I thought I had it here but I don't.

Obviously theirs is more "RAWK" and less drum maschine but they get the textural element dead right.

OK, so I definitely need a preamp. An all PUTW solution now weighs in at $285

At the other end of the spectrum is a behringer stomp box which has EQ and some tube modelling guff (which can be turned off). at £25

Kate how did you get on with the Krautrocksampler pdf I sent you?

On that krautrock website http://www.midsuffolk.unisonplus.net/Top%2050.htm I have on cd or mp3 all of the top 50
and also most of the added albums that shrimp guy made on the end of the list. see http://pages.unisonfree.net/midsuffolk/Top%2051-150.htm

Some is just dodgy german hard rock that even Chuck & George might struggle to like, some of the (non-hardrock)albums are ok

Can we have a favourite krautrock album poll next time?

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Wednesday, 7 March 2007 18:20 (nineteen years ago)

No, because there's no way I could possibly choose just *one* Krautrock album.

― Masonic Boom, Wednesday, 7 March 2007 18:23 (nineteen years ago)

band?

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Wednesday, 7 March 2007 18:27 (nineteen years ago)

Maybe, although that changes from week to week.

― Masonic Boom, Wednesday, 7 March 2007 18:28 (nineteen years ago)

Emsk, miracle worker. :-) (Translation = NIN was the roxor.)

― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 8 March 2007 00:01 (nineteen years ago)

yay :) i look forward to sunday then... the low lows were ace too, slightly different vibe i suspect.

― emsk, Thursday, 8 March 2007 00:45 (nineteen years ago)

Hello. I've never been on one of these threads before and I will probably disappear again straight away, but I'd just like to say LA DUSSELDORF LA DUSSELDORF LA DUSSELDORF. *ahem* Thank you for your time.

― emil.y, Thursday, 8 March 2007 00:50 (nineteen years ago)

is she having a competition, between la and dusseldorf?

― emsk, Thursday, 8 March 2007 00:54 (nineteen years ago)

Hello, good morning everyone. I am recovering from a flu type thing. cough cough splutter :(

― C J, Thursday, 8 March 2007 09:15 (nineteen years ago)

Hello CJ - welocme back, hope you're feeling better!

Watercooler people - I have a grevious hangover, please don't make too any loud noises near me. It was darts last night and we WON!

― Dr.C, Thursday, 8 March 2007 09:19 (nineteen years ago)

I have yet another Red Stripe induced hangover.

― Ed, Thursday, 8 March 2007 09:23 (nineteen years ago)

Drunken darts nights remind me of that Alas Smith And Jones sketch. What was the Mel Smith dart player called? Evenfatterbelly Gutbucket or something.

― C J, Thursday, 8 March 2007 09:28 (nineteen years ago)

Ugh - Red Stripe hangovers are brutal. I haven't had one for around 20 years thank god. Mine is a Youngs 'Ram and Special' hangover. I was late to the darts and had to drink fast to get in the zone, as I need at least 2 pints to steady the arm.

― Dr.C, Thursday, 8 March 2007 09:31 (nineteen years ago)

I haven't played darts for years. Mr C J used to play for a pub team, and back in the days before we had the kids I would often go along and play a few warm up matches with him. I wasn't too bad, either.

I used to play Aunt Sally and bar billiards, too. and Shut The Box.

― C J, Thursday, 8 March 2007 09:33 (nineteen years ago)

x-post I think the sketch was on Not The Nine O Clock News. I tried to find a picture of Mel Smith as the darts player, but this will have to do instead :

Isn't Jocky cuddly.

Bar billiards! As I am fond of mentioning (sorry) I am the reigning ILX bar billiards champion, after defeating post-tournament favourite Martin "The Hustler" Skidmore in a thrilling final a couple of years ago.

Shut The Box - I should know what that is but I don't.

― Dr.C, Thursday, 8 March 2007 09:41 (nineteen years ago)

Is that where you throw left-handed, get a number and then have to hit it five times before you can 'knock down' everyone else by rhe number of times they've hit their own? and all that?

― Mark G, Thursday, 8 March 2007 09:52 (nineteen years ago)

Shut The Box is a dice game:

xpost : yes, you're right, it was Not The Nine o'Clock News.

Ah-ha. Of course.

Morning all!

While looking at guitar p0rn on ebay I saw this and thought of Kate:

Paisley 68 Telecaster!

x-post Hang on - I posted a Paisley Tele on the last watercooler! No harm in seeing another though. (want it, want it, want it....)

― Dr.C, Thursday, 8 March 2007 10:21 (nineteen years ago)

I have made a resolution that today I will not look at pickups and preamps.

― Ed, Thursday, 8 March 2007 10:21 (nineteen years ago)

Jocky Wilson's from my hometown. Lived about 10 minutes away from the house I grew up in.

however I will say that this morning absolutely sparkled. I was foolish not to get my sunglasses out.

― Ed, Thursday, 8 March 2007 10:22 (nineteen years ago)

No Dr C, you are wrong. Ynysybwl's finest was my father :)

― C J, Thursday, 8 March 2007 10:25 (nineteen years ago)

I can't remember who was a doubter, but scroll down to the penultimate page for [Removed Illegal Link] (warning PDF)

― Ed, Thursday, 8 March 2007 10:27 (nineteen years ago)

I stand corrected!

― Dr.C, Thursday, 8 March 2007 10:30 (nineteen years ago)

I thought they'd fixed that

― Ed, Thursday, 8 March 2007 10:31 (nineteen years ago)

What are you trying to tell us, Ed?

― Dr.C, Thursday, 8 March 2007 10:31 (nineteen years ago)

I'm not sure, my head is mush and I'm trying to find royalty free music videos for a workflow example.

― Ed, Thursday, 8 March 2007 10:32 (nineteen years ago)

My head is now a lot better - a bacon sandwich and a cup of sugary tea is working it's magic as usual.

― Dr.C, Thursday, 8 March 2007 10:34 (nineteen years ago)

I so want a bacon buttie right now.

― C J, Thursday, 8 March 2007 10:48 (nineteen years ago)

I content that a good bacon buttie cannot be had in London, it really needs a breadcake or a barm to contain it all.

― Ed, Thursday, 8 March 2007 10:56 (nineteen years ago)

Either it's a mother's pride special or you get something like the exchange I once had whilst similarly hung over, in Konstam, a great but now sadly defunct cafe:

Ed: Can I have a bacon sandwich please.
K worker: we have a bacon avocado and tomato sandwich, which break would you like it on?
Ed: sourdough, but just bacon.
K worker: we don't have just bacon on the menu, I don't know what to charge you
Ed: Just make me a bacon avocado and tomato sandwich without avocado and tomato
K worker: are you sure
Ed: oh well, I'll have some tomato

― Ed, Thursday, 8 March 2007 11:00 (nineteen years ago)

why did you capitulate on the tomato? Wuss.

― Grandpont Genie, Thursday, 8 March 2007 11:02 (nineteen years ago)

It was a sunny day, I was late for a meeting, I really needed that sandwich.

― Ed, Thursday, 8 March 2007 11:02 (nineteen years ago)

The Great Bacon Buttie Debate : tomato ketchup or brown sauce??

― C J, Thursday, 8 March 2007 11:03 (nineteen years ago)

I have always meant to mix brown sauce and tomato sauce together to see if the resultant mixture is nice.

after all, it could be; such experimentation led to Thousand Island dressing.

― Grandpont Genie, Thursday, 8 March 2007 11:04 (nineteen years ago)

Brown Sauce is the correct answer. Just so you know. HP obviously.

― Dr.C, Thursday, 8 March 2007 11:12 (nineteen years ago)
