I think it’s next weekend that may be more of an issue. I have one on Saturday 17/9 and have asked the band leader to contact the venue. No response as of yet.

Love that album, but for me, it still falls short in the immense shadow of BSSM.

When I read the thread title, ‘Tonight’ came to mind immediately. In fact, I did an interview on radio a couple of years ago, when ChangesTwoBowie was still a going concern, defending the album. The problem is that it’s up against some really stiff competition from the rest of Bowie’s oeuvre. As much as I like it, would I say it’s his best work? I don’t think I can, but it’s definitely nowhere near as bad as some would have us believe.

At the rate they shift basses, they may well not be there by then, but you’re doing the right thing by not diving in unless you’re sure. I’m a firm believer in that the right bass will come along at the right time given patience. I hope you find what you’re looking for.

Never been there, but I’ve admired their small selection of Fender CS basses online over the years. They always seem to have some really nice examples. I guess they must spec them to their desire knowing they’ll sell eventually. Nice to know they’re good guys 👍

Much like the Alembic SC then 😎

I think my vote tipped things back to evens - sorry 🤣

'57 all day long. I don't like the pattern on the headstock of the '62.

@NikNik - does the neck have inlays?

Admittedly my experience was UK to USA, but it was anything but easy. If it wasn’t for the manufacturer stepping in (Alembic) we’d never have got it sorted.

Having had a recent nightmare experience with UPS in the thread below, I’ll guess this is almost certainly to do with commodity codes i.e. lack of information provided by the seller as to what the neck is made of. UPS don’t make it easy letting you know what is required prior to shipping. I hope you get it sorted. https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/460929-a-tale-of-international-shipping/

That is a MASSIVE improvement over the first link. Thanks for posting it. I found the first download to be glitchy, especially during the Pretenders set. Just watched the 1080p one and it is perfect.

Just re-watched the Jeff Buckley section. I can't imagine there were too many people with their hands in the air when DG asked who wants to sing 'Grace'. Well done Violet 👏

Ha ha. I decided not to skip forward. I’m up to the Jeff Buckley covers so far. I know what I’ll be doing this evening.

Agreed, it's not as good a quality as broadcast, but you know what - I'll take it! Torrented and now safely stored on a memory stick. Thanks for posting @cheddatom 🤘

Anyone know of the whole gig video has popped up anywhere yet? From what I’d seen, it’s supposed to on Pluto TV as of today, but I can’t find it on there. Someone mentioned it might be on Paramount+, which I don’t need or want, but I might get for a month if it’s on there.

What a night!

Had a bit of a discussion about that on the way out of the Stadium. I think it worked the way he did it. If it it had finished on My Hero I think there might have been an expectation for encores, but ending with the solo version of Everlong, it was quite clear that the gig was done.

Full set list here…. https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/foo-fighters/2022/wembley-stadium-london-england-3b0a5bb.html

Looks like that's just an hour slot, probably highlights?

I don’t want to watch 100 sh!tty mobile phone clips though 😎

Just got home from the gig. That was a long day!

Do you mean every album apart from RobotHive/Exodus, or every album and Robot Hive/Exodus is the best of them? I have a real soft spot for that album and this track especially. I was going to post something about Clutch yesterday, but then got distracted and forgot. As good an album as Earth Rocker is, I do wonder how many die hard Clutch fans would put it at the top? Even more so for Psychic Warfare, although ‘Our Lady of Electric Light’ is probably my favourite song across both albums. I do agree though, Earth Rocker is all killer, no filler. My favourite Clutch album is Blast Tyrant, but I’m not sure it’s complete enough across the board to fit this thread. Looking forward to the new album - not long to wait now 🤟

Just thought of another one....

I'm sure I'll think of a few more, but this immediately sprang to mind....
