[quote name='Sibob' timestamp='1435263966' post='2807179'] ... the blend is flawed until you mod it ... [/quote] No matter how many times I read that, I have absolutely NO CLUE what it means!

How are you getting your fake guitar sound? Are you simply trying to make your bass sound like a guitar, or are you splitting off a signal an octave or two up for processing separately? I sometimes do the latter (using a Fishman Fission pedal) and I then feed the 'guitar' signal through a bog-standard Boss DS-1 and into either a guitar combo or direct to the PA. Works for me.

So ... the Zoot Iceni which someone thought was a Status was actually a Shuker? I know my Hofner looks like a Gibson, but actually it's a Fender.

Is your Rumble the kickback-style, so that you can angle it upwards? If so, then it's not going to be particularly stable balanced on top of that Thomann stand. Al least the angled stand makes it virtually impossible for it to fall (or vibrate) right off the stand and onto the floor. An angled stand will also be saleable to one your guitarist friends when you realise that putting a bass combo on a stand rarely improves the situation.

Is there a new Peppa Pig CD out then?

We have a [size=5][i][b]winner[/b][/i][/size]!!! Hoping to pick it up this afternoon, just awaiting confirmation. Watch this space ...

I wondered about that too.

Ah now, that would be an interesting choice to have to make ...

Do you get any rules to follow?

Not unhappy. Just easily offended.

Ticket Price = £37.50 Facility Fee = £1.00 Service Charge = £4.90 Actual Price = £43.40 (i.e. nearly 16% higher than advertised) ******************************************* So what do you get for your extra money? "The venue facility fee will allow us to continue to invest in enhancing the O2 campus, to ensure that they continue to consistently deliver the highest-quality experience for artists, promoters and fans." That's a relief, then. I thought they just put it in their own pockets. And the service charge? £4.90 for allowing me to interact with an automated electronic website involving no time or effort on the part of IndigO2? Strangely, that's not explained. At all. ******************************************* Now if they just said, the price of a ticket is (say) £42.50 then I wouldn't have a problem. It's the fundamental deceit plus the accompanying bullshit which mean that I won't now be buying those tickets.

So what was the 'p' symbol for?

[quote name='grenadilla' timestamp='1435004680' post='2804682'] Duane was called "Skydog" because he liked being high. "Skydog slaver" may be a callout to Duane because he was a slaving studio musician, paid very little. [/quote] Alternatively, maybe Mick was actually singing "scarred old slaver", which is what the lyric has been for over 40 years.

Nice to be in a position to tell Apple to f*** off.

What's a comback ... is this a type of hairstyle?
