Thomanns time travel service. 👍🏻

Big shout out to @geoffbassist great YouTube channel. Thanks for the “how to change strings” video. I have changed strings many times, but always felt I’d not done a great job. So this time I thought I’d try a tutorial. Geoffs video was enormously helpful, thank you. Loads of interesting and helpful videos on your channel. Good job.

Ordered double bass string set late Tuesday night, just been delivered to my door by UPS.

“Entry was not with intent to intimidate." Depends on which end of the broom your holding 😳

Thanks Chris. But to be fair, nobody knew who we were, The Bangles were on before us and Southside Johnny after us, so it was his way of making the watching audience too dizzy to get up and make a cuppa 😂. I think I slapped most of the way through the album this came from. Quite unnecessarily too 🤦🏻‍♂️ but no one said “oi you! mullet boy! Stop that now! Kajagoogoo have kajagonegone” Which goes to prove “Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should”

Yah wanna see someone slappin the buggery out of his Thunder iii back in 85??Do ya?? Mmm? Warning: 80’s Mullet in use. ref clothing choice: I was picked up and charged by the fashion police immediately after arriving back in uk. Warning: No funk involved. (The mullet was returned to the original owner, unharmed by September 85.)

Or the bank balance? 😉

How soon do you need to make a decision?

On a more serious note. Guild are such class aren’t they. I'd probably keep that one, just coz it’s a Guild. Which one do you like playing most of all? Which one do you pick up first? Apart from the nearest one....😊

I’d keep the one on the right. It looks like it’ll hunt you down and use it’s particular skill set to hurt you very much, if you let it go.

Maybe howling at the moon would be a more healthy way of venting that frustration? Howling at your fan base seems a little provocative. I do have a soft spot for the“troubled/grumpy/difficult artist” as they often have seams of creativity that are both exciting and have a feel of danger. But there must come a time when WW should say to himself “I’m not going to get what I want here, I have access to some wonderful musicians that can help me express my ideas, I can afford to pay someone to make my bed every day, good luck to DG and the rest, I’m off to give my fans some wonderful music, especially at this time when others are struggling to put food on the table and are worried shitless about the world”? No?

As an observation, not on PF, RW or DG specifically, but I don’t understand this modern trend to treat the online world as a surrogate parent. Using social media platforms to gain approval or to complain about “how those boys over there have been mean”, hoping presumably that the response will be “oh you poor thing, how about we go down the park and you can go on the swings?” Am I being a mean boy? 🤪 Anyway as you were....PF pre and post RW ....anyone? 😊

Mmmm sounds like a lockdown challenge..🤪

Lazy sod.

Well hellloooo! 🤓

Really enjoyed that. Not heard anyone break down something that complex in such an accessible way. Loved: His enthusiasm, his humility (“I don’t have the chops”), his knowledge and communication skills. I’m sure there are many youtubers who have “the chops” and post this, or similarly diifikult choons, note for note but, don’t communicate as well as this gentleman. Thanks for sharing, I’ve subscribed to his YT channel.
