If anyone is going from South West London and has a spare seat let me know. I'll share petrol costs.

[quote name='maxrossell' post='493018' date='May 20 2009, 09:56 AM']How long is a piece of string?[/quote] I do actually have a piece of string, kept specially for this purpose, so that when people ask I can tell them exactly how long it is. Although Tee's reply will suffice

it's not small, it's compact and bijou

Piccies?

[quote name='pq211145' post='492144' date='May 19 2009, 09:49 AM']Well once its gone il be playing through A Mark Bass 4x10.. Even though the 6x10 is light to carry round, im not doing the gigs that need this kind of power. 4x10 is enough for me..[/quote] what head?

[quote name='Linus27' post='492151' date='May 19 2009, 10:00 AM']Have to agree with this 100%. We spent about £6000 on lawyers fees looking over our contracts. Took 3 months going back and forth ironing out all the issues.[/quote] Not in the MU? Could have saved yourself 6 grand! It's worth the monthly sub for the £2k of free instrument insurance alone, but when you figure in to it all the free legal and contract advice I'm amazed more musicians haven't joined

Another Corkhead! Welcome to the forum.

Hey Jason so once the Mark Bass rig is gone will you still have something to play through, or will the sale fund a GAS purchase? McD

cheers for the replies

[quote name='ashevans09' post='491482' date='May 18 2009, 03:42 PM']Perfect game plan. Nothing but respect for them [/quote] I remember the ads when the band was being formed. The fat blond guy was left over from when the management formed Busted, so they formed McFly around him. The ads were in The Stage and the NME. I was way over the age limit but thought it might have been a laugh to turn up.

[quote name='Stylon Pilson' post='491475' date='May 18 2009, 03:34 PM']Hard-Fi? [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stars_of_cctv"]Stars Of CCTV[/url] is the album that I think you are referring to. S.P.[/quote] that's the fella!

re. the bit in the OP about home recordings. The band with 'CCTV' in one of their album titles, lists where the album tracks were recorded, and it was mostly home done, but professionally mastered. There will always be exceptions to the rule, and new bands will make it. And this will still give the false glimmer of hope to the rest of us.

Just watched So Hard To Beat, the program about bands from Northern Ireland. When they were doing the Stiff Little Fingers, their bassist has what looks like a white Guild B-30something. Looks well sweet.

[quote name='lemmywinks' post='489960' date='May 16 2009, 05:23 PM']Aye i thought it was the Zoot shape like mine, the one shared by the Chaser, Performer et al. A quick look on the site and Mike has all their production basses under the Zoot banner including the Fendery one. The Boudica was just called the Iceni Boudica though i think Confusing stuff![/quote] The Funkmeister isn't a Zoot. I think mine is a custom Zoot. Is there a thread for Mike's basses in the porn section? If not who's gonna start one?
