Sad to hear that - been there myself and only just now got out of it. Why not start an off-topic thread with your skill set stated ? Maybe someone here knows something … maybe their employer is hiring, which did actually happen to me this time.

A link’s fine too.

no picture porn? WtAF? #horrified

Lest they turn to the dark side. 😱 I did my best to persuade two ladies to the righteous path at my OM night on Thursday.

Welcome

I think you’ll find that “being a hopeless case” won’t mark you out of the crowd here

Are you saying that it’s not done out of boundless generosity and a spirit of helping the great unwashed in difficult times? 🤷

My OM night was brilliant. i had been chatting to two singers (sisters) who are both bass curious. Neither had sung with a band before, always tapes. So we made it happen. Then we did their mum as well. Yes, she wanted a band-backing experience too. She did Breakfast at Tiffany’s with someone playing double bass very well. I got called up to play The Chain all the way through, then one sister joined in with the hostess, a professional singer, for Dreams (me on bass) and the other sister with hostess for sweet home Alabama (me on bass predictably) . One clearly has great taste as she admired my sire v7/5 in metallic CAR

Even with rounds I prefer old ones. Not a fan of springy, super snappy sound

@tubbybloke68 ”made in USA” equals “magic wood. “ ✨🦄

Yes

This is exactly what I have battery life around 8 hours and a double-headed lead https://amzn.eu/d/eVlDM7z

I had basically these, but with a weird wood grain effect. Rechargeable and sensibly come with a double headed lead so you charge both at once they pop up with money-off quite regularly on Amazon

I’m in the wrong business all I need now is to become female, young and passably pretty with at least average presentational skills and I’ve got it made 💰

Have you just joined ? 😳 WTAF? I’ve got the stake, kindling and rope … “yes, of course” and “just because” are the only answers needed to your two questions

By the late herbie flowers. Set to record

I wasn’t a roses fan but I did enjoy his work. Few effects and very funky He seemed like a nice guy too. Was he not also a member ?

I’ll bring a sire v7/5, an acoustic bass and a bh250 with a hard-hitting cab straight outta Compton … I mean Coalville though some days you could easily confuse them and an extension lead

Total loser. He’ll never amount to anything. I honestly don’t know why you’re wasting your time. 😝

Why not get a guitarist to fill in for you? I mean, it’s only four strings which is two less to cope with. It’s easy, innit?

Since he sometimes comes with you, I was joking that it was him…..

Just had an eerie “Deja vu” feeling - like I’ve been there before

Surely @neepheid would approve ?

Hired CGI starting 12/1/26 if anyone works there and knows it to be a 21st century version of “the satanic mills” featuring Dickensian levels of worker oppression, please tell me @Richard R the original people I told you about dicked me around from mid-September till today when they finally worked out they didn’t have the budget for my clearly planet-sized talent (joke! I’m not a guitard…) CGI called me exactly four minutes later to make an offer. It’s been a rollercoaster of a day. Huge relief at Chateau Geek. Been treated to a fancy Costa by Madame Geek which indicates approval
