[quote name='White Cloud' timestamp='1375466266' post='2161925'] Yes I did see the posts. Honestly, I am glad that you enjoy the updated material.... it's just not for me. I remember when Rush used to sing about integrity. This is a release to raise yet more capital. [/quote] I don't follow..? The fans have been crying out for a remix since it was released. Yeah, they should give it away free to everyone who bought it originally, but after ten years that was never going to happen. I'm not a fanboi either. I didn't go to the CA tour because the tickets were too expensive and I think they've lost the plot a little bit.

[quote name='White Cloud' timestamp='1375465730' post='2161918'] Will it? I'm perfectly happy with the original version....if you choose to buy it then good luck with that. I am sure Geddy et al will be touched by your loyalty. [/quote] Yes, it will (IMO, of course). See my earlier posts about the previously-released remixes..

[quote name='White Cloud' timestamp='1375463996' post='2161882'] And for that reason I will make do with the original cut [/quote] You do that. I'll get the new one because it'll be better.

For anyone who hasn't heard it, here's the previously-available OLV remix. Obviously YouTube knacks it a bit, but it'll give you an idea. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EW4jiJWyqQ0[/media]

[quote name='tonybassplayer' timestamp='1375461226' post='2161806'] Perhaps we could crack out a flip chart and brainstorm it first then put the ideas together into a PowerPoint presentation ?? Apologies to the OP as its probably a pretty good idea but I just got so fed up with the whole corporate thing a few years ago. [/quote] This.

[quote name='White Cloud' timestamp='1375461564' post='2161820'] Without wishing to be cynical this could be more of a commercial venture than an artistic one. [/quote] Of course it's commercial. Why would they do it otherwise?

Should be good - the remixed tracks that are available already are far better.

[quote]I hate people who say "I like rock/funky/polka/tango/blues...blah blah blah *snip* I like 80s New wave, 90s synth pop, nu/italo-disco, electro pop, everything with a good mix of acoustic and electronic. [/quote] LULz

[quote name='tb1973' timestamp='1375438043' post='2161220'] I kind of think it was intentional as a bit of a 'F... you Waters - look at us - we've got a proper bass player now', but it upset the balance and backfired I guess. [/quote] I dunno. As a live act, I think Floyd did OK since Roger left.

I'm back with 12" cabs, too. No tweeters, either - my tweeter days are over. It was actually Bjelkeman's post on this thread that made me aware of [url="http://www.tks.se"]TKS Engineering[/url]. They're absolutely lovely. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/212014-tks-112-cabs-new-to-the-uk-review"]Here's the full story.[/url]

I seem to recall reading somewhere that he acknowledges this himself . When it was time for the Division Bell tour, Mr. Gilmour politely suggested to Mr. Pratt how he might play some things differently, or use different basses, to what he did / used on the DSOT tour. The 'Money' line springs to mind... straighter, and on a P.

[quote name='nottswarwick' timestamp='1375352159' post='2160070'] I'm liking the tone. How much of that is due to the Walkabout head? Sounds lovely. Might have to see if I can find one. [/quote] It's hard to tell. There's no doubt the Walkabout has magic in it, but these cabs just seems to fit it like a glove. There's loads of treble on-tap, too - I had the tone rolled back on these clips. By the way, if any NE-based bashers want to a go, just let me know.

[quote name='Highfox' timestamp='1375336038' post='2159842'] Wonder how you recorded the sound, did you mic the cab up or was it just ambient sound to the camera? [/quote] It's recorded on a Zoom H2 a couple of feet from the cab. The drum track is being played on my Promethean combo off to the side. (I know nowt about mic placement, etc. Can you tell?)

They should have taken the neck off instead. Clowns.

[quote name='4 Strings' timestamp='1375278659' post='2159174'] Should we start a 'Here's my Midget in a silly situation' series? Here's a start, a little charity do at a school, but outdoors, just vocals through the pa. Not a metal-loud gig but pretty punchy. Midget handled it just ticking over, plenty of capacity left. I would not expect a 1x12 to be able to sound like this. Recorded by audience member on an iphone. There will be more, let's see some more examples of Midgets in places where you'd expect something bigger. (Try with headphones or linked to some proper speakers, laptop speakers won't reproduce the bass) [media]http://youtu.be/tLqkveQuVVU[/media] [/quote] Sounds great. Cool band, too. Nice one.

Is it[url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/213387-ashdown-uk-made-head-evo500-and-cab-1x15-2x10-and-tweeter/page__p__2157724#entry2157724"] this one[/url]?

[quote name='tonyf' timestamp='1375260249' post='2158850'] I sympathize with the whole "can't get up thing". [/quote]

All I can think of now is this: http://youtu.be/ikHQT6mluhk?t=9s Good luck :-)

[quote name='Fubar' timestamp='1373984764' post='2143843'] For all you country music lovers out there.... [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RxrROjpd5S8[/media] [/quote] He rhymed 'Rio Grande' with 'Sure is handy'. That's beyond awesome. Love the steel on this.

[quote name='Les' timestamp='1375135352' post='2157233'] Followed this thread from the beginning, what an amazing thing to have done . But I have to ask, did you drop any bollox at all ? [/quote] Nope - somehow I got away with it! Even when I was reading from my cobbled-together cheat sheet (see earlier post) it was one of those gigs where the planets aligned. The four solid days of rehearsal paid off, I think. The incredible on-stage sound helped, too. [quote name='BassBus' timestamp='1375169319' post='2157380'] That Joe McElderry laddy can't half belt out a tune. Great voice. [/quote] Can't he? I've done a couple of things with him now, and he's been fantastic every time. He deserves to do well.

[quote name='Japhet' timestamp='1375185167' post='2157719'] Abba - Dancing Queen.......................seriously.....listen to it. [/quote] Dancing Queen? Lame? It's a great song! Most of ABBA's lines are awesome. Rutger's a genius.

[quote name='obbm' timestamp='1375176223' post='2157497'] Excellent. Thanks for the plug [/quote] I see what you did there

Not buying new would give you the best head start. There are no guarantees, though...

Nice one!
