  1. Im looking for a new cab and seeing lots of decent ones cheap but with really battered and torn tolex. It it a big or expensive job to replace the tolex on a 4x10?
  2. NOFX - Gonoherpasyphaloids
  3. My friends band is pretty rough but they're so convinced they're amazing I can't say anything. Lovely bunch of people and I'll go and see them occasionally but usually, not many people show up
  4. It'll be the same
  5. I don't see the point of introducing band members. As a punter, I don't care that Bill is on drums unless its Bill Ward. No one in the audience is paying attention to the introductions or is interested.
  6. I like my Two Notes Revolt for this. Its a three channel, valve driven preamp pedal plus its got an effects loop so you can set it up with your effects before or after the preamp and the three channels give clean, dirty or really dirty options.
  7. You might be right there. 4x10 isn't unreasonable. He contacted me again recently and asked me if I want to do something again. Nice enough bloke but a bit demanding.
  8. I used to have a TE head with TE 4x10 and 1x15. It sounded great but after the third time I blew up the head, I got rid of it. Maybe I should look for another oil tanker anchor / TE 4x10
  9. I guess you're referring to the type in gentleman's special interest films?
  10. Surely she's a bit too good to be supporting tribute acts.
  11. Thats every redneck woman in the deep south. To make it more simple, their second first name is nearly always Lynn (Amber-Lynn, Tammy-Lynn, Christi-Lynn etc, etc). I believe there was a whole bit about this in the film Ted
  12. I think it was only about four years ago.
  13. Im in need of a bit more volume. My amp is an Ashdown ABM600 which has a ton of power but my cab is only a 200 watt 2x10 and it just gets a bit swamped in a metal band. We could play quieter but don't really want to. My options are get a second 2x10 or buy a 4x10. Is there any advantage to a 4x10 over two 2x10 cabs?
  14. I was in a prog metal band for a relatively short time. We wrote and recorded enough for a 40 minute set and then had a meeting about getting ready for gigs. At this meeting, the front man brought lists for each band member with specific items of kit each of us had to have. This wasn't little things like leads etc, my list included Ampeg SVT Classic with 410 cab, the guitarists list included a HiWatt amp and a load of pedals. After a relatively short argument, we all quit. The front man contacted me again recently claiming he's a bit more chilled out now, I told him to get stuffed.
  15. @terryj im afraid I've never got on with Stingray type basses so Ill give it a miss but thanks for asking.
  16. I used to work with an aussie who just called everyone by the C word. "Hey, do you c**ts want to come to the pub. Im meeting a bunch of c**it's to watch some c**t sing some old s**t" Translation- "Would you gentlemen care to join me at the hostelry to spend time with my family and I as we enjoy a fine singer performing the classics?"
  17. Butane Skies Shutterspeed Crooked Snout Wisdom Teeth Frances (session bassist for solo singer) Butane Skies is the only one with material released. They're doing really well playing festivals and moving up the stages. Shutterspeed are getting really good support slots and Crooked Snout are headlining the second stage at a punk day festival.
  18. Looks like they're doing well. I know The Lanes in Brizzle is a decent venue. My daughter is off on tour next spring but I've no idea where or even with which band! I think its her shoegaze band at uni but could be the grunge band.
  19. Also slang for the lady garden. Not a word I'd choose to use myself.
  20. Thats proper good. Definite 90's although rock feel to it. Are they gigging? What part of the country?
  21. Im not sure but it had a lot of miles on the clock and too many previous keepers
  22. Mudhoney just went for it anyway and its a classic.
  23. That's very nice. If my P bass sells before this Ill be interested
  24. As a biker, the same goes for motorbikes. They are machines, they may have some character but they do not need a name. I used to be in a Jaguar car owners group. One lady referred to her Jag as her growler. I suggested she might want to look up what growler can also mean. She never called it that again.
  25. Not at the moment. Ive recently joined a alt rock band in Langport. We're writing and recording at the moment. Gigs later in the year hopefully. I was in a doom metal band in Devon before. My oldest daughter plays bass for Butane Skies, they're playing in Frome (and everywhere else) pretty regularly.
