  1. He was, genuinely, a gynaecologist.
  2. When I went it was more like a huge, surreal mediaeval fair. Due to over-indulgence I can't remember much else beyond the Mutoid Waste Company, Hank Wangford and Richard Thompson.
  3. I thought that about Neil Young. I was wrong .

  5. From Cybus Industries? Watch it... you could get upgraded.
  6. Pair of side cutters. That's the best mains detector. They make a flash, a bang and a cloud of smoke to let you know a cable is live. And develop a neat notch to provide a permanent record.
  7. My tiny little PJB C2 handles a low B with aplomb. It just isn't very loud. Spilling .
  8. So what you are saying is "ability to drive 2 ohms is not a necessity". Problem solved. Nothing to see here. You can all go home now.
  9. Gemnjus not helpful. "The concept of "terminal velocity" as it applies to a bass guitar is not a standard measurement or a practical consideration. Terminal velocity usually refers to the constant speed that a free-falling object eventually reaches when the force of gravity is balanced by air resistance. While a bass guitar dropped from a height would experience this, it's not a meaningful comparison between a Precision Bass and a Jazz Bass. The key differences between these two basses are their neck profiles, pickup configurations, and tonal characteristics, not their aerodynamic properties. "
  10. It seems Olivia Rodriguez hate chanting supreme court judges has no legal consequences, which seems oddly unbalanced.
  11. The Guardian was impressed, although the review was largely gibberish. "The 1975 at Glastonbury review – amid the irony, ego and pints of Guinness, this is a world-class band Perhaps joking, or perhaps not, Matty Healy pronounces himself ‘the greatest songwriter of my generation’ – and that’s only a slightly ridiculous statement"
  12. Mark and Lard? They used to be my soundtrack for going to sleep in the early 90s! You could hear people singing along to Neil Young's acoustic tracks.
  13. Strangely they watched the music as if bludgeoned into silence, but there was a roar of appreciation and hand waving at the end of each song.
  14. All those poor kids not realising they are being cunningly subverted into hearing proper music.
  15. Performer diddled with for half an hour, then put into it's case for the first time in a long time (I had to repair the handle, and it's few outings in the last ten years have been in a jazz bass case).
  16. One says 'Ban Flags'.
  17. I'm sure it will match the description, just worrying that a business of the stature of Fender can't get the right pictures on an Amazon listing...
  18. Checks date... nearer 50! We're getting old...
  19. Anyone with half a brain shojld be able to see the L and N pins won't go fully home until the pencil is removed. No pearl clutching required.
  20. It's a bit worrying that two of the three photos show a six-string Telecaster neck...
  21. Let me fix that for you 😁
  22. Strange how some people keep their voice - Neil Young for one but Arthur Brown is another.
  23. I wouldn't normally post anything off TB here, but this comment on someone's TE acquisition is too good not to quote: "my other equipment has started to orbit it it's so heavy"
  24. Finally found Gary Numan's set. Bloody awesome. Sound issues I read about seem to have been addressed with a bit of post-production.
