I'd love to play in there, but it's a bit cramped for us and they don't really want covers bands. Ho hum.

Our rehearsal space has Ashdown Rootmaster 500 heads through ABM 8x10 cabs. It's awesome.

Current song learning for the band is Shout by Tears For Fears. Not massively complicated, but a nicely tricky little solo in the bridge makes it fun.

Option 2 for sure. My amp hardly ever needs updating significantly but our guitarist needs to adjust for each venue, sometimes several times during the set but at least the base volume is about right.

I'm not saying that everything by Oasis is a banger because that's demonstrably untrue, however there are some of their catalogue that would be extremely popular were we to play them, however it's just a flat no.

I'm familiar with Pinky & The Brain. I saw a post the other day when someone said that they'd be willing to hear Brain's plans, to which someone astutely responded that at this point they'd be willing to hear Pinky's!

You can, and you can always opt to not accept them at the point of collection/delivery whereupon the person bringing the stuff will invariably process your refund on the spot.

Beeyooteefool!

Pretty good rehearsal on Sunday (yes, I'm a bit late), and I think we have our two new tunes almost nailed. We had a bit of a chat about more new tunes but I don't think certain members of the band have much ambition in terms of what we should add to our set list. A number of absolute bangers (e.g. Go Your Own Way, or anything by Oasis) have been dismissed out of hand because the singer is vehemently opposed, so we're reduced to now learning a couple of plodders by Tears For Fears and Somewhere In My Heart by Aztec Camera, none of which I think will exactly get people in a party mood. Ah well, I'll have to put more effort in, because the last song I proposed (Two Tribes) is now a well-established crowd and band favourite. The seeming tradition of arranging rehearsals on holidays continues, as after having one on Easter Sunday the next date we can all do before our next gig in August is on Fathers Day.

Just had a follow up from my MP who apparently sent my concerns to the Secretary of State. I'm not sure the reply really says anything we didn't already know though.

With Trumpty Dumpty wanting to annexe Canada. Lame attempt at humour, just ignore.

*gestures vaguely at Brexit, Trump, etc.*

I once ordered sour cream from Tesco and they didn't have it in stock, so instead they substituted a £10 bottle of Pinot Grigio. It would have been rude to send it back, frankly.

Other way round these days though

However they seem like scholars compared to people in the Andertons videos, where they didn't even know how to pronounce Sadowsky for example.

This is also the case when it's in other basses too, it does the same sort of thing in my Sire

The last few times I've seen Tal playing she's been using a P-bass in preference to the Sadowsky

Ian is from Montana

This range will be competing with Sire and the Sadowsky MetroExpress range primarily, and I'm not sure what these bring to the table to make them stand out other than being a more recognisable brand to muggles.

My relatives live in Poulton and we go there quite often. It's a shame the café on the prom has gone downhill now despite its Star Wars fame.

Having relatives in the area surrounding Blackpool I don't think many of them are particularly happy with their proximity to Blackpool

Do you mean Blackpool? Because Lytham is nowhere near Liverpool.
