Went today (Sunday) not much on the bass front but ok otherwise. Watched Doug Wimbish........ Oh dear me what a pile of crap !, He was 20 mins late starting, then his set was just how many noises can I get from a load of processors/foot pedals. He didn't to me show any skill as a bass player. I know this sounds harsh but I really think any of us could have made that kind of noise just as well if not better. I don't like to down any fellow musician but this really was crap ! A very disappointed BIGd

A good way I have used is, each member of the band brings a book to rehearsal, player 1 chooses a page number, player 2 paragraph, P3 line & P4 number of word along line. It can be done a few times till you come up with something you like. I was in a band called "Dr White & the heavy Bleeders" in the late 70's, don't think you would get away with it now. Still makes me smile though. Taz very glad BIGd

I have 3797 basses and I play um all ....... every day ..... twice. BIGd

Great to meet, paid in cash, even after the main item he wanted went walkabout. Ta very Glad BIGd

if you have been in bands for as long as me......(long time) you do come across musicians who you think are not very good or as you put it suck. My way to deal with this is to tell the person in question they are not quite right for this band/ group but thank them for there time etc. They my be rubbish for you but in a different group/setting who knows. Never easy to get rid of someone but sometimes it needs to be done, but there is always a good way and a bad way. You could just YOU SUCK now F%CK O$F up to you as to what might be best. You choose.

Do you think big box powders get your whites really white ? BIGd Ps. not whishing to gloat but, it's gona be dam hot again today. The heat & the farmers muck spreading.................great mix !

I'm on the top of the Pennines right in the middle of tYorhshire & tLancashire in Saddleworth, but it's very hot today here. As you asked I like it hot...........oh feck! you got me doin it now........... Made me Laugh anyhow BIGd

It seems that all that is on this forum of late is "what is best" kind of topics. Good god enough man !. We used to have really good topics not just pointless crap like this. BIGd grumpy old git coz it's tttttttttttttttttttttttooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooottttttttttttttttt.

Just been in Sound Control Manchester (Salford) MM SUB in a green. This bass has a scratch on the back of the neck, don't get in the way when playing, and with the scratch being on the back of the head/top of neck, o0nly you need know its there. If you haggle you should get it for £500, that's what I got it down to. I was dealing with Ben or you could talk to Chris (the big boss man). Looks like a bargin to me, just not my type of bass.

Going, going................................................................... gone, to a good home.
