I missed Knobinson Crusoe because I was too engrossed in Mary, Mungo and Knob and Captain Knobwash, obviously.

Might be as well to leave it cupped or even cup it more, my beer belly is in reluctant agreement.

That"s wild, emailing you with a rough graphic of an idea and there it is, made, brilliant!

In summary @Bunionand @Frank Blank Mick Karn ✅

...and with no idea of musical theory either. I read an interview with Japan once, one of them remarked that the rest of the band would write a new song without him and when he turned up he'd have written a bass line just responding to the title and more often or not they would rewrite the entire song around his bass line because it was so good.

Me too until he went base over apex one evening when I saw them, hilarious.

@Bunion saves me having to choose between Mick Karn and Jah Wobble, so cheers and here's some classic Wobble...

Vibronics Brain Damage 👍

If I had a time machine and could go back and choose an instrument in my youth to learn it would be the trombone and that's mainly down to Rico Rodriguez and...

No, but the best since Extremities, Dirt and Various Repressed Emotions.

There have been two albums since 2010s Absolute Dissent. MMXII (2012) and Pylon (2015).

Having (apparently) attended a Burning Man festival in the mid-nineties I can categorically state that I remember very, very little about it apart from fleeting images that made me rather concerned that I had fallen out of the sky into either a Mad Max film or a scene from The Wicker Man.

This describes perfectly well over 90% of my very favourite music.

iPlayer here.

I didn't know she was on the line up, just happened across the set on iPlayer, best thing so far by a mile.

Ah, I didn't realise... Róisín Murphy ✅

I almost bought one of these a few years back, I was amazed at the quality and the sound for the price, it was a little to heavy for me (surprisingly) but all in all cracking basses.

Sleaford Mods ✅ Idles ✅ Billy No Mates ✅ ...the rest of Glastonbury can do one.

Is she after a Mustang?

I must refrain from swearing but that is f****** amazing.

Excellent! Scott Firth, very loud bass but usually clear as well, he's a great player and the marvellous Lu Edmonds on guitar, very interesting fellow.

I would feel exactly the same, in your situation I would have left too, but not quietly.
