"Slinky as raccoons in the roof" it is - pretty standard Robert Smith behaviour there! On "Give me it" by The Cure, he sings about slitting cats open like cheese... so it could be worse. Not quite a song I'd choose for a wedding bash though.

That works for me, see you there. Props to @neepheid for this.

12/13 July or 2/3 August are fine for me!

If I'm around, why not? Keep me in the loop please 👍

Thankyou for the warm welcome to the forum, I'll probably lurk for a bit and find my way about, already finding the forum super helpful. I've started with a second-hand black Yamaha BB434, standard apart from a black pickguard and a small Orange practice amp. As an aside, the bass was used by the previous (pro musician) owner on the incidental music for "Homes under the Hammer" off the telly - ok it's not Physical Graffiti but it's.. something! Not often out in the city but do go to gigs at the Lemon Tree, Tunnels and Drummonds etc 👍 Mostly gigs where everyone is either bald or grey. PS favourite player is probably JJ Burnel, it's just taken me nearly 50 years to pick up the bass after first hearing him! Late starter indeed, plus too many other hobbies. Although I listen to anything and everything these days.

Hi there I'm Kev, living up in the Granite City and just starting out as a player. I've waited too many years (decades, in fact) to pick up the bass but am enjoying my beginner journey immensely, although progress is slow - aiming for accuracy rather than speed! I've already had a positive forum experience in purchasing from the classifieds (many thanks @rainbowreality ) and look forward to learning much more here. Hello to all!

Purchased a compressor pedal from Paul (rainbowreality) and it arrived very promptly, packaged well enough to withstand a volley and in as-new condition. I'm a noob here on the forum and this was a very positive first experience all round. Paul was a pleasure to deal with, very quick responses and detailed comms. Highly recommended seller, two thumbs up! 👍👍
