[q [quote name='E sharp' timestamp='1408955620' post='2534788'] I've just listened to a massive build up for Killing in the Name , and they never got to even the 2nd verse , before stopping it . Waste of time [/quote] maybe its too politically sensitive at the moment you know how they are at the beeb

BASS like a saxomophone but cooler

[quote name='BILL POSTERS' timestamp='1408740538' post='2533192'] Its not just in London. That, and similar scams, like paying to use the rubbish house P.A have been going for years. [/quote] maybe that is why the (medway council run) Central Theatre has no decent billing to speak of these days

[quote name='Bassnut62' timestamp='1408946517' post='2534719'] I know that one of those guitarists isn't available for the Hammersmith shows, cos my mate Carlos is doing those gigs as dep. He's played for KB before too. Carlos is a killer guitarist. I haven't given his surname deliberately as I don't know if this is official news yet. [/quote] The band line up look seriously good doesnt it but alas i fear she will most likely not be playing small to medium size intimate venues at reasonable ticket prices so i will have to settle for the youtube version after the event edit - i think if i could afford a ticket i would probably go as much to see omar hakim and john giblin as Ms Bush herself

[quote name='watton_earth' timestamp='1408872751' post='2534157'] There's a guy at my gym who spends 5 full minutes doing pelvic thrusts as a warm up. Even though it may feel good, some things are not meant to be done in public. (I bet he thinks he's really good at it) [/quote]

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1408356670' post='2529223'] Us, in our rehearsal room, newly refurbished... We are The Daub'z. [/quote] are you sure? looks more like amon duul to me -
our band is 16 19 45(ish) 50 51 52 as they say ... DON'T GROW UP ... IT'S A TRAP!

nobody hearing a B natural then??

[quote name='EssentialTension' timestamp='1408353200' post='2529171'] I thought Bb too but I've been wrong before. Anyway playing the B just gives a different flavour. Your last phrase 6-5-6, I would play using open string 1-0-1 - if you see what I mean. [/quote] yes totally agree different flavour but both work dont they which just adds to confusion for silly old fools like me what puzzles me about the whole pitch perception thing is sometimes that deceptively simple things are the deal breakers for example the little twiddly runs in the bridge section of cee lo greens forget you i have no problem in hearing and picking out the notes but one single simple note in troublemaker has me stumped

haha thnaks for posting seems my ears need this app
-
actually i think i might have mistitled the thread its an ear/brain coordination thing surely ?
-
put this in here to avoid cloggin up the general forum my ears are having a moment in deciphering a note - i suspect many people experience this phenomenon where you can work out a whole phrase but there is always one note in the middle where you just cant hear and evaluate the pitch correctly currently bugging me at the moment as im just transcribing it as we are about to cover it in our set list is olly murs troublemaker i'll put it up in tab for now for simplicitiy chorus [size=4][font=lucida sans unicode,lucida grande,sans-serif]G-------------------------------------------------------------------[/font][/size] [size=4][font=lucida sans unicode,lucida grande,sans-serif]D-----1--3----------------------1--3--------------------------------[/font][/size] [size=4][font=lucida sans unicode,lucida grande,sans-serif]A---3-------------x--3-------3----------------5--6------------------[/font][/size] [size=4][font=lucida sans unicode,lucida grande,sans-serif]E--------------3----------------------------6------------------------[/font][/size] is X a B flat or B natural or does it change throughout? im hearing both
-
Oh blx go on then I'll give it a go
-
i always feign plenty of coughing and spluttering m obviously not the only one who cant stand them and i thinks the stuff smells absolutely vile thankfully ours doesnt get used so much now since our singist lost her voice mid gig on one occasion as a result of the aforementioned rogue machinery

[quote name='Cosmo Valdemar' timestamp='1407967595' post='2525961'] .....Turns out it had just been tuned comically high........ [/quote] makes a pleasant change from finding some folks out there tuning them comically low

There is a nice little gretsch single cutaway (ok ok les paul sort of shape ish) in the ME1 branch at the moment (presumably not very old and originally from Manny's Music just along the high street)

[quote name='Geek99' timestamp='1407989870' post='2526037'] Jamerson used a dirty, stock p bass. Go figure [/quote] so he picked a lucky one then

[quote name='Big_Stu' timestamp='1407931880' post='2525429'] Maplins used to have an extensive range of Neutrik jacks. [/quote] yes thanks - i will nip into one of their bigger local stores and then get the chisel out
-
Had forgotten this thread until recently when I went shopping to try and find a neutrik Whilst I had the back cover off having a dig around I noticed a way to make a mod to use an open style socket which only requires internal modification and will have no visible indications externally Will post some before and after pics soon after I've sharpened my chisel

[quote name='bonzodog' timestamp='1407773688' post='2523860'] Does anyone else get frustrated not being able to afford half decent gear? I play a Jhs vintage bass and whilst I like it I would prefer something a bit higher quality. My amp set up is just a mixture of second hand Hartke stuff off here or ebay. Last gig my amp head died so I am currently trawling the web looking for cheap second hand heads which I know is a false economy as they probably wont last five minutes. The gigs pay well but that usually gets spent on the kids. Think its made worse that the guitarist and drummer have no commitments so are always buying new gear. I would never expect them to chip in for my gear but cant help getting a bit down about it. I look at prices of decent gear and its like a different world to me. Anyone else feel the same?
