You must have posted a photo of this before, but I can't remember seeing it.
But that is pretty awesome looking,

Unless you're Ampeg it seems.
 

Well that was unexpected...

Starting the day off in a mellow way:

ok, I can listen to that and I'm a fan of Painkiller:

So I guess if it sounds like the sax is being tortured then I do actually like it. But Stetson manages to make it listenable without the torture side.

Now, for me, the saxophone is the worst sounding instrument that exists. But Colin Stetson not only makes it sound bearable, he makes it sound amazing.

There fixed it for you, your welcome 

They have their issues too. I emailed them that I was interested in a bass and got a part-ex value agreed for one of my basses. As soon as I got the part ex offer I emailed to say I'd be up a few days later and to see if they would be around that day. I didn't hear back for a couple of days and then that was to tell me they'd sold the bass the previous day.

Al Cisneros - Sinai Dub

Great news you're feeling good Phil!

I'm really interested in this cab. My 14 year old daughter started playing bass a few months back and her and her friends have formed a little band (one has an electronic drum kit and another plays guitar and is interested in other instruments e.g. autoharp, uke, banjo, zither...). I've been trying to sort out a lightweight rig 
she can carry to the drummer's house, down the road. On Saturday I got a little Hotone Thunder bass, from Andertons for £50, and it's pretty impressive for such a tiny thing. 
Now I'm thinking this amp with a good 8" cab would be spot on for her.

These are great basses, I love mine. The pickup is really punchy.

The last ever Shellac album. ☹️

Øxn - Cyrm is still a daily play for me:

Just got back from Bristol and seeing friends Hackedepicciotto at Crofters Rights.

Fantastic to see them again…

Today will be full of Steve Albini. Including, but not limited to:

The new Pearl Jam album. 
It's pretty damned good. One of their best in a long long time.

Some early Ozzy...

Where are you based?

I've been wandering Addis Ababa listening to Ethiopian reggae such as Jay Lude:

I love Mark Korven's work for film scores. I've seen him live and it's incredible:

Oh no! Sad news indeed. 😢

I'm not sure if Ministry would ever want to be classed as whacky but Jesus Built My Hotrod is edging towards that territory... and is fantastic. Puts a smile on my face every time. 

 

 

I really wish Gibby had down more with Al and the Ministry/RevCo guys.

Currently listening to prayers being broadcast, from an Orthodox Church, across Addis Ababa...

Mouldy Old Dough by Lieutenant Pigeon, though mainly for the Coventry connection rather than its musical merits..!

Ah, it was number 1 on the day I was born in Coventry. Maybe I should give it a listen...
