I asked for any more information and got "It has a lyric about a pillow and head I think. And it’s sort of a party song" It must be something pretty well known because she doesn't listen to much other than what's on Heart FM.

All good suggestions, but apparently not the song she has in mind. I suspect the gorilla is a red herring and we should think about countries.

So here's a bizzare question, from one of my twenty-something friends, who isn't really into music: "Do you know a song that's about a country or has a country in the title but I'm sure it's also about a monkey/gorilla...I can't for the life of me remember the song or tune But it's in the same vibe of song as Sweet Home Alabama or I Would walk 5000 miles" Any suggestions welcome, as I'm stumped! 😁 ===== Answered on page 2 =====

Same joke in Birmingham last week, but after the first song when Nick asked for no flash photography as it hurt the bass player's delicate eyes. Good fun live, and I think they quite enjoy ribbing each other on stage. Shame they didn't play Green in the Colour.

I thought he was long dead - then realised I was confusing Albert Lee with Albert Collins. 🤦‍♂️

Great hymn that! Are you sure it's 9/8? I have been singing it, and end up in 6/8 or 12/8. But then my sense of timing and rhythm is pretty carp!

Or as the self service machines at Tesco might say: "Unexpected Trombonist in the Worship Area "

I had a Christmas Eve service once when an unexpected trombonist turned up.

There seem to be lots of manufactures making very similar looking earbuds with various Z10 designations, or the same factory churning out the same thing at different price points. There are also variations with the number of drivers. I know the Linsoul ones were recommended, if anyone has a variant it would be good to know how they perform.

I have an old EBS session 60 for use at home, which is made with the back corner chopped out so it can tilt back. If one day I need to buy a gigging amp then I shall definitely pinch the flat pack idea.

No However if you do buy tickets for the tour then they don't count. Unless you are also using her PA in which case it's in the signal chain so it's a Tier 2 fail.

Very neat. 👍 How big is the stand? It looks quite small, and I'm thinking if it was too small then the cab would just tilt over backwards as the centre of gravity must be near but above the middle of the speaker

Reform School? Welcome aboard @RobD !

Welcome aboard! You'll get used to the feeble attempts at humour. Or they will drive you mad and you'll go senile and join in. That's what happened to me. It could be worse: visit Talkbass where their idea of humour is to not actually light the flamethrower.

Does anyone other than @rwillett and @SamIAm have the slightest idea what language they are talking? A truly stunning bass though - I'm looking forward to when Rob takes orders, as I have a VBASS with a GK-B hex pickup setup that I want to permanently install in a bass, and this would absolutely look the biz!

Awesome, as always!

Never heard of the Culture novels. If I were to read one, what should it be?

The Millennium Falcon, edge on?

A bit late for this suggestion, but could you make the additional frets from a different coloured wire? It's going to be great when you sell it with the line "cutaway body, access to the 38th fret"

Very nice indeed.

Welcome aboard!

Welcome aboard, what brings you to BassChat? Just remember- You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave. 😉

The best of plus the last two albums should do you. Foo Fighters are one of those bands I admire more than I actually listen to, but I bet they are one hell of a live act.

Duplicate Post. As in this was a duplicate post, not a band called Duplicate Post.
