Roobarb and custard theme tune. For the dvd box set I bought, the intro is played on DB as a walking line. Super cool.

Just saw Green Day at Wembley last night, my daughter grew up listening to them and got us tickets. A masterclass in how to do a big gig. At first I thought it would be a good gig but shame it's not a more intimate venue but as it turns out they're masters of the big crowd it felt good that we shared the music with so many people. And I have to say the playing was faultless and such energy consistently delivered over 2 and a half hours was impressive. Also, Maid of Ace kicked off the afternoon and I'm definitely a new fan.

Just got an email from Doc Llyod to say they have 25 death rays available online. I already have one but anyone want one now is your chance. Interesting compressor, the side chain is logarithmic... oh and it looks good on your pedal board!

The second clip sounds like a robot duck trapped down a deep well!

Many moons ago I had lessons with Hubbard. The main thing I took away was the importance of correct fingers/hand/wrist/arm/body posture to ensure the mechanics of your playing doesn’t inhibit you. I think this is important and not necessary something that is easy to learn naturally but sets you up for a life time of playing. After that, it’s what inspires you… always learn songs you like and delve into what inspires you.

What's with the bass drum reso head?!

When I'm back in the UK (which is not often) I live just around the corner from McCathy's. It's changed hands over the years and at one stage it was quite rough..... what's it like now? PS Just down the side street to thew place, there are two cracking Indian restaurants that are worth visiting... Rose of India and Golden Curry.... if you like curries that is.

Well, for a tip on how to sound like the Eagles check out Wings of Pegasus on YouTube..... and prepared to be dismayed!

Short scale, light and in a nice red.... tempted to get one myself actually. PS just listened to the sound samples on the Thomann site.... has a really good tone. Even more tempted now!

Well, maybe there’s a 4th category…. how many Hendrix tributes do you find?! The main reason is that even I can play the chords but I can’t sound like Jimi… but our guitarist can, even if he is right handed! My point being not just Hendrix but anyone who has the gift where the talent to sound like someone is key, so theatrics are a bonus but not essential.

Well… this thread has convinced me. I’ve told our guitarist in our Hendrix tribute that at the next gig he has to play left handed… after all, he only has to turn the guitar around the other way!

Get it done in a 'burst' salmon pink! -

So, silly example (but relevant I think), I acquired an old 60s Vespa last year and had it restored. Originally it was black/white but I thought it boring, so with no regard to originality I painted it orange and yellow (b@llocks to it I thought, I just wanted it my fav colours). So, in answer to what colour, I would say whatever is your fav finish. Sunburst obviously a classic…. Or maybe salmon pink so it stands out from the crowd. -
Yep, in order to keep the audience attention we now do gigs with three bands... a Hendrix tribute, a Jimmy Smith tribute and a soul/blues cover band. The fact all three bands have the same musicians in them is just a coincidence. If we put on different wigs for each set I reckon we could charge management 3 times!

I'm still in shock that a Jaco tribute has been fretted!! If you listen really hard you can hear Jaco turning in his grave! I'm sure it plays well though, but it should at that price!

Miracle of modern science, here’s hoping your rhythm guitarist is good for Friday…. and beyond!

The routing shouldn't be too difficult. Plug all your sources direct into the desk, then you can use the routing options to make use of the six aux outputs for the foh feeds, and use the ultranet for monitoring. Using the ultranet requires buying the P16-M units but that does mean you get hardware control over your personal monitor mix and frees up the 6 aux outputs for dedicated foh feeds.
