    It will be packed with bass chatters come to see this monstrous cab

  2. Im going to the O2 as well
    I know his band is terrific and Im sure it will be a great show. He is a great bass player whose written great parts and songs. really looking forward to it.

    Im seeing the who in Hyde parkin june, havent seen them since the 60s and looking forward very much.

    In my twilight years I would rather go and actually see someone and risk being disapointed than not go and regret it afterwards

  3. I have the one that plugs directly into the bass and its pretty bombproof. I recently bought a new powersupply and its my fault so no complaints there. Cables need to be heavy duty to withstand the screaming girls and the abuse after a few pints. Companies let themself down if they dont make stuff robust.

    Fantastic version although I am rather partial to the Alan Price version.

  5. I have had mine for about 18 months and it has performed faultlessly'

    you can get a new power supply for £8

    Do you have the little bug that plugs into the bass or one where the transmitter is on the strap. If the latter, get obbm to make you a new lead.I know you shouldnt have to but spend £20 and that should resolve your problems.
    FWIW I sold my line 6 because the lead was flimsy.

    I
    "Oh my God" shrieked at high volume by most females under 25 or worse, actually shouting "OMG"

    There are certain circumstances where I might find that more than acceptable.

    [size=4][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]You know what it reminds me of? When Lennon said the 'Beatles were bigger than Jesus.' And the hecklers and record burners worked themselves into a frenzy to ban the Beatles. Just change the comment about Jesus to a comment about Rickenbackers. [/font][/size]

    Now I think you are getting ideas above your station

    Top tip, stand your aerosols in a container of hot tap water for about 15 mins before shaking the can. Helps the paint to fully atomise, especially at this time of year ;)

    Please be carefull if you do this.

    I spent some 30 years involved with the filling of Aerosols which when made were tested to ensure that at 50 degrees C they did not leak or burst. However if heated above 50 C degrees it is likely that the contents of an aerosol will expand to such a degree that they will exert a hydraulic pressure within the can which will first reverse the dome in the base of the can and then split the seam or blow the valve out.

    One I left in a lab water bath and forgot blew a hole in a corrugated roof, and it made a mess that took ages to clear up, that was hair spray so it would be real mess if it was paint.

    Wear eye protection and be carefull

  9. One of my good friends died of this several years ago. To see him go from an active man through to when he was in a wheelchair and could only move his head was awfull, The strain it puts on his family is enourmous, had to be fed like a chilld. Its a disgusting disease.
