[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1360589548' post='1972794'] But give me and 3 of my musically inclined friends virtually unlimited studio time in a state of the art facility. Give us a sympathetic producer and a team of engineers ready to pander to our every sonic whim. Feed us a diet of previously unheard music and the occasional mind-altering drugs, and then outside of the studio surround us with the cream of innovative artists spanning the whole spectrum of creative endeavour, and I'm sure that we could come up with a series of albums every bit as varied and interesting as anything the Beatles did. [/quote] Now there's a thrown-down-gauntlet! If everyone on BC chipped in a tenner, we could make it happen :-)

Thanks!

Nice work. Might have to give it a go. Thanks!

[quote name='BetaFunk' timestamp='1360434428' post='1970454'] No not deliberately. This has been a fun topic. It shows how passionate about music we all feel and we're never always going to agree. The Mozart thing was just thrown in because he really was a genius. I don't think anyone can compare with his genius and the influence he had on music. [/quote] Mozart was a giant for sure, but there were giants before him upon whose shoulders he stood. While we're here maybe JS Bach should get credit for 'most influential' as he invented the even-tempered scale upon which ALL* Western music is based. * yeah, ok...

Got a 40 year old mic from Kieran. It had been so well looked after and so carefully packed that it actually sounded BETTER than when it was new :-)

You're very likely to blow the tweeters if you get a bit of feedback. On the other hand, almost anything is better than a 20W guitar amp for vocals! Are you rehearsing with a drummer?

Not my own experience, but: http://www.negativland.com/news/?page_id=17

If you go to digital village, check out Al Amin just up the road (same side, heading out of town) most excellent samosas. Guaranteed no horsemeat or pork. Couple of hundred metres further up the road, devonshire arms has great beer. Looks like a real ale twats pub but is pretty friendly.

Any more information?

Ramones Solid Air

Maybe the band he's in now just doesn't suit the Ric? The next one might.

Can I be the first to say that Dave is an honest gentleman, packs stuff nicely and gets it in the post when he says he will despite having been up all night with a new baby :-)

I have one of these http://compare.ebay.co.uk/like/200825741619?var=lv&ltyp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes&var=sbar&adtype=pla&crdt=0 very little use, any interest? It's very heavy. Whereabouts do you live?

[quote name='Graham' timestamp='1359639606' post='1958048'] You didn't go to Anglia Polytechnic did you? As I remember there being a Torque there, and you are in Cambs..... [/quote] Anglia Polytechnic University, or 'APU'. They ran an advertising campaign on the sides of buses in 2001, slogan 'Make it APU in 2002' I looked forward to the following year's campaign: 'Have a wee in 2003' Anyway. Crap amps. I had a Marshall transistor amp, 100W (yeah right). Looked like the classic Marshall but ran over with a steamroller. Sounded as thin as it looked.

On the other hand, he's maybe just not very good at expressing himself in text and is so afraid of timewasters he's overdoing the seriousness.

[/quote] [quote name='tonyquipment' timestamp='1359440610' post='1954709'] Appearance is irrelevant, that was uncouth and uncalled for. [/quote] bizarre.

And if it's a valve output, don't switch it on without the speaker connected! That's very likely to release the magic blue smoke.
