  1. IME this is the issue. The lack of control most bands would have had over how their first album sounded cannot be overstated. What the band intended and what the record company paid for are very different things.
  2. Is it good for metal?
  3. Toxic - Brittany Spears version, although we're probably gonna have to faff about with it as we're a 3 piece instrument-wise.
  4. And Liam indulging in some casual racism. https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/news/oasis-liam-gallagher-slur-reunion-tour-b2781106.html
  5. I feel your pain...
  6. My Fender custom shop bass was actually a Kubicki. I had 2 Kubick's, one made by Kubicki, the other (for some reason) made by the Fender custom shop. The only difference was the Fender had a nicer neck (for me). A tad slimmer and faster.
  7. Whilst I take your point, if that's the criteria let's get The Bay City Rollers on!
  8. Nice to see her doing well at a festival for a change, after what happened to her duo.
  9. *warning* contains some swears. https://www.facebook.com/reel/654000447690346/?mibextid=rS40aB7S9Ucbxw6v
  10. I haven't got regular telly, but it seems Neil Young was broadcast on the BBC?
  11. You know those Les Paul basses? They're difficult to find, have severe neck dive, weigh a ton, and sound really bad! They smell too 🤢 😉
  12. Even though they're yanks, it's good they use the correct spelling 😜
  13. He was offered the 'Stones gig, but couldn't take it as he was committed to Living Colour. But then Vernon folded the band 2 weeks later (ot something), so he could have done it, but by then Darryl had it.
  14. Decent attenuating earplugs are great for noisy environments because they reduce background volume but you can still have a conversation with the person in front of you.
  15. Poor Doug, would have had the 'Stones gig if it wasn't for Vernon. Looks like he hasn't borne a grudge.
  16. Like what you did there 😉
  17. Mine started after I was pushed off a wall when I was 12. Getting into heavy metal when I was 14 probably didn't help 😈
  18. Disagree, IME that's the worst thing to do. The advice I got from an audiologist was to concentrate on it, and listen to it, and eventually your brain reaches a point where it tunes it out automatically. For me this has worked, and it is so much better than it used to be to the point that I can now ignore it. I always wanted to tune it, so that it was a specific pitch and useful for tuning. Never happened though 😆
  19. "Critics say bluntly, “Well, nobody’s forcing them”. But test that logic and there is simply no Glastonbury any more. “Unsustainable” is a word used a lot in private. '
  20. In reply to the OP, yup! 😁 I'm in the 'I buy 'em to play 'em' camp.
  21. Bugger. I remember contacting him for advice on a potential BCR purchase years ago. He was the go to guy for BCR info, and couldn't have been more helpful. RIP Lorne 😟
  22. I'd love to play it, but I've got no interest in being a punter.
  23. This is my go-to wah on my Digitech BP355 (Digitech and DOD operated under the same corporate ownership and shared design teams). Easy to use and sounds great.
  24. I'm looking for the same thing in that London.
  25. Absolutely this! 😁
