At the risk of getting overtly political, because we know how BC feels about that, this idea that we all left and right need to align and come together to take down *those lot up there* is well intended but futile. I wont come together with anyone whose views on certain subjects are diametrically opposed to mine. Subjects like racism or migration? I won’t stand alongside anyone who parrots the sort of claptrap we now sadly hear every day of the week from GBeebies. Am I in the same social strata as Dave the rascist over the road? Yes. Will I stand alongside him? Hell no. Not now, not ever.

Another request, a transcription of the Stevie Wonder/Aretha Franklin duet on Wonder's composition 'Until You Come Back To Me' from the 10th Annual Soul Awards in 2005. Consensus is the bass player is Nathan Watts but we are open to challenge as we cannot find confirmation anywhere online. https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/until-you-come-back-to-me-stevie-wonder-aretha-franklin/

Just seen this today Damn!

F**k it. Broke out the credit card and ordered one. This I have to try.

After a couple of recent gig mishaps with trailing leads changing my compressor settings mid-song, I've made a (prototype) acrylic shield today!

If I won the lottery and had no kids or a mortgage

Being a shameless Mesa fanboy (I've had a Mk IV guitar combo and a Stereo 2:50 power amp) gigged a Carbine M6 for years, currently have a WB Scout and a 400+, I'm interested in @agedhorse view or the industry take on new solid state analogue amps. The new Gallien RB Legacy heads were a huge surprise, they're big, heavy and really expensive and seem to be bucking the trend that we're seeing with the move to class D. I thought the Fusion 550 would be the last big analogue GK but was wrong. I look at the RB Legacy (I own 3 GKs) and wonder what customers, that don't have a road crew, touring budget and trucks, are going to buy them. Mesa must've gauged the market and conceptualised, however briefly, doing a modern take on a Carbine/BigBlock/Titan? Like a WD/TT/BD-800 front end with a big analogue power section?

Dave, Agreed and two gig weekends are tough at my age. Daryl

Came across this by chance and was thinking that if not you Andy, someone here should 👍

1979 was actually the best year in the 80s for music! So many great songs that year

Huh? Whut? Did someone say something? 😂 Blimey that's an OLD video! I look young!! I think GI are recycling previously released material - which is no bad thing. Not that I earn any more for reusing 'em!

I can't find the car thread but the immortal line that sticks with me is "Mate, your f***ing cab has broken my car.....". We got the 1516 in the back, were walking around to the front seats to get in when we heard an ominous crack from the suspension. The rest, as they say, is history 👍

Here's the first, it still makes me laugh every time I think about it mate......

1986 😆 and thank you 🤘🏻

I shall be taking both my 400+ and a Monaco (two actually) to the SW + SE Bashes if anyone is interested. Hearing the 400+ vs the 800D through the same cabs would be interesting.

Would you like a slot at the SE Bass Bash to regale us with your 1516 dits, Chris? I'd be front row, obviously 😀

Why humanely?

Love that fact (and loving your music too!) When was the Friday rock show?
