  1. Gender identity starts with an individual's right to self identify as their gender of choice. Gender is a social construct, society is always changing and members of society have the freedom to build their own gender identity. Stonewall define gender as "A person’s innate sense of being a man, woman, non-binary or another gender". I think Raye is using her platform on national television to support our non-binary friends at a time when they are literally under attack for simply being who they are. More power to her. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gender_identities
  2. I have just used https://lenspeedlogistics.com/ to get a bass shipped a similar distance. Have a search on BC and you will find multiple good testimonials. They charged me £55 + VAT. The bass was sent in a gig bag and then had bubble wrap over the top and arrived in perfect condition. This is higher cost than other shipping methods but I paid more for near total peace of mind and that is what I got. Check the link for their insurance levels.
  3. I am seeing African Head Charge tonight at the Cluny in Newcastle Upon Tyne. This is one of the tour dates that was postponed from February this year. I am expecting to see Don Chandler aka Donstrumental on bass https://m.youtube.com/@donstrumental8905 https://m.facebook.com/AfricanHeadChargeOfficial/
  4. This is from the soundtrack of "The Apple". The notes say that George Clinton was involved in writing the lyrics and arranging it while Wikipedia says "Coby Recht said recording the film's reggae number 'How To Be a Master' was complicated due to actual Jamaican musicians performing on the song and not being able to 'read the charts' that were in English." Bass line is legit.
  5. You asked and Martin Mull answered.
  6. I thought the second one was maybe the original that this was based on but it turns out it isn't. It is used as the theme tune for a well known US TV show
  7. There is a recent thread of two man with a van operations that will pick up and deliver for around £60. Both came with good recommendations from board members. Maybe that is an option. https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/480215-courier-alternative-man-n-van/
  8. I don't trust anything that will not give me the option to opt out. I don't trust anything that tracks me to "help" me get more targeted content. I value this forum but I will have to consider my ongoing use if there is no option at all to opt out of this.
  9. I submitted an order on the website for some new strings at half five on Wednesday, I got an order confirmation at half ten Thursday morning and they turned up today (Friday) in the post. Spot on.
  10. PMT are advertising a 1978 Precision here https://www.pmtonline.co.uk/pre-owned-fender-1978-precision-bass-mn-black Very little detail and only two pictures.
  11. Johnny Osbourne has some upcoming live dates in the UK. 19th August in Cambridge, 22nd August in London and 26th August in Newcastle Upon Tyne.
  12. ...and the Herman Chin Loy dub
  13. Includes version.
  14. guitarguitar are selling off their Vox Starstreams for £199 down from an advertised price of £450. Both humbucker and single coil models available. https://www.guitarguitar.co.uk/clearance/vox/?Ordering=2&ClearanceType=PriceDrop&MinPrice=&MaxPrice=&ctm=banner
  15. I Wanna Be Adored by The Stone Roses.
  16. Royal Mail made a profit of £758,000,000 last year so there is no need for the attacks on the workers' terms and conditions and no justification for the well below inflation pay offer. The company can afford it. Royal Mail have to run the universal coverage by law. If they don't then who will?
  17. How do you know that they aren't on their scheduled break? You don't.
  18. I go to gigs on my own and generally end up speaking to people there who have the same interest, love and passion for what is going on. If your local venues have regular gigs then you get to chat to them and sort of end up with gig friends. However I wouldn't trust any of them to hold my pint while I go for a slash.
  19. This is what King Tubby turned into A New Normal In Dub on his latest album
  20. One from King Jammy's latest album
  21. I would suggest posting this in The Reggae Thread.

  23. Prince Alla "Stone" plus "Grate Stone" a King Tubby dub.
