Liking this. Not so much the short scale though. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/144531899530?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=o6dCGPhITKe&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=apR0TlihRse&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Another flight of fancy from Alex?

Although I stopped playing in church a few years ago for many reasons, some listed above, I think it’s fair to say not everyone’s experience is negative. So don’t let mine and others frustrations put you off. Perhaps it’s about laying out your expectations and listening to your new church’s expectations and seeing if they match, or compromise can be reached. So much goes unsaid and much is assumed, and I think this is a shaky foundation. You want to play with others, maybe your new church environment is the place, maybe it isn’t. You’ll only know if you find out some more info. If it transpires that it’s not even after you have “joined” a rota. It’s ok to stop, it really is. Hope you find some peeps to play with, whether it’s at St Kevin’s on a Sunday morning or The Kebab and Calculator on a Saturday night (or both). P&L

Mr Dart is a funky player, but…. Why is Mark Ronson overdubbing the voices?

I am the youngest of 3 boys. My brothers were 9 & 10 years older than me. I became aware and interested in what they were listening to when I was about 9-10 years old in about 1970-71. So I was influenced by their record collection and excited when they brought something new into the house. One was into rock and the other into choral music and lighter vocal pop. So my introduction into music ranged from Cream, The Who, Hendrix, Free through to Bach, Manhattan Transfer, Helen Reddy & early Elton John. I still love all of the above. After that, it was mates purchases as I didn’t listen to radio and only occasionally watched TOTPs (although Bowie performing Star Man had a huge impact on my musical and stylistic sensibilities). Watching Slade in Flame also massively influenced me and a mate to start a band.

That’s so you can get your big hands through at least one sleeve.

Thought some of you guys might like this.

No one complain how bigger it used to be back in the day?

I’ve PM’d you.

I’ll get in touch and let you know.

My mate services and repairs vintage hifi. He’s a proper geek with it. His shop is in Sherborne. Bit too far?

Oh dear. Anarchic threats with Eton accents 🤦🏻‍♂️
