What an outrageous suggestion! 😉

I've just had flashbacks after watching this. Some songs and videos should have been buried and forgotten a long time ago. That dance with the blokes takes me back to the village hall in Tupton and watching older kids doing it. It looked shite then and hasn't got any better now. Oddly enough Ballroom Blitz isn't one of the songs to be buried and forgotten about (at least to me).

It's almost as if the MDs know what they're doing. 🤣

They do indeed. Sometimes it's possible to anticipate them too. Preview shows can be very educational.

I remember that dance that people did to Mud records, putting their thumbs in their belts and moving their shoulders ect. It was a dance that blokes could do after drinking lots of beer Little-known fact: Despite being from Surrey, Mud front man Les Gray was a lifelong fanatical Leeds United supporter.

Egyptian reggae. Jonathan Richman

After 1 or 2 shows the 'vamp' bits become pretty obvious.

If it helps I’m not seeing any ads on iPad or iPhone

Mummy dust - ghost

I wouldn't quite go that far about the advertising TBH. It's a bit annoying and it appears on my laptop but not on the mobile. If it was a case of you sorting out medical issues vs advertising, it's 100% clear what you should do. And no it's not the advertising just to be clear 🙄

First gig I was ever meant to go to was Mud, think was Nov/Dec 1975. As was usual for that time of year I got a rotten cold so couldn’t go. Bah!

I have a number of good and bad buys. I have to say (at the risk of being expelled, excommunicated and otherwise labelled as a heretic) that the purchase of an 87 MIJ Strat from here, was one of my best buys of the year for me. Its a dammed fine guitar that just begs to be played. It's no showroom queen and it's all the better for it. It's great for songwriting so I actually play the bass more as well. A songwriting course in Kendal. I learnt so much from Ann Marie I want to do it again. Worst purchases Some crappy Fender guitar cables. Buy a decent cable from @Chienmortbb and just have done with it. The MS1-Vave Bluetooth adapter. Junk. Any purchase that I thought would short circuit me having to learn how to play bass guitar properly. I'm still learning and I expect to keep learning until the day I stop and there's nothing wrong with that. Am looking for a decent acoustic for next year and a decent precision to see what all the fuss is about. I also wouldn't mind a es355 if one fell in my lap. Rob

I'm actually so old that I remember my friends older sister coming home and furiously whacking him with her wooden sandal as punishment for playing her Mud records without permission while she was out at youth club. That young girls in those days gravitated towards a group of blokes who looked, dressed and sounded like Mud says a lot about what a macabre time the mid-1970's was in Britain.

Supporting members shouldn’t see any ads, something isn’t set up properly I think.

Can you give more info as to what your current setup is? I've got some ideas, but all dependent on what you're using.

well, that is pretty unpleasant. i nneed to do some updates to advertising, which I have not been on due to the house medical issues, but I will look into it

Not the NW? I feel offended.. 😩 Would have to agree with @neepheid here. We don't have that many Bass Bashes and to have two on the same day seems very unfortunate. Rob
