oh yes, and welcome too. Of course, welcome, welcome. welcome. I'm off to get crisps or something.

I have an ashdown amp... and an SWR... That makes me Mr. Ashdown SWR. (SWR means second world royalty.)

Hello! D- Da low frequencies? (sorry, i have opened a cider) Y- Y not? And to really confuse you, here is me talking crap. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0gqMGOeanQ WELCOME! and enjoy! I do sometimes write less than great things about americans, but i'm sure they don't apply to you

[quote name='harleyheath' timestamp='1358711285' post='1943891'] Clearly! An I'm lost for words! Lol [/quote] I tend to have that effect. Check out my D'Addario goodies. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0gqMGOeanQ

[quote name='harleyheath' timestamp='1358708515' post='1943795'] Rick who?? Ooo I thought I'd never hear that name again! Lol. [/quote] Well, you didn't count on running in to Milty then

This is how i find my sound. 1. buy gear 2. mess around with it 3. complain about it 4. look at what others have 5. buy what others have 6. Repeat.

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1358626943' post='1942570'] You [i]can [/i]change your avatar pic; I changed mine a couple of days ago. What you have to do is first remove the existing pic entirely, then host your new pic elsewhere then copy and paste the link where appropriate. Even then it can take up to an hour to appear for some reason, but it [i]is[/i] possible. [/quote] OH DAMN! It's just my luck that i happened to be trying to change my profile picture to a silhouette of me. It definitely must have worked then, i just didn't realise. *tsk*

[quote name='BassTractor' timestamp='1358621630' post='1942431'] Quick attempt without Google Translate: "Uh oh! This is going completely wrong. Well ... OK then: Welcome, pal* from an old organ/synth guy who also is learning to play the drums, and who switched to bass slightly over one year ago, and who, one week ago, ordered a fretless bass that will arrive in a few days. Only: don't live in Malmö but in southern Norway. Oh my gosh." *) Literally: "little boy", but there's a component here that makes I personally even use it with older people. Tends to break the ice. [/quote] Oh... haha.

Same problem. And my 'poota is one o dem der fruit machines too.

Oh oh! This is all very wrong. Well, OK then: Welcome, boy, an old organ / percussion synthman who also is learning and spacious years ago switched to bass, and last week a fretless bass has ordered that a few days arrive. Only, do not live in Malmö but in southern Norway. Gosh Young. I think maybe a couple of things has happened here, either Dutch doesn't translate well into english, google sucks at translating (probably that one) or Bert just writes random rubbish... oh wait, we know it's that last one Welcome. There's the toilets, there's the staff room, free tea and coffee, and here is your desk. Clock out at 5.

[quote name='silddx' timestamp='1358606746' post='1942103'] You'll notice the price has increased, but the poor standards remain. [/quote] Just wanted to point out that the price of everything has increased with no improvement. Trains, for example. I agree though, I can't abide even paying 20p for some daft "newspaper" and there being mistakes or poor use of basic grammar in it. Some are worse than others though. I haven't bought any issue of BGM, i find things like that all a bit overwhelming and, well, a bit nerdy. I used to read practical performance car a lot, and if you ask me, every magazine should be like it. (except, not about cars).

Bought it. testing it now, it sounds great so far

[quote name='uncle psychosis' timestamp='1358508944' post='1940416'] That says far more about your friends than it does about modern cinema. [/quote] Yes, i know it does. They like to think they are film buffs, but i find it hard to think of a weekend where they haven't gone to the cinema and posted an incredibly positive review of whatever film they saw on Facebook, with the obvious cliches of "Best film of the year" and such other obvious, meaningless phrases.

[quote name='uncle psychosis' timestamp='1358507256' post='1940375'] To you and me, yes. But I know lots of film geeks who feel the same way about their favourite directors as I do about my favourite bands. Its just horses for courses. I can assure you they didn't [/quote] I saw it in the cinema with my friends, and afterwards when we were leaving, they all started saying "That was amazing" and all the film clichés that people come off with, and i said something along the lines of "Yeah, it was alright, i wouldn't go as far as saying all that though", and it was like i had just admitted to being a pedophile or something. Sorry, but being funny does not make a good film.

[quote name='uncle psychosis' timestamp='1358505031' post='1940309'] I'm definitely a music-nerd and not really a film-nerd, but watching a film twice is not much different from listening to an album twice. Each time you might notice something new, or take something slightly different from it, or just take pleasure from something awesome. Not all films stand up to repeat viewings, but many do. [/quote] Not shutter Island, i can tell you that much. The only recent film i have watched in years, and you only get one good shot at it. I don't watch films anymore. People build them up to a level where they can never really live up to my expectations of it. People always said Step Brothers was an amazing film, i thought it was alright. Funny, but not anywhere near a great film.

[quote name='spike' timestamp='1358502156' post='1940235'] The spaces between the notes are as important as the notes themselves. [/quote] Literally just wrote something similar on twitter. I think it was more like this actually- "The more i listen, the more i realise the notes that aren't played are as great as the ones that are".

[quote name='BassTractor' timestamp='1358370632' post='1938149'] Class! Thanks, mate! Made my day. best, bert [/quote] was it really that good? Each to their own i suppose.

Where did this thread go wrong? Oh yeah, when i started typing it.

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1358368936' post='1938079'] Looks like we got off lightly there, then! [/quote] Yes, you best count your blessings.

In case anybody couldn't tell, that was in jest, and i don't condone suicide, or lying down on motorways, which may or may not lead to death. But ironically, saying that has brought the 2 things together. Death and metal. And it also describes how i feel about death metal. Well, isn't everything wrapped up in a neat little bow.

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1358367053' post='1938005'] Oh, all right. What about death metal? [/quote] I so wish i hadn't told you to ask me now. Maybe i'll just go and lie down on the motorway... I might actually have more luck if i just surprise attack a lorry from the hard shoulder.

[quote name='simononstyle' timestamp='1358366657' post='1937998'] Heading for sex. [/quote] Oh, rub it in, why don't you, or is that their job?
