How very dare you have a different opinion to me 😝

Listening to the album this is from. Had to climb down from my high horse to admit how good this is.

Favourite guitar tone. Townsend nails it. Least favourite: anything that sounds like a wasp in a biscuit tin....fizzy none sense. Sadly one of my favourite guitarists, Davey Johnstone is guilty of this with his lead playing back in the 70’s. ☹️

Reluctantly watched the Noel Gallagher episode of the songwriters programme. I dismissed Oasis as overrated rip off merchants from their first appearance on TOTP in mid 90’s. Couldn’t stand the whining singer, hated the constant “we’re the greatest rock n roll band ever”, all the stories of fighting and cancelling tours half way through because of said fighting (f@@@ the fans). Couldn’t see what the hype was all about. So, what a surprise when I listened to Noel G talking about music, songwriting and his experience of working with David Holmes. It sounded like Mr Holmes wasn’t going to accept “Oasis rehashed” and made Noel G work hard at exploring new avenues of writing and production, rather than resting on a known formula. And Noel G listened.. Respect! Really enjoyed the interview. But more surprising was listening to his songs played by his current band, and without L Gallagher’s awful nasal whine. I really liked Noel’s voice and have a new found respect for his songwriting. Hasn’t changed my mind about Oasis, or L Gallagher, but I’ll certainly be buying “Who built the moon”. I wonder if I’d have felt the same about Oasis if Noel had fronted it from the start? But then again they wouldn’t have been as big as they were without the b00llox I guess.

Who can forget the great Alvin Stardust coup kachoo of 74?

Someone on eBay “modifies” them for those with larger digits. PM me for details.

Sorry. He’s sat down! His left thumb position!! 🤦🏻‍♂️ He’s probably got a music stand just out of site! That shirt! No “passion” (ie no histrionics/face pulling/he obvs doesn’t “mean it”)! Pedals anyone? Where are the pedals??? ps I love Pat Martino

Best I don’t argue either 😊

No such thing in any sphere. Ludicrous notion. Individual favourites, yes. Oh hold on....news just in...my wife is the greatest wife of all time.

14 pages in and I still don’t know which wood helps you play the most number of right notes and which is the best wood type for timing? Can someone please do some comparison videos? 🤡

Glad to be of assistance 😂

Bloody knew it! 😠

Coral or Boa?

Fixed 😊

I think it’s all good. Some can hear a difference, some can’t. For some it’s important, for others it’s not. Not sure what arguments achieve on these topics. 🙏

Schoolboy error. Always ask a local where you can score some puff.

Cool! Antonia is great, good b/v too. Small world indeed.

Listening to the back catalogue, and new album songs, in prep for first rehearsal in May. I’ll be lucky if I remember how to plug my bass in! 😂

Yes he does you’re right! Amended.🙏

Let the hate begin 😂

I’ll take 3 please. 🤫

W-O-W

Hurry up someone....I want my heroes, S Club 7 I’ll edit this after so it’s sequential Or it’s S Club 6 (the post H years)
