Number6

I work over that way so it may be handy thanks for the info

It's times like this that we need John Peel to send a message from beyond the grave......

Oh no.....i just saw this thread.....is rock dead or isn't it?

Badly.

Our band love playing pubs.....we may not be overly ambitious but we like the pub atmosphere and if we get a few bob in our bin we are quite happy. I suppose the difference is we are a hobby (mid life crisis) type band whilst some others are true working bands.

Hope it went well.

About once a fortnight, maybe twice before a gig depending if we have added any new songs to the set. Ideas and new material are discussed using WhatsApp. We only rehearse for 3 hours at a time as any more an we all start complaining about our many middle aged ailments 😂

That looks really good! Well done 👍

Sod that.....too much for my back and neck 😩

[quote name='BILL POSTERS' timestamp='1409499467' post='2540214'] Always struck me as a wildly undated band, Bad Moon Rising always takes me back to bombing down to Rickmansworth in a Mk2 Zodiac to see my then girlfriend - great car when your only about 17 - Heres my favourite creedence track, whch nobody else ever seems to have heard of. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuPtOtGF4TY [/quote] Great car now!

I could never be in a band with my wife.....the band split would be very acrimonious. Just saying but there is a point to my statement 😉

Everyone should have a pension fund

Great band(s) i also am partial to Gov't Mule with Allen Woody on bass.

Terrible shame RIP Glenn

[quote name='bonzodog' timestamp='1409253986' post='2538067'] Cool. I grew up playing in various metal bands. Anything from WASP to Metallica, but then last year I was asked to join a MOD covers band playing The Jam, and The Who etc. Cant believe how much I am enjoying it and the bass lines are so much cooler to play! Always good to have a change. I used to play WASP' Widowmaker in a band from the dim distant past [/quote]

A great video..... I'm not sure i can remember 100 basslines nowadays haha.....quite a talented young player.....which is annoying as all it reminds me of is my mediocrity on the bass lol.

I have the Digitech Bass Synth Wah.....lots of decent sounds for 35 quid!

Well done, glad it went well (despite the weather).

I went to Wunjo today to get a chorus pedal. Had a good chat with the guys and i can see they are passionate about customer service. I can't fault the place really.....oh and btw they appear to have just taken delivery of some new instruments so definitely worth a look! Paul

All safe and sound is the most important thing.....make sure if you know any of their friends, family or associates that word gets around that they ripped you off though

I actually use a drumming exercise of paradiddles with my fingers (google it if you don't know what it is) which is basically Left Right Left Left then Right Left Right Right.....drumming my fingers on the side. It is an excellent coordination exercise and may help.

Seems to happen a lot with musicians. Set yourself a target date for your break and for the things you want to learn. Assess the situation at the target date. You'll either feel rested and ready to go back into the fray or you may want some more time. If your mind is set on a break clearly you feel you need it.

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1408649829' post='2532278'] Sounds like he created his own TT supply regardless of the mains incomer type which is cool if you know what you are doing but not so much if you dont. [/quote] Absolutely and if not careful you could introduce fault surface voltages into local equipment. With a proper supply cable with an adequate cross sectional area further earthing should not be required however equipotential bonding and supplemental bonding may be required for parallel path cpc's. Anyway that sounds far too much like work so i'll shut up now.

My favourite sounding most playable bass is made by a company many avoid.....there are names i wish it had on the headstock but it doesn't and you know what.....i still love the sound of it

Earthing arrangements really depend on the supply system.....i.e. TNS, TNC-S or TT Just saying
