Assuming it's even wired up and moving air, makes you wonder whether Chris Shiflett can actually hear a single note being produced by it.
If they ARE then he won't be hearing it for long!

Dep gig for a 50th do at a (fairly) local rugby club. Loud but not as lively as I would have expected. Good giggle with a good bunch of lads who have fun when they play.

I've always had a soft spot for the Black Crowes version of "Rainy Day Women #12 & 35". Let's face it, if anyone could deliver the lyric "everybody must get stoned" then it's those chaps.

As above. I’d start with the checking and possibly replacing the electrolytic caps, they have a short shelf life (about a decade!) compared to most other components .

Saturday Night by Whigfield is a firm favourite of mine.

When I get that that stage I'll stop going to gigs.
WAAAAYYYY ahead of you there!

Oc2 ->coloursound bass fuzz -> Lovetone meatball -> Butler tube drive -> EHX Small clone and Small stone.
That’s pretty much my current ‘meat and potatoes’ layout., but currently it’s got a couple of other bits thrown in just for fun.
Being able to build effects pedals has its advantages!

I find it surprising that after 40 years of manufacturing, still 90% of people can't spell "Squier". Is it really that hard?
Based on those numbers, yes. 😄

Prince was a musical genius.
It’s a term that gets thrown around a lot, especially when someone dies, but Prince definitely was.

Bring down the birds - herbie Hancock
chameleon - herbie Hancock
are two that I’d consider essential.

We had nobody dancing. Sound on stage was awful and I know Jenny and Rory couldn't hear any bass.

It sucks when you have a frustrating night like that, I hope you get a better experience next time around.

Pretty good. Played at an open mic/Jam night as part of the house band. Busked my way through a good few songs that I've not played before, but with musicians that I knew, so it wasn't as bad as it could have been.
Didn't take an amp, so was reliant on the house PA; I reckon next time I'll take a feed from the mixer into a set of IEMs.

On second thoughts - over 450 solder joints. I've got a better chance of being the next man to set foot on the Moon than make 450 faultless solder joints.
It's not as bad as you think - get the right solder (rosin core) and a clean iron set to the right temperature and once you've got one done the ret should follow suit.

I thought I didn’t care what my instruments look like until I realise my main two are almost identical, so I think I have a type. Condition is less important to me than how it plays and feels. All of my kit is old and battered but I know it quite literally inside out and know exactly how it will respond to my sausage fingers, so it has that going for it.

Bands whose live albums trounce their studio efforts
in General Discussion

Iron Maiden’s Live After Death is easily better than most of the studio albums leading up to it. YMMV.
