The sh** show that is Royal mail / ParcelForce
Beedster replied to leschirons's topic in General Discussion
For the last year at least I've used Parcelforce whenever possible, due in large part to the really good driver here. Anyway, tried to book a collection for Wednesday and it was a lot more complex than usual and didn't offer the usual time slots, which delayed the whole thing as I was only going to be home in the afternoon, albeit when the driver usually comes by (around 3.00 each day). Postman arrived yesterday morning with a load of bills and also asked for the items he had to collect, which were going into the back of his small postie van. Turns out that Parcelforce have now handed collections and deliveries to Royal Mail, which strikes me as a pretty bad move for us punters given RM are not exactly state of the art -
Oof, I love that! Lane Poor pickup too. Prototype then? More info needed!

Thanks for the advice My bones are mended. Got a call from the doctor last week after an X-ray and it's healed just fine, and I can put strain on my shoulder as usual. I was looking for a new strap because the metal plate is still on the bone and it's still sensitive. I have bought a Slinger strap a few weeks back, that was designed for your right shoulder and that works perfectly!

Hi, I haven't had these for long (I used to own both these pedals many years ago, but bought them for the second time recently), but a recent change in musical direction has now made these obsolete. I have about 700€ invested in these and I' m looking to get back 650€ for them which seems reasonable considering the ridiculous prices the seperate pedals go for these days. I'm selling to fund some new hardware and onboard pre-amp for my main axe, so I'm not interested in trades this time, sorry.. Shipping from Belgium. Sales pitch: Up for sale is this magnificant duo of rare pedals made by Spencer at 3 Leaf Audio. The Proton is his take on the Mutron III filter and it doesn't get much funkier than this! The Doom is a unique sounding fuzz that is extremely dynamic and can get supersynthy. When combined these pedals offer a wide variety of funky and synthy sounding tones that are used by lany great artist that are looking to get someyhing "extra" out of their pedalboard (think of Stuart Zenders work with Jamiroquai, Tim Lefebre, Janek Gwizdala,...) Due to the very limited production these are very hard to come by and they keep going up in value, so finding a set like these two is quite a rare opportunity. Both pedals come with the original packaging and can be shipped worldwide. Kind regards, Don

I will admit, I have noticed that bass players tend not to lean into an attitude of "prima-donna" that guitarists / singers often do. It is one of the reasons I was curious to switch to bass.

Is there a warm room in your house ? (where the boiler is or similar). Maybe some time in a dry / warm environment like that would help dry it out. And I agree 100% with the Bi Carb. Does wonders.

There’s a new 2 x 12 based on the 4 x10 size cab. That would be a good choice -

Mike Campbell- Heartbreaker Acclaimed autobiography of Tom Petty’s right hand man. Why wait six months for the paperback? Perfect hardback copy. Cover price £25, yours for £18 posted UK. Now £16…Now £15 This is genuinely my favourite music biography of the past year. Though I will never feel the same about Tom Petty again… Bit of publishers blurb: When a chance encounter with a guidance counsellor inspired him to enrol in the University of Florida, Campbell - broke, with nowhere else to go and the Vietnam draft looming - moved into a rundown farmhouse in Gainesville, where he met a twenty-year-old Tom Petty. They were soon inseparable. Together they chased their shared dream all the way to Los Angeles, where Campbell would meet his destiny, and the love of his life, Marcie. It was an at-times gruelling dream come true that took Campbell from the very bottom to the absolute top, where Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers would remain for decades, creating an astonishing body of work. Brilliant, soft-spoken and intensely private, Campbell opens up within these pages for the first time, revealing himself to be an astute observer of triumphs, tragedies and absurdities alike, with a songwriter's eye for the telling detail and a voice as direct and unpretentious as his music. Heartbreaker is Mike Campbell's heartfelt portrait of one throwaway kid's lifesaving love of music and the creative heights he achieved.

Reissue priced at £40.99, yours (new, sealed) for £25 posted UK. OMD’s 1985 album Crush, will be reissued for its 40th anniversary in October. The band’s sixth album features the singles ‘So In Love,’ and ‘Secret’, with the former reaching the top 30 of the charts on both sides of the Atlantic. The 2LP vinyl edition features seven unreleased tracks. Both formats include rare photos and comprehensive notes by journalist and author Jason Draper in conversation with Andy McCluskey. The 40th anniversary re-release of Crush has been a wonderful opportunity for us to re-assess the album. 1985 was a period of great intensity with constant touring and time pressure in the studio, but we created a powerful collection of songs and lyrical themes. In hindsight, we made a much better album than we knew at the time. Two hit singles ‘So in Love’ and ‘Secret’ remain live set constants to this day. ANDY MCCLUSKEY

Interesting! This was definitely a case left in the damp.

Kinda long video from someone who is doing the whole livestream thing - but somewhere in there is comparing the MXR, Enzo X, C4 and FI4 all custom settings as he’s the kinda guy who wants you to buy stuff on his patreon …

It's my life - No Doubt, I love the chorus part the bass plays! Also I am going to try Hysteria by Muse and it will definitely be a long term project!

The original is all programmed - probably on a TB303 by the sounds of it and the way the bass line divides up neatly into repeatable 1-bar blocks. The song also relies on the bass and the drums being absolutely metronomically solid and each note being precise, and therefore while the bassist in that clip is way, way better than I'll ever be, I found myself wincing over every tiny hesitation and slightly fluffed note.
