  1. I’m a huge electronica fan, always have been. Just yesterday I was listening to the first two Human League albums, they’ve never been topped imho. Metamatic by John Foxx today.
  2. Welcome!
  3. Thanks for this, excellent.
  4. Exactly. I used Laney almost exclusively with a thrash band I was in, 500w head 1x15, 4x10 and a Stingray, great sound. I hammered that gear, volume and transit wise, it never let me down.
  5. Yes, obviously, but that’s a subjective matter... obviously.
  6. Paul Gardiner was a bass player who played great song serving lines in my humble opinion, personally I don’t think there’s a bigger compliment than what you played served the song.
  7. Hate is a strong word but in this case it applies... 😁
  8. Having spent a week or two trying to get to grips with the atonal insanity of Stan Kenton’s City of Glass... ...I was happy to hear the iPod re-establish a modicum of straight-up sense by randomly selecting Back in Black, what a killer track...
  9. A list... Three words currently being woefully misused... a) Iconic b) Literally c) Decimated I also abhor High Rising Terminal, obviously. One more thing that really grinds my gears is the current trend of beginning an answer to a question with a drawn out “So...” or, particularly prevalent at the moment amongst politicians (I think I remember Tony Blair starting this) starting the answer to a question with “Look...”, a confrontational beginning to an answer that invariably avoids the initial question.
  10. This I need to hear.
  11. If you don’t mind me asking, what’s a technical punk band?
  12. Is that The Wimpy? What did you expect..? 😁
  13. I just purchased (this morning) a Petersen Stroboclip HD. So far pretty impressed.
  14. Ha! They are great! Thanks for this, so refreshing.
  15. Sounds like a reasonable Saturday night, no?
  16. I’m on it (like a Jane Austen bonnet).
  17. I was grinning ear to ear.
  18. This is exactly where I went next...
  19. Thanks Sir, these might be the answer, I thought they only did the side dots! Cheers.
  20. I was about to be disparaging about Rush but that’s because I was disparaging about Rush when I was a teenager. Three things about that... a) I could be a bit of a tnuc, especially about music, when I was a teen and, far more importantly... b) I have never listened to a Rush album or even a Rush track in my life. ...then I was going to say everyone I knew who liked Rush back when I was young was a silly billy but, on reflection, it turns out that... c) everyone I knew who liked Rush were thoroughly decent folk and, actually, I was the silly billy. ...food for thought, there.
  21. I use an iPad during rehearsals and have a specific clamp for it so no fear of it falling.
  22. Chris Squire’s Rickenbacker sound was a major influence on me, unfortunately by the time I was first involved in bands that influence had been obscured by punk and dub a little later I realised Chris Squire’s position had been usurped by JJ Burnel.
  23. Are Luminlays the dots only?
