  1. they don't have to be mutually exclusive. Doing 4 part harmony exercises can be fun and educational.
  2. My lack of vocals has cost a few bands over the years. It's something I would like to sort, but where does one begin? Are there any (ideally free) resources to get one started?
  3. I'm expecting fade ins and outs, and lots of star wipes! 🤩
  4. Before covid I was going to arrange my appointment. Gonna have to get back to them.
  5. "rehearsals or recordings cannot be used for fun or leisure" so you can rehearse, but don't have fun doing it!
  6. Are there any issues in using an amp, but not using the speaker outs? So for example, bass into amp and then using headphones. Or using an amp as a DI, instead of a DI box?
  7. The Twins - first 2 albums early 80's politico-squat angst. But even then 'In the Name of Love' seemed to be the most popular song at gigs. Dylan - yup, going electric 🤯
  8. Neil Was the reason I bought that album. Vow Wow V.
  9. Reminds me of Josh Widdecombe discussing computers: he explained why when a file crashes he always refuses his laptop's invitation to send error reports: "I'm not a grass. Besides he's got far more on me than I've got on him!".
  10. Back in the day it was always fun to see what Madness came up with. Twisted Sister always had videos worth watching. Especially with Alice Cooper 😎
  11. Wunjo Bass, Denmark Street. Not an online retailer, but I have done business with them online, and would heartily recommend.
  12. and proof that just a couple of inches does make a difference
  13. Old Peavey combo's - bass and guitar - tend to be built like tanks, and seem to last forever (once you've given the potts a once over with contact spray ) but they don't seem to hold their value. At all.
  14. my Shukers are medium scale 32' and feel right. My Rob Allen Mouse, and Snapdragon folding bass are short scale. And feel right. The 'normal' 34' (and above) feel cumbersome for me. Yes I'm a shortarse
  15. Depends Learning at home for ones pleasure, then getting all the right notes in the right order. But if learning to play live, then very much depends on the line up of the band.
  16. I only got rid of mine because the neck was too chunky for my wee hands. It looked great and sounded great. Definitely punchy. Sat well in the mix in a band with guitar and keys. Yours is in a lot better condition than mine was. Mine had significant 'mojo' 😆
