  1. I'll see how it goes, if it doesn't do what I want, I'll splash out on a Two Notes Revolt.
  2. I've just bought one based on your recommendation. £25 for a used one, can't go wrong for that. I bought my daughter a couple Behringer pedals and they really sound great. The tube screamer clone sounds identical to an Ibanez tube screamer.
  3. Trump was rambling in a press conference yesterday about how all other countries are being horrible to America now. No s**t Donny, you can't start a trade war with the entire world (except Rusdia) and expect them to just roll over and take it. He's the sort of person who'd kick a dog and think he's the victim when it bites him back.
  4. Brown Rain - Prince
  5. Bill Oddie is our No.1 fan - Raised by Owls Double points surely?
  6. Lesbian seagull - Food Pyramid
  7. You don't understand. This is all the hangover from Bidens policies. Obama and the Clinton's run the stock exchange and made it crash. That's how the Trump cult see it
  8. Vance can't pull off what Trump can. He'll be taken out by a crazy with a gun as soon as the conspiracy theories inevitably start suggesting Vance killed Trump so he could be president.
  9. Next up is Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs playing at SWX in Bristol. Awesome band in a venue with amazing sound. I've seen them a few times before and they put everything in to their performance, 90 minutes of non stop heavy metal energy until they leave the stage looking exhausted. I look forward to having my face melted
  10. $187,500 in a $380,000,000 jet is a very small percentage
  11. I've been looking for a preamp pedal. A used Sansamp bass driver is barely any cheaper than a new one
  12. That used to be true but now the early design and prototyping for US models is done by Rousch and other automotive R&D companies. The initial concept may come from Europe (we want a 5 seat SUV that looks vaguely like this and costs $40,000) but the concept is turned in to a car in the US. I worked with Rousch on the latest Mustang and a range of Lincolns that didn't get to production.
  13. Phil Campbell and the Bastard Sons in the Cheese and Grain, Frome last night. They played a tribute to Motorhead to celebrate 50 years since the start of the band. With Phil being Motorheads guitarist from 1984 to the end in 2015, he knew exactly how to do it right. I've seen a few Motorhead tributes but none that came close to this. The singer didn't try to sound like Lemmy but did a great job. Trying to sound like another singer never goes well. They played some greatest hits plus some they rarely performed and one Motorhead never played live. The support act, King Creature were great as well, last time i saw them was supporting Motorhead. An excellent night.
  14. Clarkson and he's right. The Mustang uses leaf springs. I've now bought three cars based entirely on Clarksons reviews, they were all excellent (Roomster, Yeti & XFR) and the XFR was as bonkers as described it.
  15. Very true. I drove a 75 Corvette and quickly learned the meaning of the phrase "never meet your heroes". It was good in a straight line as long as the road is smooth. I would honestly say a Mondeo with half the power would be quicker around any race circuit. European supersaloons are basically what muscle cars should have been. M5's E63's and XFR's don't look as cool but certainly drive better than even a new Mustang.
  16. Exactly. It's the processing of the materials that makes up most of the cost. It's not simple stampings and castings like your car.
  17. The America special where they "decorate" each others cars? Or more recently the Grand Tour Scotland special where they demonstrated that a Hillman Imp was faster around a track than an 8 litre American V8 and also that America made worse cars than communists
  18. Range Rover is British engineering and manufacturing owned by Indian investors.
  19. Most American cars don't meet EU regulations while European cars are built to comply with regulations all around the world. American car manufacturers are free to do the same. Chevrolet have actually sold some models in Europe but they were terrible so no one bought them. Jeep do pretty well in Europe and Tesla did do well until recently. Harley Davidson do OK in Europe despite being terrible and expensive.
  20. They're not as stylish as even a Nova but they do have similar paint quality.
  21. Tainted Skies - Tribulation
  22. Tainted love - Gloria Jones
  23. Where's the good upstanding right wing patriots? Why aren't they all buying Teslas? It's mostly lefties who buy EVs while right wingers buy big V8's. Musk should have known that attacking the left was an attack on his customers and would hurt his business but apparently he's a genius.
  24. Exactly. Skills shortages should result in higher wages to attract those skills but instead, employers seem to just make do with under qualified or inexperienced workers and then moan that they're not up to the job. Skills shortages should also mean an increase in training but that's also not happening.
