  1. He was playing a fretted Jazz. Nice player.
  2. I saw Nim Sadot play in London with a Boss GT 10B. I am old and opinionated and think I know everything about everything. I had to actually ask him what was going on. It had a really good fretless sound.
  3. Looks like they did! Speaking of Black Sabbath, I’ve always been fascinated by the Born Again tour of 1983, where you played drums. It’s always been described as this psychotically dysfunctional thing where everything just went wrong. Has it all been exaggerated? 
I’m pretty sure it inspired the Spinal Tap thing with Stonehenge. We rehearsed with this Stonehenge and they got all the dimensions wrong. It was the opposite [of Spinal Tap] where instead of being tiny, it was so big it wouldn’t fit on the stage. The first gig we did was, I think, Toronto. It was this massive arena, but we couldn’t fit it in. We had to dump half of it. But I had a lovely time on the tour, and Ian Gillan had a good time. It was the only Black Sabbath either of us ever did, but we still had a ball. We loved it. https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/elos-bev-bevan-talks-rock-hall-induction-jeff-lynne-rift-121884/
  4. Classic posting at the same time!
  5. Details or radio silence. None of this hinting stuff!
  6. https://www.facebook.com/Retro169/
  7. Dunno, but did they not share drummer?
  8. I have used retro169 on facebook several times with excellent results.
  9. It fed my bass compulsion. There are significantly worse things I could be doing with my time. Mind you, there are some better things as well.
  10. Buy 2nd hand. Then when you come to change you get nearly all your money back and sink it into the next one. The "ONE" there is not. Only the chase there is.
  11. 2 for me please
  12. As in "if only......"
  13. Ooooooof! 5 string....mutter....mutter...... I went to price one up. Now I am sad.

    Lights! <swoon>
  15. They are funky and I like them!
  16. Not to worry, I might get something built one day.
  17. I did buy two. I then opened one of the intended basses and realised that it would not go in with the East Uni-pre in there already.
  18. Jaco did not need LEDs. However, they are just superb on a dark stage.
  19. As is playing with someone who is not a drummer but is sitting behind the kit. There have been times when I would have happily paid someone to come in.
  20. You have trained her well.
  21. But I do reserve the right to do something impractical and stupid.
