Released 30 years ago today...
Nirvana’s “Nevermind,” The Red Hot Chili Peppers’ “Blood, Sugar, Sex, Magik,” The Pixies “Trompe Le Monde” and A Tribe Called Quest’s “The Low End Theory.”
Soundgarden's "Badmotorfinger" was also supposed to be released on this date but was postponed by two weeks due to 'production problems'.

Funniest ones are people watching the BeeGees for the first time and being shocked that they aren’t black.
I was more surprised at the fact that they weren't a group of goats.

Not an attack on you (I know most BC members are quite easily upset!) but the whole idea around reaction videos is just so... I don't know. I think there are much better ways to spend your time than watching those sort of videos.

Reaction videos... *sigh*.

And this leads me to my second point -
Why are US strings so expensive here? DR/La Bella/SIT etc.
It's cheaper for me to order strings from the US even with the high postage costs!

I'm taking a break from music but was thinking of starting up something again next year.
The ads on JMB are beyond depressing...
Guys who I've jammed with still trying to make something work but they're the ones with classic excuses such as:
"£5 is too much for practice."
"My SO/child/dog has had an accident so I can't make it tonight."
"My car needs a lot of petrol and I'm choosing that over practice."
Argh!!!

Don't go into an audition putting yourself or your playing down.
This!
My favourite players are those who are quiet and are humble but they don't put themselves down. I've jammed with some amazing musicians who have zero drama and make being in a band fun.

Love that stack knob!

Fun fact - when John left the band after BSSM, Buckethead auditioned for his spot.

By The Way is a great album too - I don't understand why it gets all the hate. Bar 'Carbron', I think every song is at least good.

Californication is a magnificent album. I sometimes prefer it to BSSM.

Good - because I really enjoyed SA. I wish they made it a single album though...
Here are some highlights:

Aside from Boomers and P flats, why is the GHS catalogue so hard to come by in the UK?

I've had one amp failure in my 20 years of playing.

Can you re-use the original screws in the new straplocks ? Are they too short ?
Dave
Dunlop screws are normally chunkier in width to accommodate for the straplock size.

TBH I just screwed them straight in. If you are concerned then maybe a small needle file just to widen it slightly?
I normally use vaseline to help slide it in.

Finally got around to this and installed the flush mount versions. I used the stock screws that came with the bass to make sure everything was secure.
Ordered some DR Fat Beams too.
