    [quote name='pfretrock' timestamp='1430467680' post='2761613'] Microsoft users: The much hated Internet Explorer is being killed off in Windows 10, to be replaced by a browser called Microsoft Edge. It is currently being beta tested by members of the much loved U2. You read it here first. [/quote] I suppose it gives them something to do while Bonio's hand is poorly.

    "Extremely rare"... and that's "rare" as in the opposite of "well done".

    [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1430246334' post='2759512'] I'm stealing that to use as a euphemism. [/quote] It's 12 o'clock, so I'm off to paint the pilchard...

    [quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1430317309' post='2760218'] Eric Carmen and Dolores O'Riorden both admit to being "thrown" when they first met Chuck Berry. [/quote] And several people are still missing their hats after that gig in Paris...

    [quote name='rungles' timestamp='1427994335' post='2736878'] I just need Roqsolid to start making covers for them now... [/quote] Send them the dimensions and they will! And it's a lovely looking stack you've got there.

    [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1430304452' post='2759989'] They're already at home, aren't they..? [/quote] In my world they're standing on a stage, racked with anxiety, terrified of finding out whether their dreams will be realised or shattered by the click of my mouse....

    [quote name='Bassassin' timestamp='1430259864' post='2759695'] Might go for a single volume & pickup pan pot - I've never seen the point of a 3-way selector switch on a bass. [/quote] I'm not a fan of more than one volume control, so I've also pondered this, but I don't think I've seen a pan-pot on a passive bass... is there some reason to do with buffering and/or other clever electric stuff for that?

    That scratchplate would probably provide some handy protection if you had a gig in Chernobyl.

    Reminds me of mentioning playing instrumental stuff and someone said, "No singer? You mean, just [i][b]music[/b][/i]?!?"
