ahpook

I think he's got you there

On fire today, sir. On fire.

An attack of 'Sick Of Loadsa Instruments Dilemma' if I ever saw one. SOLID - the opposite of GAS

Double flat ? That's a maisonette isn't it ?

Sounds like a blast ! I think I'd quite like to be your neighbour

That would be a great way of broadening your playlist - take oldies requests from the neighbours I like the way you frame it btw - 'The Lunchtime Recital'...brilliant ! What's on the playlist at the mo ?

Sounds like tough times for you Andy. Stay strong buddy.

I watched the start and the first few hours with my sister and then we got a bit bored and drifted away. I think we tuned in now and again during the day and evening as well. We enjoyed we saw iirc, but it was very clear early on that Queen were never going to be bettered.

I hope whatever it is isn't too serious. I can see how things can be put into perspective very quickly by health worries. .

I'm nowhere near as interested than I was. At home I usually have the radio on (usually something non-English language as I can't bear the chatter) but it's largely a bit of company. I used to get up in the morning and put music on all day to listen to, not now. Mind you, I was a librarian for quite a while - I may have just got used to, and enjoy, silence (or as much as Tottenham will allow) more than I did. I can quite happily do a 3 or 4 hour soldering session, in front of a PC, with access to any music I like...and do it it total silence, and it not even occur to me to put music on. 😦

Double post, again.

No real news from the 'band' I'm 'in'. There's still some talk about finding a drummer, but having joinedthis a year ago and got nowhere outside a practice room, I can't see it going anywhere. I've had the odd noodle on a bass over the last week, just learning some Roxy Music songs for my own amusement...but I still feel less and less like I'm a, I dunno, 'proper'* bass player as time goes by. It really is quite dispiriting *Whilst admitting that I'm not sure what that means.

...and looks nothing like a spider. 'Galaxian' bass maybe....

Cool. Glad you managed to way to got it to work for you 👍

Do like a bit of Pram👍

Like in Logan's Run...a musical 'Last Day' :) "Carousel...begins....."

Doouble post

Just the pathetic kind of overblown spectacle that passes for entertainment these days... ...but moving onto the graphics...

As long as you're fairly sure

I have a Facebook account I never look at. It's under a silly pseudonym, none of my family or friends know about it and all the notifications are automatically marked as read. Sometimes I think I'm missing the point

I think it's quite groovy

It's alright Grandad, the bowls is on soon.

Great song, quintessential bass, but the video.... 1:52. Oi ! Ray !!!

If it's a picking speed thing, then slowing the song down and going over it again and again and again is the only thing that's really worked for me. You need to train those muscles - stick with your usual plectrum and just keep at it. Sorry, boring answer.

OK, I loaded a load of fairly nonsensical keywords and prompts into https://www.song-lyrics-generator.org.uk/ ...and with a couple of tweaks came up with what could almost pass as a Pavement song Summer Dental Conference (No Monster Trucks) "We're all going to a summer dental conference No more begging for a week or two Guitars and stack shoes at our summer dental conference No more monster trucks for me or you For a week or two Summertime, and the givin' is open Sisters are lying and the are wagers are high Oh, your king's Belgian and your serf is driving So hush my parched bozo, don't you cry Oh the summer of 2543 I can't wait to do some lying with you You can't wait to do some lying with me This just can't be summer love, you'll see This just can't be summer love (Solo) Summertime, and the givin' is open Sisters are lying and the are wagers are high Oh, your king's Belgian and your serf is driving So hush my parched bozo, don't you cry (Spoken Word over breakdown/build-up) Me and some monster trucks from Southampton Had a band and we tried real hard. Kent quit, Jo went inventing I should've known we'd never end up emigrating Oh the summer of 2543 Summer lying had me a blast, oh yeah Summer lying happened so fast, Summer dental conference drifting away, To, uh oh, that summer dental conference"
