Anyone bought from Thomann recently? Experience?
Rosie C replied to Twigman's topic in General Discussion
No, for my parcels at least you get 3-4 days when the status is mysteriously "travelling to the border" which conjures up 1970s cold war spy dramas... -

Lately it's been around a week for items to arrive for me, sometimes a little longer. I'd prefer not to use Thomann but for some things they're so much cheaper than anywhere else -
Equipment failures - always the worst time!
Rosie C replied to Jakester's topic in General Discussion
Very true. My most recent was just before Christmas - guesting on piano accordion with our town brass band, and having learned a dozen carols from the Salvation Army carol book, which includes tunes in D♭ and G♭ key signatures. At the start of the second tune, an internal part attached by wax detached and that was my gig over. Of course if I'd been playing bass this would not have happened! -
NGD — but the gigbag is a bit whiffy

Ah, sorry, I was skimming through while waiting at the GP surgery and didn't see your reply. I managed to find a soft bag for my guitar-bodied mandolin at my local music shop but it had been on display years and was very dusty - but a run through the washing machine worked wonders. -

Depending on the material, put it a washing machine? -
I have Pro 17s for playing with our Morris band. I also have the Evolve Ambient IEMs which also have a 17 dB reduction.

Especially back in the day making round-backed lutes. I'd love to make something like this, but my woodworking skills extend only about as far as putting up a batten for a curtain rail!

Indeed, by Jarred Cooper!

It was not King of Kings, Lord of Lords. Nor was it King of Kings, the King of Glory Comes. In fact it was King of Kings, Majesty

'tis indeed! After services, as people are milling for coffee, our band leader has a habit of choosing one of the hymns and playing it again but in a different time signature, or swung, just to keep us on our toes! No jazz today though, we had violin and 'cello instead of cornet.

My own understanding is that in addition to repairs and setup of instruments, a luthier actually makes instruments too. I'm guessing the word comes from 'lute' in the deep and distant past?

Our three core band members (keys, cornet, bass) each have the organ/piano book of "Hymns Old and New" (the green book). The congregation have the book of words to go with so that's 80% of what we play. But there's a printed sheet for each week with the readings and a suggested hymn, and that's when it gets interesting. The three of us also play in a big band together, so we're reasonably good at improvising something together.

Oh Worship the King is the only one I already know. Our version of "Do Not Be Afraid" is in Kevin Mayhew's green "Hymns Old and New: Anglican Version". I'm taking a punt on "King of Kings" being King of Kings (Lord of Lords) from Kevin Mayhew's orange "Complete Anglican Hymns: Old and New". But there's a version in Graham Kendrick's "The Source" too.

I've just finished preparing for tomorrow's service. Of the 5 hymns, 4 are new, so it should be particularly good experience. O Worship the King O Let the Son of God Enfold you Do Not Be Afraid King of Kings O Worship the Lord

I have the same one! Excellent value for what they cost.
