  1. The ‘arts’ is probably built on benefactors funding pieces on commission, paintings, sculpture and even classical composers. if he gets one benefactor who loves his music he is set up , but I’m not sure that crowdfunding is the way to find it though
  2. First thing is that I found none of them to be intuitive however , reaper has so many tutorials on you tube that it shouldn’t take long to get started , you will have plenty of head scratching as things go awry , but it will all come together before too long
  3. “I loved you then as I love you still though I put you on a pedestal they put you on the pill” i saw 2 shooting stars last night , I wished on them , but they were only satellites it’s wrong to wish on space hardware. I wish , I wish you’ld care i don’t want to change the world I’m not looking for a new England just looking for another girl billy Bragg
  4. ......... and then I realise that I am out tonight , off to see a few local bands that I like , proper tickets and everything. 😂😂
  5. Must admit , I’m struggling with a way in to this one , but as it’s p1ssing down here , I will abandon my garden construction and sit down with a couple of home brews tonight and see what happens. im away next week so if I don’t get something best part done , I’ll be buggered getting one in
  6. It was tongue in cheek and pretty much a quote of something I heard her say on an interview once.
  7. Brilliant , I hope it goes really well 👍
  8. Well done fingers , excellent tune
  9. Yep , that is straightforward enough and I don’t have any issues, it is my replacement however, he has had a spam email and with one thing and another it has spooked him , and he has hung up his gig shoes and left the lads a bit stuck!
  10. I did a little private garden party last night backing to a main road, we were supposed to have a full rockset but as I researched the location I suggested an acoustic version of the set. It turned into a bit of a jam but it worked really well with no upset neighbours and a relatively early dart. Having left the band back in November, this is the 3rd gig this month Ive done with them as my replacement has been spooked by a spam email doing the rounds purporting to be HMRC asking for £1000 to settle the tax owed from band appearances. I have declined the pub gigs they have booked in , but I will cover the parties and weddings , these are committed so it would be bad form to let these people down.
  11. Excellent BCer , top quality comms and incredibly swift execution , buy, sell or trade with Mark with total confidence
  12. I can’t believe that she manages to get such big basses , they are enormous ....
  13. As my early indications may have given the thought that my inspiration was toilet based with this one , I won't disappoint I should say PARENTAL GUIDANCE as the variations of the poo word are very audible here. well I missed the fallen angel reference and took the beast as a winged 'protector' and then, with the current political mess , realised the amount of crap that gets spewed from top of the tree and applied the maths. enjoy
  14. I quite like these auction shows , I don't go looking for them but they pretty inoffensive in general ... your thinking of antiques road show there Pete , bargain hunt normally goes to posh car boot sales/ 'antique' fairs , then as has been said they rarely pay the asking price. The part that does annoy me is when the participants start engaging with the auction process, very poor form , and for some reason winds me right up
  15. I was depping for the Razors tonight and it was an awful gig , we played alright , but the lads didn’t take control of a random coked up pisshead who was close to the edge , he came on stage twice and each time I stopped playing , but the others carried on . It wasn’t till I got in the way and stopped the song that the landlady got involved and took him away , restarted the song , finished the song and said our goodbyes. Lots of decent punters came up to apologise and insist we go back , I certainly won’t be, but then I’m not actually in the band any more ! The bloke who took over is struggling with issues at home and has dropped them in it somewhat. I have told the lads I will cover 3 weddings and a carnival (and a house party) as they are important , but have declined all the pub gigs , my diary won’t cope with most of them , and I left the band to get some weekends to myself !
  16. I am pretty sure that mine won’t sound something something like any wings track
  17. Here is a picture. Well in all fairness, my mate Dave wanted a selfie and his phone was flat , so I obliged . As it happened a bunch of blokes brought some kit in and a gig broke out, resulting in @funkgod photobombing Daves selfie
  18. I was 82 once I raced karts and 82 was my club race number
  19. Hmmmm i haven’t tried a German accent before , but there is always a ........first
  20. I looked at that picture and had a thought that I have enough trouble around here with the mess the pigeons leave !!! I have an idea........
  21. If you get your thinking heads on, there are a few threads to help with this a good start here
  22. well done Douglas, an excellent piece , top form
  23. I think I've sussed whats missing I had a panic that I had completely missed something vitally important in the picture and went to check all the copies i had used Very good Douglas
  24. I did a dep last night for the Razors. A party very local to me which I said I’d cover when I left . It was a strange, low energy affair and while the band played well enough , after seeing a lot of bands in the last couple of weeks, it certainly appeared to me that there was a lack of the passion that I thought the band had last year. the set up didn’t help as the drummer sets up in an alcove in this venue behind guitar, on the left , and I am on the right with no line of vision to him , it always did seem a bit disconnected when we played there paid up and home by 12.30 , all in all it was good to keep up to speed playing to an audience .
  25. It was a great night , really enjoyed both bands and an excellent venue , full of character and characters it was great we could all come down and remember some of our first band experiences as well , but 1882
