When Going For The One came out, with punk in full flight, the title track was bursting with energy, yelling "we're still here!". This, however, was..... meh. Edit: this, as mentioned earlier, is more like it! [media]http://youtu.be/yE1pnDERWU0[/media]

[quote name='AndyTravis' timestamp='1434192484' post='2797467'] Love the fact that a few weeks ago I had 'no use' and then I needed four 😂 [/quote] It took a few weeks to find a couple of knobless Yammies, then? ;-)

[quote name='AndyTravis' timestamp='1432555951' post='2782575'] I really like them! I have no use for them whatsoever [/quote] I love these too!

Hi Guys, I'd like to stop my machine (Win 8.1) from doing stuff like running virus scans and downloading updates. Would this be as simple as suspending the networking and AV services? From a quick search, it looks like I could write an "airplane mode" script using a series of [font=courier new,courier,monospace]sc [/font]commands.... any thoughts? (I'm a dab hand at *nix scripting but am purely a user when it comes to Windows.)

I feel cheated. From the thread title, I was expecting something more.... sapphic.

[quote name='Bilbo' timestamp='1434017981' post='2795922'] Mike is a monster. He has played with Billy Cobham, Trilok Gurtu, John McLaughlin, Django Bates, Iain Ballamy and many more. His own trio with his brother, called MGM until they were threatened with litigation, were interesting (I saw them supporting Bill Bruford's Earthworks in the 1990s). And a nice guy to talk to also, very approachable. [/quote] And Annette Peacock!

Fresh towels and plenty of hot water.

[quote name='Skybone' timestamp='1433938722' post='2795239'] TBH, I haven't read the whole thread, but surely you mean "All HAIL Chris Wolstenholme" not "HALE", as in to cheer or salute him, instead of him being free from infirmity or illness... ? There's always one pedant eh? [/quote] If you had read the whole thread, you would have discovered that there's always more than one pedant!

Ah, memories... my parents buying their first radiogram (stereogram?) and borrowing LPs from the the neighbours to play on it. Red Polydor label...

Some interesting thoughts on the role of BBC Radio here: http://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2015/jun/09/radio-1-apple-attack-nick-grimshaw-zane-lowe-spotify

Have you asked this guy? [media]http://youtu.be/ezO-qXZ2pYE[/media]

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1433859277' post='2794608'] Maybe, but I wouldn't bank on it. [/quote] I might have once, but now I've lost interest.

[quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1433857995' post='2794590'] Good job it was not RBS as they got nearly Busted. [/quote] As RBS are/were Scottish, would that be McBusted?

[quote name='Annoying Twit' timestamp='1433841970' post='2794383'] Not been [b]auto-[/b]rejected. Previously he'd set a limit so that all small offers were automatically rejected by the system without him seeing the offer. Now it seems that this is not happening, and he'll see all the offers. If he does accept my bid, then my use for the 'bass' would be as a booby raffle prize for the next Midlands Bass Bash. Last I heard, he was expecting in the very high hundreds or over a thousand for this ... thing. [/quote] Phew! I like the idea of the raffle... I can imagine this turning into some sort of alternative bass relay: you're [b]it[/b]!

Yep, the BBC has a duty to cover as much of the spectrum as it can. Scarily, the new "Culture" secretary is a sworn enemy of the BBC :-(

[quote name='Annoying Twit' timestamp='1433829261' post='2794244'] Price now reduced to 'only' £50,000.

[/quote] [b]Not[/b] been rejected? So you soon could be the proud new owner of this, er, this... this fine piece of the art of the luthier?

[quote name='RandomBass' timestamp='1433756935' post='2793580'] Does asking myself out loud on here count? [/quote] Don't ask me....

This is all electric. I think one of them has an octave divider :-(
