you can't be guilty as charged ... you're only guilty on conviction but the basschat jury will be along soon to weigh up the evidence and give their verdict confess now to liking the beatles before it's too late

it wasnt empty there were plenty of people in there to saok up some of the sound but maybe not enough im guessing

putting this here as everybody seems to be putting anything and everything in GT or OT these days So, friday nights gig, dreadful sound and loads of squealing from the PA PA was up on stands as per usual, i put my 410 up on two low stools so it was up and isolated from the ground anybody have any practical tips on how to deal with playing in pubs with flagstone floors? ta muchly

[quote name='xilddx' timestamp='1372946119' post='2131974'] I know what you mean about the 'cool' aspect. I loved Van Halen's set of walls of fake speaker cabs. But the fact is, big amps onstage is only old school cool nowadays. I really don't think the audience give a sh*t about seeing stacks on stage unless it's a deliberate part of a set. [/quote] or if theyre disguised as friggin washing machines or something stoooopid im inclined to agree Nige for gigs with a big rig out front for multiband afternoons and decent monitoring the stage stuff is just cosmetic - we did a local gig recently - JTUK was there and said FOH sounded good - onstage monitoring was great in fact the stage monitoring was so good i could not actually hear my 410 at all so i was essentially using my head as a oversized DI box!

shouty student bands with beards and twiglet underwear who knew!

chocolate coated TRB anyone??

[quote name='gapiro' timestamp='1372849910' post='2130596'] Their acronym is M+S.... quite apt I feel [/quote] you buy your underwear from nu-folk bands then?

but you PROMISED red seedless disappointed

Nige a huge part of it is all about pattern recognition especially reading the dots on the lines (IMHO) check out this little app - very interactive and useful for reading/recognising/learning notation and syncopation [url="https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/rhythm-sight-reading-trainer/id396302174"]https://itunes.apple...ner/id396302174[/url] notreble have a good apps section - this one looks great for the more advanced harmony stuff [url="http://www.notreble.com/buzz/2013/03/04/mapping-tonal-harmony-pro-a-look-at-the-harmony-app-for-ios-and-android/"]http://www.notreble....os-and-android/[/url] [url="http://youtu.be/LLJeHenKdlw"]http://youtu.be/LLJeHenKdlw[/url]

ALRIGHT NOW soooo many people play what they think they remember and if you fancy a wee groove then try Nick Lowe 'Sound of Breaking Glass'

should be fab - spoilt for good tunes with the 80s - difficult to know what to leave out!!

[quote name='xilddx' timestamp='1372774309' post='2129762'] I have completed my statistical analysis, and 67% of BC members making more than 3.1 posts per week think everything's crap if it's sold more than 162 records, and isn't Jaco Pastorius or someone with no arms playing a guitar with their feet.
