I'm in the process of trying to find band members in the Bournemouth/Dorset area (UK). I play an original 1967 Supro through a Fender Champ from around 1972. I can get a good sound from it but feel very limited at the moment - I think i'm gonna need a bigger amp and maybe a couple of pedals (analogue of course). I was thinking of playing through a decent old Fender bass amp as I have been advised that this often produces good results. Any suggestions?

yup .... http://www.last.fm/user/crankinhaus feel free to add me!

Some great bands on the bill. Since when did the Dragons reform?

Anyone going to the Shakedown this weekend? Tonight's bill at the Brass Lounge looks pretty incredible...

Are you plugging directly into the recorder or are you placing a microphone to the cab? If the latter, try turning down the gain to avoid clipping. If DI check your levels as well.

If by double track you mean overdub, you must first be using a multitrack recorder. If you are, record the first segment on a track, then set that track to "monitor." Then input your signal while the first track is playing back.

you need a 2 track(at least) recorder to double track.as for feedback, it is the microphone of the device. try plugging a microphone on the recorder and put it in some distance from the amplifier to avoid feedback. I hope i was of help.

Watch out for the Jayhawk. It's a residence motel populated by meth cookers. Cops are there almost every night, and folks get stabbed there alot. kopper said:

The Jayhawk Motel doesn't take reservations (it's first come, first served), and only allow two people per room. Just an FYI.

CD-Rs replaced tapes for me ages ago. It's quicker to burn a CD then copy it to tape than mix the tape yourself if you have a car with only a cassett deck. I don't have a car any more so find that putting everything I have onto Media Player gives me one giant jukebox for when I'm at home and not listening to podcasts.

tapes are cheap and easy..mp3s and pod casts are great when your online. its the transfer from there that you need to buy stuff for that makes me resist!!... tom mcneill said:

dude casset traders keep the music industry from turning into just downloads

That's quite possible. Rockin Rod Strychnine said:

I saw the Dolls during that tour as well, and I still liked them. However, I saw them again a couple of months ago, and they disappointed me. They seem to have lost their fire.

Saw them in Portland with the SuperSuckers opening for what's left of the New York Dolls that to was a Little Steven Production. Solid live act the Chesterfield kings that is not the New York Dolls

Gunk is a good term. It's slimy, grimy and dirty just like it sounds.

Surprised no one else is in on this Aussie conversation. Dirty Greg said:

I have both of those murder punk comps, the second disc being the better one (in my opinion). They re-released a two disc set of the Scientist stuff which is really really good. I got into a lot of these '77' Australian bands and found this comp 'Inner City Sound' which also has a book that you can get also (I don't remember if they came together) but it covers the late seventies and early eighties 'post punk' Australian bands. A pretty good read and the cd has a really cool fold out insert with a 'family tree' of all these bands as a lot of the guys went from one band to another.

Kopper!Man!You are the boss for the right reason!Your megaphone djing style,out-of-space-mix of names,demented vocals,chainsaw gutars,what else is needed in good podcast?Some medicine?

Well, a belated response to a belated list. It's all good. Rockin Rod Strychnine said:

It was kind of belated. I didn't look at new posts at all last week.
