    About to head off for IKEA. I am anticipating Xmas music. Wish me luck.

      I loathe 99% of Christmas music. Mrs Axe and I went into in a cheapie shop in Maidenhead and the Christmas music was so bad I walked straight out again.

      Did you come back with loads of really useful plastic things which you'll find unused at the back of a cupboard in a couple of years time?

      Was that a pointy remark then?

      So are you planning on doing one in the near future?

    Just another completely pointless Status Update ... I've just bought new strings. For my Status.

      I have to say, those lighter gauges are sounding pretty good to me. OK, part of it is simply that they're new of course, but they take less effort to fret and the higher strings especially have a crystal clarity that simply wasn't there before. Interesting.

    Loving this new idea of sending Private Messages by treating them as Status Updates. If only there was someone I wanted to ask a question of ...

      The trouble is that we get labelled as cranks if we dare to speak up.

      It's okay somehow for social media jockeys to claim that everyone they know is on the internet and they're all fine with it.  They won't acknowledge that they have effectively ostracised all those who aren't on it.

      Bless them.  They believe that internet polls are a true representation of the whole population.

      In all fairness, my life would be less exciting if I hadn't been told that my nephew just took a particularly huge dump and my sister-in-law had kippers for breakfast.

      Hahahahaha!

      Of course, as Mark advertises with his choice of screen name, the other side of the privacy coin is discretion.  It is quite distasteful to those who keep their business to themselves to have other folk's (nephew's) business wafted beneath their very noses.

      Not too sure about "Glorious Sexy Harrow" but you're damn right about "NBD to end all NBDs." 😁

    In the entirely hypothetical case of a Basschatter who does NOT own an iPhone, exactly how excited does the panel believe that Basschatter should be about tonight's mega-upgrade?

     

    Personally, I'm filing this under "a good day to bury bad news". :ph34r:

      What's an "upgrade"?

      (I thought they were all battery life downgrades...)

      I own an iPhone, but I have never tried to use BC with it.  Just as well, the place costs me far too much money already... :D

    Unbelievably, another Basschatter has just accused me of plagiarism.




    His words, not mine.

      Plagiarise a few more, then you can call it research...

    Very uncomfortable at the use of Status Updates to congratulate people on learning how to use Status Updates.

      The only acceptable Status Update is from Rob saying 'Your S2 is ready' 😎

      Love your status update Jack. Congratulations!

      At least they weren't discussing well-known carbon headless basses, then it would be a Status status update
