  1. Ah so its not closed completely. Thats good to hear. There's far too many venues closing down lately. Soon there won't be many places left to play
  2. [quote name='Buzz' post='381964' date='Jan 16 2009, 01:03 AM']As for Trujillo, good bass player, I loathe the tone he keeps using with Metallica from all the live videos I've seen, but I reckon he's a good thing for 'tallica, the band have been interviewed a number of times saying he's had a fair bit of creative input on Death Magnetic, hopefully he continues to do so, you never know, they might have one or two corkers left in them with help from Trujillo.[/quote] I love the tone that Trujillo gets, I'm striving to get that valve type overdriven growl for my recordings... oh well no accounting for taste! Oh and Lars Ulrich is a complete tosser. How James Hetfield hasn't drop-kicked him into oblivion by now is a complete mystery. If that was me, I'd have spanked him so hard his grandchildren would have felt it.
  3. [quote name='16Again' post='381913' date='Jan 15 2009, 11:41 PM']Mackie from Blitz was a big influence to me and Gary MacCormack of The Exploited. [url="http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=FoqG2wQ5PV4"]http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=FoqG2wQ5PV4[/url][/quote] Troops of Tomorrow was one of my favourite albums back in the day. I still have UK82 on my iPod and listen to it regularly. Blitz were another brilliant band. Very underrated. One of my favourites: [url="http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=xlAS88lUulM&feature=related"]http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=xlAS88lUulM&...feature=related[/url]
  4. If you like the sound of an Ampeg, and want a Sansamp - this could be the thing for you... [url="http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Xr8kdWpB3U4"]http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Xr8kdWpB3U4[/url]
  5. Boss used to say the same thing - making out their electricity is different from everyone elses electricity :wacko:
  6. Are there 2 rock cafes? This one was the Rock Cafe 2000 which is on an industrial estate.
  7. [quote name='16Again' post='381872' date='Jan 15 2009, 11:06 PM']Tube disasters by Flux was my first bassline, along with El salvador by The Insane.[/quote] Blimey, El salvador by The Insane now there's a blast from the past.
  8. If these are anywhere near as good as the Kent Armstrong Precision Hot Vintage pickup then 45 sheets is a steal.
  9. Who in their right mind would buy a hunk of crap like that???
  10. Hello mate, been to your neck of the woods a while back. We played the Rock Cafe 2000 there back in January last year.
  11. [url="http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Jxw2QsoDX7E"]http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Jxw2QsoDX7E[/url] I think I'd sh*t in my knickers if someone offered me $1,000,000....

  13. Bacchus make some fantastic basses. The quality is top notch, Japanese guitar making at its best.
  14. [quote name='waynepunkdude' post='380001' date='Jan 14 2009, 09:39 AM']If it wasn't fretless my missus wouldn't be getting her Wii.[/quote] Ha! My missus has got one of them. I tried the boxing game. Nearly had a f***ing coronary after one round. f*** that for a game of soldiers. Guitar Hero is pony as well.
  15. The best guitar for the money out there that I've tried is the Washburn Idol. I own 4 of them and they are the dogs. I think I've found my perfect guitar.

  17. Price is ridiculous. You could get a lot better for that price, even a custom job with select woods. You're just paying for the name on that thing as is the case with most of the stuff Gibson do nowadays. Has nobody told Fender there's a recession on.
  18. [quote name='The Funk' post='379109' date='Jan 13 2009, 03:03 PM']Does he listen to it backwards and then kill himself afterwards? I was going to say I'm quite familiar with Rob Halford but I didn't want anyone to get the wrong idea. [/quote] LOL! Yeah, apparently if you play their music backwards you can hear the words "Do It". I don't know which is funnier, the people who claimed that this was actually a valid reason to go court over this or the courts for taking the claim seriously - only in America! LOL!
  19. The very first proper bass I ever owned. They're great. I had the really early one without the bird logo on the headstock. Made in the Matsumoko factory. They are great - the only drawback is they eat batteries but the sound they produce compensates for this.
  20. I was going to say, that Geezer used to use BC Rich basses. Never played one meself though.
  21. [quote name='geilerbass' post='378636' date='Jan 13 2009, 09:13 AM']If you ain't got the balls to take it, you can leave the hall...[/quote] I saw the UK Subs at the weekend... now that was scary!
  22. Never owned a Tele - would never want to either...
  23. [quote name='The Funk' post='378971' date='Jan 13 2009, 01:23 PM']It'd be a bit weird if his favourite music in the world to listen to was his own - and even if that was true, it'd come across as obnoxiously arrogant to say so in public![/quote] You obviously haven't heard of Rob Halford of Judas Priest - he only listens to his own band's music.
  24. If you're in East London or Essex then this bloke right here does a great job: [url="http://www.martinsguitars.co.uk/index.html"]http://www.martinsguitars.co.uk/index.html[/url] He's a bass player too!
  25. [quote name='Paul Cooke' post='378598' date='Jan 13 2009, 07:46 AM']and I've got the gas for a Telecaster Guitar as a result... Picked up my daughter's Encore electric guitar over the break and I've been playing it more than my basses... I've had so much fun going back to stuff I used to do... power chords, blues licks... It's so much easier now having been playing bass... I now know where the notes are and what I'm doing rather than just blindly repeating licks out of a guitar magazine... I can come up with my own and they sound good as well... [/quote] Thats how I started 3 years ago. I know play guitar in two bands. Still looking for a band to play bass in !
