Yes, Chic aren't a tribute band, so surely the way they play the tunes now IS the way Chic play them. The recordings were 30 odd years ago.

[quote name='PawelG' timestamp='1498481429' post='3324875'] So, you were genuinely interested who would win. Would you have a chance to, you reckon? [/quote] not a chance! I don't actually eat large quantities, but it's "all the wrong stuff"

I posted that soon after I'd weighed myself and put the figures into a calculator that said I'm officially Obese. AND I'm only 5 foot 3,so I win! I love pies too!

I think Jerry is bringing his own thing to it. He knows he isn't Bernard. I think his tone is right on the money, and giving the crowd something to dig.

Holy flip. Good times . Hope my neighbours LIKE chic cos they are sure as hell hearing it right now. What a great sound!!!

Absolutely killing it! But who we would win in a pie eating contest between the drummer and bass player?

Totally get that

I have trigger finger in my left little finger. I've had injections in the tendon which gradually relieves it,but it has come back. it's literally a bit hit and miss as the efficacy of the treatment depends on exactly where the injection hits the lump on the tendon.

It's a bit shouty, I switched to the Jacksons a while back.

Voted. I did like Mornat's, even though I thought the choirs at the end were a little ott for this picture Another good one to fit the picture from Mr. Shot, again.

I find it amusing that rock 'n' roll, wild, rebellious music () is so conservative in its choice of instruments. Caveat : only based on 3 hours of viewing so far!

I managed to sneak a late one in last month. You might get away with it if you get something together over the weekend. I am on one strike though...

I'm finding it quite relaxing. I don't know much by them but find it interesting enough to stick with.

Or should that be spodding? Haven't spotted much interesting yet. Thom Yorke with a music stand though, surprised he didn't get bottled off

On BBC 2 now.

Heard this band on 6 music over the weekend, and just got round to checking some more tunes out in case the one I heard was a one off. It appears not, and I really like it! Maybe Tool, with the B52s singing. In Japanese? http://m.youtube.com/?reload=7&rdm=2mqqqh4xk#/watch?v=Tqpj9gmk8UI

[quote name='Highfox' timestamp='1497960703' post='3321613'] Thanks everyone. Roman from here did a great job on the track with the mix I gave him. He brought some life and air to the track and has promised to help some more in the future It's always nice to get a set of extra ears from outside the band that can give an extra opinion and thoughts especially when you are trying to do it all in house and on a budget. [/quote] Can we hear the before and after somewhere?

"I managed to turn my already very warm music room into a sauna recording the guitar for this." Gotta love class-A valve amps, eh?

I bought a U.S. Masters fretless neck for one of my Masters basses. It was the only source for those basses, as they have a simple, but unique attachment method. When it came, it was lovely, but the side dots were in the wrong place, between, not on the fret position. I pointed this out and they were very apologetic, and sent me a correctly made one (eventually, took ages!) But didn't require me to send the other back, which was nice. The bad neck now wears Luminlay side inlays in the correct position....

You've right, of course, but I do think the video puts across the ideas in a very understandable way. As he says, you need to start with a great sounding mix in the first place.

I think these had a rep for being weighty. does it have a big lump of brass in/on it somewhere?

In early for a change! I mixed the track and it doesn't seem as disturbing as it did on first listen. Was going to add more stuff, but decided a 12-string and screwdriver was enough. It's no meisterwerk, but it does evoke some kind of dour mood. Here you go: https://soundcloud.com/julian-moss-511168525/descent-into-entropy

"I went to the one in Reading a few weeks back. The chimichangas were good, but there was one of those pushy "give me money for spraying you with cologne and handing you a paper towel" guys in the bogs, which is one of those things that never fails to be detrimental to my evening out. S.P. " I take it you haven't been to Cuba? That's the bog paper they hand out!

Spoken like a proper old bloke!

A guy we did part of of a mini tour with bought a Revelation Jazzmaster thin line for a couple of hundred. Looks great, good pickups with coil tap, designed by Entwhistle. I'd probably get one if i was allowed any more guitars, so cool! https://www.vintageandmodernguitars.co.uk/product/revelation-jazzmaster-thinline-rjt60-tl-fr-fiesta-red/
