Like the bass line i played in this video

Frankly I doubt most people will see it, you turn up unannounced on a forum, and post a link to a dodgy website saying 'heres my video', only a very small percentage of people will click it (luckily, no way should you click something like that - I used a browser with all the defenses and private mode on so it couldn't do any damage). Ultimately music is about what you feel, and if it makes him happy then so be it, that is enough for art (although judging by his other videos he doesn't seem very happy), but it is like some people i know that paint who are objectively terrible. it makes them happy to paint, it just makes other people less happy when asked what they think! -

I bought some strings for an acoustic bass from Joel and instead of what I wanted he sent house bricks then hid the money in a secret Swiss bank account behind the vengeful wrath of PayPal - then he sent a message full of laugh emoticons entitled “can’t touch this” to Hammer the point home. * never again ** * not actually true ** ditto

Yes, it was formed as a 'video streaming site where videos can't be censored', so basically hate speech -

There was that time someone posted a very competently played funk cover by a bunch of talented Japanese ladies and still only a few people liked it, tough crowd here @aeonspromise -

Possibly we are not your target market - average age here is 94, and the grumpy version of it (irony, btw) -

Amp books
The fasting showman posted a topic in Accessories & Other Musically Related Items For Sale
Amp books, prices based on being cheaper than a quick online search. UK only, some of these are heavy so I'm assuming £5 postage for which I'll try and buy the best postage deal. Will combine if needed obviously. Groove Tubes book. Good for info, taken with a pinch of salt, many tech articles and schematics. £25 plus postage. Gerald Weber ' a desktop reference of hip vintage guitar amps'. I'd review it similarly to the above. £20 + postage Teagle and Sprung Fender amps, £10 + postage couldn't add pic, will try again later. Many thanks for viewing, Martin -

Pubs and venues to be protected from noise complaints

I guess, for a definition of loud, yes. Acoustic drums are loud and a vast number of tub thumpers don't know how to/won't play softly, or use Thai Sticks (other musicians are sometimes just as guilty with their, "It's how I get my sound," attitude*). Therefore, everyone in the band has to play to level of the drums (or the *plonker mentioned earlier). So that's the loudness of the drums (or *), multiplied by the other members in the band. All it takes is for someone to tweak their volume (either through playing harder or thinking they can't be heard and hitting output knob) and then, more often than not, we're off to the db races. The problem lies in turning up all the time, rather than turning down the offending instrument (often because requests to the party involved result in a huff - this regardless of experience, age, etc 🤦♂️). It is a problem as old as music and exacerbated in recent times with the obsession with sub bass (no doubt encouraged by the DJ scene) and miking up the bass drum in venues where the drum kit is already loud enough to stun small animals at the back of the room. Perhaps this is why duos really became popular with some venues, not some spurious licence restriction. -

To be fair, the majority of BC membership is full of grumpy old barstools so getting them to 'like' a video is like poking a hungry bear. 😆 -

Ya know mankind has been real busy following what it thinks is successful while the world burns because folks don't think for themselves...now why would anyone want to sound like another ..oh yes theory...math music.. Where's the heart...that's where music lives, not in kissing others butto be accepted..I get it, I'm different..thank God.. Got Jesus? -

Recreating the synth part of The Weekend's One Right Now with my MXR Bass Synth. Pedal can't play super fast though but I still think it's incredible. These pedals, including the C4 Synth, do what they do but you got to play to their limits. Also, my wife loves The Weekend and Synth stuff so she requested this. @Sharkfinger Tried to play Ain't Nobody in the original tempo, and the pedal can't keep up to get an articulate sound like the record, Slower tempo you can do it but that;s no fun! I'm still exploring with all the parameters though so I may be missing something or maybe I'm just a bad player =(

yep I do it by ear But in my bands, everyone is good at balancing their voices with mine, I'm lucky really, they're all good singers
