  1. You won't need a post it note in your classifieds.
  2. Kinda, not really. The community band I play in doesn't pay the members but it makes some decent money on paid gigs that is spent on travelling to do free festivals. I wind up not out of pocket except for some food and drink.
  3. It's pretty standard that a first post on signing up to a forum is checked that it smells of real person interested in the forum. The main purpose is adding a gateway against spammers but scammers will get weeded out also.
  4. That's a good start.
  5. The Rumble 100V3 is super loud for its size. I used one on a festival gig and I thought it was DI'd but turned out to be the only thing filling the room for jazz orchestras. The weight of it would suggest a toy but it's a real thing. I never go without a High Pass Filter aka HPF. It stops things from going boom.
  6. Yes. Carve up a dual wall cardboard shipping box or twin boxes with double sided tape. Wrap in duct tape if concerned about fluids on stage. 5 quid worth of tape max.
  7. I thought Elf power was Peavey homegrown.
  8. Maybe I was just lucky that nearly everyone played the songs very much the same as the record as far as chord progressions went and I have a good ear. Those songs were standards 20 years ago when I was jamming and I played along dropping the odd clanger. Trains wrecked only with the odd noncompetent given the mic. If you are slated for backing folks ahead of time one would hope they have a handle on it. Better charge up your phone and have the songs on repeat all day.
  9. When I was stepping up to reading for my jazz band the MD said pretty much that with far fewer words. If I paraphrase him further, "Never Stop".
  10. The article claims they allege he stole royalty cash that would have gone to legitimate artists. I have no idea if that is true or not.
  11. Have you tried a Google image search? What's so special about it?
  12. To the extent that druggies think everything sounds amazeballs that implies I sound amazeballs as the result of drugs.
  13. Pad the output down.
  14. If it is just a custom colour baffle you want you could get a sheet of sign vinyl and wrap it once you decide to claim it. Should you change your mind the vinyl can be removed for sale.
  15. Blame pub bands. If they hadn't been pumping out the Oasis bangers all these years everyone would have forgotten all about Oasis.
  16. No idea. Probably not. It's an android. This is the only forum that does it.
  17. Kids today seem rather compliant to directions, so easily achieved. They don't have any problem giving them up for the duration of their school day, where schools make it that way.
  18. If it hasn't got 4/4 is isn't disco. "Bring it Back" is kinda disco. Also 4/4 with a bass groove heavy on swung triplets over 2 beats. Maybe what the OP was thinking of?
  19. Every time. I hit the next page button at bottom of current page. It opens up at the bottom of the next page!
  20. What's the feel on 2/2?
  21. Fairytale of New York is 6/8. That goes to show that 6/8 is not disco. It's a jig. The beat is 2. 12/8 is 4 beats to a bar. 4 beats of 3 isn't very 'disco' but at least it is 4 on the floor Guitarists need to get over having to make up bullshit time signatures to lose their triplets.
  22. You should get that seen to with a nerve conduction study to confirm and most likely an MRI so see if there is anything to be done about helping the nerve to regrow.
  23. The cops need calling to get the CCTV of you dropping it off.
  24. On the other side of the pond they liked to say it's impossible to gig with one. Not that they ever tried. Actual gig reports were scorned!
  25. You can raise hell with a big cab too.
