From Wikipedia: The band name Wet Wet Wet was chosen from a line in the 1982 Scritti Polliti song "Gettin' Havin' & Holdin'" ("it's tired of joking... wet, wet with tears"). They added another Wet to get away from the other double-barrelled names around then (Duran Duran, Talk Talk, etc) and also because Wet Wet is an even worse band name than Wet Wet Wet.

Yes. And don't call me Shirley.

Radiohead - named after a Talking Heads song.

And a MUSIC STAND!!! Burn it! Burn it NOW!!! 😁

Ship of Fools seems to be another popular song name - The Doors, John Cale, Robert Plant and others.

Blue Monday - Fats Domino Blue Monday - New Order

Ace of Wands. Written and performed by long-time Quo alumni Andy Bown.

I was a Christmas temp at the 360 Oxford Street shop nearly 20 (blimey, I feel old) years ago.

60s band Marmalade (of Ob-La-Di Ob-Le-Da fame) featured two bassists in the line up for a time - a four string and six string.

I think The Cure sometimes have two basses going in some of their songs - a regular four string and a Fender VI.

BB King and "Lucille".

Personally, I'd sell the majority of your gear. It has some sentimental value but, at the end of the day, it's just stuff. The happy times they will buy with your kids will be worth more than money. Keep one bass, flog the amps and other gubbins and buy a wee practice amp off here. That way you can have a little noodle around if the mood takes you. One thing I'll say above all else - please don't stop posting here just because you're not as musically active as you were. You're a valued poster and I'm sure many of us would miss you. We've lost too many good guys recently - don't be a stranger!

Not music related but I've always loved the story of the stand up comedian who started his act with the line, "Hello, I'm schizophrenic." A voice in the audience calls out, "Well, you can both f**k off, then!"

Saw him live back in 2002. Great gig.

Two for me. AC/DC Live at Donington 1991 and Sex Pistols Finsbury Park 1996 which, as Lozz mentioned upthread, became the Filthy Lucre album.

I prefer using my fingers. OK, I'll get me coat...

Love that Ampeg bass.

That's nothing compared to the time "The Boy" looked at him.

Elvis Costello and Bruce Thomas have fallen out pretty badly it seems. From Wikipedia... Bruce Thomas made a brief appearance with his former bandmates when the group was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2003, but when Costello was asked why Thomas did not play with them at the event, he reportedly replied, "I only work with professional musicians."[

"President Trump has invited you to play the half-time show at the Superbowl, your Supremity."

I've never heard it called a "Jazz Bass" before.

Lightweight Trace Elliot combo

Colin Moulding of XTC. Jah Wobble and Peter Hook were bass players only at first but then sang with their own projects (Invaders of the Heart, Revenge, Monaco, etc) Blues songwriting legend Willie Dixon was also a bassist and singer (and guitarist but we won't hold that against him).
