Oops - missed that! Kindof vaguely inspired by Siphon & Carbuncle.

Erm, that cover isn't by Yes. Roger Dean is still my favourite artist, though. (Avatar is a total rip-off of his work.)

Too far for me to go; shame it's in the South West! 🙂

That is as bad an album cover as I've ever seen. The Roger Dean covers are part of the Yes product. Their 80s computer graphics ones worked. David Fairbrother-Roe's cover art on Olias was in keeping with the image.

That's not bad - thanks.

I went last year and my memories are: A 70 miles 2-hours+ drive to get there, including queueing at a junction with poorly sync'd traffic lights. Having a pleasant chat with the Bright Onion folks (but they said they couldn't do the pedal I wanted). A good chat with a chap on another stand who had restored some vintage amps. Standing at a table wanting to ask something but the bloke there was just talking about himself, loudly and without pausing for breath, so I wandered off; I went back later and he was still at it, so I gave up. Quite a small show for the asking price and not a lot there. Going into Brighton after (haven't been for years), taking a stroll around the lanes, and having a rather expensive (but nice) meal. I didn't bother this time 'round.

So, the government are going to look into things... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c20r26p7d0ro IMHO, the dynamic pricing is pretty disgraceful; imaging queueing for hours and then finding the price had trebled! It's manipulation, playing on the gambling & auction fever psyche.

Hmm - I thought "That's a great into to the song", but 4 minutes in it appears to be the whole thing. And then a load of shouty stuff.

I was wondering what post metal is too; I might check it out.

It's got very de-personalised. Then again, stadium-sized gigs are very detached for me too.

I just plain don't like added handling fees, and so-on.

When do the tickets go on sale?

I immediately guessed it was @ash when I saw Lancaster.

Well, it has got a graphic eq to tweak things. Trace did that little 5" speaker HF unit, if you manage to pick one of thos up somewhere.

OUTPUT!!!

Lemmy once said that Led Zeppelin defined the vocabulary of rock music.

Get a doubleneck!

The singer needs a rest.

Or the Deep Purple version... Intro. Verse. Chorus. ORGAN SOLO!!! Verse. Chorus. GUITAR SOLO!!! Chorus. Chorus. Fade.

I don't think so - the difference will be in the fingers.

Well, Beady Eye did do a song called Beatles and Stones. Oasis did "Wonderwall", said "All the roads are winding", ....

I think that Rics are the best basses money can buy; however something like 99% of people who state an opinion say they are awful, but of course they are wrong! My headless Status Graphite is my second favourite bass. My Warwicks are my preferred 5-strings, though a couple of my wooden-necked Status ones are very playable.

Different perspectives on the have-played front... Rics feel natural to me and Wals are big and clunky. Status I like, Thunderbirds are not for me, I have Steinberger Spirit guitar & 5-string basses but they are 2 frets out of position for me, I have a Spector Performer and it's distinctly mediocre.

There seems to be an echo.

I have an Ashbory, which is pretty much an electric uke bass. (Don't try and do slides, though - you'llburn your fingers!)
