  1. Is that a Wishbass, or a bass he bought from Wish? What is he doing to that poor instrument?
  2. They did quite well at the time. They were NME darlings.
  3. Axe basses! I haven't heard of them in years. I can remember one or two people buying the guitars.
  4. I don't know much about the professional music world, so can I ask how they can afford someone like Steve Albini to produce them? Do they have a record deal (how?) or has mummy or daddy financed them?
  5. Ironically, the bass playing is probably the best thing in that video.
  6. I'm not even sure if there is an equivalent to Tiswas, Swap Shop or Saturday Superstore these days. My daughter never watched anything like that growing up. On TV it would have been things like IN the Night Garden or Peppa Pig, then as she got a bit older, stuff on You Tube.
  7. Loved that. Who would have suspected Mees Leymon to have played that?
  8. Welcome!
  9. I should have put /s at the end, shouldn't I?
  10. we've all seen the TV programmes. You can just go rogue, then say "but guv..." and it will be fine. 😁
  11. There's hope for me yet...
  12. That's the man.
  13. I think Ben Miller (Armstrong & Miller) is on drums and Mark Williams (The Fast Show) is on keys. I recognise the guitarist too, but can't remember his name. Not sure who the bloke in the audience that the camera keeps going to is, though 😄
  14. I love the Mo Tucker drumming
  15. Lou Reed never had a good voice, but it was perfect for what he did with the Velvet Underground.
  16. https://www.thomann.de/gb/steinberger_guitars_spirit_xt2_standard_bass_bk.htm
  17. Crap! I can't offer any advice as to a light bass, but I do wish you a speedy recovery.
  18. Are they knitted from tone wool? Are they good for metal?
  19. Welcome Jack.
  20. "it has four strings and people think you are weird for playing it..." 😆
  21. I played it for a while in primary school, but didn't practise enough and gave it up, to my eternal regret. I think I struggled to reach the extended notes.
  22. 😬 It might have been legal wherever it was that they got married, but c'mon Jerry Lee... that's just not right.
  23. I'll give that a miss and go and Listen to Adam and the Ants instead.
