    I am a huge fan of their first album, loads of great funky pop tracks, The second album was pretty good and the last album was a bit meh.

    I have to say though I love playing Moves Like Jagger live.

    Posted · Edited by Valhalalf

    Bit of a long shot but due to downsizing my home recording setup I've decided to sell my Studio RTA Producer Station. It is in very good condition with only a dent to the rear cable tidy which is how it was out of the box. I upgraded the wheels to a stronger set when I got it and have bags of rack screws and washers for it.

    This cost me over £300 a couple of years ago from Thomann so looking for £185 collected from Leicester.

    Desk is very easy to assemble and comes with instructions.

    [*]Plenty of rack space: 33U (2x 14U below and 5 additional units above main work surface).

    [*]Bottom shelf for computer and printer, integrated CD rack for up to 16 CDs.

    Too Many Mistakes

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    This thread has been so uplifitng for me to read.

    I've been worrying no end for the last few months as I really felt like I've been letting my band down and worried I would get replaced, even though I helped set it up and they're all my mates (proper paranoia). I don't think I've done a single gig mistake free in the 12 months this band has been going, and it's always songs I've played fault free 100 times before. A momentary lapse of concentration and in goes a mistake, then I spend the rest of the song beating myself up over it, which means I make more mistakes and so the loop continues. I've only seriously been playing bass for 2 years and still feel I've got a long way to go. I've played guitar for 20+ years, studied it at music college and can shred like the best of them, but it bored me so I switched to bass. I thought it would be an easy swap but I was very wrong and I feel like a begginer again which doesn't help my confidence when I bust out a mistake.

    My probelm, and it is purely a confidence issue, is I know the other people in the band have played with some incredible bassists over the years and everytime I make a mistake I get it into my head they're getting fed up with it. What I need to start doing is forget about the mistake as soon as it happens and laught it off.

    Like everyone has been saying, we're only human.
