Completely off topic but that's on my birthday! Woot! And in response no I'm not going... sorry

£488?! Good thing I shifted mine when I did...

My Dawsons closed down. Says it all really.

Heard the orange through an 810E when I saw Alkaline Trio at the Koko a couple weeks back. It sounded immense. You cannot go wrong with it

Best of luck mate, and it's always better forming a band with people you like/know

Since there are a couple of threads relating to crappy bass shops, I thought it might be worth making a thread filled with good, basschat approved shops , maybe with a rating system out of 10 for service, staff knowledge, stock etc...thoughts? Anyhoo, thought I'd start it off with Oxford's PMT - very friendly and helpful staff and if they don't know something or have it in stock they'll look it up or find a way they can get it in for you Me likey EDIT - Seems this has been done much better in this thread [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=2680"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=2680[/url] . Who knew eh

[quote name='The Funk' post='264481' date='Aug 18 2008, 12:43 PM']That was Simone who left a while ago. She was great.[/quote] Defintely, she sold me my rapture and tracked down a load of Pedulla accessories for me However yes, last time I went in there the attitude was rather poor.

I have three light up ducks a la reservoir dogs (nicknamed the reservoir ducks ) on top of my stack at gigs...they have different colour beaks and all! Also went through a phase of the whole band wearing matching purple velvet smoking jackets...

Maybe try some Korn or bleeding through? As S5S said, anything metally really.

Hmm...only very rarely. Then again I predominantly play only in one trick bands...

Hmm, don't know where you're based, but a second hand headless hohner has come into a store near me (in Oxford). Nice thing is about it is though it's got a proper body instead of one of those weird angular square things...either way. PM me if you want, I can point you in the right direction

Dang...beaten to it, was gonna take a shot at talkbass with a similar joke Lame *exits sadly with coat*

My personal worst is the one with the kids sounding like they're singing "feeeeeeeell the aiiiiiiiiir" grrrrr

eeesh sorry for size

One I took which I quite like... Brent Riggs of Job For A Cowboy

Well said to everyone here tbh I think the original poster was out of line and if he spent more time here he'd realise how amazing and unique this place is.

hmm...intriguing...will be watching with interest...

[quote name='lowdown' post='263122' date='Aug 15 2008, 02:45 PM']Where does that leave Stevie Wonder..? [/quote] ZING! [quote name='coasterbass' post='263124' date='Aug 15 2008, 02:46 PM']Does anyone else actually have room to move about on stage?[/quote] Definitely a fair point, I'm always bumping into fellow bandmates Also, something I've found that if you push the showmanship too much and force things you get sloppy and just come across...wrong...I can't place it, but if you just get into it and let loose...i dunno, just don't force the showmanship, it can look insincere... IMO of course

[quote name='Sibob' post='259201' date='Aug 10 2008, 11:58 AM']But yeah, if the guy was any kind of decent guy, he'd honor the gig and leave after that...basic etiquette![/quote] +1 Better he leaves now than when you are regularly gigging...try things as a single guitar, could work wonders , however looking at your myspace you say you love the whole two guitar thing so maybe try local ads etc for a replacement? In the end the guy doesn't have to be a long term member, you just need someone to fill.
