not if it's broken because the hands have fallen off

This. Absolutely this.

well i've got the bass for it! 😎

IIRC the lady who played bass with Prince used a Fender Zone bass?

And so many things like feeding the hungry and giving people access to healthcare start with religion too. Personally I would have no qualms accepting a gig if was playing with gospel singers who could belt it out like Aretha.

Not a fan then, unlike Rodney Trotter?

Manic Street Preachers tribute band then?

TBF a lot of 'trio bands' use extra touring members.

I took some mates to see our very own Cetera's Kiss tribute band many moons ago. Awesome full on show - blood, fire breathing, pyro - and the Paul Stanley character couldn't have sounded more like Paul Stanley without actually being Paul Stanley. Contrast that with a Coldplay tribute I saw, whose biggest cheer came during an encore when they did a cover of 'I believe in a thing call love' by The Darkness. True story...

just take it one day at a time...

Still love me a bit of Specimen

there were rumours at the time, furthered by the fact they had the same management.

I saw Aswad when they played Wembley Stadium 😎 they were great, it's a pity people only know them for that Tina Turner cover they did.

The video diaries of the Shuker build courses are always great to follow.

I think more pics are needed?

Fuzzbox.

"Doris Day". " I never said she didn't ".

me too, although mine was owned by the college I was at. But I was the only one who played and gigged it. The first bass that I owned was an Ibanez Blazer Bass. I know I sold it, but I can't remember to who, or when.

I think SSOASS is the cut off point due to Harry's back to basics intentions which came afterwards. Although for me you knew where you were with 3 nights at the Hammersmith Odeon, Wembley Arena wasn't the same.

that's the fella! 🤣

In the 80's there was a guitar - IIRC Lita Ford briefly endorsed it - which had a chunk of the body missing in front of where the neck joined the body. The ads gave a lot of blurb about how this was better for sustain etc, but after the company folded it was admitted that the body shape was due to a lathing accident. Anyone else remember this? I've tried searching but can't find any pics.
