[quote name='Basszilla' post='596703' date='Sep 12 2009, 05:48 PM']Guys Bit of a cheeky post but if you dont ask.... Got a recording date next week and haven't owned or used a DI in aeons.... I won't be able to crank my matamp up too much as it's a home recording jobbie. Was wondering if anyone would lend me a nice DI for the week if I paid for special delivery back and forth (and obviously cover the cost of the unit if it failed on me) I haven't really got time to sort one out any other way. I would be happy to pay for the loan or you can have my bluebeard fuzz or wah for the week if anyone would like to try any of them.. Would be happy to try the hartke, aguilar or sansamp or anything nice and effective. thanks Tim[/quote] you could probably get a cheapie Behringer or something that would do the job for the same price as delivery back and forth. It would then be something worth keeping in the gig bag just in case.

yep making an effort on stage is vital. Here's some of my old band, who were described by the NME as Psychedelic Funk And my latest band. You'll never guess what kind of music we play (don't think we'll ever be in the NME either )

But I think I'm the only one bringing a Vintage so I'm still gonna bring it, especially to repeat last year's ear bleeding experiment [/quote] yep I'd be interested in A/Bing the Vintage with one of the Squires and a US P. (would that be A/B/Cing? )

[quote name='Tait' post='590693' date='Sep 5 2009, 02:55 PM']great! itll be at the SE bash then hopefully (hint hint )![/quote] will be!

Garethox bought my lights and smoke machine. He was very understanding about my need to finish my dissertation first, and made the pick up very easy. Would not hesitate to deal with again. Top banana!

I was unaware of the biscuit tradition, thanks for the heads up Yep will take lots of piccies, I imagine I will be the one grinning like a goon in every single pic . Does anyone else have a pic up that day? BTW no longer gonna go by train, it will be cheaper to buy a car!

[quote name='OldGit' post='589283' date='Sep 3 2009, 11:54 PM']Which September? [/quote] ROFL! 2 weeks time, booking the train ticket asap .

I will be picking it up Saturday 19th September!

[quote name='thepurpleblob' post='589085' date='Sep 3 2009, 08:39 PM']Yeh - the acoustics are terrible. They have huge inverted mushrooms suspended from the ceiling which are supposed to help but it's still like an echo chamber. I think quite a lot of work has been done since I was there so maybe it's better. It's just the wrong shape really.[/quote] well, if it was good enough for Sigue Sigue Sputnik

[quote name='thepurpleblob' post='589059' date='Sep 3 2009, 08:15 PM']I've played the Albert Hall. However, not the bass. I played Xylophone in a brass band competition (which we won by the way). Not cool Good luck with that..... it's actually a hell of a lot smaller than you think it's going to be.[/quote] Does the Albert Hall have a reputation for bad acoustics?

my Tech combo has played the Albert Hall. Not with me though, it used to belong to Squarepusher. Hope it works out for you.

just to clarify - is the guy doing set ups, in addition to the set up master classes, as discussed on page 8?

don't forget to post the finished bass in the Iceni thread. You too Spoombung! [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=58362"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=58362[/url]

[quote name='coasterbass' post='580427' date='Aug 25 2009, 04:55 PM']HA!! This thread is now ranked No.2 in the google search for 'Minster Lovell + Wedding'. [/quote] in which case I ought to impart some knowledge of great importance. It wasn't me

Blues name generator. [url="http://www.outliermusic.com/jokes_bluesname.htm"]http://www.outliermusic.com/jokes_bluesname.htm[/url] Apparently I'm [i]Blind Fingers Jones.[/i]

Jeff Pilson's live sound on Dokken's Beast from the East. I do realise it probably has more to do with the album producer, than him or his bass or amps. Also I want that sound from my fingers and not the pick like what he does.

Nikki Sixx. not his playing, more the running about, throwing shapes and posing.
