[quote name='TimR' timestamp='1419458943' post='2640287'] Sorry. I can't see anywhere that it says you'll have to pay. [/quote] it dfoesnt actively say but if you run a group page you will have already noticed for some time now that you cannot promote news feeds 'fully' without paying to 'reach a wider audience' there was a time having a band page was quite handy to promote gigs to all you followers/likers but now they are increasingly restricting that ability - the inevitable conclusion will be that such services will eventually be 'premium' account holders only

anyways ... why not use a band name thats already out there? as long as they are not too geographically close shouldnt be a problem (there are at least five or six of our band name around the country we had a quick squint at their interwebs and reckon we shouldnt collide with them at all) edit - you could use the same name but then use a domain name for website that incorporated your band name and your area to try and eliminate any possible confusion

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1419521010' post='2640632'] Yes I DO know that and I would have put one over the 'i' but it wasn't available in that font. Thhpp!! [/quote] [b][size=5]Ťhhhhïïïïïïïïïïïïïïääääääääääärrrrrrrrrrrþþþþþþþþþþþþþþþþþþþþþ[/size][/b]

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1419463725' post='2640340'] Shame it's not a metal band, then you could be called Road Kill. It would have to be like this, obviously: Yes, I'm bored. Where's Santa got to?? Edit: And it's been taken... about five or six times! [/quote] Tsk tsk tsk Any fule kno that metal names must contain at least one umlaut

[quote name='No lust in Jazz' timestamp='1419506457' post='2640473'] Suffice to say that our version of Beck's Sexx Laws, monumental as it was, didn't do it for the audience.

[quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1419454607' post='2640218'] I wouldn't have picked Duran but as a compromise that is the one song that I quite like... [/quote] no the song about the river? i hope its planet earth ... much more fun to play

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1419451382' post='2640186'] I like a jumble up as long as they are good songs so do most people, its OK doing a great Motown* set in a Motown* venue or justa few Motown* songs in a set but try it at a party and 90% of the room will hate Motown* *insert genre of choice here. [/quote] i would beg to differ there old chap - we always get a really good response from the motown stuff we do and not just from the old 'uns who are old enough to remember it first time around

[quote name='gafbass02' timestamp='1419504181' post='2640451'] Hahhah. It's a full on rock version [/quote] that reminds me - weve been asked to do a wedding in january and they have a couple of requests - one of which is possibly the most aweful cringeworthy song ever written arranged and recorded - so we are going to do a slightly more upbeat kicking 'p!nk' style version of it

oh bejeezus its on the radio right now

[quote name='gafbass02' timestamp='1419502455' post='2640429'] ... Let it go: 'Frozen' soundtrack. and MANY others.... [/quote] it was all going so well.... right up until the very last track

we played a 50th birthday party last night at local pub for a lady with pink hair dressed as a mermaid shame i didnt realise until packing my gear down that my 115 cab had come unplugged and was only the 410 working all night
-
[quote name='NancyJohnson' timestamp='1417957904' post='2625395'] The 410 however, pretty much handles whatever you want to throw at it and is an affordable, good all round enclosure. Adding the 115 just phattens out the tone. [/quote] +1 i use a vx115 with my 410 at the moment until i can afford the hydrive 115 - doesnt add much at all in the way of definition or clarity but it does give that extra bit of air moving right down the very low end (as well as sucking the full remaining power out of the head running it at 4 ohm instead of 8ohm with just the 410)

Things you should be able to play but can not.

[quote name='thepurpleblob' timestamp='1418548090' post='2630983'] The triplets in "Roadhouse Blues". The worst thing is that there's a youtube video (the "how to play bass" guy) who describes it as "beginner" level! B*****d I really struggle with a lot of funk style stuff. Although I can nail the notes, the feel is real struggle and I'm at a bit of a loss for how to fix it. Just not in me I suppose. [/quote] you mean this one? shame if it's so easy that the triplets aren't quite 'even' [media]http://youtu.be/uqOZyTNSO-w[/media] -
Had one for two years and very pleased with it - has a 3 way switch - off 1 2 - for the compression driver which is very bright - plenty of low end drive and mid punch - cab isn't light but what 410 is? But it is about as compact as you could make a 410 - the tolex covering is not the tuffest so will start showing scuff marks unless you use covers for transport - if you find a good used one at good price if say they are the best bang for your buck in that range
