One of the guys I went to school with was the guitarist on the Tom jones/Art Of Noise version. P

My band is playing the above venue on the 26th. Free entry I think. Cheers P

'Late October' now. No worry. P

Bob Rock producing.

I'm surpised this has generated so many replies! Let me say I adored Too Fast For Love (I still do) and my Crue-going gig credentials weren't too poor early on either; I saw them at the aforementioned Donington (I actually saw the Andy Kershaw interview being filmed for OGWT too, although we had no idea who Kershaw was at the time), London's Dominion Theatre, Hammersmith (two nights with Cheap Trick), Wembley, but something [on vinyl for me at least], was missing after this. SATD is one of those albums that I have very fond memories of, but retrospectively (Looks That Kill aside) doesn't stand the test of time. I would cite the John Corabi period 'Motley Crue' album as my favourite one...it's a wonderful, mature, gritty album and it's a pity that they didn't get the chance to develop the line up further. Gone was Vince's whiney vocal and everything is just huge. If you haven't listened to it, give it a punt. P

I'm a user and think the goldie is hideous!

As I'm a paid up member of Spotify, I've decided to locate and listen to a bunch of stuff that I will openly declare I [i]loved [/i]when it was released, none of which I presently own. The experiment has been going pretty well to be honest until I hit upon SATD. Don't get me wrong, I adored Motley Crue, well, at the time. Happy memories of being bitten on the arm by Tommy Lee at Donington (and well, Donington generally), but it's thirty years later and I'm struggling to see the attraction. It's a truly [i]awful [/i]album; there's nothing to redeem it. Oh, well, next stop Polytown. P

Great that it went well...I really hope to make it next year (Nik knows the reasons behind my absence). Would love to see some more pics! Best Paul

At the very least, I will try my darndest to get in and show my face if possible.

I'm sorry to be a pain in the ass, but I'm going to have to pull out (my father in law has been hospitalised overnight and realistically I can't just leave my wife and go off on a jolly). Also Darren the drums is sidelined with a very bad bout of the flu. I was so looking forward to meeting up and even Darren had tempted me with a brekkie at McDonalds in Camberley. Sorry folks P

I met Mark White once. Worst BO ever. You could taste it. <shudder> P

[quote name='Walker' timestamp='1379348989' post='2211564'] My VT Bass rack is due to arrive next week - yeah! [/quote] Where from? I had it in my basket at Th*m*nn, but it's not listed anymore. P

I did one a while ago on a six string Strat body for a lark - I don't have the body any more so no pics. We just followed a You Tube video...there's plenty out there. Just make sure the body is primed to your desired base colour and rubbed down so the paint will adhere. Dustbin of water, dunk in guitar body, add the paints (we used little pots of model paint), mix lightly, pull out body slowly. Allow to dry somewhere. It was an OK project...a bit of Sunday fun. P

[quote name='Cosmo Valdemar' timestamp='1376244242' post='2171248'] I wonder if they'll make a Leeds version... [/quote] There's a guy in the US who converts Tech 21 stomps into 1U rack units. He can add additional functionality too. Very good stuff apparently. In addition, yes, I'm gassing for one of these. Will probably dump the BDDI and upgrade to a 4U rack. Looking forward to this. P

I've got one of these. Strung BEAD; solid as anything.

OK...Darren has confirmed. I'll bring my Waterstone Tom Petersson12-string bass too unless Warwickhunt has bought it by then P

Pencil me in. I'm going to see whether I can make it...if so I'll bring two or three thunderbirds and my Ashdown/Hartke stuff. As an aside, I know a great drummer (Darren Oliver-Jones of Basingstoke based 'My Never Time') who will almost definitely handle some of the drum duties. P
