Never did a season , but did a few years ago . The Birdies Song , is one of my abiding memories . That and coppin' off with a Blue coat

Also good to see Dave Bronze still about - playing with Tom Jones .

Played a big bike rally a couple of days ago . Do it every year and we had the whole night this year . Sheds loads of gear all through the genny , though lights seperate . 3rd song in and the power goes , everyone running around checking everything . Soundman (and best mate) comes up and asks is I have a spare 13 amp fuse - that was the culprit . Honestly , it took 10 minutes to find , and as per usual it's the Bass player with his spares who sorts out everyone else . Lost count over the years when I've helped guitarists out with spare strings , batteries etc . Bloody good job us Bassist carry spares , though I never thought a PA crew wouldn't have any spare 13 amp fuses . Drummer kept in going with "we will rock you" , just to stop the crowd getting antsy .

I suppose it's down to what you're used to hearing. [/quote]We're all different mate , as seen here by the differing views of her performance . Some of you love it , and some of us really can't see what the fuss is about . I suspect I'd probably like her sideman work more (if she's done any) , 'cause this seems to be the case with me . Like I've got albums with Marcus Miller on , that I like - playing wise and tune wise . I've also got some of his solo work , and I consider it pure dross - just tuneless . I just love listening to these guys , and gals , in sidemen roles , backing up great established artists . It's just when they go off and do their own , mainly instumental , albums , it just loses me somewhat . I know I may be in the minority , and I'm not playing devils advocate here , it's just we all 'hear' this stuff differently .

Coming late to the party here , but I caught her 1st song on the iplayer , and couldn't even bring myself to watch it to the end . Probably gonna be slated here , but it just sounded a mess . Great playing but no tune . Someone on here mentioned about great players don't always make great music , and by what I saw , I'd agree . Perhaps if I listened to some of here albums , I may have a different view , but on the strength of the programme alone , I won't be bothering .

Hi guys Got a big rally gig tomorrow , and thinking about bringing along all of my cabs . Just cause I only get the chance once a year , and want to hear what it all sounds like . Gonna bring a 5.3 ohm 610 , 4 ohm 410 and 8 ohm 210 . Borrowing a power amp , and slaving out of my amp . Am I right in thinking that if I hook up the 5.3 ohm 610 and 8 ohm 210 together , that'll make 4 ohms ? Then the 4 ohm 410 can be run off of the other side of the amp . Overkill I know - he he , but just fancy a monster rig for the first time , as it's rare I get any room on stage , and I'm gonna have bags of it tomorrow . Think I'm correct with the ohmage , but just thought I'd ask . Paul

Chequered on is a Home Brew , I think .

Bought an OC2 from Ryan . All smooth . Good communication , well packaged - top bloke .

Deleted - already a thread

I'm still going to buy it . I agee with most on here that the internet has diminished it's appeal , but I like a physical magazine - especially for the bog . I hope the new publishing organisation works out ; and there's one big plus - no more Swans in Flight ads

We've not gigged for a little over a month - we all had a bit of this (I think it's refered to as 'playing "out" ') . Not the numbers we normally get - weather probably . Tried a new pedal out (Prunes and Custard) , just need to get to grips with it how it sits in the band . Couldn't get a decent sound out of my other fuzzes , so need to spend a bit of time . Actually getting a lie in tomorrow (today) , that is going to go past 9am (be a first) . Guitarists as per usual , too loud , and faffing with there tuning all the time . Bit of a non descript pants gig all in

Bought a Prunes and Custard off of Al , and a great guy to deal with . Good communication , and arrived well packaged . Great guy .

[quote name='JakeBrownBass' timestamp='1335337768' post='1629339'] Picked up a mini Polytune yesterday and it's fantastic!! The size is amazing, the tracking is so much quicker than my previous DT10 and it looks as cool as you can get. At £65 i think its by far the best tuner out there at the moment for price. I don't believe Peterson tuners are worth the hefty price tag, a mixture of a standard tuner and your ear are equally as good IMO. Of course if you make a living setting up basses and need the maximum accuracy for intonation or record in the studio every day i'd go for the polytune. [/quote]Yep , love mine . Probably the best £65 I've ever spent - how sad am I ?

Hi James , welcome aboard . It was me who sent you the link to this , as I said earlier on in this thread , that I couldn't stand this behaviour . On the face of it , it looked quite dodgy , and now reading all of this , I now feel somewhat bad writing what I did . It has though , given you the chance to explain what happened , and it seems to be a communications issue , and that's all . Sorry if I initially caused any ill feeling , but I feel , it's worked out well . As now you've joined the best Bass forum on the planet , and by trading any gear on here - either in or out - you're going to deal with gentlemen of the highest order (most of the time ) , and realise where your new home is . No hard feelings mate , and welcome again x

Sent a message . I can't abide this behaviour .

Look halfway down this page . It's not one of his main pedals , but could be a custom option . [url="http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f36/[sfx]-user-appreciation-society-807501/index6.html"]http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f36/[sfx]-user-appreciation-society-807501/index6.html[/url]

[quote name='thisnameistaken' timestamp='1334594641' post='1618223'] I still quite like 'Testes, one two'. Twenty years of it and I still chuckle. [/quote]I can't believe I've never heard this one . I'm gonna use it next week .

On my wavelength , mate . When I finally get around to selling some gear and buying a headed Status Stealth , these are going to be the 3 colours that I'm going to debate on . Don't know what Rob Green will think though , hehe .
