Mark King. I hadn't been playing all that long when I saw Level 42 on the telly playing 'Foundation and Empire'. I was stunned by what I was seeing and hearing.

Gesundheit.

Do What John? - Monty Python

New mute switch painted, decorated and hardware fitted. Now to stuff the boards in and wire it. This is the first time I've used a Gørva footswitch and it wont be the last. Very nice gentle click.

Like A Prayer - Madge

Thank god there's no Candy Apple Red or I might have been in trouble.

Caramel. Butter. Creme Brulée. Crisps. Mmmm. Bass? What bass?

Aaaaand yet another thread descends into a pointless quote-fest and an argument that is barely relevant to the OP. Thanks for playing, everyone.

OK, I'm thinking I'll go for black, the wood's really not nice enough to show off... but as I'm in a ska band, a bit of the old B&W is in order. So I'm going to make the top look a bit like this: Yup, that's going to be a lot of squares of masking tape, but it should look cool if I can make it work!

I'm So Egg-cited - Pointer Sisters

Richy Titchy Pedalboard v2.0 currently in progress... the wood is assembled but I can't decide whether to go with black paint or just varnish. It's only scrappy bits of pine so TBH I'm leaning towards black. I wish I'd had some nice scrap wood to hand, a mahogany pedalboard would have been really cool.

To my mind, a singer sings. Even if they've got a terrible singing voice, even if they're trying but failing, if the intention is to set words to a tune, they're singing. Even if those words are "Shana-na-na, sha-na-na-na-na, yip-yip-yip-yip-yip-yip-yip-yip bmm-bmm-bmm-bmm-bmm-bmm, get a job", they're still words, to a tune, ergo singing. The moment the tune aspect entirely and intentionally disappears from the performance, e.g. rap etc., it's vocalising by a vocalist, not a singer. Michael Bublé and Tom Araya are singers, Chuck D and Dani Filth are not. Yes this is a bit of an over-simplification and I'm sure there are gaping holes that can be picked in it, but I know what I'm trying to say.
