Was: From the ashes of disaster...now various projects

Hosted service like Imgur and then just post the link here? That's what I do anyway. -
How was Your rehearsal last morning or night ?
Si600 replied to nilorius's topic in General Discussion
It's a total scrotum singing it and playing it because there's no obvious rhythm to the text. I am slowly getting there though, but I may have to rely on a Music Stand when we do it... -

Sorry yes, Stranglers. I'd like to do the Presidents of the USA one because I've never heard anyone cover that, but alas it's not that one. -

Peaches is coming along surprisingly well. It's still a sod with the timing but I'm currently impressed with how well I'm learning it. -

And I got to rehearsal this evening and.... it all fell into place. No More Heroes was bob on, even if I say so myself. -

Do I have to rehearse or practice? Can't I just get good/competent without expending any effort or time. Not feeling it today in case you didn't notice. A song I can quite happily sing without accompaniment has totally deserted me today. Mangled words and totally mixed up lines. -
I think it's dead. They need to give it to you for use as a footrest for you onstage........

It's alright as a song, setting the slightly sketchy lyrics to one side. The bit I can't get my head around is singing it, as very few of the lines seem to match the timing of the phrases. They're either just before or overrun when they feel they should stop. Give me No More Heroes to do any day over Peaches.

How was my rehearsal last night? Awful. I could have transplanted my fingers with Tesco Value sausages and it would have been an improvement, and as for my sense of timing, that deserted me as I was tuning up. Everyone else seemed OK with it though, we made good progress apparently. -
Peaches. Bloody horrible song.

Relic'ing - my first attempt. (and probably my only one!)
Si600 replied to carlsim's topic in Build Diaries
Bugger all I suspect. The others have a good run and if you plugged and redrilled the E then it wouldn't line up with the rest. -

That's a nice looking thing, I think you've done enough relicing to be honest. It's got a nasty angle from the nut to the E string post mind you 😉 -
Sounds like some of the garbage MDP comes out with. At least it didn't mention the spacing being ideal for sausage fingered builder guitarists.

Trace Elliot V8 amp - ex John Entwistle
Si600 replied to VAMPYRE 5's topic in eBay - Weird and Wonderful
I know, but you're asking on a forum thread linking an ebay auction that ended in 2019. How are we supposed to know if it's for sale or not? -

Doubt it, but here's a selection of V8's for you to choose from. https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_nkw=V8&_from=R40&_oac=1 -
Could it be a reputation thing? The new host may not have enough traffic for the pointer to "stick"?

Ain't dat da troof!

Oooh, Earthtone9, there's a blast from the past, I saw them supporting Misery Loves Co at Camden Underworld about a million years ago!

I'm on the last leg of my train journey from Hamburg to home after seeing Massive Wagons at Bahnhof Pauli this evening, well, yesterday now, to be pedantic 😉 Tiny venue, 400 max capacity but a really good gig, probably the best I've seen for a while. It was one of those punt gigs after hearing a couple of songs on the radio but totally worth it.

This is what I'm using as my current drive patch. It started off by me asking the MLA for the best guess at JJB's sound from Rattus Norvegicus. As disscussed above that resulted in a horrible mess so I refined said question by asking it to use the Dark Pre, and no amp sims and it has ended up with the attached. Before you all jump in and say it sounds nothing like it, probably not, but it was an interesting experiment and I've ended up with a sound I like. Which is the important bit I think 🙂 I've also chucked a chorus in it to get a second drive patch and created a clean patch from it by winding the gain on the Dark Pre back to 10. EDIT, created and uploaded with Tone-Lib, but I imagine you could use ZoneLabs to open it if you don't use Tone-Lib. Drive.zb3n

I believe the correct equation is n+1

Don't post clickbait then WTAF is that supposed to be? Is it my eyes or are the "pickguard" and "pickups" just a printed sheet of paper?

Does a new pedalboard count? Nothing (more or less) on it is new, just the legs and top...

The Kulturwekstatt have for many years had a blues themed Easter Monday lunchtime concert with the regular Georg Schroeter/Marc Breitfelder band. Previously Georg and Marc have had brought guest artist with them but recently they've just had Kalle Reuter. Every song has a piano solo, a harmonica solo and a guitar solo in it. They're all amazing musicians but "They're Red Hot" doesn't have to last 15 minutes. We're not going again unless they change something, it was so boring last year. They'd better not see me play then! Life's too short for such pettiness

It was last Thursday, not last night. I was complimented on my tone, my timing and for being the first of their bassists to notice the do do do dee dee da do bit in the middle of the organ solo in Golden Brown. Apparently all of my predecessors have either missed it entirely or come in late. Because of which they don't play it anymore, so I was wrong as well 😂
