fleabag

There was a time when it was mentioned somewhere , here or on ze web, that a certain make of cable had jack plugs that were slightly over-size, and when inserting in the jack socket, actually widened it, so future cables of other brands ended up being a baggy fit and causing connection problems Possibly Planet Waves or Whirlwind, but i'm totally guessing, as i cannot remember their name

Agreed. I've been in such a band in the past. Sadly, just the one band. Maybe it was easier because it was a 3 piece. Anyways, we rehearsed once a week without fail ( emergancies accepted ) and were gigging , from scratch , including me and my pal finding the 3rd musician, in 3 months flat

Perhaps the c/ is for ' custom ' and tells YT that very thing. I'd be guessing though Silv

Dos ?

Ah, no good for me. I want twin humbuckers with a 15 tog rating

I think that ad is brilliant. It's non vague, to the point. I like a tight ship , too. It's the way to get things done, even in a pub band

Avoid solos all costs. They're as cheesy as a block of cheese in a block of cheese championships

I wouldn't bother with a wrap. I'd go for hydro dipping and then get the thing lacquered

My entire bass rig is up for sale if any mediocre bassists are in the market for some mediocre bass gear not being played by a mediocre bass muppet

I'm a bit partial to Herbie Flowers, and apart from the famous Lou Reed ' Walk on the Wild Side ' Flowers has been on a gazillion other tracks including Bowie of course. Just a few appearences of Flowers on Bowie tracks include Rebel Rebel, Man Who Sold The World, Diamond Dogs etc. His track record is awesome https://www.allmusic.com/artist/herbie-flowers-mn0000677415/credits?1636809404356 And then there's GA Dorsey. Brilliant of course.

Haven't seen any slowdown meself, and i've been on and off site all day

It works, cos there's no massive YT vid. Here to help

Just post as links instead.

Between Gong and the Ozrics was the fab Steve Hillage , with equally fabulous Mike Howlett on bass.

And not forgetting the brilliant Brandi

Whoever posted that, they'e morons. Or they think they're being clever, or mysterious. I'd rather flush meself down the bog than reply to that weirdo

I'm wondering why this thread is in Site News instead of Site Issues. Bizarre

How short does one have to be to have that section ?

Damnation. I forgot all the left handers ! Still, same boat as 7/8 strings and above. Freaks

I have an idea that will make everyone happy. Well, apart from 7 / 8 / string and above. But who cares about them freaks.

Not sure on that Mickey - their phone number is in my first post, so could be worth giving them a ring

Yeah he did that at my local !

Good feedback. Yes, Monica is the lady mrs bag did the booking with. I've seen Robin Bibi in my local before, as a 3 piece, and he was awesome

Myself and mrs bag are off to this blues weekender fest in Bournemouth in December . Its run at several locations but this one happens to be at the Heathlands Hotel. 3/4 days of it. I dont mind a bit of blues, and of course there's variations at the indoor fest. Acoustic, trad, rock etc. 3 or 4 days maybe a bit much for me but mrs bag is a blues addict, so i'm happy to go. Evening nosebag and brekky included for the duration of the stay. Booze prices are reasonable too, which is extra, natch Anyone else heard of this Boogaloo bunch ? I'd never heard of this mob till mrs bag informed me and asked if i'd go along.

Take photos of the stages of packing. In the event that they try and wriggle out of damage done , you can prove it was packed to good standards
