No, the worst I get will be an eye roll or 'another one?' a 'thats ugly' - the basses are mostly paid for by my gigging money, so it is largely self supported, and most of the basses hang on various walls.

But at least it was a good idea to have Olivia rodrego on the Legends slot And wasn't Velvet Sundown set good?

So where do you get a HW one? I have always heard about them but they seem like noone knows where they come from!

I do like some of her stuff, but I thought her glastonbury performance of "you ought to know" was weak, the rest was sort of ok. Wait until you hear rod

* in 2001, since then it is about the 7th. Strange that it is now half the size that it was. what happened? Did it get too big for itself?

In which case its easy, but for me it was my favourite group, so the change is not something I can put up with. Same reason I didn't go to see the last genesis gig.

Honestly I couldn't point to one Maroon 5 song, I just noticed in the list of most albums sold, they were above rod stewart (and fleetwood mac - colour me surprised).

I suspect the EMG pickups are passive going to a basic preamp, or maybe that has been taken out (or bypassed). Is there a battery? Is it a battery with any charge in it?

No, but if you walked into a pub today and heard him, you would laugh and walk out and wonder why they were paying him, you would only stay because he was someone, back in the day, not because of how he is now. I don't know if him selling slightly more records than Nicki Minaj and slighly fewer than Maroon 5 means that he is someone to put on the main stage at a place like glastonbury, especially when most of those records were decades ago. I was never a fan of 'aren't they doing well considering'. You get it a lot, for a lot of artists, I remember the cindi lauper one last time, 'oh she is doing well considering', no, she was f'ing terrible. Maybe it is because I take a performance on merit, not 'considering'. I am a huge rush fan and had a chance to see them at their final tour, but didn't, because Geddy Lee simply can't sing his stuff any more, so I am better off listing to the record, rather than going and thinking 'oh they did well considering'.

Assuming it is a Spector Legend from your description. Almost certainly the knobs are volume, pan, bass and treble. generally volume at the front and pan closest to the pickups, but sometimes spector change that for a laugh. bass and treble should be reasonably apparent.

Ah, like a participation award. That's what the pyramid stage is used for now! The drummers dad is over 80, he likes getting up for a sing, he's not great but he has a go and people seem to enjoy it, maybe I can see if we can get him booked for Glastonbury next time

He could have tried singing in tune as well - works for some people!

German never was a good language for singing in was it!

Did that at a gig once and some woman pulled my headphone out to tell me something related to some argument she was having with another woman.

I don't think it was a strong on telly as it was in other years, and some acts really weren't great, but there was enough as a viewer at home to see that you probably could like and you can look through them as you choose. It is obviously very different to being there, as there is a lot you won't see when you are at home, which is what makes the festival and there was enough outrage for people in the meaja to rant about for a week until some actual news turns up, so everyone should be happy. And I am happy that after the week, we finally get the A37 past Pilton back!

I saw about 3 minutes of Rod Stewarts set. The pyramid stage, really? Was everyone else busy this year?!

I think pulp did a pretty good set and went down well.

There seem to be quite a few in the crowd on iplayer at the moment, including a big one right in the middle.

Well, I have seen videos of both Taylor swift and Biffy Clyro live now and I am not sure I can see where you are coming from!

Saw the stuff on bbc four or whatever it was - a bit disjointed with not much of many groups. So saw Alanis, which I guess was ok, wasn't that impressed with you ought to know, seemed like she had got over it! I guess ok if you were there. Saw En Vogue - not generally my sort of thing, but very professional and tight, the bass player was great, and there was the funny contrast of 4 black girls on stage, then panning across the most white middle class audience you could possible get anywhere. Then a few individual songs, Yusuf Islam, one song, I didn't know, my wife did, seemed ok. Then biffy clyro, never got them so stopped watching at that point. then went back for the live catchup (which is odd, I guess that makes it not live!), so I could see the glass beams gig which I thought was pretty good Haven't seen any today but going to look if pulp were any good.

Good trade. I have an OLP which I got as I was originally put of stingrays, but still had a hankering for one, and this one came up and it was bright orange so seemed a no brainer. I use it quite a lot, very basic but good fun to play with a neck I can get on with.

Its already refinished, there is no value to lose even if that mattered to him.

I can see the convenience but as you have an actual battery compartment on those, its hardly that much of an issue, it takes less than a minute and it only has to be done every few months.

Indeed, and due to the tollerance of preamp voltage sources, and how batteries maintain their voltage to near the end, thats still the same gig and you should have changed the battery ages ago!
