[quote name='blue' timestamp='1484514898' post='3216065'] Good, well maintained gear is also an issue. When a guy shows up with an old untuned beat up kit with no cases with duct tape all over the place, it's usually an indicator the guy has other issues. [/quote] Right Because people who's gear is immaculate, dont have any issues I wouldn't be too judgemental in determining someone has obvious problems because their gear has duct tape on it. You could be missing out on an excellent musician As long as he doesnt have long unkempt hair. That means he will have issues

You made me inspect my wallet on false pretenses. Now the moths have all vacated.

Pedantry is not a criminal offence, otherwise i would have blown my whistle ( matron )

[quote name='mcnach' timestamp='1484227706' post='3213711'] I just see no evidence to claim that there's a general attitude on BC picking on 'big' players. [/quote] Neither do i. I mentioned a minority, which really isnt ' general ' As someone mentioned , misunderstandings are rife on forums where little emotion can be determined from a bit of text on a screen. I'm not saying thats always the case. Some posts by the arrogant are exactly that with obvious meaning, but many more times i suspect that the people jump on someone far too quick because they read what they want to read, with little thought about holding back and maybe interpreting things in a different way, or simply asking if thats what the poster meant Luckily, that is a minority. There's no question that this is general BC behaviour, far from it. There's many many good folk here

Disagree there I think a small minority have already decided on the attitude to adopt as soon as someone famous / much talent decides to post here Of the famous that have been chased off by the baiters, were they all arrogant then ? I doubt it

[quote name='Crawford13' timestamp='1484073001' post='3212474'] I genuinely didn't realise I was opening up such a big can of worms by posting this thread. [/quote] Welcome to basschat

I actually have a 2x10 x2 rig of Beyma units in Peavey cabs. A brilliant sound to my ears Its basically now my back up / practice at home rig, as my MB gigging rig is a bit lighter

I love the fact that Beller uses the name The Life Of Bryan as his title. I wonder if he ever watched...

[i]Ok next up "all male band seeks bass player" Men only please.. getting tricky eh?, why? because we expect equal rights perhaps? But How many adverts for 'all female band seeks...." Hmmm getting trickier positive discrimination is allowed i guess[/i] [i]-------------------[/i] Either of those is OK in your post. The other bit isnt. But then people are entitled to ask this, its just not a band i'd be interested in joining myself How many black rap bands would have a white man in their line up ? Its all relative in the end. I suppose it all depends

I didnt realise that the Ozrics Roly Wynne committed suicide in '99

[quote name='MoonBassAlpha' timestamp='1483358298' post='3206435'] That is my kind of thing, sounds influenced by Brand X. [/quote] Indeed , very similar. And both offered great music if you like that sort of genre Not sure if Visitor were influenced by Brand X , since both bands released their first albums in '76 ...Brand X released ' Unorthodox Behaviour and Visitor released 'Cain! A Modern Mystery Play '

[quote name='miles'tone' timestamp='1483358282' post='3206434'] That's Brandi Wynne of which you speak. She is still the bass player and wife of mainman Ed Wynne. Ed's son Silas is the keys/synths man now. [/quote] Thanks bud, yes the names eludued me without googling, but she's impressive, as they all are

Hows about this ? the FIRM's first album Paul Rodgers / Jimmy Page with the excellent Tony Franklin on slippy bass duties [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRKbKPJoYww[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TF9UncBtGQc&list=PLDDAYQXk_M64_wACKM2jGFcDIyVOaY4xi&index=7[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApS7wncd5ac&list=PLDDAYQXk_M64_wACKM2jGFcDIyVOaY4xi[/media]

Just my IMO, never thought of the Oz's as Floyd on steroids, rather more like solo Hillage. Bloody good band though, and the female bass player they had at some point was really on the ball, just like all the musicians they use
