  1. When the two bands I was in (quite a few years apart) that were most likely to break through, didn't. One of them was agonisingly close. Somewhere in a 'sliding doors' parallel universe, there's a version of me that's as rich as Croesus.
  2. How do you find out how heavy a red hot chilli pepper is?

    Give it a weigh, give it a weigh, give it a weigh now.

  3. If the SW Bash doesn't happen, I might have to make a road trip to see you guys instead...
  4. Double ditto. Come on folks, we can't let this go!
  5. Had a bit of an eye-opener on a bass-oriented Farcebook group this morning. My god, there are some selfish c**ts in this world.

      Facebook is full of knobs. I've left numerous groups due to wildly snobbish / holier than thou postings. I remain on there for buying  / selling, and for a few groups than are nice to be on. Don't let it bother you. It's just social media, where opinions largely only mean something to those posting them

      Get yourself onto the RRF forum if you're bored. The most easily-offended people in Bassdom.

       

      Actually, I think most them migrated to a similar group on FB.

      Don't let them get you down Rich. They are just ignorant Mr and Mrs Silly Billy.

  6. Sure I have GAS for a couple of unreachable stars (Wal 5-string, '65 Jazz) but realistically they will never happen and I know it. In the real world, I have everything I need. One thing that would be handy is a small lightweight 500+ watt 8 ohm cab, so I can run my amp at lower levels. (But not too small or it'll sound like an iPhone, apparently. 🙄) But that's not a need or even a really-want.
  7. Like this? Seems like a good idea. Question is... What is the threshold at which the alarm should be triggered? I suppose it depends on the individual circuit. https://www.modellingelectronics.co.uk/products/low-battery-indicator-model-boats/
  8. It's a 2x12. A very, very loud 2x12. Do you have anything to actually contribute to the thread, or did you just come here to make sarky comments about my rig?
  9. Seconded. Here's to a speedy recovery.
  10. Is it silly that I'm getting really excited the closer the BFSWBB gets? Seeing some familiar faces, meeting some new ones, the fantastic looking kit list (and this year I feel like I've finally got something worth showing too!). I feel like a kid in the run-up to Xmas.
  11. I'd also like Fender to release the 80s Performer bass again, albeit slightly updated with wider string spacing (and perhaps a different headstock). This and the aforementioned Beck bass are the only two Fenders that I would seriously consider buying.
  12. I wanted one of those. So I bought a Shuttle 9.2 and a Barefaced Super 12T. Now I have a super powerful bass amp that barely requires any effort at all to move from home-car-venue and back again.
