Stub Mandrel

We keep getting problems due to Google calendar sometimes taking weeks or months to show up entries across all of the band members. Sometimes it won't synch between my phone and pc, and it's refused to receive entries fom outlook for a year or two (it used to work). So... what's as simple to use as Google calendar but more reliable?

There's something almost pathetic about those who think they are gatekeepers of being a 'real bass player' according to what brand, value or style of bass you play.

Hi Sam! I must admit I'd heard a lot about the band but not much of the music. It was a brilliant night and always great to see a band totally relaxed, enjoying themselves and giving their best!

In that case we are both on the album 'Live Chronicles' 😎

They are like old friends.

My brother bought a 1962 SG junior for a steal before the prices went silly. He was told it was a refin. The luthier (yes a real one who makes teles from scratch) who set it up it beford he bought it swears he didn't need to refin it and it's all original. Then the pots went scratchy. With 1962 codes on. My brother made me swap them for CTS ones "I want to play the damn thing, not look at it".

Just this one point... I know from experience that that crud can build up in just five years, and be removed surprisingly effectively.

This Thursday and Basschaters from Caerdydd welcome!

Fingers crossed for Thursday... odd early evening gig but we've pushed the fact our frontman/guitarist was supporting Cardinal Black for a huge sellout gig on Saturday.

That's still pretty cheap, if you don't mind me saying 😀 Trick around here. £300 is pretty much the limit for most venues, you gave to accept that a pub or smaller club doesn't or can't get a huge audience.

I would love to persuade some guys to do either Supper's Ready, or the whole of Chronicle of the Black Sword.

Just search round. Both tabs are out there. The main riff is a doddle it's the chorus that's trickier.

No those are natural harmonics.

I cropped the page quite a lot. All the missing information is on the original. Most sight readers would struggle to interpret 'Portrait of Tracey' with all the notes played as harmonics. To me the shortcomings of tab are lack of key information and not making chord inversions obvious. As I am incapable of retaining anysight reading skills for more than a day or so, I will make the best of tab. Sadly most tab is inaccurate (but then so are many of the traditional scores for bass I have painstakingly worked out a note at a time).

I've seen stomps randomly stop and need a reset several times.
