Me: "This one's in E Flat Minor"
Guitarist: "You sure? I thought it was D Sharp"

That's not as bad as "shall we change this to E#" it really happened, although to be fair he did realise what he'd said straight away

GET OUT!!

marvellous, there's always room for a bit of abuse in punk rock, (it is the Toy Dolls version we do) and not taking yourself too seriously

I must confess that not only have I done it, I chose it. However this is the version we did...

"And if I haiver whatever the f*ck that means", is my favourite alteration.

I'm with you on this song, I bleeding hate it (you know how bad a bassline it has) its always 'wheeled out' to the drunken masses at the end of the nite. I have point blank refused to play despite being nagged by the rest of the band.

afraid I can't agree with you, maybe you're being a bit snobby?, 500 miles is a great simple singalong song to do as an encore, punked up of course, send the crowd home happy they'll come again, and lets face we all love a gig where we get an audience reaction, or should do. We do Nellie the Elephant as well

latest word is they've sorted things out and it's staying open

bit of deja vu going on here

Just scroll down - the item's still there.

Cheers, obvious huh, feel a bit of a pratt now

Maybe there's a reworking there... "Old-age creaks so hard to beat...gut's so big I can't see my feet"

Being the other side of fifty, I always feel a bit of a buffoon playing Teenage Kicks.

Why, do you stop w***ing when you get to 50?

anybody know how I can stop 'bidding has ended ' items going onto another page after about a second?

there's been quite a few threads about this amp, concensous seems to be great sounding amps very good value for money but early ones did have QC issues, as did mine, but once they were sorted I had no trouble at all, apart from the covering rips rather easily.

I've got a Marshall MB 4210 which I use with a 1 x 15 ext cab, it's LOUD, never got anywhere near full volume,

+1 with the off the net tabs warning.
don't know if any one else has tried this, a bit of software my bass teacher put me onto called the amazing slow downer,
really useful for working stuff out. as the name suggests you can slowdown music without changing the pitch,
you can try it for free too.
[/quote]
you can do the same with audacity

there is one major flaw with MIM P's, they don't make cack handed ones, bastards

be very wary of tabs off the net, some of them are way out, in fact I very rarely find one that doesn't need a bit of tinkering, either it's wrong or I cant play it and have to simplify it, i.e. cheat

bloody hell, I must be a sh*t bass player if monkey man is considered easy to play

[quote name='dave_bass5' timestamp='1331807240' post='1579081']
I've always thought the same. We can here a difference when we play them but in a mix its sometimes impossible to tell, which to me means it doesn't really matter.
[/quote]

IMO it matters live, I think a P cuts through the mix better, probably because as someone mentioned earlier the P is more middy (is that a word or have I just invented it?)

Beatles, I'm still trying to play the bass line to I saw her standing there and failing to get anywhere near the right speed, and he sings too! bastard

how's it go? I haven't had time to pick up my guitar since last week

A conversation betwixt myself and my ex-band mates:

[i]Me: I actually don't mind hard auto tune if used creatively and as a vocal effect.[/i]

[i]Band: You mean like that Cher song?[/i]

[i]Me: Cher? Is that the best you can do? A 14 year old Cher song? Have you not heard of Kanye West, Daft Punk, Black Eyed Peas, T-Pain?[/i]

Cue five very blank faces.

make that 6 blank faces

whenever I've done an audition, which hasn't been very often, a list of 2 or 3 songs is agreed on so everybody is prepared, this also sorts out the time wasters, the comment "I've not had time to look at them, I'll just wing it" is not a sign of someone who is going to be committed

Elixir nanowebs, they cost more but last ages, in fact the last time I changed a set, after about a year, I could hardly tell any difference, be careful when fitting them though, it's easy to damage the coating so they start shedding their 'skin' quickly, although it doesn't seem to alter the sound, just looks a mess

I had a Squire P once, it was crap, that's the price you pay for being cack handed, it's hard to try before you buy
