Just don't put the stress on yourself about what level you should be at. It isn't a competition.It is not a race. It's music. It's about expression and enjoyment. Relax, enjoy it, express yourself. Be at one with it! It will come naturally!

My mate as took his amp to be fixed. He and I are both idiots. A guy as explained what's wrong and what is solution is. It sounds perfectly reasonable but we wanted to check with people who may know. My mate knows the guy he's took it to a little bit. He is an electronics and amp fixy guy. Its probably paranoia but i didn't want to lay the problem out on here and the guy turn out to be a member here as he's a amp guy. If do we would give the impression of not trusting him!

I need some advice on valves and amps being fixed as i know bugger all. Could i PM anyone who knows what they are talking about? Cheers

Forgive my ignorance so are these all samples or can you create your own melodies with them?

Synthwave is so cool even the Hoff is in on it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTidn2dBYbY

I've started something but i don't think it really fits with the pic. I like it and will carry on with it but prob won't enter it as i can't see it having owt to do with it!

A bit of Synthwave. Mitch Murder http://youtu.be/WM47q02N1-4

[quote name='icastle' timestamp='1454625771' post='2971544'] Unless there's a bassist in the audience then its unlikely that anyone will even notice it. [/quote] I wouldn't care if there was. There is no standard model of playing. Do ya own thing!

[quote name='Hobbayne' timestamp='1454617487' post='2971443'] Some people even go and buy new strings just because the new zingyness has faded. [/quote] That's me

[quote name='keefbaker' timestamp='1454672394' post='2971854'] So, anybody into stuff that doesn't use bass? Recently I've been going through a Synthwave bent, mainly because it reminds me of old 80s scifi movies. [/quote] I've recently got into synthwave. Mitch murder etc. Love it for same reason but it is also really musical. I like the scandanavian penchant for harmonic and melodic minor. To be fair love them synth bass sounds

I recently put one up. I had a few pm's within a couple of days and got the thing i wanted within a week!

[quote name='colgraff' timestamp='1454275503' post='2968213'] David Lee Roth from Van Halen days to swap places with Bruce Dickinson from Iron Maiden. [/quote] Oh God no! There is only one place for the Diamond One and that is VH! He's to upbeat for Maiden and their one trick song(s)! Unless you mean it just for the purpose of Dickinson being in VH. I wouldn't like that either. There would be no fun in early VH then. Each to their own though, it is your choice. I'll shut the f*** up!

I define whether it's cool or not!

[quote name='Bikenbass' timestamp='1454247653' post='2967801'] I didn't. He demanded payment for Children In Need when all others gave their time for free. He shamelessly plugged artists and bands he had an interest in on his radio show. Sorry for any offence taken. [/quote] [quote name='timmo' timestamp='1454264582' post='2968032'] I guess that his fee would have been worth it as he was one of the few presenters that was high profile and seemingly universally liked, and could get you to part with your money. You could also say that the people who did it for free were shamelessly plugging themselves on such a high profile show, which I would imagine the free publicity would outweigh the potential future earnings. I wouldn`t hold that against them though. [/quote] Also, it was the BBC's discretion to give him a fee. He didn't ask, the put it in his salary as an honorarium payment. They give it him for the first one and never stopped. they said they weren't ashamed of it, saw no reason to hide it and wouldn't stop. It came out of the Beebs money not Children in Needs. He didn't demand it. Plus if those two things are the only things that make him an horrible person then most people are Hitler!

[quote name='steantval' timestamp='1454253333' post='2967855'] A bit out of order I would say. How many bands would not have made it if John Peel had not "shamelessly plugged artists and bands he had an interest in" ? [/quote]I know, what a **** wogan was!

Who can forget the epic episode of Points of View! http://youtu.be/Op5YZ0p8B64

[quote name='rubis' timestamp='1454231391' post='2967593'] Like him or not, he was a wit and a music fan Had cancer apparently, more very sad news [/quote] Who doesn't like him? You'd have to be a sad, bitter **** of a person to not like him.

I was gonna come back this month as I'm reinvigorated to write and have improved my equipment a little. However, I just can't get owt from the pics. So maybe next month!

Yes thanks. Not only is he an awesome drummer. Tight, musical, experienced. He's a great singer so now our bv's sound like Queen. He has all is own gear, pa, lights, smoke machine. A total pro! Oh yeah and a cracking bloke!

[quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1451676649' post='2942398'] And then change the body. [/quote] It's gonna end up like Trigger's sweeping brush!

I'd probably buy better pick ups too if I bought one. Wouldn't be sure what to get though!

I've thought about it but someone said its a bit hit n miss with the necks! Which kind of put me off!

[quote name='visog' timestamp='1451768105' post='2943329'] Hmmm... it's not that good I'm afraid... Hasn't aged well but by contrast ST has matured nicely... Wry, subtle and clever. Horses for course I guess but the Wogan thing was just embarrassing. I think for me, Ade Edmonson hasn't ever been funny outside of the Young Ones. [/quote] I'll disagree as the first two series of Bottom are legendary. I think Eddie hitter is a better character than Vivian!
