Stub Mandrel

Good job he isn't Phil Campbell's bass-playing youngest son who has to put up with a ritual chant at every gig...

He likes it! I haven't really had much of a go with it, I struggle to get anything out of a lefty.

There's a rumour that @Teebs is the spitting image of Buckethead. In fact, he's never been seen in his box-shaped disguise at the same time as Buckethead in his KFC bucket, so they could be the same person...

When a Thunder 1 came up on here, I grabbed it. Back in the 80s it was the bass you got if you couldn't afford a precision and the rumour was they were better made (it may well have been true). The one I got came up really nice, sounds fantastic ... and weighs a ton. My brother had a 1A back in the day and now has a lefty Spectrum DX. But who can say teh Thunder 1 isn't pretty?

I nearly got hung, drawn and quartered for criticising Stand By Me. Plus on eth original teh bass is mixed so low it's barely audible, it's only covers that have it dump-te-dumpting.

Not the famed concrete cows? 🙂

You callous %Y£^£%*! 🤣

I once approved a chap I worked with having four weeks unpaid leave - so he could tour as drummer with the support for Adam and the Ants.

You've nailed the right Richard 🙂

That'[s great news. I hope that posting here helped.

Dog shifted. This one clearly needs a bit more work, but might be a good way to scare the pants of our drummer next time we practice:

Some delay here - got half way through recording and the dog cam in and laid down on my phone...

You Can't Hurry Love?

I've got a fun one lined up, but I won't record it until tomorrow as some folks have gone to bed around here...

Who said there was no dark side of the tune? I'd put money on that 🙂

My brother looks like Tony Iommi to the point of being asked for autographs.

Blimey, it seems I only follow two or three threads - but I didn't think I followed any...

I can't find the thread in that list, and I think I've got notifcations switched off. I'm trying ignoring posts by the 'memesters'

The 'bad jokes thread' has just become tired and boring with two members just reposting endless memes. There's other places to go if I want that sort of entertainment, but I don't want to be rude to them or spoil their fun (it's clearly their main interest). Is there a way for me to stop it popping up in my 'content i've posted in' list as it's juts dogging me and I regret it every time I click on it.

I had a pee next to Noel Redding.

It's too hot to try playing things at the moment - the amp is just another heat source in a small hot office...

The worst case solution, proved many times in the 70s and 80s - pinhole, tehn a pin bent 90 degrees to pull it out. Then a drop of nail varnish to seal the hole.

Once I was walking down Aberystwyth with my then partner and a mate (say 1984). They suddenly crack up. Did you see who that guy who walked past us was they ask me? What the medallion man with blonde hair? I asked. That was Robert Plant... My daughter has lots of friends through being home educated. One is Freya Ridings, who had a number 5 hit recently and was at Glasto.

Was he one of them in the field mentioned in another thread? The llama field is already a Basschat Legend.
