Hiya Andy.

Yep - but you really haven't heard me play!

What a B*stard!

People can be pretty ignorant at times I have the opposite problem at open mic night - no-one wants to get up and sing / play 'til they're tanked. Even then, no-one has got up to play the bass (my playing is obviously sooo awesome that they're intimidated...or something ). Overheard last night at open mic night during a break: 60ish woman to her friend... "What time does the karaoke start back up?"

Hiya Sickboy

I'm not sure sure about that... The Palmer is excellent though

Calling @WHUFC BASS... https://www.theguardian.com/music/2019/nov/29/run-for-the-balls-west-ham-team-up-with-iron-maiden-for-new-kit

There's a built-in compressor on my Eden WTDI pedal, which I use sparingly at open mic night. For 'proper' gigs, I use one of these: Ingersoll-Rand IR175. Sorry! I meant one of these: Palmer Bass Deepressor. Really good & solid as a rock!

Does anyone have any recommendations for the best way to record bass guitar on an Android 'phone - either direct from the bass, or from the 'phones socket of a mixing desk? Any help greatly appreciated

Nice gear! Hiya Obra

Best sort of German band, I find

What was your band called?

Python Derail:

That's not a pier!!! That's a sewage outfall!!!

Yeah - they've done lots of work to get it looking like this...

This is also Cleethorpes Pier - more recently... Anyway, I WIN!!! Manchester's Beautiful Pier:

Gaaaaargh - Cleethorpes!

I think ewe are being a bit harsh! That kind of talk will damage our relationsheep! So stop bleating on and go and fleece someone else!

I sense a pattern developing here... ...but the puns are just getting worsted! Sorry, alpaca my things and go...

Fair one 👍

First band was mates from school - we began about 2 years after we'd left sixth form. This morphed into band #2 - 2 original members from school - me & singer / guitarist, plus drummer from a local band who'd supported us, another old school person on guitar and another guitarist we poached from a support band we liked! ...10 year ish gap... Band #3 (current, fledgling) - the 'house band' from the open mic night I run at my local bar - 1 drummer & 1 singer / guitarist.

I always assumed that Smashing Pumpkins' Today was what the jeans company wanted, but the band said 'NO!!!' So the marketing bods got an unknown to record something with the same chords / distorted guitar pattern. I'm probably wrong...
