[quote name='mewsie' post='261649' date='Aug 13 2008, 03:55 PM']btw: i'm in the band big thanks to everyone![/quote] Well done, Mewsie! Thanks for posting the charts, guys. This popped up on the same day I was asked to learn it by my band; looks like this is the next Mustang Sally!

I sleep like a log after a gig usually. Though when I wake up I feel a bit down, like there's something missing. Do I grieve the passing of the previous gig? Who knows? It certainly has some kind of emotional effect and I agree that that "hole" is very easy to fill with whatever is around, fortunately nowadays that's tea and marmite on toast.

I always have a back up but you really can't argue with Stewart's logic. I carry a DI in case the rig goes pop which is more likely. I have seen quite a few string breaks over the years though fortunately never my own.

[quote name='acidbass' post='196616' date='May 11 2008, 06:20 PM']Good question! I'd love to see a Who tribute band, having seen the original band a few times and always feeling that my ears don't hurt as much as they should afterwards [/quote] I think he might have those bits of tape to prevent earth buzz problems but saying that now he would have to have them at the top if he plays conventionally.

A rare appearance of Amy & the Aviators in a pub. Beautiful setting up on the Gloucester - Berkley canal, good food, great ciders and think they even have beer (cold, pale, fizzy and warm, brown, flat types) for those who are of that persuasion. AATA are primarily a function band, fronted by the very sexy Amy J in her littleblack dress. The Aviators air crew perform their backing duties in full customised flying suits and deliver a hugely entertaining and polished show.

Black for me.

I love mine it's great. Brilliant effects for what I use. Great backup DI and volume pedal is always useful as is the tuner, drum patterns and portability as a practise amp. Oh yeah and it's great as a soundcard/interface.

I know a lot of people who worship Stuart Zender go bananas for these things so I thought I'd alert you all to it. [url="http://www.stringsdirect.co.uk/products/3378-boss_me_8_bass_multi_effects_processor_ex_demo_"]http://www.stringsdirect.co.uk/products/33...cessor_ex_demo_[/url]

Lakland Skyline Darryl Jones 4. I've been so impressed with mine over the year that I've had it that I just had to get a spare. "Honestly Love, if the one breaks a string during a song the rest of the song wouldn't sound right on another type of bass and I don't want to be the one to let the whole band down."

I got an ATK400 and love it - there's a review of it here... [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=12612&hl=ibanez+atk"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...p;hl=ibanez+atk[/url]

[quote name='P-T-P' post='217039' date='Jun 11 2008, 05:01 PM']Also, on the new music front, there's thousands (millions) born every year for whom old music is new music. It could be the case that at your next gig, you might play Mustang Sally and someone there will be hearing it for the very first time.[/quote] I agrre absolutely, Pete and I would add to that the fact that a lot of younger people who are into music don't categorise Jimi Hendrix and Led Zep as "old" music and say Tool as "new" music - it's just all a bunch of stuff all on sale at the same place ready to be bought and enjoyed. Growing up I listened to a hell of a lot of music that was "before my time" (I really dislike that phrase) but was always conscious of what was new and what was old, I think that awareness is disappearing and probably for the best.

[quote name='BigBeefChief' post='216299' date='Jun 10 2008, 04:46 PM']I've always had the fantasy of Felicity Kendall AND Penelope Keith - whilst Richard Briers just watches.[/quote] I'd include Paul Eddington in there if it didn't cross a line of taste and morality!

[quote name='thisnameistaken' post='215866' date='Jun 10 2008, 12:52 AM']I mean I sure as hell wouldn't play Mustang Sally for anyone, but that's just having standards.[/quote] What if you were invited to jam with one of your heroes and it just so happened that the song chosen was Mustang Sally? Extreme example but just say...

^^^^^^+1000^^^^^^^^ [quote name='thisnameistaken' post='215866' date='Jun 10 2008, 12:52 AM']going on tour with Take That are not artistic endeavours, they are purely commercial.[/quote] I'd sell my Granny to camel herders to go on tour with Take That!

[quote name='Davemarks' post='208891' date='May 29 2008, 02:14 PM']get yourself a nice Compressor pedal - the EBS multicomp is awesome. It'll help give you that boost to hep the slap stuff cut through.... Dave[/quote] +1 - I use the same pedal and once you have found the right setting for you you'll come through with whatever bass you have. If you can try recording your songs at rehearsals with different compressor settings making a note of where the knobs are and listening back and then choosing what works for you. Good ole trial and error - cos sometimes what sounds good to you where you are standing doesn't sound so good out front and vice versa.
