  1. Sell it on a memory stick. With a free t-shirt. 🤣
  2. Are a load of L and XL blokes going to sell your brand? A Web shop where young ladies can buy your stylish t-shirts will spread the message better. Think of the meme where a young lady wearing a Slayer T-Shirt is asked to name one song they play - she replies - Master of Puppets - that's close enough... 😆 Think. What is the merch supposed to do?
  3. Good quality t-shirt and a card machine.
  4. Where are you located? My daughter's boyfriend does screen print. It's expensive but good. The problem is always stock levels and storing. Minimum order quantities, ink costs, etc. How many are you planning on ordering? Lowest I've seen is 30. So you're looking at a few hundred quid. I'd ask the designer to fade the edges to black so it doesn't look like a print on a shirt.
  5. Is there a big change in temperature over night? If it's going sharp it would imply the room is getting very cold.
  6. You don't have a 'page', you have a profile. Facebook isn't great at being clear, possibly to put people off leaving or making and closing multiple pages.
  7. According to my wife I have too many basses. One I use all the time. One I take to gigs as a spare. One that I pulled the frets from in the 90s and is up in the loft and doesn't get played. So technically she is right. 🤣
  8. The only fight I've seen at a gig was when we were packing up after a wedding. Someone was accused of "Nicking the cancer money." It was a second wedding for an older couple and the guests had been donating money instead of gifts. "Why does everyone always accuse me?", swiftly followed by loads of screaming, shouting and hair pulling between to fairly drunk middle aged women. During which another woman appears from a back room with the charity box asing what all the fuss was about. She'd put it away for safe keeping. That and the drummer who was going to punch the entertainments manager at an RBL gig if he didn't stop asking us to stop playing party music (that everyone was dancing to), and play some rock'n'roll. At the end when packing up, people kept coming over and telling us how much better we were than all the usual bands who just played rock'n'roll. Dealing with the public is a thankless task but when the dust settles usually provides some hilarious anecdotes as long as no one is seriously hurt physically or mentally.
  9. That's sexual assault. If a man had done that he'd be in serious trouble.
  10. Never considered ot before but some of the strap and bass combinations are great. Might have to find myself a nice light brown leather one.
  11. I played a dep gig once where the entire communications had been "Don't worry, they're all standards, you'll be fine." 3 hours playing tunes I'd never heard before, let along played before. Luckily the audience didn't notice.
  12. Sweet or salty. Not both. You guys are weird.
  13. That's posh. I usually change my t-shirt in the men's toilets.
  14. She's probably easily the most famous. I doubt there's anyone who hasn't heard of her.
  15. Atari. They haven't bought out a decent console since 1987. Dead in the water.
  16. 11 years on, there's a huge number of apps that will do that and more.
  17. He may have depped for us. 🤣
  18. That's the commercial world for you. As far as I can see with all the Class D amps, they're all pretty much the same. Most people seem to run them flat. Everyone is cutting costs and slimming down lines. There are more boutique amps out there now. Time will tell, but the big players are too big to be taking risks.
  19. School boy error. 🤣
  20. We were looking for a singer for our function band. The guy turned up on time, looked great, sang even better. Knew the songs. The plan was to give him half an hour and then discuss after he'd left. While he was packing down to leave he started telling us all about the numerous fights he'd been in at gigs.
  21. Think we are on a roll with stories about bands and members woes. What's your worst experience auditioning someone for your band?
  22. The singer/keys/songwriter kept writing slow sad songs and didn't like suggestions that the melodies were great but would sound better if they were played more upbeat. Filed under musical differences?
  23. "Cough drop". If you can, fit an inline momentary push mute button so you're not messing around.
  24. I'm led to believe that all the manufactured food we are sold is produced by 5 worldwide companies. Tbh - It would be better to boycott all of them and eat non manufactured food.
