  1. [quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1425339921' post='2706440'] Someone had to do it, 1000 replies. What a [s]Millstone [/s]Milestone. [/quote] Well done, here's one Ozzy Osborne would make a better job of the economy than the other guy, oh hang on, that's not alternative, that's true (and heavy, man).
  2. [quote name='bassace' timestamp='1423056980' post='2680077'] Would like to see KC but not with this yawn-fest. Sorry. [/quote] I would rather have had 1 Bill Bruford than 3 other geezers but that aside it looks good to me.
  3. My local shop is Kenny's music in Dundee, they stock chromes, £30 a set.
  4. [quote name='leschirons' timestamp='1419020570' post='2635853'] Caravan of love was written by the Gypsy kings after a gig in Wickford. [/quote] And here's me thinking it was Randy Vanwarmer, ah well, it was just when I needed you most.
  5. Meatloaf is a creature created by Dr Frankensteinman out of a load of old cuts and offal (and bread).
  6. Joni Mitchell's husband Andrew has just lost loads of dosh.
  7. The Police have also never met Sue Lawley.
  8. Stewart Copeland's father Miles was a CIA agent who arrested the Police in a Sting operation in the 70's, it was in one of the Summers
  9. Van der Graff generator's career remained static for years.
  10. [quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1410195626' post='2547017'] + 1 to above but I'm a fan of zero zero seven if that's any help....? [/quote] Is that the one that keeps coming up as the thunderball --------------------- coat ----------------- exit.
  11. I have a Bronco and love it, the weak tuners and the two saddle bridge would be on my list as well.
  12. [quote name='blamelouis' timestamp='1407746624' post='2523455'] Recently read Midge Ures autobiography and he says the only star he ever met who was an absolute asshole was Rodney. Said that Clapton and Elton John were there and they apologised for him. [/quote] EC and EJ apologising for someone else being an @rse, thats rich.
  13. The clip on youtube is taken from "Live at the quick", which is available on Dvd or Cd, superb playing and a fine recording, Flight of the cosmic hippo is one of my fave test disks for evaluating hifi systems, the title track has some monstrous subterranean bass with the counterpoint of the staccato banjo sound.
  14. [quote name='pqs' timestamp='1406058875' post='2507978'] Have ordered the white one which is due for delivery Saturday. Will be good to see how it compares to my Squire Jag short scale [/quote] I would value your opinion as well, esp with having a Squier jag to compare it to.
  15. The establishment in concert.
  16. I saw him with the original Flecktones a couple or so years ago, an amazing player, have fun.
  17. DV247 are very good to deal with as well, I inadvertently ordered a bass which was out of stock and was refunded the same day, bass was despatched when in stock with no probs and very well packed.
  18. If I were to be considering buying headphones (esp. if spending large wads of dosh), I would want to hear them for myself and not put my faith in someone else who is listening to them while you watch.
  19. Try this one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ip5e9NUvX6A
  20. [quote name='flyfisher' timestamp='1396863074' post='2417970'] So you'd prefer to pay more for your goods as well as your parking and carry your accumulating shopping as you walk from shop to shop? People are not forced to use supermarkets are they? So why do they? [/quote] Convenience and price as we have discussed, all I'm saying is they don't need to be in the vicinity of each other, that way the small biz has a chance and people who are so inclined can stroll round the shops in town.
  21. [quote name='flyfisher' timestamp='1396817516' post='2417715'] Sorry, but it's not "shopping malls that steal trade from local town centres forcing small businesses out of business" it's the people who stop using local town centres in favour of the shopping malls. So the real question is why do people prefer to shop elsewhere when given a choice? [/quote] I would disagree, if you put a supermarket beside a town centre it will suck the life blood from it, the smaller shops cannot compete price wise because of the bulk buying power of the giant which comes with free car parking which also puts them at an advantage. Not to mention the myriad of different products on sale designed to kill all businesses locally stone dead, they also have the gall to open local branches at higher prices once they have killed the competition off.
  22. I really like the new album, lovely harmonies and the sound quality is superb.
  23. Zappa's Apostrophe and Overnite sensation well worth checking out, as said previously the detail they go into is tremendous.
