  1. Jilted John was John Shuttleworth = Graham Fellowes.
  2. I had to fight to do chemistry, physics and biology at A-level! As 2 or 3 of us wanted it they let us do it. This was in a huge school!
  3. I remember my daughter playing me that around the time.
  4. Not helped by the BBC always focusing on the changes or differences and not producing and updating a single, consistent guide.
  5. That's one description of it ๐Ÿ™‚
  6. Papa Was a Rolling Stone - I can still only play it by counting and concentrating very hard ๐Ÿ˜ž
  7. It's well proven that repeating mistakes is bad, always take a break if this happens. Changing something about how you are playing helps too, so try the rhythm on a different melody, speed up or down, play the melody to a different rhythm or play in a different position. These halpcement the bits that stay the same. Also, sleeping on it is good, you may well come back and find it easier because the practice has had a chance to 'fix' in your longer term memory.
  8. Swapping to a different instrument, as long as it is reasonably well set up. Also, my little Orange Crush 25 which always sounds great, while my big amps need more tweaking to get a great sound out of them.
  9. Who needs a bass player anyway...?
  10. That's Wolver'ampton that is, maybee Darlo. Speak like that in Dudley and they'll send you packing ๐Ÿ˜‰
  11. I know what you need... a do.... ......
  12. Keep your filthy paws off my fairy cake!
  13. I suspect it's way more complex than that ๐Ÿ™‚ Does anyone here have access to a Finite Element Analysis program...
  14. Naturally not to be confused with a Godzuki.
  15. Because it's a Gadzooka! ๐Ÿ™‚
  16. Now that's how to get paid :-) Blue.
  17. You can 'parse' FRFR in different ways. Full range, flat response - it has a 'full range' (whatever that is) and a flat response. Full range flat response - the flat response is across its full range, which goes without saying for hifi speakers usually defined as response within +/- 3db across the full range. Of course the 'full range' for hifi speakers is typically defined as being between the two -3dB points, but the point is there are no unexpected peaks or troughs. Even if a speaker is 'FR,FR' it's clear that because of physics the 'range' still has to have limits, however broad it is, and there doesn't seem to be a standard to define what that is.
  18. I thought they were just texture tiles...
  19. Morrisons does tend to play a 'classic rock/pop' playlist
  20. Reminds me... we had a 6th form concert, first live band I ever saw. The played originals and they weren't sh1te! All of them in the sixth form. They even brought out a single I've still got and the web remembers them...
  21. These Zevon songs are definitely up there with 'Right Said Fred' and 'Shadduppa-you-face' in the top-100 novelty songs.
  22. Sorry to be boring but... Clearly someone putting huge thought and effort into making a 'different'' bass. But they choose a naff bridge height adjustment that can only be done in half-steps of a relatively coarse (looks like M5 or even M6) thread.
  23. Ken Russel? Eisenstien? I had no idea Magic Roundabout was so highbrow when I was a kid ๐Ÿ™‚
  24. Plus he's clearly playing from memory. A real musician would be sight reading.
