[quote name='D.I. Joe' timestamp='1368898932' post='2082842'] A bunch of guys in silly shirts by the name of Fragile Sanity. We also do weddings! [/quote] Ahhhh... I have heard good things about you guys. I used to play in a band with a guy called Steve Gilbert who mentioned Fragile Sanity in glowing terms. Do you advertise your gigs anywhere? I'd like to check it out. Are you planning to move into wakes and barmitzvahs in the near future? That's where it's at!

[quote name='deanovw' timestamp='1368736111' post='2081007'] Yes I was! Blimey, I had forgotten about that site. It was really good for a while.

Unfortunately I'm already busy. What is the name of this good band, pray? I may have to check them out another time. [/size][/font][/size][/font]

[quote name='Geek99' timestamp='1368564178' post='2078719'] In an eighties hair metal band , if my memory is working. Possibly Poison ? [/quote] Well played, sir! You are indeed correct!

Just wondering. Cheers Leen. [/quote] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][font="Calibri"][size="3"]I wish, mate.

Nicely done! Kicks in sweet after the initial mellow intro. Nice grooves and plenty to keep the musicians in the audience interested.

[quote name='icastle' timestamp='1368556643' post='2078561'] I'm in that minority as well. I'll wear 'branded' clothing if it relates to a workplace thing, but that's about it. Having said that, I wouldn't wear it, but I do find this funny: [/quote] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][font="Calibri"][size="3"]Awesome. Can I send one to Bobby Dall?[/size][/font][/size][/font]

[quote name='White Cloud' timestamp='1368353199' post='2075912'] I think basses that have acquired wear through countless hours of playing are very cool....but I'm not sure brand new instruments that have been faked tick the box. [/quote] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][font="Calibri"][size="3"]Agreed with that....[/size][/font][/size][/font]

Hi there! To my shame, I have only recently discovered this forum. I've been playing bass for quite a few years - In my glam days I started off with a metallic pink Charvel bass, (what was I thinking??) which was a piece of crap, so I traded it in for a second hand Ibanez Roadster, which was way better and just in time for the grunge phase. I acquired another Roadster as back-up, also bought an Ibanez 6 string after I discovered John Myung, then bought a rather nice Musicman Stingray with 2 humbuckers, which meant that I sold the Roadsters on as I didn't play them any more. Had an Ampeg stack a few years back, which I sold when I went to uni. I've since had a Peavey Max 700 head and various cabs, the only one of which I have left is an ancient Trace Elliot 1x15. I'm probably going to sell that on and get a Barefaced 2x12, which will be easier to lug up 4 flights of stairs to my flat. I also play a bit of guitar, and I've got a PRS on the way, as some loon paid over the odds for my old car a few weeks back. Result! Anyway... helloooo!!
