Why don't bands like GnR just smash out all the hits? That's ten minutes of pointless jam night noodling followed by something we've never heard before. If it's not your gig just play your hits. For a master class see Queen at live aid.

It's when the earth is bad coming from the supply, bad extension lead or the socket feeding it.

He's actually sounding a bit better on this longer footage, poor lad clearly needs a good rest.

Bit of a grumpy teenager, nicotine stained teeth and chewing gum like her old man though.

Lewis Capaldi, wouldn't even have him in my pub band. New Foof drummer is pretty good.

Geezer Butler on Loose Ends (Radio 4)
stingrayPete1977 replied to StingRayBoy42's topic in General Discussion
My dad used to do electrical work for Geezer, one day they were putting up garden lights and him and his Mrs were having a right barney outside about him buying another car ,a Ferrari maybe but my dad knows nothing about cars but something along those lines. He went off in a mood and she came out later with the tea and biscuits, she apologised about the language and ruckus and explained that she wasn't bothered about him buying another car, it's his money but he kept buying them then he'd get bored and leave them all over the place, look there's a Maserati in there, and a Porsche over there and so on, she was only bothered because he was littering the place with exotic cars. Nice bloke though apparently. -
I had some Rotosounds bought online, they sounded terrible, felt horrible and lost what top end they had after one gig, definitely genuine 😜

Is a new mass-produced bass ever worth more than £1500
stingrayPete1977 replied to Beedster's topic in General Discussion
There was a lot of stigma regarding the working conditions a few years ago but I've not heard much lately, it's that still a thing? -

And it's tax deductible. -

stingrayPete1977 replied to Beedster's topic in General Discussion
I'm not sure how many employees Musicman have in San Luis but the factory isn't massive, I had two laps of the building before anyone started to give us funny looks so we left. I imagine the Fender sites are much more like what you think of when thinking of mass produced items. I'm not sure I'd spend £3000+ on any bass tbh, I'm glad I've already got a couple that'll see me out. -
I've got an name in my head that fits the logo I think, could it be Rockstar? R and a Star if you turn it 90 degrees.

Rickenbacker=Harley Davidson. Discuss.
stingrayPete1977 replied to mowf's topic in General Discussion
In some ways Harley have been more like Fender, massive debts and propped up by government money, buy up other brands that are doing well and could seriously diversify their product range and possibly finally turn a profit only to close the brand down for no good reason. Genz-Benz vs Buell. -
Most covers bands that do the "let's play what we want and all choose our favourite songs rather than doing sex on fire, it's our band not my band" never get out of the rehearsal studio, I've been in many of them. I like a band leader but they've got to be open minded to everyone's suggestions, I've been in bands where we had a band leader but they wanted to play obscure B sides that no one else knows or really likes. Again they never did a gig.

Are Rickenbacker $4.8B in debt like HD? -
Bassists who don't play their own signature basses
stingrayPete1977 replied to Beedster's topic in General Discussion
I've never understood why Flea doesn't use the same basses live as he does in the studio? Wal and Stingray 5. -
Whilst we're at it regarding Mancunians that can't sing can someone tell Liam Gallagher that lyrics don't have to rhyme please?

I'm sure it was.

Kendrick Lamar, I'm sure it's great if you like watching people perform to a backing track but that's bath and bed for me. Night all.
-
Hhmmm, not really doing it for me even if he is using the same bass as me!
-
It's dreadful!

I think they must be sending her fold back to her in a different key?!

This is worth watching for the entertainment value!
