  1. [quote name='spinynorman' post='741884' date='Feb 11 2010, 11:48 AM']There's a Youtube clip of a live version of Dylan's "It takes a lot to laugh, it takes a train to cry". There's a ton of high profile performers on stage, like Clapton, Tom Petty etc. About half way down the comments there's this:

    "Why do they let that idiot sing? There's ten people on the stage could sing it better than that."

    Next comment "That's Bob Dylan".

    "Oh sorry, didn't recognise him. I'm only 12."

    (actually he said, I'm only young.)[/quote]

    :) :rolleyes: :lol: :lol:
    This is comedy gold. Love it.

  2. Fairly standard Fender-esque bent bit of tin. In unused condition, no rust or tarnishing of any sort. Now £3.50 posted.

    [s]EMG Select SEHB pickup, c/w mounting ring. Has seen a fair bit of action, but works. Very short wires, as per pic. Shouldn't be a problem though. Details [url="http://www.emginc.com/products/index/155"]here[/url]. SOLD[/s]

    [s]Set of tuners, c/w bushes. Currently assembled as 2-a-side but can be reassembled as 4-in-line. Nice operation with no slack. ½"/13mm posts. Will be dismantled for postage. SOLD[/s]

  3. SD Curlee, blimey there's a name from the past alright. I remember trying one once, it had two P pups if I remember correctly and was Stanley-Clarke-Alembic in shape. Crap balance but sounded pretty brutal.

    EDIT: [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S._D._Curlee"]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S._D._Curlee[/url]

  4. [quote name='Dubs' post='770472' date='Mar 10 2010, 02:51 PM']None... isn't the whole point of having a small Class D amp is that it's small, light and easy to carry around in a tiny gig bag? Why would you rack it?[/quote][quote name='51m0n' post='770480' date='Mar 10 2010, 02:57 PM']To protect it, put it in a box with other useful gear (tuner, comp etc).
    The real point to me is they are very lightweight.[/quote]
    Yup, this is precisely why my Shuttle head is rackmounted. Permanently connected to the wireless, mains distribution, etc. And the advantage is that the whole rack is now only marginally heavier than the empty case was! :)

    Now... would everyone like to chill out a bit please? :-)

  5. And they cause impotence in hamsters.
    I like to colour-code the LEDs, e.g. I put a green LED in a green Bad Monkey pedal and a blue LED in my blue Boss bass chorus.

    EDIT. Speaking of Boss pedals, why do they use such pathetic little LEDs? Those red 3mm things can be almost impossible to see on a brightly lit stage. I fitted a 5mm one instead, impossible to miss! :)

  6. [quote name='Stan_da_man' post='764897' date='Mar 5 2010, 10:57 AM']If you are headlining, expect to provide the backline.[/quote]
    If I am headlining, I will expect to provide the backline if it's arranged in advance. Otherwise, unless I know you personally or you are a good friend of a good friend, forget it. This has been my policy ever since the last time I lent my rig to a support on the spur of the moment... went in to watch them halfway into their set, only to see the EQ clip and output limit lights on my Eden head pretty much permanently illuminated.

  7. Given your lack of available practice time, I reckon the best thing to do is to get hold of those mp3s and listen to them over and over and over and over and over and over again.
    Best of luck for tonight, we expect a full status report! :)
