Crikey. Glad you're ok. What you need is a replacement bumper made of that super hard woodtype you used on @fleabag's neck. That'll learn 'em. And fit some dispensers that launch that wood dust you need a mask for. (Yew?)

Tradition is just peer pressure from dead people.

At current prices of gas it might be cheaper to get some Deko’s on the wood burner!

Happily there’s been a few at Glasto doing it: Oliva Rodrigo, Billie Eilish, Kacey Musgraves. It’s an awful thing, and I’ve ignored no end of armchair critics decrying “millionaires complaining for attention.”

I refer the honourable gentleman to the Stingray threads…

Ooer - kinky Was it a good gig? Could you hear the instruments properly and not just noise?

Possibly changing the source of electronics - I don't know where all the shiny gubbins come from, but there was bound to be upheaval due to supply chain problems. Maybe they make toast this time! Maybe they'll release a WB-100 X, then the WB-100 Ultra, then....

Yes! Even if you hadn’t picked it up in months, disliked it and just wanted rid of it; a 10 minute clean and check of screws and tuners and so forth to make sure it’s not a total state is the least you can do.

4 loopers!! 4 loopers, loopers. Wait, I'm on repeat... What are the two similar (identical?) boxes perpendicular to the Ditto and Minnow on the left?

I should bally well think so too! Srsly though - nice roasting!

A lot of these are daft but you do find some really good ones. There’s a chap who is apparently a drummer who, in this video watched. Neil Peart live solo. He was dumbstruck for most of it. One I do like is The Charismatic Voice by the opera singer and vocal coach Elizabeth Zharoff. She dissects a lot of rock songs, explaining why some bits are more difficult to do than they sound etc. She was giddy at the odd time signatures and instrumental prowess of Tom Sawyer and Spirit of Radio, as well as giving feedback on the vocal warblings.

Not just summer anymore; Phoenix is crazy hot about 9mths a year! Nice resume and basses!

Was it a good place to work?

That was 2019, time flies! And he gave all staff except directors a payout. Look here for all the charters and codes they work to. https://www.richersounds.com/the-richer-way It was £1,000 per year of service, average length of service was 8 years.

Woah - easy on the 'humans' label... some of us are VERY weird

Now that's some advanced bodging. Well thought out!

Fragile - Yes America is just such a briliant song - a heady mix of Paul Simon's clever lyrics original and Yes' instrumental noodlery. The guitar and Bass tones are particularly awesome - I recall listening to it for the first time at Uni and just being blown away by Chris Squire.

As usual, No one is thinking of the children!!

Queen became the official Queen tribute act though - did they release anything new? What about Zep?

Is it Tone Plexiglass or just cheap Bassglass?

It's tough isn't it - running a business and seeing the costs of EVERYTHING getting out of control. Despite what the government or the people who compile the inflation stats say when they tell commentators that price rises are moderate or not as large as reported - this is very real inflation on materials, utilities, etc. and it increases everything such that businesses have to put prices up significantly to stay where they are. I've no doubt the 5 other people who work for Alex need to be paid more now, and who knows what their rent/rates is like now the 'extra measures' from the pandemic have wound down. As it happens: he's managed to do some proper analysis to re-align pricing on each product to better reflect their cost. I guess new orders will then show him which products are the most sought after.

Anyone frightened the OP by mentioning the Becos CompIQ offerings yet? *muahahah*

They may well have tried/be trying: it’s not an easy post to fill.

You've got a black sharpie... !
