  1. I only bought 3 things bass related in 2019: a Musicman lead, a Gravity 9 guitar rack and a single set of EB strings. the most useful: the rack - freed up loads of space the least useful: the lead - I've not used it yet
  2. I'm in - I have been GAS free for a couple of years now. 2019 saw me purchase a lead, some strings and a guitar stand.....I suspect 2020 will see me totally new gear free.
  3. I'd like to think my Black Sterling 4HH with matching headstock and green scratchplate would be instantly recognisable as mine. I looked for ages for a black 4HH with a matching headstock. There seem to be very few in UK.
  4. Cost you £10.95 on this link: https://www.prestomusic.com/sheet-music/products/7031149--vernon-elliott-ivor-the-engine-for-bassoon-and-piano

  7. Cancelled We were supposed to be playing in Sicily on Saturday but the promoter had 'forgotten' to book the venue due to confusion over whether UK would've brexited by now and the concern over whether entertainment visas would've been required.

  9. 893
  10. Aren't flats supposed to 'thud' ?
  11. Here’s a pic
  12. I have a Gravity Vari-G9 - it's great https://www.thomann.de/gb/gravity_vari_g_9.htm Edited coz on checking my order history I saw it was the G9 rather than the G7 I have 5 electric basses, 1 electric guitar, 1 acoustic bass and 1 acoustic guitar in it - and no room for more.
  13. She did but wasn't it the Bside or aa side of Lucky Number ? [Edit: no it wasn't] LOL - I link a youtube of it in a subsequent post. Tommy James and the Shondells never released it as a single in UK though, making Mony Mony their one hit and bizarrely had someone else get to #1 with another of their songs....the initial point of this thread, no?
  14. My first band was founded by me, thus it didn't matter if I couldn't play, which I couldn't to be frank. When I joined the band I'm in now (as per the opening post) I felt I was nowhere near good enough to join a signed band.....the audition probably confirmed that but it was who I was that mattered to the others, the fact that we clicked and got on instantly. The playing could be improved later, much much later in my case.
  15. I picked up the Essential Jazz Classics CD release of Sinatra's "Songs For Swingin' Lovers" - it's a well remastered copy of the original album* (still mono of course) + 11 bonus tracks (single releases from 56-63). Timeless. * I have a 1958 pressing
  16. "Plague of Locusts" "Crucifiction" "Flood" "Bronze Age Fairy Tales"

  18. The Rolling Sex Beatles Sex Machine covers all bases

  22. "Mundane Mouse" "Boring Caterpillar" "Doubtful Wasp" Still not working
  23. "Tasty Vole" "Sexy Cockroach" "Murderous Shrew" no - it's not working
  24. My favourite of band names that mates have formed: After many years playing in their own bands some mates got together to form "Old Country Union"
