  1. [quote name='nickcarey' post='261088' date='Aug 12 2008, 07:08 PM']The neck has great sustain[/quote] You could go and have a bite and it would still be playing when you came back!
  2. Yeh, there are some great live videos on youtube from that period actually.
  3. [quote name='johnnylager' post='276125' date='Sep 3 2008, 11:22 AM'] Why thank you. Puerility at it's finest. We also do 'songs' about drugs, misogyny & serial killers.[/quote] Are you in The Premature Ejaculators?
  4. [quote name='themoo' post='275475' date='Sep 2 2008, 02:52 PM']Spot on Nick... I swapped the one below with André for #147 [/quote] That's my favorite on this thread.
  5. I think the perception of "bum notes" or deviations from a "perfect" rendition of a bassline is a little irrelevant. That quote should be used as advice for players, not for the audience. If you see a player deviating from a bassline, you will never know if he's doing it on purpose. The point is that as a player, you should be able to play a line before you deviate from it, otherwise you are just making a hash of a bassline, whether people think you're amazing for it or not.
  6. Pretty much common sense though isn't it? Everyone knows you need to be able to actually play a bassline before you can mess around with it.
  7. [quote name='thisnameistaken' post='275648' date='Sep 2 2008, 05:36 PM']I think Deeder only did the first two or three albums, then decided to pack music in and go do human rights work. Shame, although I feel a bit guilty saying that . His solo stuff isn't too hot either. I mean it's alright, but it's not ADF quality. Edit: No he definitely wasn't around in 2003, I think he left in 2000.[/quote] I think this is right, I don't really know the facts. His solo stuff is kind of shoddy reggae isn't it?
  8. Yeh they've have a few different vocalists since then, he left ages ago!
  9. They were amazing with deeder (SP?) as the frontman/rapper. It's a shame he left.
  10. take the back off, find the 4 solder points where the footswitches are attached, solder some long wire on, feed them out the batter case, close it back up. Then just make a board however you want, buy a couple of momentary footswitches from maplins, wire it up, (gordon ramsey voice) DONE!
  11. Fair enough, I suppose i'm very used to it. I used to gig with 23 pedals on my board. I had to change to thinner shoes so I could hit one and not the others! You could make a box to raise the pedal, have the two footswitches seperate (very easy) and further apart and away from the exp pedal? I would draw my idea in paint but it's just going to look stupid.
  12. [quote name='The Funk' post='275342' date='Sep 2 2008, 12:17 PM']Why, thank you! I've had it for 12 years now and wear it at every gig I play. Some people complain if I don't wear the shades with it but sometimes on a dark stage, I just don't want to risk it.[/quote] You don't need the shades, it's the hat that makes it.
  13. [quote name='The Funk' post='275285' date='Sep 2 2008, 11:13 AM']I may as well post one...[/quote] That is a fiendish hat!
  14. [quote name='Galilee' post='275331' date='Sep 2 2008, 12:01 PM']I always accidentally kick the damn pedal and turn my sound right off, so now I make sure it's not assigned at all.... In my own defence, I do sing lead vocal as well, so I can't focus too much attention on controlling effects.[/quote] Do you do it while you're trying to hit the footswitch? Anyway to turn on the tuner you have to press two footswitches as a time, and then the mute is useful obviously.
  15. It's great for muting when on the tuner as well.
  16. Ta for the PM, I replied and paid this morning. I'm off home now but if I could have some sort of confirmation that would be appreciated Of course the best confirmation would be the box coming in tomorrow's post!
  17. Wouldn't it be cool if Dr Das was on BC! He put some great basslines on ADF songs and really seemed to drive the whole band with his playing. Are you here?
  18. [quote name='bilbo230763' post='274499' date='Sep 1 2008, 01:44 PM']And what's worse is that, as a 10 year old, I liked Gary Glitter[/quote] I'm sure he would have liked you too!
  19. Try assigning the exp pedal to: Phaser/Flange/Trem speed Distortion gain Volume, with some delay on the patch to do some swells. It's fun!
  20. [quote name='umph' post='274349' date='Sep 1 2008, 11:47 AM']as apposed to raping peoples ears with high end fizzle? to me it just seems like you like bad tone i'm sorry but thats the impression i get.[/quote] Lol, really, I will try and contribute to the ODB-3 thread tonight - if I get time, it's a great pedal.
  21. Is it just me who loves playing on a hollow wooden stage? The vibratons go all the way up my legs and tickle my balls in a way that no other stage can accomplish.
  22. I've never bought a soundman a drink but all the sound guys in stoke seem to know me and we get on really well.
  23. I'm not going to be specific to protect myself, but I think I am guilty of making money from someone else's song. Less than £100 in total, and no air play. The actual writer and/or their manager wont reply to any correspondence so we just went ahead. We're not collecting any royalties from it so..... I fail to see how I am going to get screwed for it.
