[quote name='pst62' timestamp='1348397785' post='1813059'][media]http://youtu.be/ocHb8owIwds[/media][/quote] Nice one - I remember the Partisans from years ago. Bought one of their singles in 1983 and loved 'em ever since.

I like it - wouldn't spend the stupid amount of cash to buy it but I think it looks OK.

[quote name='WHUFC BASS' timestamp='1346841192' post='1793827'] Judging from their mission statement on there, I think you've dodged a bullet mate. They sound like a right bunch of tossers, like a lot of record labels. Hence the reason we put out all our own stuff.

This fella rips that bassline up with his thumbs ... I think he used to be a member on here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOo54oWpuGk

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1345744149' post='1781196']I've used [url="http://www.discwizards.com/"]Disk Wizards[/url] for an number of projects over the last couple of years.[/quote] That's who we use. Never had any complaints and they do special offers if you like them on arsebook. The also do digipaks which look a lot better than just a carboard sleeve. Cheaper than 950 sheets too.

Listen to the band Agnostic Front. Roger Miret seems to get away with singing out of tune most of the time - if he can do it, I'm sure anyone can do it.

Cleaned my teeth, put on my best clobber, Tonight's the night I'm going to knob her Vauxhall Viva's covered in rust, But you can't shag a bird on a 29 bus ... Beer and Sex and Chips and Gravy Macc Lads Extra kudos for using a kazoo in the song

I oughta have my f***ing head examined for screwing with a skank like you. But it wasnt like I really fell for you, I was just cold and empty through and through... (Blood For Blood, So Common, So Cheap) All you numbers in the cell block: All you sweating in the detox: To all you hoods that are dodging cops And to all you bleeding from a broken heart You know youve got a brother here. ... (Blood For Blood, Hanging on the Corner Blood)

I always class Motorhead's first album "On Parole" as pub rock. Some great tracks on there too ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kegItmzd--o

I saw the title of this thread and thought - this is going to be the usual pony shred / fretboard ego trip but after giving it a listen, its actually very very good. Well done to you sir. Great playing and a great song too.

[quote name='KiOgon' timestamp='1344366600' post='1763551']Was Dudley Moore on piano? 'Cos in this shot the bassist looks to me like Peter Cook [/quote] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZEEgIti8sM

Can anyone recommend a good recording studio in the North London / East London / Essex region for recording metal ? Budget is up to £200 a day. We're previously recorded at Perry Vale studios in South London which were superb, but expensive and difficult to get to for the band, so we're looking for somewhere a bit closer to home. Any suggestions ?

[quote name='silddx' timestamp='1344126852' post='1760267']My POD X3 LIVE is now sporting a deep scar from a 4" stiletto heel too.[/quote] That'll teach you to play bass wearing them. You've been warned about your dress sense before. I suggest you take it on board !

Never get tired listening to this album ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLDyhcAKZ60

[quote name='bartelby' timestamp='1344106315' post='1759952'] I love Maiden, excluding the non-Bruce years and The Final Frontier. [/quote] I'm the opposite, I thought DiAnno was the man !

[quote name='essexbasscat' timestamp='1343982383' post='1758050'] Has anyone noticed market trends with regards to equipement ? seems that some gear rides an incoming wave of popularity, then slowly begins to sour on the player's pallet, leading to loads of said gear coming up for sale as the tide goes out. [/quote] All the 80s hair metal guitars such as the Ibanez RG series and Charvels spring to mind. Same goes for Warwicks. Back in the 90s almost every bassist on the box was using one. Now it seems to be Precisions are in vogue.

[quote name='charic' timestamp='1343826226' post='1755831'] ^ As above really! All purpose condenser on a budget? Look no further than the Rode - NT1A (I need one) - Just don't put it too close to a bass amp! [/quote] I've got an NT2 and its a great mic for vocals. Not tried it for anything else but sounds great to my ears.

I gave up for 10 years and came back much more focussed, enthusiastic and mature. Giving up temporarily ain't a bad thing - giving up permanently is I reckon.
