I still want to see a new band use Tony Levin’s suggestion of ‘Post Burrito Depression’. However, as has been said, inoffensive and appropriate are what are called for here. Therefore, something along the lines of ‘Celebration Day’, ‘Good Times’ (or Thymes) or ‘Get It On’ would work, albeit dull.

I keep wanting to like The Smiths because of the bass and guitar work, but can never get beyond Morrissey’s whining and as I managed to get past Geddy’s voice (I’m now a big Rush fan), that’s saying something.

That’s what she said. Where the Streets Have No Name - U2

Locomotive Breath - Tull

What I’ve heard on the radio hits the spot for my tastes. RK is a brilliant guitarist and a great singer to boot (very Chris Cornell). His solo stuff is just superb.

Having just discovered short scales, if I didn’t have a Mustang already, I’d buy a Vintera Mustang, a MM short scale Ray, or a Chowny SWB.

Solitaire - The Carpenters

Long Tall Glasses - Leo Sayer

Sweet Like Chocolate - Shanks & Bigfoot

Here Come the Warm Jets - Eno

Love Rollercoaster - RHCP

Epsom used to be my local store. When I was buying my 4003s, the truss rods needed adjusting and the tech did it with speed, ease and accuracy so I could have a better demo experience. This turns out to have been no mean feat, I tried adjusting the neck some months later, having bought it and made an initial pig’s ear of it. I also had an Epiphone Casino, with Bigsby, totally set up, including fret levelling, by Epsom. When I picked it up it was a different playing guitar, real quality. I can only hope that my new ‘locals’ are as good (I can’t think why they wouldn’t be).
