  1. Definitely bringing the Brawley 5 and 4 string basses. Rarely seen in the UK, except at Bass Bashes. Will bring the Roland V-bass system fitted on an HB MusicMan-like, if I still have it. This is huge fun and does a pretty good impersonation of many other basses in a live mix. It's going up for sale next week though.
  2. Sacrilege! Schisms and wars have been started over less.
  3. This is a great build to follow. I understand the woodwork, after that makes almost no sense, but it's clearly going to very good indeed. 😎
  4. Tim Minchin, Birmingham Symphony Hall, July 9th. Should be good fun. Spare ticket going if anyone's interested- see the Recycling forum.
  5. Obviously I'm not giving away Tim Minchin himself, but I do have a ticket for his show going spare. E-ticket so meet at the venue.
  6. Joanne Shaw Taylor is fabulous in concert! I've seen her twice in Birmingham UK. She's playing Wolverhampton in September, so I should try to get tickets.
  7. We have a periodic debate about The Piano on stage. It's large, awkward, and doesn't sound as good in the mix as the keyboard which was bought with piano-weighted keys etc etc. However one lady will only play the piano and not the keys, we host music exams who require a piano, and for small funerals where a piano is enough then we don't need a sound tech. So it's still on the stage.
  8. Only 2 according to your profile. Welcome aboard. Post a Hello/ Hi on the introductions forum, and reply to a few threads. Just join in generally. Then all of a sudden you'll have thousands of posts of random rubbish and no friends in real life other than those you meet at bass bashes. And if you stray into the Marketplace then you'll also have no money and a reputation for meeting strange men and women in supermarket car parks up and down the country. Don't ask how I know... 😅
  9. New album dropped on Friday, only just seen it. Fave track so far. "Hip Hip Hooray! It's Record Store Day So get yourself a second mortgage!"
  10. After all that I've just been given a spare Designacable speaker lead, so no need to solder my own after all.
  11. So after how many generations/years in the UK does a tree/plant/animal become a native species, assuming a wild population? Not a political statement or loaded question, just curious.

    https://guitar.com/news/industry-news/pmt-placed-into-administration/ Another news link. PMT in Brum were generally OK, the bass players were always helpful, and we've bought a bit over the years. Sad times for the staff. Still have Guitar Guitar and Fair Deal Music in town (plus Hobgoblin for those times when 19 strings just aren't enough.)
  14. I have spent the last few posts wondering why punk bands were playing a Donald Fagen song. Off to Spotify to find that UK Subs also have a song of that name - which makes a lot more sense 😄 @mikebass456 - a tenner if you open your set with this one:
