Absolutely - anything you can remove off the stage is going to be beneficial for the band sound. In a lot of smaller venues, electric kits are going to sound better than drum kits that are more difficult to control... volume wise. A lot of problems with feedback on stage are also down to poor mic technique. Really having the gain low and working the mic (having your lips right on the grille) will really help tighten up the sound. Less bleed again, less feedback. I think I added a section on my thoughts on all this in the last section of the opening posts. A good read if you haven't already - interested on people's thoughts on it.

Good choice, I like the M18 a lot. A solid foundation there for you! I guess that now means you are a 100% convert...?

Is that a new case? I hope so, that nail and wooden box effort was a terrible idea. That case is a nice touch. Nice work Barefaced. Oh and good to see that the typo of Nick Oliveri has been fixed.

I’d never trust anybody to have control of their own wedge. Asking for feedback central!

@Beedster's posting remains the one that got away

I'd be all over the EBS 802.

Its like a modern take on that 10cc cricket song.

Defo Hotcovers. Roqsolid are pretty pants in comparison.

It's like everything that was cool about the original.... has been zapped.

Bow finishing.

This looks great

OK, I was joking when I said quo earlier.

Now that's a prelude to pornography if I ever heard it... Hmm... "a prelude to pornography" sounds like the title to my next song...

Oh man, I just gone off to listen to it. My grandpa used to have this on an old 78 and I never clocked. What a moron! I prefer boring Bob's take on it though! At 1:17, I suddenly feel like I'm in the Lovebug movie.... It's not just me who hears the same vibe? Is it...?

Have you ever considered that the Internet.... is not for you?

Richard Slexia messing about on TOTP playbacks before it was cool.

Indeed - Tom Hark. I didn't include that one, based on the fact it was a cover, despite it being their err... breakout track.

Quo </thread>

As the title says... I was having a conversation with a mate about music that is fundamentally cheesy, or novelty based... but still has a certain amount of musicality, cleverness or/and credibility about it. Has anybody got some examples that they want to throw into the mix? I offer up one of the first tracks I came up with... The Piranhas with Zambezi. From you can tell from the get go, they are firmly placing themselves tongue in cheek in their appearance... but the song stands up... well imho anyway. Any other suggestions of songs that are on the cusp?

Your comment made me read the wiki page associated with the album. Found this little gem of a quote. "The music was too polite," Rick Parfitt later remarked of the album. "There was no weight behind what we were doing. The edge had gone; we weren't real anymore." It did confirm my suspicions of a Charvel deal too.

I think I hang out at different pubs, ones that aren't tobacco stained.

Enjoying about your experiences through the range. One thing that I will throw into the discussion pool though, is that the sound of an IEM can be influences by a global EQ across the aux out. Now while I understand that it's nice to have an IEM sounding "right" without any processing, the option is of course there. As for the band, well, I can't help you much on that one!

Lol!

Now we are talking. I'm very interesting to see how you get on with those quads.
