  1. If I cover that for the December Challenge , I think it would break the irony meter
  2. Who is in charge of ordering the taxis around these parts
  3. Oh Douglas you are a star
  4. Reaper has updated to version 6 its different from what I’ve been used too , it’s nothing in the scheme of things , but when I suddenly get a spark and I’m told my money has run out and the interface is a little alien , it just sucks , not massively, but I need everything in my favour to stop me from mass hair extraction by pulling
  5. To be fair it’s a good warm up bass line as well , with a nice deep but clunky tone you can own that song , got be on it rhythmically as it is driven by the low end
  6. I don’t but the singer does , but I think it is purely a confidence thing , beds are burning is his go to first set starter and I have to go back a couple of years to recall a gig that didn’t start with it
  7. Well in there Douglas , I have nothing done so will have to start from scratch as usual , but I have a million other things on. I am hoping for some inspiration soon , even though ‘tradition’ would suggest I have already had a full years notice of the challenge
  8. It is a bit odd ............right hand knee
  9. Well done young Douglas lad , honoured to share the certificate with you sir
  10. I like to get stuck in sharpish , but I also like to throw open the invite for a vocal input from 1 or 2 people , then , as it usually finds a few stumbling blocks , I either do it myself or leave them off , but it takes a couple of weeks to get to the point that what is currently done either improves with my singing attempts or not, decision time, then it gets posted!
  11. Make that 4
  12. Fair play , that's 3 brilliant tracks I've listened to just now well done gents
  13. On it Nigel , excellent
  14. beautiful Douglas , Bravo
  15. OK Because I did a half decent one last month , the singist from the old band was happy to collaborate on this one , and boy does it make a difference , he can ........ er.... sing so many thanks to Mr Ray 'warbler' Robertson of The Razors for contributing to this .....
  16. Holy schmoley I didn’t realise tonight was the deadline ! Ive got one just about ready , so I’ll get a mix done and put it up later , I’ve got a paid soundcloud account so I can put a revised edit on the same link it’s good job @adamg67 posted or I’d have missed it
  17. This is a bit odd as I didn’t think it would be a thing I would say , but Chester is doing alright at the moment , the ‘live rooms’ seems to be putting some half decent shows, the known local band pubs are still busy and a few duos I know are still busy in the area. Tagged on to the Tiv in Buckley , and Central station in Wxm , and there is plenty to see within 10 minute drive/40min bus. so yeah, quite surprised me really
  18. Coughlans quo my old band were supporting , and played a blinder coughlans quo were ok but a bit obscure for me , so I got an early bus back to town for more beer interestingly though, my old band sounded awesome. I told the guitarist how good his AC30 sung through , he said he couldn’t hear it . That was the reason I left the band , he kept turning up so HE could hear it and would be too loud out front . only been discussing this issue for about 8 years
  19. Some days I like lyrics other days I don't Some days all I’ll eat is cheese Other days I won’t though lyrics don’t all have to rhyme I like it when they do I find the tale will flow quite well but I guess that is just me nonsense I say , it’s all nonsense, I do love good lyrics in a song.
  20. There you go Douglas , an opportunity to write a new anthem , not that yours aren’t usually anthems suffice to say , that is an angle that I wasn’t expecting
  21. My dodgy back was diagnosed by a seamstress/seamster/tailor/tailoress (gender related job descriptions confuse me nowadays) basically, while altering my charity shop 6.00 purchase , she noticed one shoulder was lower than the other , causing the spine to be tilted. I don’t get any issues , but it is a good observation and I am now more conscious of my posture , I do plenty of stretching before work already , and as long as I am moving all day I am fine , but standing still is what does me in
  22. That’s a great idea , thanks for that with that in mind the November challenge is go
  23. Unstoppable force there is a great backstory to this ship ‘the Duke of Lancaster ‘ there should be a few angles to get in on this one , well, I hope there is for you all
  24. I’ll send a photo to Skol later today
  25. Many thanks Douglas , thanks to all for the votes , it would be great to have a few more entering and voting. it is brilliant way to enjoy, learn and develop the process of composing, playing and recording music .
