thisnameistaken Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 If we're truly going to look like a forum of 40-somethings who weren't even cool when they were teenagers we will need to pull our socks up and start more Level 42 threads. Rush threads would also be satisfactory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mep Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 (edited) Let me know when there are 42 threads about Level 42. Where are all the Rush ones? How did you know I wasn't cool as a teenager as well? Edited October 8, 2010 by mep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 (edited) Can I say that, in addition to seeing Level 42 in 1983 at Oxford Poly, I also saw Renaissance ('the Northern Lights') a few years before that There aren't enough Renaissance threads In fact this may be the first mention of Renaissance ever on BassChat. Fancy that? Edited October 8, 2010 by Clarky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarky Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Rush and Renaissance both start with the letter 'R' and contain the letter 's'. The similarities are becoming spooky. Whereas Level 42 contains neither. Proof if ever it was needed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Precision Basses also have numerous design Flaws. Fender on the whole are gash. But if you choose anything more expensive, you're obviously some kind of bellend. Slap is dated and sh*t, and playing with a pick is for talentless morons. If you play with Fingers, you're steady and workmanlike, but too flashy for some, yet not enough for others. Er...trying to think of other things to whinge about, i mean, why on earth would we have to agree to disagree?..blah. Still, i've always been a Level42 fan, and while they may 'offend' some they're still enjoyable for others. Shame on me.

fender73 Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 I've always liked Rush42, that Geddy King is a great player Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purpleblob Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 (edited) Damn, sorry guys - I was in the wrong thread. Just seen the title on this thread and you're spot on mate - there can never be enough threads on Level 42, the great Mark King and may I also suggest Rush as they are one of my all time fav. bands. I wonder what happened to Triumph the Rush-lite of their time - I need to go google, but keep up the good thread on Level 42. Did I also say I saw Level 42 back in their heyday at Leeds Uni. top class act. Anyway, back to googling for Triumph EDIT: I'm back from a little google and look what I found - one for the bassists (not quite Mark King or Geddy Lee but nice white Jazz, fits in well with the white flairs). Now off to find this Rush42 - they sound the bee's knee's. Edited October 8, 2010 by purpleblob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil.i.stein Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Dear Learner: It happens to me, the Yi is not answering your question but pointing events to come in your own life (only you can know for sure if this is indeed true) The very good thing is from 42:3 indicates that with some work on your part, you will experience Increase. The former reading 42:2,3,5 = 26 Well, well how nice 42:2 usually means money and its not from any effort on your part. 42:3 has already been discussed, and 42:5 indicates peace, prosperity and a wonderfully kind heart. I think this influence is so strong in your aura right now the Yi is not answering. Try this - if you really want a answer to that relationship question, meditate and center yourself and do some sort of ritual before you inquire.

thisnameistaken Posted October 9, 2010 Author Share Posted October 9, 2010 [quote name='bubinga5' post='982025' date='Oct 8 2010, 09:01 PM']tis still killer [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yioVmqlt2Fk&NR=1"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yioVmqlt2Fk&NR=1[/url][/quote] It would be better if he didn't feel the need to slap EVERYTHING. I like the way there is the odd Level 42 song where he picks with his fingers and IIRC one where he plays fretless, just to give credence to fanboys who want to call him versatile.

TimR Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Yeah that Leddy King bloke who plays the long guitar with only four strings and can sing at the same time is awesome. He doesn't even use a pick. You should check out their 4224 album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassPimp66 Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Who's going to the Level 42 gig at the O2 London this month????? I am !!!! Let me know if you want to start a Mark King Appreciation Society around a few a beers on that day. Cheers, Arnaldo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
