Me too. It does look good, but none of the buttons are 'pressable' Seemed to work OK on an acoustic instument.

Been posted here before but for example the invention of mics/amps for gigs was just intended to make the voice louder. But it actually made crooning possible. It was not demand for crooning which led to mic/amp invention.

For some OTT punk bass lines check out Brian Ritchie on the Violent Femmes first album - e.g Blister in the Sun.

Most Stranglers bass lines.

The Pop Group

Something for half time:

Would need a decent EQ ...........to boost the centre-mids.

Most football managers will tell you the importance of MarkKing😃!

Someone who overplays and is flash, but still delivers the goods? How about Brian Ritchie of the Violent Femmes? (Not sure could play footie for real though...)

In football the stereotype goalie is like the stereotype drummer - the 'loony' of the group. Any bass players who fit that bill?

I've found that writing tab (or even writing lyrics with chrods above) only really if you use a monospaced font. So 4 I's are the same width as 4 W's. I think that comes as default in notepad. See below comparison of Courier and Arial:

Intense rehearsal?

Well done Dad3353! And well done everybody - high standard across the board. Looking forward to the next one...……..

Or apply stickers. Well, I guess not anyway...…….

Depends - are the stickers solid paper or laminate?

New film doc about Poly Styrene of X-Ray Spex......... Sky Arts 9pm Saturday 6th March. From what I gather it's told from the perspective of Poly's daughter Celeste. Really looking forward to this..... one of my heroes!

The way I look at it is that Weller is kind of the genius..... but without Foxton (and to a lesser extent Buckler) bringing the songs to life he'd be an unheard-of genius.

For pedals that store different settings ( especially in banks) : How easy is it to change from one setting to another? Is it a smooth transition sound-wise? Preferably Demonstrate the above rather than tell.

I've had a bit of luck in that area. I always wanted to do either DK's HIC or California Uber Alles with my current band, but no luck. But then I joined a side band and they had HIC already in the set.👍 I suggest a lot of songs to my main band which don't get accepted (and some that do). I didn't hold up much hope when I suggested Goo Goo Muck by the Cramps.... but I played it them and they said yes!👍 (Love Bikini Girls and the whole Stay Sick album too) We do Public Image in both bands.... but I'd love to do a track from Metal Box . Someone in the audience shouted out for Death Disco once, so you never know!

Over the last couple of weeks I've been listening to the music of Rachel Aggs. I was first aware of her a couple of years ago when her band Trash Kit played at a small local venue and I went to see them on the off chance. They were great. In the last couple of weeks I have bought an album by 'Shopping' and realised that Rachel is in them too. And youtube has shown me that she is also in Sacred Paws - another band who I have heard and liked. She must be pretty busy! Just downloaded the Sacred Paws album - "Strike a Match" - here's the title track.

I heard it there too. I made a mental note to listen to it properly later - without the overlayed story etc (no complaints, I like the feature). Of course, I promptly forgot to do so! So thanks for posting!

Interesting analysis. Do you have an overall percentage split between bass and player?

Prince??!! If you're gonna cheat, cheat big !

Well, let's not discourage that !
