    In the 60s, and a few recent tours IIRC.

    Just ordered mine from Amazon to leave in the car should the worst ever happen. Ta for the heads-up 🙂

    Are you sure they’re guitar faces? It looks like he’s approaching Billy Mill roundabout* on most of these..? *ref. VIZ profanisaurus

    I'm not bothered as long as it's not an awful syrupy bleat, or a 'Look how cool and clever we are!' jazz-funk arrangement. Can't bear that stuff. I'm royally sick of it.

    I’m sure they could have done it with Neil and their usual auxiliary guy.

    My ‘flatty’ Is flame all the way through.
  7. wateroftyne
    FWIW, flame headstocks are flat.

    I think all the vocals could do with a ramp up. They're buried in drums.

    ...have just made their debut on US telly. I was hoping it would be great, but I'm not so sure it's going to work. I don't think the terrible mix helps, mind.

    It's an absolute beast, isn't it? (Sonically, that is!) There really needs to be more of these amps out there.
  11. wateroftyne
    And, of course, the other problem with overplaying is what when you get to part of the song that could really do with a bit more going on... where do you go?
  12. wateroftyne
    Yup. The difference is knowing when not to be busy.

    A sad occasion this weekend, as the trial WB-100 was collected by its first proper owner (another BC'er, I'm happy to say). Funds are tight for me at the mo, otherwise I would have bought it seconds after gigging it for the first time. I hope to correct that soon, though - until then, back to the also-marvellous R-400.

    Oh no. That's totally ruined my enjoyment of Def Leppard and Kiss.

    The truly remarkable thing about the vid is that the bandleader's glasses match his hair. That's SO COOL.
  16. wateroftyne
    I've been quite openly saying people have different approaches to mine. It's you that seems to struggle to comprehend that others can do it their own way.

    ...in your experience. I've (been lucky to have) played with people who just play, and don't need to get embroiled in the theory, or dot reading. Some of them undoubtedly do that with other projects, some don't. And they all do fine.
  18. wateroftyne
    You need to read all of my post...
  19. wateroftyne
    You learn it as the songwriter intends, which can be done either by following the dots, or just having a good ear.
  20. wateroftyne
    I probably am, and thank you. 'Right place, right time' can never be underestimated 😄
  21. wateroftyne
    The band learn it as the songwriter intends. And if it sounds cack, they persuade him/her to standardise it into something that feels right.
  22. wateroftyne
    Ha.. I'm fine until I get to a song with stops or stabs. Then it all falls apart (apparently) 😄
  23. wateroftyne
    Err... OK. I stand by my previous comment 🙂
  24. wateroftyne
    What do you consider a 'theoretical framework'?
  25. wateroftyne
    I doubt that's directly related to a lack of theoretical understanding.
