[quote name='Dingus' timestamp='1406484322' post='2511845'] Without going into too much detail, I have suspected that Mrs Dingus believes that I can be replaced quite satisfactorily with various bits of machinery, and if she sees this video then I have no doubt it will reinforce that belief. Significantly, however, I cannot help but notice that the mad scientists behind this crazy scheme have chosen Coldplay as their demonstration track. Without wishing to sound too harsh, the bass player in Coldplay could be replaced with silence and you wouldn't really notice much difference, never mind a robot. I would like to hear this robot try and get funky[i] a la [/i]Stevie Wonder before I judge it. It will probably blow a fuse . Similarly with Mrs Dingus, none of her current pieces of apparatus, however generously proportioned, will go to the corner shop and buy her an ice lolly at ten o'clock at night. She ought to bear that in mind. [/quote] Remember that Iceland's deliver nowadays......just saying lol

The Anthrax t-shirt i have (somewhere) was from this gig at Hammersmith Odeon in 1987.....when i was 15 Anthrax - I Am The Law (Live 1987): http://youtu.be/tCdsO1mBGE4 Now i feel old.....

The first thing i learned on the bass was Money by Pink Floyd and it has never left me.....nice and slow too :-)

I am searching for my Dumpy's Rusty Nuts shirt from around 1990.....big pair of flying googles on the front and i had Dumpy for Xmas on the back.....lol @Spacechick i love my t-shirts it's just difficult to explain haha

Exactly like that one......great tour and album too.

One of my favourites was a DIO t-shirt from the 87-88 Dream Evil tour.....but alas it was washing machined to death :-( I have an Anthrax shirt from the Among the Living tour which i saw them at Hammersmith in 87.....but its knackered too lol

[quote name='SpaceChick' timestamp='1406307445' post='2510503'] Dark side of the Moon - Pink Floyd Animals - Pink Floyd The Wall - Pink Floyd Wish you were here - Pink Floyd the Division Bell - Pink Floyd Can you see why I'm in a Pink Floyd tribute band [/quote] Ditto Hawkwind for me :-) All Ozric Tentacles albums Robert Calvert: Captain Lockheed & The Starfighters and Lucky Leif and the Longships

I'm too old and a slow learner and can be cantankerous so my bad attitude would definitely rule me out lol.

Hi Pixie, Welcome. I took 20 + years off of playing but needed a middle age crisis excuse (another one) so started up again :-)

Still pretty good in that part of E London.....

Bethnal Green has very good transport links. Only a tube stop from Liverpool St station and lots of buses.....

In London Town public transport is without doubt the best option.....whereabouts in London are we talking about?

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1406162440' post='2509004'] Yes, as stated above. Collect Hofners. [/quote] Bit extreme don't you think? :-)

All of the above are great for identifying the bass if it does get pinched but are they a deterrent as the OP states? Are there any real deterrents for an opportunist thief?

I like charisma and honesty.....i like a person being honest about their abilities.

The Grateful Dead.....can't believe it's nearly 20 years since we lost Jerry Garcia.....

At feativals a cool hat is obligatory.....i'm thinking maybe a Panama ala Roger Glover.....

Never mind the intonation.....quick put them back all zigzaggy.....if they look right they are right ;-)

Bought a Nux Phaser.....great price, quick delivery and well packaged. Thank you.....Paul

Isn't Pestie flogging a Hartke 2x10 cab on here for 100 quid.....?
