(Listen to the) Flower People - Spinal Tap

Ooh you evil man. Brilliant

I was looking for a band name quite a while back, and a quick google search revealed two others with that name. One was a UK band that had folded in 2012, the other was an active US band that are very much local to their area and do not appear to ever have left their home state, never mind toured. To be on the safe side and to avoid confusion, we modified it slightly so where their name is 'Name Of Band', ours was 'nameofband'.

Yes, that's great news for us Saturday folks. I've got a bit of a drive but am hoping to get there good & early. And this is great news too. I have been itching to get my hands on one of your instruments for years. Security! Eject this man from the forum!

Current gig rig (the amp is new and yet to be gigged). Line 6 G55 wireless, Trace Elliot TE-1200 amp, Barefaced Super 12T cab.

Song To The Siren - This Mortal Coil

Hands Off, She's Mynah - The Beat

And because it weighs 1,970lbs.

Done My 10p - I have no experience of Wilkinson humbuckers but I did have one of their split Ps and it was excellent. Good tone and a very hot output. If you were to go down the Wilks route, I would recommend sourcing it from a more reputable source. I don't trust AliExpress at all.

Suburbia -Pet Shop Boys

Hey Look, It's Me - Kraken

Possibly an unpopular opinion here, but Power Windows is my favourite Rush album. The trio of Manhattan Project / Marathon / Territories is still my favourite three song run from any album ever.

Hey Fatty Bum Bum - Carl Malcolm

Minnie the Pooch-er - Cab Calloway

IIRC, Hartke is 'Horrid American Rubbish That Keeps Exploding'..? Not entirely accurate, I really liked my old HA3500 and it definitely never exploded. Likewise. I paid £330 for my beloved Pro 2E in 1986, at Hamer's in Reading.

The Sun Goes Down (Livin' It Up) - Level 42

Shirley, you can't be serious

+1 for the Artecs. My Thunder 1A has an SE2 in it at the moment, and I fitted a full fat SE3PA to my old fretless Yamaha, the three band with the sweepable mid, and it was great. For my money a 3 band with sweepy mid is the perfect preamp for fretless.

I fitted one of those under the pickguard in my fretless OLP, when I fitted the active eq. It's a very secure battery holder.

Email notifications are still incredibly sporadic at the moment. One minute they're working, next they aren't. It's not just me either, I've had a couple of reports from other members.

'Nuff politics thank you, folks.

I shall make do with my faithful old Basschat long-sleeve T, and my Thatcher's Cider lanyard with the built-in bottle opener. Flying the flag for BC and for the Wess Vinglund.

My DHL delivery driver did precisely that with 800 quids worth of Trace Elliot amp. 'Unimpressed' is a gross understatement.

Caroline by Status Quo. Not much of a challenge, I know but I also had to sing it.
