  1. My favourite wasnt mine but my brothers. Played a festival somewhere in europe and the drummer is really late for their soundcheck and no where to be seen. They head to the hotel where he was staying and they hear music or a tv inside but theres no answer, they are geniuely worried now so get the staff to open up the room. Heading inside they find the drummer in massive bubble bath with two women, painting nails, doing hair (they were very glam!) and drinking champagne. The rest of the band are like, what the hell are you doing we needed to sound check like an hour ago. Perfectly serious looks at them all and says, "Just having a bath..."
  2. Were you rocking a slap bass solo at some point during the service?๐Ÿ˜ aww thatโ€™s very nice. I seem to only get complements when I play the kids songs, only time I feel itโ€™s ok to have a little bit of fun! edit - sorry to add, I have only ever got that one compliment ๐Ÿคฃ not every time.
  3. Different person on PA? Caffeine isnโ€™t a bad one though ๐Ÿ˜€ Always notice when I leave work the music in the car is much louder, in the mornings I just blast it out! How did you sleep? ๐Ÿ˜
  4. Curiously, what would everyone be looking for in a programme for this, other than lots of tea/coffee and biscuits?
  5. Wow that is interesting! It's suprising how good some stuff can sound these days. For christmas I got the VOX amplug3 for bass, its surprising how good that sounds, I read a lot of people just take the 3.5mm phones output to record from. Don't let your sound guys know
  6. Yeah I always wonder if its like a tax avoidance thing I have actually had a problem with my Linsoul ones though. It just couldnt cope in one ear with certain frequencies, I guess it might just be a broken driver or something. My wife has another pair and now I know what to listen for I can hear it struggling a bit, especially with a full band playing, but saying that its really no where near as bad as my broken one. I'm actually considering at the moment really forking out for some proper molded ones, pricey, but I think I can just just about justify them.
  7. Ok thank you so much everyone. I have tried my wifes IEM's which are the same make and it's not happening (though I kinda hear it struggling). I've also gone through studio headphones and every other headphones I can find in the house and it isn't happening. I just assumed it was me... wow... that makes me very happy Thank you! I'm still going to get someone else just to double check they can hear what I can through my IEM's but hoping its just that. Then I am going to invest in a better pair of IEM's!
  8. Nice, thanks to you both. I dont know why I hadn't really considered that. So happens no matter what really, from playing live direct from the PA, through my DI or even the little VOX plugin amp thing someone bought me. I'm going to play around with it later! And hopefully then just order some better IEM's
  9. That's... actually fair point, I hadn't considered it might be the IEM's! I got some Linsol KZ ZS10's which aren't too expensive, and recommending in another thread. But I will get my wife to try them later.
  10. So bit of an odd one, but before I start, I am going to see an ENT doctor about this so not really looking for medical advice just curious if anyone else has experienced this. I have suffered from tinitus for my whole life. I mainly only hear the ringing at night and to me thats always what night time sounds like, a high pitched ringing. Although if I think about it, like writing this message, I can hear it. Fairly recently I realised, when wearing IEM's I am hearing some notes sharp in my right ear. F3 is the most noteable for me, sounds sharp, especially if I do a scale up to it. Now take the IEM out of my right ear and everything sounds fine. Through an amp, and everything is all good. I've tried on the guitar and everything seems normal and different basses do seem to be a little better/worse which is odd. Just curious if anyone else has experienced this? It's kinda freaking me out a bit.
  11. I seem to remember... and a quick search to confirm... you got it, its called an alternating time signature!
  12. I like it, it beats a spread sheet emailed every two months thats for sure. Being able to swap with someone on the system is great, then the worship leader can just check who is on the rota the week before to and email songs out to everyone etc. We have our order of services on there too which is nice. Really easy to add unavailablity for the worship leader to organise the rota. I certainly don't have to do much to do with the admin side so not sure what the set up side is like. Maybe a little be clunky on mobile but other than that I think its a great organiser, has certainly improved the worship teams organisation.
  13. And another for the KZ ZS10's, which I got after reading the IEM thread from a recommendation. My wife has some too and loves them, she plays the flute. I love IEMS now, we all now have Allen and Heath ME 500's and its great just to be able to mix your own monitor. Minininjarob - good luck with your practice and playing! Just remember, everyone starts somewhere and everyone makes mistakes and barely anyone notices. Even the "best" of us... on sunday... started to play a chorus intead of a verse
  14. And you could take it even further! John 3.16 in 3/16 ๐Ÿ˜…
  15. Yeah we tried to do that a while back and it blew our young drummers mind Bless him. We all got there though with some practice. Then followed it up with a Getty in an odd time signature too. I love it.
  16. I might do, have to admit its rather a large congregation and I am shocking with names! People still ask if we have just joined and been there about 5 years now... Oh now I like that idea for the amp head.
  17. Yes, St Lukes Indeed a small world! Only been going along since Jan but my wife laughs at me every week checking out the Trace and Ashdown. I play in Above Bar but we all go in direct now, so just through my SansAmp Bass DI at the moment. But got the bug to try out some new DI's My brother forced me a take an old Peavy T-Max bass amp head from him... its slightly overkill for what I need and insanely heavy compared to modern equilivants...will probably be on the look out for a new amp set up for some cover/pub band stuff at some stage.
  18. Huh, hopefully not too "stalkery".... I think I do slimming world in your Church building! Always check out the bass amp when standing in line (just looking, no touching I promise! ). Have to hear your story!
  19. Nice! I don't know what I would do without my personal mixer these days, so spoiled But nice about the PC screen and chord charts! That would be amazing.
  20. Just seeing if anyone would like this Landlord spinning room. Cheap pedal, with multi effects like, Chorus, flange, tremlo & filter. Does it work well on bass I hear you say... kinda... sometimes... I'm just looking to see if I can get it away as I never use it anymore. Comes with a box! Just the box, no instructions if there ever were any. ยฃ10 including postage, for someone who's bored!
  21. Unfortunately I have now got something on in the morning I can't avoid... my promise of cake is a bit lacking. I'm still hoping to get there in the afternoon though.
  22. Just echoing others here. Don't be afraid to take a break for a while if its all getting to you! When I got to a certain point a while ago my wife wisely said, "There's a difference between needing to take a break and having to take a break." I would recommend to protect yourself a little and try not to get to the point where you are forced to take one. Go on sound desk where no one takes note or thanks you
  23. Ha this is great! Just stumbled across your post. Even just to hear Matt Redman sound like he's trying to sing like the Andrew Eldrich from the Sisters of Mercy I am going to try this out! Great suggestion. EDIT - Alright, maybe not as metal as I hoped for. ๐Ÿ˜… Still great tool!
  24. Cake ๐Ÿฐ ๐Ÿ˜‰
  25. Thanks! I'm just always curious where stuff I buy is manufactured, not just basses.
