  1. Guys and Gals - it's a bit of fun! New IEMs are part of PA, so T2 fail under the rules which are quite clear. But so what? If you're pro or semi-pro then buy what you need to do the job to the standard required, but accept that the challenge is as written and not really aimed at you. It's at those of us <ahem> who like buying stuff because it's interesting/fun/cool/collectable or whatever but we don't need it and really should be practicing instead. @SimonK If your church has just gone IEM and you need to buy a Behringer P1 then it’s still a fail, but nobody here will excomunicate you.
  2. They still get quite heavy, or at least muscular wiith Peggy's bass way up in the mix, just not obnoxiously loud. Back to the topic...
  3. You don't get these problems at Fairport Convention gigs. Though if you are sat at the back you can be blinded by the lights reflecting of the sea of grey hair in front of you.
  4. I would say It's a modification not a repair, same as swapping the pickups to get a different sound. The aim of the challenge it to play what you already have, so definitely a T1 fail. Buying a bass for a new project would be too. But the challenge is only to make you stop and think, it's not a religion 🙃
  5. 🎶 'So I said to Mrs Scrumpy, please bring me the pies She said "We've only had crumble here since 1969"' 🎶
  6. And again - Wow!!
  7. https://www.guitarchat.co.uk/forum/15-amps-and-cabs/ GuitarChat is more current, but I just searched this site first, I didn't check how old the posts were.
  8. @rwillettHere be dragons, and worse: https://www.basschat.co.uk/forum/99-guitar-amplifiers/
  9. The hall I have booked for the Midlands Bash is £180. I figure there will be about a dozen, so I plan to say £14 each without food and anything over goes to Nordorf Robbins along with raffle profits. There's a risk to me of course. The SW Bash has been fab with food included, but I would very happily pay more to cover the true cost and bring sandwiches.
  10. That looks really very good! If you had an Elf amp you could do all the printed bits in TE green to match. 😃 Why do you need a second cab? Or is that the sort of question one shouldn't ask...?
  11. Which was that? I only really recognised "The Whole of the Moon" and "Dignity" I should also shout out to @Steve Lawson - as it was a recommendation on his BandCamp pages.
  12. https://karinepolwart.bandcamp.com/album/karine-polwarts-scottish-songbook Quite an amazing collection of very unusual covers.
  13. Our first cat was tortoiseshell, so was named Pickle as she looked like a jar of Branston. The next was Jet as she was black. This one was named Pandora by the rescue home, shortened to Panda by us. Trevor (as in Horn) sounds like the perfect name for your cat already. Thinks he owns the place and is in charge, everyone eles will think he's wonderful, but you pay the bills!
  14. I was going to invite Bass Bros, as you can't just pop into their showroom as you can with Bass Direct. I have an idea for a speaker too. Actually I have two ideas, quite different. I think one speaker for 20 mins in enough, or would people like two? There is no separate room.
  15. Eight weeks after a hip op. You'll be a lot more mobile than you expect, the hip will be pain free and completely mobile, but you'll still be in some pain from the surgery healing and the nerves reconnecting. Probably OK for driving, but a whole day of standing talking rubbish may be a bit much. See how it goes - if you can get someone to give you a lift it would be great to see you, but look after yourself first. (My mother had hers done last June and stayed with us for a few weeks afterwards. Medically she could have gone home earlier but was enjoying the company too much )
