Kev, thanks. Yes it does open up a debate, and one that could have happened here in this thread, because two well respected members highlighted IP and ecological factors, and I'd have hoped that the community response, as well as the moderating response, would have considered whether, as a online community, we should think more carefully about responsible use of the web. Absolutely we've probably all been on the wrong side of both debates at some point, but given we're currently sleepwalking into potentially catastrophic I/P and ecological crises - which effects us all as musicians and probably beyond (AI has already had a pretty disastrous impact on my field) - it would have been lovely to see support for those members who voiced concerns 👍

Depends, subscription to Chatgpt is paid, or it's free for a limited number of pictures

That’s incredible fine a creativity point of view

Last time I checked, forever appreciated Just on the topic of my little joke that I presume you didn't chuckle at, it does still open an interesting debate as to why it is OK to accept an individual deliberately copying another person's/company's work for a profit without license, but a computer doing it anonymously for free is somehow abhorrent? (presumably it is free and people aren't paying to do this, I haven't tried making a muppet me, as indeed I am already too much of one as it is)

We are playing the Town Hall in Kirriemuir on Saturday, the third and final band on that days events. We have played twice before with the guys doing the sound and know them but it`s the guitarist`s who have no concept of volume who will get it in the ear. And I don`t think there is any chance of clearing the venue for a soundcheck.

Filling in the name - RATM

Words of Wisdom Teeth - Christopher Cross

I use 2x Ashdown Pro Neo 15s with an ABM 600 head. Sometimes I only take a single cab. I used to use the Ashdown Rootmaster lightweight cabs too, both the fifteen and 2x10 versions, they're also good and very cheap second hand.

You are, of course, correct. I have dropped the price by 30%.

I wonder how much of an advance it is over the MOD Dwarf - same designer, after all (see from 2:45 or so).

Get to a venue well ahead of 'first set' or playing time. Leave nothing to chance. Your overall sound.... .....is everything 😉

All Gums blazing - Judas Priest

This. Bang on. 👍🏼

memory lane - my first bass was an Eros jazz copy, from Greenhalgh's Music, Fore St., Exeter (in 1977) which I think was the shop before Manson's came on the scene. Sad to see another shop go, but if you don't use it you'll lose it as they say.

Baby Take Your Teeth Out -FZ-

I've got 1000+ feedbacks at 100% and I'm not going to bother with them again. You sell one decent guitar or bass and you are then monitored by HMRC - I'm not a business and I don't want to have to keep accounts to justify the losses I make when I sell instruments.
