  1. I think they're currently saying you get it for 2 days which is pretty poor to be honest. It starts at 5pm my time though, just as I finish work so I'm planning on grabbing a few beers and making a night of it.
  2. Must be regional pricing then. For me it's only 25 leva which is just over a tenner. Plus it's all going to charity instead of into Sharon Osborne's pocket which can only be a good thing.
  3. I suppose it would be possible to do some kind of screen recording but I'm not bothered. I'm thinking of it more as a live event at home. No way I could ever afford tickets or even get there if I could, so I'll be up in my barn with it on the big cinema screen. I'm also pretty happy that all the proceeds are going to charity so for once I actually don't mind paying for it.
  4. I haven't paid for a live stream event since the disappointment of the Tyson v Hollyfield fight back in 1997 but I'm definitely doing this one. Some of my favourite bands and artists of all time are in the line up. I don't know if it's regional pricing but the stream ticket is only the equivalent of about a tenner so pretty fair really. Really looking forward to this one. Is anybody else planning on streaming it?
  5. Ah thanks. That makes sense. I've never had an expensive enough bass to need one. 😆
  6. I do like the red trim on the T version though. Almost tempted to get one as a spare just for that. 😁
  7. I've been using the MOSFET version for about 5 years now as my main amp and it's absolutely outstanding! The tone is amazing and more power than you will ever need. Absolutely unbeatable even at twice the price.
  8. "The seller is a liar and a crackhead....." That's enough information for me right there.
  9. Stevie Nicks was pretty damn good too. 🤘
  10. Just watched the Fire Aid benefit concert and I have to say I really enjoyed it. While it might seem slightly harder to feel sorry for millionaire actors and musicians as opposed to starving people in Africa. We have to remember that so many have lost everything in the California fires. All that aside. Probably one of the best "live" (as in recorded live) concerts I've seen in years. The stand out moments for me were Alanis Morisette and No Doubt. Well worth a watch.
  11. Yeah I've seen the Redsubs and I'm not particularly keen. I've had gear4music stuff before and the HB stuff is generally much better quality. I've seen several Red Subs on eBay with busted headstocks.
  12. Not sure of this has already been mentioned but I couldn't find anything in the search feature. Harley Benton have finally released a multi scale bass. Given their reputation of quality at price I'm seriously tempted to dip my toe in the multi scale waters. Anybody got their hands on one yet? https://www.thomann.de/intl/harley_benton_msb_5_esp.htm?i11l=en_GB%3ABG.GBP%3AEUR
  13. Maybe not. But getting together every week to play purely for the enjoyment of doing so certainly does.
  14. I'm in a band made up of two married couples. Both the girls are amazing singers and neither have any ego whatsoever. It works wonderfully.
  15. None of my band is replaceable. Not because any of us are particularly good musicians, but because the band consists of two married couples. If one goes, then the other goes and there is no more band.
  16. The fact that they spell bass B A S E is enough of a warning for me without even opening the advert.
  17. Nope. You've lost me. 😆
  18. I've never managed to get my hands on one yet but I'd like to give it a go.
  19. A bit unfair to Trump, Musk and Putin I feel.
  20. I knew who / what this thread was about before I even opened it. 😆
  21. I have zero use or desire for a 12 string but I actually think that looks quite smart. I really like the shape.
  22. One a year is enough, but that felt a little too hectic so I've dialled it back a bit to zero.
  23. I really enjoy the chilled vibe of Dock of the Bay, and David Bowie's Heroes.
  24. I wouldn't even pay the postage cost for it if the bass was free. £150 postage!!!!
