drill hole near the bridge in the photograph ? Interested to know why it’s there or what could have been attached there.

I have one exactly the same except with a clear Perspex scratchplate.

Our gig has been cancelled tonight because our vocalist decided he was not prepared to travel, the other three of us were still up for it. Not a good situation.
