Happy Jack

I was the same. I had 14 basses and I dropped one off for some work and found that I was down to 13 basses, and I thought 'I'm not going to let this happen again'.

Yes, it can be a lot of fun comparing the way different producers write about their contributions. Visconti (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Tony-Visconti-Autobiography-Bowie-Brooklyn/dp/0007229453/ref=asc_df_0007229453/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=310081590442&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=4123669782585546034&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9045963&hvtargid=pla-467232679897&psc=1) is at one end of the spectrum - it was me! me! me! George Martin (https://www.amazon.co.uk/All-Need-Ears-George-Martin/dp/0312114826/ref=sr_1_1?crid=ZIC2FSN6TDTX&dchild=1&keywords=all+you+need+is+ears+by+george+martin&qid=1612462079&s=books&sprefix=all+you+need+is+ears%2Cstripbooks%2C145&sr=1-1) is absolutely at the other end - oh I did very little really, it was all 'the boys'. Glyn Johns (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sound-Man-Recording-Rolling-Zeppelin/dp/0147516579/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3EQUN7W8MM2LX&dchild=1&keywords=sound+man+glyn+johns&qid=1612462139&s=books&sprefix=sound+man%2Cstripbooks%2C145&sr=1-1) falls almost exactly in the middle. All three of those books are - for different reasons and in their own way - an excellent read.

I never knew his father's name ...

Absolutely fascinating.

... then you'd be living in North Korea.

I don't drive a Transit.

One control? Nonsense! I can see four ...

Just to keep things tidy.

And, of course, objects in the mirror are closer than you think.

I'm afraid that 'affordable' probably needs clarification, and I'd suggest quite strongly that you go pre-owned rather than new. You can buy a perfectly playable pre-owned DB at the £300 level but it won't set your world on fire. At £1000 you get a very different experience.

Love that.

Bizarrely enough, I did wonder the same thing. Seriously. My (limited) experience of playing in a band with two female vocalists is that, after an unfair division of the spotlight, there will have been a bust-up in the band room later.

As the OP, I feel I have to ask @Jakester if he understood the title & subtext of this thread. The band on display comprises three musicians and two pairs of boobs. The boobs can't sing worth a damn, but they have very clearly and obviously been presented in a particular way for a particular reason. I didn't do that, nobody here on Basschat did that, and I think we can all take a pretty good guess at who did that and why. If they don't want to be objectified, then why are they dressed like that? If you're determined to be offended on behalf of the boobs, then the least you can do is to contact The Devil's Dumplings first, just to see if they're offended. While you're talking to them, do feel free to point out that their clothing was perhaps a tad revealing and that everybody would find it far easier to focus on what could be loosely described as their 'singing' if they were to wear baggy Arran sweaters under duffel coats.

... And Judge Me For My Music Incidentally, quite possibly the worst version of that song that I have ever heard. If only there had been something else to take my mind off it.

I don't do relics, especially unconvincing ones - that upper bout? Eurgh! And why couldn't he rout the pickup sockets to be the same shape as the pickups? Ah well ... each to his own.

WronGuns don't kill people ...

Sorry mate, it was a (failed) try for irony ...

At gigs, of course. 🙄

Coming soon to a pub near you. Or not, as the case may be ... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-55794674

Nah ... your timekeeping has improved. 😉

I'm sure I don't know what you mean ...

Outstanding! Then you also saw @Silvia Bluejay running the sound for us, as always.
