All Activity

Must be different in France, then. We were registered as an association, just like the local tennis club, a music school and the organising of our local music festivals. All declared as 'non-profit' associations.

I think this is where the issues lie. A football club etc is a club or society and it will have members who pay a subscription. They will have some sort of constitution/governing document which will means they are an 'unincorporated society' in legal terms run by a committee. A band is not a club/society but a group of people with a common business interest, which is not the same thing. They aren't going to be able to submit a governing document and list who's the chair/secretary/treasurer etc. They'd have to register as some sort of business structure.

The results are in! Based upon the OP's supplied internal dimensions, the Faital and the LaVoce are very close. WinISD calculates the net volume as 59.80 litres and with those two ports, the tuning is 60.06Hz. LaVoce is mauve line, the Faital is orange. Input power 180W. Both are very loud. See graphs for transfer function, power handling and cone excursion. Faital Pro 400 neo £179.

Gary recently bought my Spector tuners. Super smooth transaction with quick payment. BC marketplace at its best. Thumbs up!

Considered a cabsim with one of the louder cabs?

Keith rehomed my project bass for me, super easy, great comms, lovely chap, perfect transaction, thanks dude!

Bought some tuners from Thorsten. Great comms and fast delivery, cheers!

We did all of that; there are templates for most of it on line, and it all worked well for several years. There was no, or very little, cost involved. How do your local football or tennis clubs work..? It should be similar, I'd have thought.

Bought two sets of strap locks from @cd_david Sale went smoothly, wouldn't hesitate to do business again. Excellent communication at all stages and very fast posting.

>30 years as a Finance Director here, and I would advise very strongly against going this route unless you genuinely expect to be as successful as Taylor Swift. Technically speaking, any working band is automatically a Partnership under the 1890 Act but nobody gives a toss and I've never heard of anyone acting (i.e. sueing someone or trying to claim equal shares of band revenues) on that basis. Don't mean it ain't happened, mind. Open a 'band' bank account, however, and you open a number of doors. Very probably, no bug-eyed monsters will walk through those doors; but if the doors aren't there then there's no risk. Shared ownership of anything in band is a disaster waiting to happen. The bands I play in get paid variously through all sorts of channels ... cash, Concur, Opus, etc. Whichever person can be bothered to deal with it collects the money and then distributes it later, usually (but not necessarily) as cash. If you can't trust one of your bandmates to give you your £50 from playing the Dog & Duck last week, then you should probably reconsider who you play with. 🤨

Let's Get Rocked - no thanks Come On Eileen - hate it Sweet Child O Mine - so over-played I'm sure there's more...

I think you may be right about the MS-60B+ ! Compared to the B1-4: - the MS-60B+ has got 6 slots per patch (one more than the B1-4), 100 patch memories (vs 50 on the B1-4); better processor & upgraded sims, ability to send a split signal to PA (e.g. with cab sim) and to amp (e.g. with no cab sim), more compact form factor; - the B1-4 has drum machine, basic looper, headphone capability, aux in and ability to edit using PC compatible software - all features I make use of and would miss. On top of all that it's ridiculously good value.

Unfortunately, the UK's approach to the AML and KYC legislation (anti-money laundering and 'know your customer') has been to over react and make it draconian. You are unlikely to get a club/associations account without evidence of a governing document, designated officers, and an extract from committee minutes authorising the setting up of the bank account.
