Looks terrible. I really doubt that Lydon et al would have spoken like that. Artistic license to the max.

I rather like that. I see what you mean about Curve.

Way back when I first started playing bass, I was in a band with some friends. We only ever played a couple of local gigs, but one of them was a memorial concert for a young guy who had been killed in a car crash. He had been the singer with another band that we were friendly with and I always remember that Plush was one of the songs that they covered.

I came here to post this. I remember buying the 12" Stiltskin single and playing the vocal version. What a massive let down that was.

They do a mix of stuff. It was Fleetwood Mac a few days ago.

For the Wordle fans among you, check out Heardle.

Visit a medium and pay them to tell that to Kurt Cobain.

I remember when I was quite young, my next door neighbour and I discovered his mum's collection of Beatles records. We would sing Love Me Do, but argue about the tune. It wasn't until many years later that I realised we were singing the different harmonies.

I knew I recognised him from somewhere. I just couldn't put my finger on it.

If you watch the first 5 minutes or so, skip to the car crash, then skip to the Steve Clarke alcohol bit, that's quite a good wee film. Rick Allen in the hospital bed looks a bit like Regan from "The Exorcist"😆

😆 He was based on Daniel.

Many years ago I worked in a bookmaker's and the female manager would have made Lemmy sound like a soprano 😆

It's also about 3 times the OP's budget

I'm sure someone else will be able to give better advice than me, but I have the Rumble 25 for bedroom playing and it is more than powerful enough. The LT25 has more features than the 25, so is more expensive. It depends on whether or not he would need all those features.

I think he san "Something Better Change", didn't he? Take it Hugh!

That looks fantastic

Has anyone else noticed how many of these stories start "I was in a band with an alcoholic drummer..."?

Has anyone mentioned the Spermbirds yet "Come All Over Your Face"

🤮

It actually reminds me of the Damned a little too. Obviously not New Rose, or Eloise, but more recent stuff.

There was a Manic Street Preachers concert on TV the other night and every time James played a solo the whole sound just seemed empty. Nicky's bass seemed to be turned way down for some reason. Even when James was playing the melody there just seemed to be something missing.

My '91 Squier Silver Series Jazz has one. I've no idea if it's functional or decorative, though and don't intend taking the bass apart to find out as I'll never get it set up properly again.

I've been looking for a new camera bag and found one I liked on Kent Faith, for £66. The same bag on Amazon is £93. I went with neither as I need it for next Friday and K&F are quite slow to deliver as the stuff comes from China, I believe. I ended up buying a cheap one on Amazon for £34, although it will probably fall apart quickly.

Mike Percy... Dead, Dead, Alive.

You have had a lucky escape in my opinion - I always hated playing Zombie. 😆
