Hubba.

Never worry about it, all I ask is beginners questions and I'm 58.

Morning.

Obviously... RIP Dave Greenfield.

I've been gigging for just a shade over 40 years and every single gig I've ever done could have been done with the rig @BigRedX uses. Likewise I have a QSC FRFR speaker and a HX Stomp, most gigs I just use the Stomp direct to the PA unless the monitoring isn't up to much when I'll go Bass > Stomp > QSC and take a line to the desk from the back of the QSC. For gigs without a PA the QSC is fine as backline.

^^^ This, with potentially expensive bells on.

Hello *waves*... ...Rickenwhatnow?

Foolish nostalgia somehow led me, some thirty one years later, to rewatch Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure. Apart from the “...and I’m the Duke of Ted” line that still raised a chuckle, it was thin and dreadful, one might say bogus. However I did recognise the opening music and a quick Shazam revealed it to be Australian pop/funk/rock band Big Pig. I quite liked their first album Bonk, which, unlike B&Ts EA, is still sounding ok...

Welcome to the low end.

Totally, leave that beauty as is.

Gerrard appears to approve, albeit with abject coolness. A footballer possibly? “Jeeves, Google Gerrard would you, good man, I'll be in the library.”

Humus, dix, poo... *head explodes with the overpun*

I thought it was a place where one could enlist the services of a taxi?

He means ‘Hessex’ obv. Welcome.

My personal lockdown anthem...

I agree totally, Wals are way overpriced. As I’ve said before, by a fully customised ACG and spend the 3-4K change on two more!

I think this is entirely down to your own preference, which usually correlates to how they are on your first fretless. I favour lined with the dots in the usual place between where the frets would be.

Oh that’s sweet.

I have discovered a couple of radio programmes lately that have been good sources for interesting music ... BBC Radio 3 - Late Junction BBC Radio 6 - Stewart Maconie's Freak Zone

God I had forgotten Consolidated, excellent band, saw them a couple of times, they stopped mid gig and did a Q&A!
