  1. You'd be kicked outta there so fast your cheesy feet wouldn't touch the ground. πŸ˜„
  2. I've always fancied busking. If you're really good, obviously totally dependant on factors of footfall, location, weather, time of day / night - I reckon a good solo or duo can gross Β£3 a minute (Β£180 per hour), and that's with a setup no more sophisticated than the 'big issue' lady... If you're a band, with some trustworthy mates as bucket persons, playing off a flatbed truck in a pub carpark or near a campus, burger van etc - Β£300+ an hour? Elvis Costello in disguise, with just an acoustic, a fishing stool and an upturned hat would gross Β£300 per hour, easy, I reckon.
  3. πŸ—―οΈ damn swear filter... πŸ˜„
  4. Don't you start. I'm trying to stick some 12V rope lights under ma' kitchen cupboards - and the buggers keep peeling back off! 😬
  5. Aye, lush. That reshaping of the headstock absolutely makes it for me. πŸ‘ May I ask - Why strip the paint off in the beginning? Wouldn't it be a lot easier to just Scotchbrite and paint over the top?
  6. I'll go and see if it's impervious to wee... πŸ˜ƒ edit: I best wait until the street light goes out at 12... edit: Dammit, splashed straight back on me and my shoes... bloody Batmobiles. 😬
  7. Probably like a small hat that would fit a sheepdog. Yup, I can only pray that they're still there in the morning. Is it your car? If so, that's quite some trouble to go to for a joke! πŸ€— If it is your car, I will set my sheepdog on you, butt. πŸ˜„
  8. Lush it was, with a Portobello mushroom the size of an actual hat! πŸ˜€ Returned home to find somebody has parked their car outside my house, and even that didn't provoke me to kill. 🀐 My best regards to your good self, and your good lady. πŸ‘
  9. You know perfectly well what it is, and how clever it was... I've been out for a massive steak dinner with Mrs 4000 tonight, and nothing you can say will upset me. πŸ˜ƒ πŸ€— πŸ˜›
  10. Nice. Seems I didn't know it all along! πŸ™‚
  11. He must have had his knuckles surgically removed. It's a common modification for serious reggae players - so I've heard. πŸ˜‰
  12. He must have unfeasibly short fingers, is all I can assume... πŸ˜„
  13. You're having a pop at @Reggaebass ? Again?? When are you going to leave the poor fella alone??? 😬
  14. *Googles 'anagram'* πŸ˜ƒ
  15. I don't believe many folks would agree with waste like that. There are starving children in Africa who don't even own a Gibson, etc.
  16. If I was going to do something that people would find obscene and/or disgusting - I'd have the decency to do it in a darkened room, and in private.
  17. Absolutely, the technique section is like a barren wasteland... so is the recording section.
  18. Is that where the derogatory term 'war paint' comes from? ... of course it does. How could I be stupid enough to ask that... unless I'm mad of course.
  19. Broken biscuits... you'd think Gibson wouldn't have been stupid enough to have contractors with camera phones do that out of doors, with a catapillar tractor ffs... either they've been royally fitted up, or they deserve the bad publicity, or both.
