  1. At that price, I think it'll be for sale for quite a while..!
  2. NSD (New Stuff Day) -- brilliant new Hercules stand, courtesy of my wonderful daughter. :)

      Excellent,   I have a few of their little foldy  ones.

  3. No no no no no no no no no. NO.
  4. Stop it. Stop it RIGHT now. You lot are doing my GAS no good at all. There's only so long I can keep telling myself that I really don't need a light relic 65 Jazz in CAR with matching headstock.

    They did the conveyancing on my last house purchase.
  6. Do you count any nationally/globally well-known musos amongst your farcebook friends? Dave Swift, for example. He/they might be able to help?
  7. Only 7. What a sheltered life I have led. I recall Kingfisher Music in Fleet having a similar list. They had a sliding scale of fines with all the money going to (IIRC) a local hospice.
  8. And, being Poole, each other I expect...
  9. 01 Ever played a gig sitting down? Yes, after a knee operation some years back. 02 Ever gigged on a different instrument? I did a few gigs doing just BVs and percussion after a carpal tunnel op. It was quite nice being able to concentrate on the singing. 03 Ever shared a stage with a musical hero of yours? No, alas. 04 Any fan ever had a tatoo of your band's logo? Nope. Seen people wearing the t shirt though. 05 Ever signed an autograph in a dressing room? Who would want it? 06 Ever cried on stage? No. Came close though, on the night my dad died. 07 Ever worn a hat on stage? Yes, every gig. 08 Ever gigged with a band you hadn't met before the gig? No, and I wouldn't like to. I hate being underprepared. 09 Ever been in a relationship with a fellow band member? No and I wouldn't want to. Absolute minefield. 10 Ever played in different bands on the same day? Yes, and on the same bill too. 11 Ever had anything thrown at you while playing? Spears, grenades, angry honey badgers. No knickers yet though. 12 Ever crashed on the way to the gig? No. Wrote my car off en route to a rehearsal once though. 13 Ever left a band over the choice of set list? No. 14 Ever slept in the venue despite it not being a hotel? No. 15 Ever been supported by a band clearly better than you? Thankfully, no. 16 Ever played a gig suffering from some debilitating medical condition? Yes, see 1 and 2 above. 17 Ever been in a band where the guitarist was your favourite bandmate? Yes, twice. A blues rock trio in Swindon, and also a fusion trio with @Witters. 18 Ever played in the grounds of a stately home? Don't think so. 19 Ever injured yourself on stage? Like many others, only my pride. 20 Ever been told that your bass isn't loud enough? Yes. What a glorious day that was.
  10. Another gig bites the dust, and this one hurts... the One Love Festival in Kent, in August. Absolutely gutted. I was really looking forward to this one.

      I feel your pain Rich, we've lost three festivals too. A brand new band for me as well.

      I would say it gives me longer to learn the set but in reality, all it does is delay the inevitable last minute cramming and busking to a bit later in the year. 

  11. Now that's a good idea. Hmm indeed. Look, for god's sake, will somebody please buy this and put me out of my misery? I really want it and can neither justify nor afford it.
  12. I think it's @Reggaebass?
  13. In all seriousness, this does look like a really absurd bargain but my old Pandora already does all that for me, so I'll leave it for someone else.
  14. Another lockdown tweak done... added a HF tweeter and crossover to my wee Behringer 60w 1x12 rehearsal combo. Mud, begone! :D 

  15. Wow I can't see it hanging around for long at that price. What a bargain.

    Well, the mammoth clone works now to build the second part of the project and combine them.
  17. I did, couple of years ago at the Fleece in Brizzle.
  18. Ok, sticking my neck out a bit... you were only 17 when he died, so... Bob Marley?
