That's what worries me....

I want to be friends with my band mates, and that means mutual respect. One of my bandmates is quite young and of mixed east-Asian heritage. He's not afraid to call out racism and do a bloody good job of it. Did have one odd situation... someone who was very performatively 'politically correct' - wouldn't do 'Hey Joe' as it's 'misogynistic'. Irony being that they were the sort of person who gave off a sort off creepy vibe at odds with their professed stance... they didn't last. I am considering getting a 'Stop the Scrotes' t-shirt. I'll let you decide who I think the scrotes are...

would I be in a band with someone who voted Reform? yes, would I be in a band with someone who voted for Corbyn? yes. Do I think that people with a penis should use ladies toilets? no, do I think people who are born male should be able to compete against people who were born female in sport? no. But could I be in a band with someone who thinks they should, yes.

I always use a Radial Stagebug SB 2. It's passive so no worries with psu's and circuitry not working at gigs (I know you're recording but if you use it later) and the transformer in it has a nice sound and difficult to overload. The di output is about 6 dB down as it's passive. About £80.

Kiss tribute band Hotter Than Hell at Leicester 02 tonight 🤘

Indeed; the "woke jokes" in this case, as far as I can tell, remarks about the woke things this chap doesn't like rather than jokes that are woke.

Aye, it’s all baaaarking!

And whether they had two or four legs.

I think his opinion would be based on whether the definition and indeed those who were defining it had the intent to protect downtrodden groups or protect those doing the treading.

So it all boils down to the daily mail vs the guardian, corbyn vs reform. the polarisation defined and the clock ticks. I hope i can escape before the main event because the challenges are enormous and those available to tackle them are woefully unprepared and living in different realities. they are setting up stalls and courting an electorate motivated by differing ideologies that have nothing in common apart from neither of them have anything to do with the crisis at hand. probably best to put the thread to bed as it’s circling an inevitable drain. bit like the uk financial system.

@Bill Fitzmaurice will be here soon to help you, don't worry.

Do you need to have the dirty sound at the same time as the clean sound, or could you use a reamp box to take the original recording and run it through the amp?

I wonder what would Mr Orwell have said about it, had he still been alive.

It's not going to be a reprise of the "Would you be in a band with a bigot?" thread is it?
