As an aside, I can recommend these books to any proper Genesis anoraks out there. Pretty in-depth and honest stuff from the band members.

Canny band that he's in, too.

Joe Public: "Boring old Fender, always rehashing J's & P's" Fender: "Here's our new Katana." Joe Public: "What the hell is that? Booooo! When's the next J or P out?"

In addition to all the great advice above... If you stick your ear on the top horn and play the E (unamplified), does it sound mushy? Is the E-string saddle stable enough on the bridge, or is it sliding about a little too easily? If you screw the pickups right down, as far as you can, does it improve things?

Love the look of those. Unfortunately I’m one of those people who would look ridiculous if I gigged one.

I don't watch these things very often (laziness, rather than 'There's nowt they can teach me!') but if I did, I'd probably watch this guy. Never seen him before, but he's very good.

Music aside, I'm sick of videos where it looks like the participants are getting off on appreciating each other's flatulence.

He's an amazing player. A bit gutted he's on on the current Hackett tour 'cos he was mint last time.

Ah, standard stuff then. I can live with that.

They’ve always had ads on the Spotify version. Is this something different?

To complicate matters further... Even if it sounds OK at the rehearsal, it's all going to change on the night of the gig itself. Fish batter is a notorious acoustic sponge - it'll soak up all the reflections, which will have its pros and cons. You might lose the slapjack / timing issues mentioned earlier, at the expense of being to hear the other half of the band. Is it too late to suggest a change to pie & chips instead? That might mitigate the problem somewhat.

I'm weird - I love them chunky 70s necks. The 60s profile is too planky for my liking.

'Clemenza... get Sticky Labella over here. Tell him I gotta job for him.'

Yeah they'll smooth off to the point you think rounds are the sticky ones.

GAAAH.. stop it The thing is, they have tapes from the '77 tour. It's about time we got an expanded Seconds Out.

I can't imagine ever needing more that the 120w the Handbox WB-100 can provide.

It's not a riff, but the play-out of Don't Give Up has to be up there.

OK - most of what I’ve seen is already on YouTube. Some of it (like this one) from the original, and uncredited, source.

If I was a betting man, I'd say Phil agreed to it 'cos it's a dig at Orianne.

It was interesting to hear Mike talk so candidly, and quite brave of them to include it in the edit. I agree with all of this, but I would say Phil strikes me as the kind of person that wouldn’t do it unless he had to. I reckon he might need the cash.

i reckon at best we’ll see him behind a rack of toms, doing some token flabbadabbing.

Hey @Bart Funk Bass - as your channel just seems to primarily be lots of content copied from other YouTube channels, is it not a bit cheeky asking for PayPal support..? Just curious.

Every time Clarky says this, it’s like a dagger in my heart. You lucky duck.

With a bit of interest 🙂

I wish I shared your optimism - at least I won’t be disappointed whatever happens 😄
