  1. No they just stand up. Then the people behind them have to stand up to see, and so and and so on. I would never go to a gig unless it's seated, due to a back problem which means I can't stand for long periods of time. Then you get some bell end standing and the whole arena has to stand. Which makes having a seat pointless. Pretty much the reason I haven't been to a large gig for over a decade.
  2. More zombies popping up on here lately than on The Walking Dead.
  3. Is this thread any good for metal?
  4. Will pubs even be a thing in the UK after lockdown? From what I've seen on social media over the past few months it appears that every single person in the UK has built their own "pub" in their back garden shed. All future gigs will now include dodging dog turds and trying not to fall into a koi pond.
  5. Thanks. Glad it's not just me who's never heard of it. 😅
  6. There are still record stores? 😕
  7. Me too. As long as they have some talent, and aren't pushy and in your face. Have at it! I've seen some absolutely amazing street performers over the years. Better than many I've seen in pubs and clubs.
  8. Me too. But it's got to be a straight 4/4
  9. Nope. Never played one. Can't stand the look of them, although there's no arguing with the sound, especially for recording. Closest I've come is a Jaguar PJ.
  10. Pretty good with the head butting though? 😅
  11. You just need to be better at multi tasking. Playing, singing and head butting simultaneously.
  12. That's ok. I've got even less desire to be on the show than on an actual Island. 😅
  13. Keh? What band?
  14. I'm going to watch my first gig for about 18 months this evening. I suppose my band should start making plans to play in public, but if I'm honest, I'm really not that bothered.
  15. I made my own by welding some angle iron to the legs of an old folding chair. It's actually much better than it sounds. 😂
  16. I've never noticed it being particularly loud or problematic. Yes, you can hear it in a quiet room, but no more so than many other amps. Certainly not an issue once you start playing.
  17. Currently an ex demo model going on the bay of fleas for £165! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/284258772640 Or the valve version for £199 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1621-Ex-Demo-BUGERA-BV1001T-/254942985079?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286
  18. Still use mine every week at gigging volume levels for band practice, and have done throughout lockdown. Still think it sounds amazing. Absolutely superb bit of kit at any price. At the price they sell it it's ridiculously good. Never had a single problem with it, and have no intentions of replacing or"upgrading" it. In fact, if and when I've got a bit of spare cash floating around I intend to also buy the valve version.
  19. Extremely narrow. I will only listen to blind, dwarf Mongolian throat singers. It's a niche market.
  20. I use an old laptop bag for my amp. Does the job well enough. The cabs I just treat like new trainers. It's only the first scuff that hurts. After that it's just character.
  21. Funnily enough I just watched this yesterday, and in the blind test I much preferred the sound of the Harley to the Squire.
  22. Nope. Never heard of it. 😆
