fleabag

I didnt miss it, mostly because i never seemed to get beyond a level...i just seemed to plateau. I also got fed up dragging so many bits and pieces to and from gigs, and the space they took up. I actually found bass an easier instrument to play. First time with a band playing bass was a revelation. I still mess around on a kit occasionally, but would never go back to it

I gigged for many years as a drummer, and threw it in around 18 years ago for bass. I'd been twiddling the bass even while i was drumming, and in the end, i got the bug. I appreciate a good drummer, and can obviously tell in a heartbeat whether they're one i can lock in with. Our current drummer is superb, and better than i ever was, but having been a drummer, i have respect for the art, and how they can influence me to play better.

Oooh, you trickster , rickster

Am i right in thinking his brother Miles managed the Police ? Among many other bands

Ah..cheers my man

DR Sunbeams. Peachy

Ditto I guess without realising it, my weight appears to be on my right leg when gigging. No shape throwing for me, or foot trouble ( just an aching leg ) Mrs bag couldn't give a McToss

Not a fault report but just curious at how someone managed to reply to an ad in the Wanted forum, when there isn't even a reply box ? Stumped Acacia Ave. Tonbrdge Wells https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/334605-looking-a-5-st-electic-double-bass/ Not expecting a reply if the answer is classified and only revealed on a need to know basis. Having said that, im prepared to die if you do tell

Nah, it's working. I just checked

Maybe to hide the fact that it's Fender ?

More dream like than optimistic

Not the biggest problem bass on Ebay, really

Got Kick Inside and Lionheart, both treasures, but after that ...just particular tracks. The duet with Gabriel was appallingly sickly sweet

Yup i have the option, but some people have sales in their sigs as well as in the FS forums, which can be quite handy

I'll have a look at that SP. I use Firefox so sounds like it could be useful

Am i the only that finds pointless gifs in siggies a pain in the rectal region ? Can there be some kind of limit on sigs ... like NO gifs ? Just asking. Bit grumpy, i know Scroll down ... you can't miss it

Ah...yes. It's called delusions of grandeur , methinks

He's no fool on the hill, for sure

Yup - thats one of the albums featuring Shrieve that i mentioned. The other one by the same band is Visitors. I prefer the first one that you posted though

This is the modern world. Fakery everywhere. The fakery is even fake.

This has to be the smallest and lightest rig i've ever owned
