Why not keep the current band going for now and also join the originals band you mentioned. They should be different enough so as not to tread on each others toes.

Can't seem to upload pictures but for me it's actually one that was mentioned in the ugliest bass thread. John Entwistles' Alembic Baby Brown is the bass I covert most. To me, proportion wise it's just perfect. I'ma short-*rse so a fan of short-scales.

Tuner - line mixer - chorus - drive - delay most of the time i use a clean signal and occasionaly use the above in a variety of combinations. Could probably ditch the drive. Very occasionaly use a synth pedal with an expression pedal but that's only if the keys player can't make it.

had another go with the green mile and had a bit more success. it may still find a permanent home on my board.

CHEWN! good work mate.

I'm stuffed on both fronts then.

the only christmas song i'll stop and listen to.

I did get thrown out of Heaven in Charring Cross once.

my bro' got me a nice new wall-hanger.

undecided about the green mile. will have to experiment a bit more to see if it will work for me.

first outing for sub machine at the grosvenor in stockwell last night. got a decent, appreciative crowd down which always helps. the sound guy was on top of things and showed us in our best light. all in all a success, may even do it again.

I have to say I've been following this thread and am a little surprised by the hostility shown to the OP. We all need to get things off our chest at times. I know I've done it here recently and all I got was messages of support which helped me get things in perspective. Give the guy a break.

shall be giving the green mile a try-out tonight. I'll let you know how I get on.

got the picture upload sorted

all the time. didn't realised I did it 'til at a rave, lost in the music a mate came up and said "nice air bass man". i would post a vid of alan partridge playing air-bass but youtube seems to be acting up for me at the moment. ah, there you go chaypup

in every pack

Ok, tried out the ensemble king last night. have to say I was quite impressed. Seems to respond better in the mid to top range of notes but for what I was after, a simple no fuss chorus, it seems ideal. haven't checked out the green mile yet but will post when I do.

a beautiful genius. RIP

Jamming with the lads on Friday evening suddenly things took a very Quo-like turn. I was digging it but wondered if anyone else was picking up on it. I assumed that they hadn't as I was sure certain members would have called a halt. Turned out they all picked up on the vibe (apart from the 22 year old keys player) and were equally into it. It still works.

[quote name='hollywoodrox' timestamp='1355237867' post='1895772'] Any votes for Brian cox as a replacement ( not that he can be replaced but you know what I mean) [/quote] I don't think he's eccentric enough or even has a strong personality. Did someone mention Wilco Johnson earlier? Now that would be excellent! As long as it's not Brian May!
