  4. And again Royal mail have failed to deliver, didn't even leave a card, the website says they tried to deliver this morning but no card, no knock at the door (have been in all day), someone's telling porkies. 

     

    Just wanted a cheap harness to try out series/parallel but at this rate I might just end up hard wiring the bass in series

      Can we please remember that it is Royal Mail who deliver letters/parcels and not The Post Office, please. Delivery of mail is nothing to do with The Post Office.

  5. People are weird.
    I just replied to a 'bassist wanted' ad on fb that just said a date and location, message me if interested, with no fee, genre etc listed, and the person replied saying 'blocking you because you're asking too many questions' and blocked me. 
    Like...my interest level depends on the answer to those questions

  6. Audition tomorrow! Might be playing some country very soon :) 

  7. One of my students has an awesome sounding Jazz bass. I don't actually own a Jazz bass. Now I need a Jazz bass.

     

    If psychologists want to come and study terminal G.A.S, you know where I am... lol

      They are very nice basses, as said the neck is more of a handful than a usual Jazz, which is nice imo.

  8. 3 gigs for us in 'that London' in the next month. First since the week before March 2020 lockdown. Wooo!

  9. Moving to Warwick at the end of the month for a new job... and oh dear... Bass Direct is only 3 miles away from my new front door... hiding my wallet now!

      Tell payroll to send your money there each month, Mark can then just hand you over what`s left on the last working day.

  10. What a fine howdy do. I'm signed off for 2 weeks with Labyrinthitis,  middle son tested positive for Covid this morning,  wife still feeling after effects of covid 3 months on.

     

    What a crappy day.

      Not good, re the labyrinthitis if the doc hasn`t prescribed anything sea-sickness tablets stop the "I`m falling" feeling.

  11. 32yrs ago was my debut live show. Time flies! 

  12. Radio 2 really is the perfect early morning listening...

    ...'cos if there's one thing guaranteed to get me up and at 'em, out of bed and away from the alarm, it's Zoe fecking Ball's vacuous yakking and her incessant, relentless bloody Strictly fixation.

    SHUT. UP.

  13. Things you get told on Facebook groups:

    Apparently, saying that I wouldn't shed any tears if a pair of child torturers/murderers got the sht kicked out of them in prison actually makes me a worse person than the two killers themselves.

    Blimey. All this time I thought I was a bit of a bleeding-heart pinko lib, but it seems I'm an absolute rank amateur.

      I think Daz hit the nail on the head, reform wherever possible has to be the aim, but sometimes society just needs a break from some types - as famously put to Messrs Kray a few years back.

      Would we shed any tears though, that`s the question?

  15. I've just purchased a Markbass Little Mark Tube and I'm too exciting about it 😁

  16. Yesterday I bought a Nepalese winter woolly hat. It has dreadlocks. This has pleased me immensely.

  17. Isn’t it crazy that nobody during WW2 had ever heard electric slap bass?

  18. Just had a wee server hiccup at BC central, nothing to worry about.  A severe thrashing from Ped saw the IT gnomes working to the brink exhaustion to restore service as quickly as inhumanely possible.  All hail the IT gnomes for their tireless devotion to our cause.  

  19. Getting nervous about this fuel shortage/non-shortage. Whole band is supposed to be driving up to Scotland from London on Friday, returning Monday and really don't fancy running out halfway there...

      It took me 10 minutes to park my car yesterday as the 500+metre queue blocked access to the parking for where I live. Coupled with the vehicles overtaking and forcing others onto the pavement/pedestrians off of the pavement onto grass verges and the 2 accidents I saw in said 10mins I`d venture closer to panic than a state of calm.

      With any luck those that have panicked beyond belief will be unable to fit any more fuel into their cars now so by the end of the week some form of normality might be restored.

  23. Good lord, how expensive are Mim Fenders now!! Nearly £700 for an Mim p bass!! I remember when you could get one for £300ish new

      Yep, in the last 10 years or so prices have increased a lot. In 2009 I bought my first US Precision 2nd hand in a  music shop for £500.

  24. Joined 11 years ago today....I had three basses back then. A 4 string, a 5 string and an acoustic...probably owned 50+ basses since.

    You people have been a bad influence on me...😉😉

      Same sort of story here Mick, had only owned a few basses til Basschat, now I think I`ve owned them all!
