I have a Laney DP150 Combo you could borrow if you were desperate. It's massive and it weighs a tonne but if you need it, drop me a PM!

Don't make me move to Devon...!

I can't read music and I manage fine. It is something I want to do in the future though.

Great, tasteful playing

I would LOVE to be in a band like this Too far away though. Goddamnit.

[quote name='ogrimark' post='1001717' date='Oct 26 2010, 08:54 PM'] I would be the chunky one on the right. but then that might be obvious to those with a keen eye [/quote] I often get those kind of looks from the guitar player..

14 hours and no welcomes? What's this forum coming to. Welcome mate, hope you enjoy the forum

[quote name='steve-soar' post='1001531' date='Oct 26 2010, 06:52 PM']Nice to see a rock band look like they mean business and not look like some f***ing queggs from a Toni And Guy salon.[/quote] Hahah cheers mate, those types get right on my nerves, but unfortunately that's what sells at the moment.

Rob Trujillo!? ON THIS FORUM?! Oh wait.. Congratulations mate *edit* Just had a look at your youtube videos, awesome control. Wish I could play like that!

I can't play with a pick, I've always played with my fingers. I can play fast now (the band rolls their eyes at me if I can't keep up!) but as the others have said it's just practice.

Bienvenue! Your english is just fine, don't worry. Enjoy the forum.

Like there's one which is locked to an amp on wheels!

But if you're in or around the Manchester area and looking to be in a heavy rock/metal band then please [u]avoid[/u] Hell to Pay: [url="http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#!/pages/Hell-To-Pay/82649564414"]http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#!/pa...Pay/82649564414[/url] They're looking for a bass player, have been for a few months now and with good reason...[/quote] Spill the beans dude! I saw your comment on their page. Their slogan alone puts me off, as does the guy with the straightened hair. What's wrong with them?

+1 for Maiden.

[quote name='j2112c' post='997333' date='Oct 22 2010, 05:36 PM']Now THAT is the reaction I am getting from everybody. There is a club in the South West that saw my ad for a bassist and said... we are a club not a player... but when you get a full line up send me a link to your MySpace. That was two months ago... this week they called me and said can we book you now! I am in Aberdare can practice in Ponty or Myrthr... where abouts are you? Don't tell me... Glasgow!! Oh close... Oxford! Typical huh!?[/quote] Damn, maybe one day! If you get the band off the ground and come to Oxford to play, send me a PM and I'll come see you!

[quote name='j2112c' post='997310' date='Oct 22 2010, 05:19 PM']You know Lem... I very nearly posted a reply to your advert seeking a band as I want to start up the UK's only Dio Tribute band.. I have had a lot of interest from clubs that want to book up a Dio act and I know 12 songs fully from a set list of 18 songs I set out (I play mean guitar!) I have a drummer the will come on board but only when it is all set up (he is thinking money) - and I have a few vocalists in mind... one was in Merthyr. So ho hum, if you fancy fighting the good fight with some Old Skool 1980's metal then offer is there mate. [/quote] Oh damn! I would LOVE to play in a Dio tribute act!
