Instagram and other social media stuff
PaulWarning replied to uk_lefty's topic in General Discussion
I used to do a blog, like you kept it light hearted, not many people were reading it, just friends really, so I stopped doing it. Most of our fans are old farts like us, so we just stick to Facebook, it seems to cover all the bases, (no pun intended) where as Instagram and TikTok seem to attract a younger crowd and don't do any more than you can do on Facebook as far as I can see, but maybe I'm missing something -
sounds like he's using heavy fuzz mixed in with a clean signal, one of the Zoom multi effects might do the job

I was going to try and learn right handed, I found an encore bass left out by some bins which wasn't/isn't to bad action wise, but after a couple of attempts I decided it was just to much trouble and I can do some things right handed
-
I have enough trouble playing only left handed 🙂, John Otway plays both left and right handed guitar https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=358951982112502

just thought of two more that make me change radio channels, John Miles - Music and Andrew Gold - Lonely Boy

I use DR's as well, I used to get them from the States but they don't seem much cheaper these days and not many suppliers seem to keen to avoid custom charges like they used too, I bought my last set off Amazon UK for about £32, I've just checked and prices do seem to have gone through the roof, here and the USA, £43 from Amazon, £38 from Thomann are the cheapest I could find When I need some I just Google DR neon green bass strings and get them from whoever is cheapest They do last a long time though, I probably buy about 1 set a year

this is exactly how it worked for the band I'm in, after 2 members left we agreed a value for the PA and me and the singer paid them for their share, any repairs come out of band funds, of course in relies on people being reasonable about it, some folk aren't
-
exactly the same for me the only time I've really liked Smith songs was when Sandie Shaw did them
-
Horse with no name, every time I hear the line "cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain" I think why is 'for' in there? makes no sense, totally wrong, just sing the line without it.
-
I don't really see the problem, if you think Debbie Harry is past it, or anybody else, don't go and watch them, if enough people do this then they'll retire
-
I quoted the wrong post should've been @Doctor J's
-
there's a very similar conversation going on in the Glastonbury 2023 thread,
-
to state the bleedin obvious, it's a lot different being there than watching it at home, being there the atmosphere has a lot bigger impact than sitting at home watching it on TV
-
surprised at the criticism of Glen Matlock, he was so low in the mix as to be nearly inaudible even through my 15" PA speakers, or maybe this was on purpose because he wasn't very good, I really couldn't tell, same with Tony James in Generation Sex's set, the only time I heard the bass well was in Elton John's set, on the ones I listened too anyway, which I admit wasn't many
-
yes his voice sounded good but his dictation was as bad as ever, not a massive fan, so not that familiar with the words, without subtitles I wouldn't have had a clue what half of them were
-
It was more to do with the mix than the Stingray, a Precision would have sounded just as good with that mix, once again a lot of performances suffered because of rubbish sound engineers, on TV at any rate
-
Cat Stevens was exactly the same, as he proved when he had footage of him singing when he was young, and he's 74 now. Just watched Blondie, telephone was dodgy but I'd rather have them there a bit the worse for age than not at all
-
I'm not convinced that our website is value for money, but the singer loves the perceived kudos of having one and he runs it (the band pays) so it's not worth the aggro of having an argument about it, I don't understand tictok but it seems to have traction, I'll have to investigate

Paul Mc and Wings - Silly Love Songs live
PaulWarning replied to NikNik's topic in General Discussion
I had to sort out some live tracks for the band I'm in, I just cut and pasted bits from other parts of the song where we hadn't made a mistake, no over dubbing, as such, required -
the price will drop when the people with enough cash not to care have bought one
-
if you're using Google Chrome to generate a new password yes, if you've got sync turned on, well mine does
-
I just use google suggestions, seems to work well.
-
we all give our email address out all the time for legitimate reasons, well I do, an email address by itself is no problem (apart from unwanted emails) it's the passwords that go with them
-
that was the gist of the one I got as well, I knew it wasn't true, I've got a cover over my camera lens 🤣
