  1. We were playing the old Wardour Street Marquee back in the 80s..we'd got a few bars into the first track of the set and a full glass of lager comes flying out of the crowd and smashes on the keyboard which promptly packed up. We struggled on through the whole set without the keys, hating much of it to be honest .... but we were told afterwards that it was the best gig we'd played for ages!
  2. Not for commercial use So pretty pointless really
  3. I can't remember....
  4. Love my Sterling HH - after 35 odd years of P-basses and variations there of and after struggling with the dimensions of a Stingray I took the plunge and it is my forever bass.... The only other bass that is creeping onto my radar right now is a Sterling HS .....
  5. Did you skip it? This new album is proper polished compared to anything we've done before - even my sister was tapping her foot to it!!
  6. Mixes of our new album - at home, in the car, in the office, on my ipod walking about - as many environments and speakers as possible - trying to determine which things in which mixes work best and which mixes should be released.
  7. none my rig is light enough for a one man lift trip to the van - some of it has its own wheels and gets dragged
  8. Or the keyboard player has no amp and insists on filling his wedge with keyboard - when there's only 4 wedges and we're a 5 piece....guess who has to go without ? Vocals and guitar? Do they actually turn up to gigs?
  9. I followed exactly the procedure in the youtube video stevie posted I used Wurth capacitors from RS Now I have exactly the noise demonstrated by this video (the video is RP5 not RP6 but the noise is the same)
  10. I've never had a music lesson in my life. I don't know any 'rules'. Hasn't stopped me making 9 albums.
  11. Does that mean it plays best during the run up to christmas?
  12. I tried the repair myself. It's worse now than it was LOL I've ordered some new monitors. Hide my soldering iron - I'm obviously totally inept
  13. Should i have?
  14. ??? Isn't English the accepted language on this board?
  15. Often the best music comes from breaking the 'rules' - i suspect a knowledge of the rules might prevent one from being as creative as one might be if one didn't know the rules?
  16. Are you no longer a EBMM dealer? Not in the 'To Order' list
  17. Rubbish - I've made 3 Warmoth basses - all in the UK
  18. What is it with drummers? Our drummer is the only one of us without a facebook
  19. Things that annoy me?? We're putting an album together but can't agree on which mix to include of each song....some of them are up to v25 already - I'm sure v12 was better...... It's like a never ending story
  20. I do know of one huge EDM hit that was : Barber's Adagio for strings
  21. Or that when polishing the ports in the cylinder head you broke through from one port to the next and resorted to rebuilding the wall with araldite.....(this is based on a true story...ahem)
  22. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/offer-listing/B0002H0MAY/ref=dp_olp_0?ie=UTF8&condition=all Any good?
  23. i have a 6 string acoustic and a 6 string electric I can't play them I couldn't even if my life depended on it - I only have them to experiment with melodies which I play as though I was playing a bass - ie 1 note at a time I do get confused at intervals when we get to the B string (positions relative to the G string)
  24. When we're writing we initially have a 'map' of the song laid out on the floor on sheets of A3 paper for all to see Part A > part B > part A> PartC > Part A >PartB etc.... We play it a few times We then remember it tsimples
  25. My symptoms sound exactly like this: (RP5 in video - mine is RP6)
