Careful! Read the small print on products claiming to be sugar free "excessive consumption may result in laxative effects" 😬

Not sure if this counts but I've just got an EUB which I'll be using in one of my bands. I've never had one before, or played one in anger. It's a different technique and I can already see there is a lot of practice I need to do.

I bought it! 😁 I'll write more later, but first impressions were it's easy to play, although gonna have to brush up on technique. I thought I'd find my own way, and played quite happily in the shop for about 20 minutes. However when I got home my picking fingers were aching, so I'm gonna need some advice!

Noel has a £20million divorce so Oasis may be reforming? Does anyone care who the rest of the band will be? Will Liam claim to have a sore throat and bunk off a few gigs, or will there be a fight a few songs in which will mean the rest of the reunion gigs are cancelled? More news tomorrow...

Easier said than done. Especially if you're fighting genetics too 😟

You can if you freeze it!

Where does one post a NED (new electric-upright-bass day) thread? 😁

Before and after pics?

My main guitar is a Silver Series Tele. I'm yet to play a Fender USA Tele that's any better. The Silver Series is so underrated, they are effectively Japanese Fenders, but sell for bargain prices.

This and this... Not my pics, but I have gigged a decent sized pub with these.

Snapdragon folding bass. Proper bass, short scale, and folds smaller than a uke for transport

Was that gig in Liverpool?

I already have more books than I could possibly read in my lifetime. So what do I do? Yup, buy more books. TBF this isn't much of a problem as I tend to buy ebooks. But in terms of FX pedals, I have multi FX , and synth pedals I still haven't got round to learn how to use. So what am I doing? Yup, looking at the BC for sale forum because there's a pedal now on sale that I really wanted when I was younger. I have no practical application for it's use, it won't suit any of my bands. But...

I was wondering the same thing! 🤣

The cd's are from the studio I used. Normal cd's work fine, but I'm still getting the 'Files Ready to be Written to the Disc' option under the audio tracks.

Hi all I've happened across a bunch of CD-R's and CD-RW's which have stems from recordings I did about 20 years ago. With each disc I'm getting the the following. What must I do?

Wednesday. People have been away so this was the first rehearsal in about 5 weeks. We were all worried about being a bit rusty, but as we went along confidence came back and it was bl00dy good fun! 😁

Find out what works for you to aid memory, and use your preferred learning style. Visual Learners: Use sheet music, diagrams, or colour-coded notes. Visual aids like charts can help you see patterns and structures in the music. Auditory Learners: Listen to recordings of the song repeatedly. Try singing or humming your part to reinforce your memory through sound. Kinesthetic Learners: Engage in physical practice. Play along with the song or use hand movements to associate actions with notes. Break the song down, divide it into smaller sections. Focus on mastering one section at a time before moving on to the next. And regularly practice each section. Repetition strengthens neural pathways, making it easier to recall the music later.

How much do they get paid?
