  1. think you're probably right, there's nothing else out there like it, maybe a change of presenter would help Jools certainly gets on my tits. I've been thinking for a while that it's been some time since anything big happened, it's either Rap or ballads these days it seems, tried watching a BBC4 program about Grime last night, they went on about the evolution of the Rap genre but it seemed pretty much the same to me apart from the words seemed even more incomprehensible and I had the subtitles switched on, but then, stuff you don't like does sound the same. I starting to sound like my Dad
  2. didn't know that, I'll investige
  3. just downloaded it for my B1on worked a treat, no problems, not that I'll be using it for altering patches much, I've got mine set up already for what I need and I don't have a lot of trouble altering the settings anyway, but it backs up what you've got which is piece of mind if my pedal goes tits up. the ToneLib forum could be useful as well
  4. the look on Chuck's face when he first hears Yoko's input at 1:19 is worth a look. Macca having Linda in Wings looks almost sensible at the side of Yoko doing vocals, what was Lennon thinking?
  5. listening to any demos on youtube is fairly pointless, it's what it sounds like in a band context that matters, assuming that's what you want it for, for instance I saw a band the other day, when the bass player was setting up his amp it sounded fine but when he played with the band the E string was booming and it disappeared into the mix on the d string
  6. although that's what she said, but what she demonstrated was don't play different open strings without damping, which is correct.
  7. Can't go along with that, may not be his best by a distance, but worst? don't think so, he wrote some real stinkers after the Beatles split
  8. Generally speaking big hits are not the best of anyone's work, high initial impact but soon get tiresome or maybe it's just that we hear them a lot
  9. I thought Forrest Gump wrote the lyrics 😲
  10. I enjoyed it and mostly agree with all of it for beginners, but any intermediate players should have figured these tips out by now otherwise they're not intermediate
  11. this has got to be the cheapest option, I use the version with no expression pedal, exactly the same sounds as the B3, but no DI https://www.amazon.co.uk/Zoom-B1xon-Bass-Multi-Pedal/dp/B00K5LGSDC/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_sims?ie=UTF8
  12. I saw Dr Feelgood at a festival the other year, no original members they were awful the guitarist played nothing like Wilko
  13. When I decided to start playing again after a 25 year break I got in touch with 3 guys over the internet told them about my previous history and the the subject of a band name came up they suggested we use the old band name Verbal Warning even though I'm the only original member and I'm playing Bass instead of guitar. That was 13 years ago and I still get people telling me they saw the original band, nobody cares it's no where near the same band
  14. oh dear, the band I play in always do Jilted John and on occasions All The Small things
  15. bad behaviour has to get more and more outrageous to get noticed (and upset parents) the Pistols Grundy TV interview seems quite tame now
  16. of course one of the reasons Rap might be popular is precisely because it upsets so many middle aged fuddy duddy's, as did Elvis in the mid 50's
  17. sounds like my Dad when he first heard Hendrix
  18. +1, or buy one, I've got one of these, great piece of kit https://www.andertons.co.uk/guitar-dept/guitar-wireless-systems/line-6-relay-g10-digital-wireless-guitar-system
  19. his hearing is probably f*cked, treble is the first thing to go, tell him to get a hearing test.
  20. something like this could be the answer https://www.amazon.co.uk/Adhesive-Wheel-Balance-Weights-Strips/dp/B004UADSZA
  21. Pure Highway, its a DAB radio tuner that connects to your existing radio, been discontinued now and replaced by something more expensive but there's similar products out there https://www.amazon.co.uk/Majority-Journey-Bluetooth-Handsfree-Streaming/dp/B07DNH6YQB/ref=pd_lpo_vtph_23_bs_t_1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=0H0K8KBX5MGKPFRDH4A5
  22. That's the trouble as a rule cars don't come with it fitted as standard I've got one of those highway things
  23. there's loads of variety on DAB stations, lots of Rock, but a surprising number of people don't know about it or don't care, and reception in cars is patchy, but on FM it's all the same sort of middle of the road modernish chart stuff, Capital, Heart etc
  24. my thoughts exactly, there's not enough good bands to go round, so people stop going to weekly music venues just to check out the band, I've seen some shockers at a local pub near to me, plus some landlords think it's ok to do things on the cheap by booking acts singing to backing tapes
