  1. Included with your Musicians Union membership, if any of you are members?
  2. So the above flashed up during a Google for something else. I've been trying to find out about it, but can't find anything. Has anyone else heard of these heads, and/or have any info? Ta!
  3. Me too, no interest at all in going to any of the big - expensive - festivals as a punter. But I'll happily go to the big biker rallies (Rock & Blues Custom Show, Bulldog Bash, etc) which are pretty much the same thing but with more bikes.
  4. My headstock, inspired by the old double bass extended fret board headstocks.
  5. Around 5% of all road traffic accidents in 2019 involved at least 1 driver or rider over the legal alcohol limit. So, statistically driving drunk must be safer, as sober drivers cause around 95% of the accidents.
  6. Here you go: https://m.imdb.com/title/tt8079248/
  7. You don't have to be Tony Franklin to play 'Running up that hill', and play it well.
  8. "some of the people on here" are regularly gigging musicians who often learn a song and nail the performance.
  9. But it so easily could have done, and that's the point.
  10. I lost my love, to a UK Sub
  11. I think that everything you mention makes it easier. All the musicians have to do is learn the song and turn up and play it. They don't have to worry about bringing a PA and getting a decent FOH sound, they don't have to worry about promoting the event and/or selling tickets, and they will have nothing to do with setting up and operating the TV cameras. As for the song itself, we're hardly talking Stanley Clarke levels of virtuosity, any half decent bass/guitar/keys/drums player should be able to nail it.
  12. One to clean, one to polish?
  13. I'm amazed Charlie Harper is still alive, let alone still gigging! 🤣
  14. Peter, Paul, and Mary, the early years?
  15. " do you want to join a small band?" "only if you think I'm small enough!" Spike Milligan.
  16. in the 70's a fair number of skinheads had the web tattoo on their necks. Comes around goes around...
  17. Glad y'all said it, I thought the same too.
  18. This and an emery board.
  19. If we're talking about sold a lot of records a long time ago, look at Saturday's headliner 😉
  20. Some bands (Supergrass, and McFly) are surprisingly low in the lineups, and on smaller stages, when considering their record sales and placings in the Hit Parade.
  21. Wow, that just kept on going! Is everyone getting paid? Can't see how a profit is made if they are 🤔
  22. I loved my Hamer Blitz bass, but I couldn't reach the furthermost tuning pegs. I had to pull it across, to tune it.
  23. Many years ago, there was no difference between recorded performances after much booze, when compared to no booze. These days I'm feeling it after the first pint, and more than 3 means severe hangover. So it's a no from me. Plus I don't drink and drive.
  24. 'Ape' snobbery!
