  1. BREAKING NEWS: Medics have rushed into the I’m a Celeb camp after Matt Hancock was stung by a scorpion. The venomous, creepy creature known for causing pain and death is said to be moaning about his sore finger. 

    No update on the health of the scorpion though...

      Hope the Scorpion wasn't harmed too much.

  2. I entered a fancy dress competition yesterday dressed as a giraffe.

    I didn't win, but at least I can hold my head up high...

  3. 433 to 367? 😕
  4. Why do the Riot Police get up early?

    To beat the crowds...

  5. What is it with these people who refuse to embrace modern technology?

    Answers on a postcard please...

  6. After seeing their energy bills rise, my local Chinese restaurant has been trying to save money.

    They say they can't turn all the lights off, but they do dim some.

      That is so outrageously awful that I rather wish I'd thought of it ...

  7. Django Reinhardt did more than ok with just 2 fingers.
  8. Probably why he only lasted for one album. Imagine him trying to play the solo to Tornado of Souls 😖
  9. Actually not, it's influenced by the Double Bass extended fretboard.
  10. If it's not good enough for Stanley it's not good enough for me!
  11. Well speaking personally, my thinking was that my luthier - Jon Shuker - had the talent and enjoyed the challenge of helping me realize my custom bass dream.
  12. You should move that to the Basses on the Settee thread 😜
  13. No routine as such. Usually learning songs or playing through set lists, or along with previous gig recordings. Occasionally I'll relearn something like Rhythm Stick to keep my chops up. Set up is usually a multi fx, phone into the aux, and headphones. Or Peavey Vypyr VIP III at very low volume.
  14. I saw the Seoul Philharmonic Orchestra last week. During the second half one of the violinists collapsed and they were doing CPR to her on stage. She was moved backstage when they got her breathing, then they continued with the music.
  15. Billy Sheehan said that 90% of what he does, is just being a bass player in the band. But if fans go to see a band with Billy Sheehan they're probably going to expect a bass solo.
  16. Because it's fun?
  17. Peter Cook: in America they have their soul singers, over here we have our soul singers.
  18. I used to have a multi fx and the wah options included 'ooh' and 'aah'. The 'ooh' worked perfectly for Living on a Prayer. Also can't remember which one 😟
  19. Blue Lou! 😎
  20. Why not? #thehandlesdontfalloffanymore
  21. Bear in mind that comes from the composer's and performers of the free form jazz exploration 'Jazz Odyssey '.
