    You have friends here Ozzma. If you can record your music I'm sure there will be people here interested in what you do and keen to discuss it with you.

    I wish we played this. I'd set it up on the Looper and then I could wander off, have a pint, read the paper, have a look round the shops and probably fill in my tax return.

    I'm in - mainly because I'm utterly skint but I have to say that my enforced abstainance seems to have had a remarkable effect on GAS. Not really interested in anything and haven't been for quite a while. I've flogged a few bits and pieces too.

    My Father In Law used to say 'Get your guitar out and play us a tune'. I would reply that bass isn't really an instrument for that sort of thing and he'd then get grumpy. I suppose I should have just treated everybody to the bassline from Simple Minds - Waterfront for 10 minutes and that would have been the end of it.

    Those Rumblekats look nice but the control knob panel looks horrendous (to me). The only way they could have made it worse would have been to nail it on.

    It's the nature of auditions that a lot of them are a waste of time and it goes with the territory. Sometimes something will just click, not necessarily just the music either.

    Ibanez Talman get good reviews although I've not heard or played one.

    If you're that uninspired by it I'd turn up and jam it to see how it feels. If you miss out it's not a disaster and you haven't spent your time learning stuff you don't like. It might even lead to something more enjoyable.

    I reckon you've knocked it out of the park with your first post Telebass.

    Mix up the chromatic passing notes so that you play above or below the 'target' note. For example a turnaround using G E A and D could be played with passing notes as Ab G F E Bb A Eb D and then next time round G# G Eb E Bb A C#D and then you can swap the passing notes around however you want. You can also often use 2 steps instead of chromatic passes.

    Saw them in (probably) 78 supported by Graham Parker and The Rumour at Brunel University. Absolute monster of a gig with Robertson, Gorham and Downey. Made me want to play live music even more than I already did. I remember watching Phil Lynott doing his thing with his P bass and thinking 'I fancy some of THAT!'

    Lovely. Have a bump.

    I've always tuned low to high on the assumption that the heavier strings have more pull on the neck and therefore are more likely to have an effect on the other strings, so get them done first. Makes sense to me but I'm ready to be shot down in flames.

    There are artists who have passed me by for the simple reason that I wouldn't know where to start, Ry Cooder is a prime example. Others I've heard a bit and didn't like (e.g.Bob Dylan, Miles Davis). There are other artists who blow hot and cold for me but I do listen to the stuff that I like and filter out the rest, like Jeff Beck, who i think is a genius who often pushes the envelope a bit too far for me.

    Don't get me started on her. The only 'interviewer' I know (i use the term loosly) who asks a guest a question and then shrieks over their answer to express her own half baked opinion.

    My Mrs has radio 2 set on the alarm and whilst I can safely say that Evans blabbering on first thing in the morning was akin to torture for me, listening to Zoe Ball makes me want to throw myself out of the bedroom window. My God she spout some rubbish.

    Ed Sheeran seems to have done OK via the BBC without the 'grime' connection or troubled past (although I think he may have referenced nicking a bottle of his Mum's sherry in one of his songs).

    The Waterfront by Simple Minds 🙂

    No idea why I bothered reading that since these 'best' lists are always utter botox.

    I recently discovered that when an Ebay item's location is advertised as 'Middlesex', that is actually Middlesex - half way up the Yangtze river.
