Count Bassy

If only it didn't have that one string missing.

Why not just put a CD on and everyone go to the pub?

Eden bass amps were generic stinky poo. Made from the common solid state components available, Eden was a sterile, hard surface typical transistor design. NOTHING special in any way.  Eden failed not only because "NON" bass company Marshall had the bad idea to acquire them, but because their designs were basic , uninteresting, and hyped far beyond performance. With no organic appeal and a user base of jazzbos and weekend warriors, Eden was never embraced by the Pro bassists.

Good riddance.

Come on man. Spit it out. Tell us what you really think!

I belive it makes a very Hardy fretboard.

I wouldn't mind so much, but just two hours earlier I'd asked @gary mac if there was anything to watch out for at this pub and did he warn me?

 

😂

 

 

Well, I didn't know that Johnny Vegas played drums!

Given the reason it was made and the time it took to put the whole thing together (music and video produced the same day), I can overlook this one.

Me too. You beat me to it.

Yeah, he plays well, with good technique and he sounds musically mature 

Plenty of fluency, feel and dynamics going on during this piece as well. 

(that goes for Michael Manring as well...)

 

Just my opinion, of course, but, I can't hear any 'twaddle'.

 

 

I guess that when I said twaddle I meant that i just find that sort of thing leaves me totally cold, same goes for Michael Manring's stuff.

More of a Norman Watt-Roy type myself (and no I can't play that either).

All very clever, but twaddle. And no, I couldn't do it.

Peter Gunn, if you're prpared to go above the 5th fret!

Lovely

WHy does a-r-s-e get chaged to Franch when there is a perfectly good english word it could be changed to.

However Kick up the bottom (or derriere) does not quite convey the same meaning as "kick up the A-r-s-e"

A good kick up the derrière should stop him.

Four Way Street is one of my favourite albums. Love the transition from "Find the Cost of Freedom" into "Ohio".

Lets face it, if it wasn't for the drummer that band would be absolutely nothing.

This chap agrees with you, @Woodinblack 

 

Sorry, just couldn't listen to that.

Bastardized Ibanez?

smoking affects them and others with passive smoke.

 

Seatbelts save them and someone for example in front of them if you are in the back seat as you may cannonball against them causing an injury to another passenger, or if you are ejected from the car this causing another accident.

 

vaccines are slightly different.

As I read your post it seems to me that, from your own comparison, both seat belts and smoking are actually very similar to not having the vaccine. In each case you are putting others peoples' lives at risk.

Event security couldn't keep the punters in their seats, which made a mockery of being in the front row. A shambles. Won't ever bother with this kind of gig ever again

but Culture Club were fabulous, they played songs that I'd forgotten how much I loved.

What where you thinking of, sitting down at a 'rock' concert in the first place?

I note the the photos seem carefully framed to not show any bend in the neck!

Careful. Someone will accuse you of being guitaristist.

Though, if you disagree with guitarism, you could always become a guitarististist

"I just died in your arms" must really screw up people who have lost arms. 🙄

or those who have died!!!

Ther are plenty of songs about murder and revenge, even before you go into folk songs:

I shot the sherrif

Bad like Jesse James

Hey joe,

Folsom Prison Blues.

Delilah

etc etc etc.

I don't think any of those are actually glorifying or condoning murder. They are simply telling a story.

IMHO making a big fuss about some song lyrics  just detracts from the real issues in the world.
