  1. Hi Kai, Stay around and you'll learn a lot. I know I do. best, bert
  2. [quote name='sime17' timestamp='1349548836' post='1827679'] back to the original one and then going - 'yeah that's it - perfect!' [/quote] Oh yeah! That's a classic, that one. I find it especially funny with classicalish singers who get parts that are written for the standard ranges, and thusly normally should fit them. best, bert
  3. Yup! In the column to the left of the listing, under the Location heading, you can check the "UK only" box. best, bert
  4. Oh, and learning a keyboard instrument. Main instrument, keyboard, and drums. BLISS! best, bert
  5. Yes, it is. I will be doing it myself in some thirty years from now. Watch this space. I seriously believe playing the drums as well as you can in addition to a musical instrument (couldn't hold myself) is one of the best things to do. At any rate, one normally won't play the main instrument any more than 5 or 6 hours a day, so that leaves a lot of time for learning to play drums. Don't gimme no crap about jobs and kids, please. You've only got one lif Sorry, kids shouting BRB
  6. Willkommen bei BC! So ein Aksident kann nicht schlecht sein. Wir möchten dass du das www.Saiten enjoyen! Viel Spass! bassed, bert
  7. Hey Steve, Welcome to BC! Great gear and GAS you got. Enjoy your stay, and don't be a stranger. best, bert
  8. [quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1349398420' post='1825941'] A good swipe (or two, for stubborn cases...) should get the hint across..? Better still with a long-scale; more leverage...[/quote] Sigh... I'm sick and tired of these hateful postings. You should know very well that it's rather low life to give the bassist all the disadvantages of the leverage, and the keyboardist the advantages: The nerve! best, bert
  9. Wow. What a story, and how telling it is. I'm sorry for your loss, Pete, and can relate somewhat. As to Gareth, what can one say? Pure class, though not D. Thanks for sharing, both. best, bert
  10. Thanks, boys! Great stuff, and inspiring at that. One of these days I'm gonna learn to play bass. BTW, in my book, Dusty has great timing. best, bert
  11. [quote name='bengovier182' timestamp='1349432973' post='1826185'] I blanked mine incase there was [/quote] Yes, that's nice, Ben, but "*******" is written just like that: "*******", without upper-case. best, bert
  12. Last 40 years (as in totally): mostly originals Last 20 years: mostly covers Last year: home only, so that's what i voted.
  13. Willkommen, Matthias! Yup, it's a great place and a great community. Enjoy it and please be a part of it. [quote name='BassPimp66' timestamp='1349378193' post='1825580'] Warwick, Sandberg, Hofner, Marleaux, BassLab, Clover, Delano, Glockenklang, TecAmp...[/quote] Hey! Hohner, fer cryin' out loud! best, bert
  14. No way! Don't count on me! (noob myself) Welcome to BC, Jonnyboy! The info will readily stream your way. No worries there. Enjoy! best, bert
  15. [quote name='Lfalex v1.1' timestamp='1349255610' post='1823801'] Double your life for half the tv viewing time. [/quote]
  16. Ah. Learning again. Thanks. Love electrostats, me. Almost bought some that were like doors, but the wife voted for dynamic speakers, and I accepted. Have you gotten some help with the elements yet? best, bert
  17. [quote name='gilmour' timestamp='1349187804' post='1822984'] The Wavedrum mini is a much much better bit of kit - but does sound better in the hands of a percussionist.[/quote] Innersting. Very. Can you say some more about that? What's better about it? Is it only the mini that sounds better in the hands of a percussionist? best, bert
  18. Writing that, I was sooo happy there's no Ludwig van BeeTheven in classical music, but I didn't see a whole orchestra coming. Thanko mucho for not beating up my buddy. You're a gem! Or did you mean you strangled him instead? best, bert
  19. .... (writes in diary) "[b][i]Oc[/i][/b][b][i]t[/i][/b][b][i]ober 1, 6:32PM: Richardflea"[/i][/b] Boy, it's fun stalking this site! And easy too! best, bert
  20. Good luck with a hopefully speedy recovery! It may be a consolation that it will be better when it stops hurting like Hull. Won't keep my fingers crossed though, sorry. My bass doesn't like being fannytickled that way. All the best! bert
  21. I only buy XTC's version, sorry.
  22. Love my basses, and can't see then go at all (but I am aware that life can sometimes get in the way). My basses are all related to old loves, though they all differ from the old loves. But in reality the most important issue to me right now is not their sound by itself, but that I want to experience as many different sounds, necks, strings, pups, bridges etc. as possible, and preferably be able to play them too. I wanna be able to pick up any bass and play it reasonably well. best, bert
  23. I like that thing a lotta lots. PM me for my address. best, bert
  24. Hi Richard, Welcome to BC! Good that Bluejay sorted that out for you. Now join the banter and/or enjoy the site. best, bert
  25. Yup. He's that good. Give up. Adorable! best, bert
