well, that guitar i bid on i got ( :) ) but then my Pay Pal account fuc[I]ke[/I]d up so i've been sitting here trying to sort it out
i've sent god knows how many e-mails to the company (it's only a small 2-3 man company) apologising for the late payment and begging them not to put it up for resale
so all in all, i look like a d|ck, wont get my guitar for another couple of days and am now late to go and meet my girlfriend cos i've been sat infront of this computer trying to get some kind of sense out of wanky paypal

Well, with me skipping class and all, I was asked by this kid's brother to play bass with them. The kid's brother actually plays bass, but is going to be guitarist. The guy just saw me in the hall; stopped and took his headphones off; and then asked me if I was interested. I think it's going to be fun, though. It was awkward talking to the kid because I've never talked to him before. I've only seen him around school and such.

See what happens when you're ditching class because you haven't done your homework?

Oh well. I hope everyone is having a good day.



I also haven't been on much because my internet at home is being retarded.

ElKapitan 04-25-2005 11:48 AM

for some reason my ISP and everything to do with my computer hates me at the moment
it's like i connect to the internet and my modem actively seeks viruses and trojans and invites them onto my hard drive for a party!

:lol:

My internet at home just likes to cut out all the time. And the fact that I have cable, so it's always connected, is freakin' annoying. It's like this: on for a few minutes; cuts out; goes on; cuts out some more; continues to be connected; cuts off some more until I explode.

It's been like that for the past week or so.

Pluperfect_Arson 04-25-2005 11:53 AM

I'll be right back, everyone.

Thunder Fingers 04-25-2005 11:53 AM

i guess what realy frustrates me and keeps me away from me bass right now is song writing....

fatbandit 04-25-2005 11:56 AM

Swap the Fulltone for my Big Muff, Martin? :D

I think I know the answer to that one...

Okay, so this business coursework... In for Friday. Its doable. That is until you take into account I have a gig on Wednesday, and band practice tomorrow... :upset:

I'm going to fail business... I'd pull out of the gig if I could to be honest, but I can't.

Thunder Fingers 04-25-2005 12:00 PM

its the muff sides with the fulltone i dont like.... :upset:

i want a p bass...:upset:

i at least want one bass that i can have flatwounds on, cause, honestly. i prefer jazzes with roundwounds...

kilian 04-25-2005 12:07 PM

^^ jazzbass + dimarzio model j + flatwounds = tha shizzle.


:wave:

fatbandit 04-25-2005 12:07 PM

Aww, go on. I'd like to try out the fulltone... At least you know what you're getting with the muff! :P

I'm fine with one bass, personally.

Thunder Fingers 04-25-2005 12:09 PM

Im fine with one bass to, i just want a Precision :p

ShelBel 04-25-2005 12:20 PM

Hey all, what's up with Casual today? Other than all this lovely on-topic conversation about bass-y stuff... ;)

Radiobass81 04-25-2005 12:21 PM

Hey.

kilian 04-25-2005 12:24 PM

hey radio!

ShelBel 04-25-2005 12:24 PM

Heya Radiobass! I'm at work, and bored silly (sound familiar?), my eyes were crossing from copying port assignations from our router into a spreadsheet (and there are 9 pages of the darn things) so I had to put it away and do something else for a while.

Thunder Fingers 04-25-2005 12:25 PM

Hey Shel, Hey Radio!

maby i should try ernie balls again :p i like the overdrive tone of Jari Kainulainen....

ShelBel 04-25-2005 12:27 PM

The other thing I've been contemplating is restringing my crappy little Squier BEAD. Any thoughts? I mean, its not like it could be worth any LESS! :lol:

Radiobass81 04-25-2005 12:29 PM

Get some DR Strings. You should buy a 6-string, to also give ADGC a try.

I've always wondered how one of the only forumers with a real job still has a Squier for a main bass (or I may be wrong in that) :p.

ShelBel 04-25-2005 12:54 PM

LOL!

Well, try making house payments... credit card payments... grocery shopping... insurance... putting gas in the car.... buying clothes for the kids...

As much fun as I have playing, its pretty low on the totem pole of priorities. It works. And for now I deal. I *know* its crappy, but meh. :lol:

Dieforitall89 04-25-2005 01:04 PM

Hey guys. :wave:

fatbandit 04-25-2005 01:08 PM

ARGH! I'm about ready to f[b]u[/b]cking kill someone over this coursework :mad:

I'm just going to fail Business I think :( I need another day at least.

Radiobass81 04-25-2005 01:16 PM

Oh yeah, I forgot about the kids. That's a big demand. Surprised you still have time to play :p.

Fatbandit: I have to read two books by tomorrow... Exams :upset:.

Thunder Fingers 04-25-2005 01:18 PM

Im ready to hurt anyone.. i am REALY pissed right now... I have spended alot of money on a thing i probaly will NEVER use in my bands... and it werent cheap, and i bet the store are such arseholes that think that "Sold is Sold"

Radiobass81 04-25-2005 01:19 PM

What was it?

Thunder Fingers 04-25-2005 01:21 PM

Fulltone Bass Driver

fatbandit 04-25-2005 01:21 PM

As with any product Martin, you are entitled to a 'cooling off' period. If you don't like the item, send it back and demand a refund. You have the right. Though my swap for the muff offer still stands :)

And this coursework is worth 80% of my mark, for a double GCSE. Gutted.

Thunder Fingers 04-25-2005 01:23 PM

i dont Want anything Fuzzy Fuzz stuff! I want Clean, i can live long on a realy Cheap Boss Pedal for thoose 2 seconds i might use it...:lol:

fatbandit 04-25-2005 01:26 PM

Psh. I want a pedal that does my coursework for me. And I would pay through the nose for it.

Radiobass81 04-25-2005 01:26 PM

Then why did you buy it!?

Thunder Fingers 04-25-2005 01:28 PM

[QUOTE=Radiobass81]Then why did you buy it!?[/QUOTE]

Becouse IM FU[I]C[/I]KIN STUPID! I dunno, i have a dist tone in my head that would fit, but this one dont have it!
and after it i will not buy any more, i will need one when i get guitar, so ill just get a boss...

Radiobass81 04-25-2005 01:31 PM

Why not keep it and use it with the guitar?

Thunder Fingers 04-25-2005 01:34 PM

becouse, then i can use the extra money on a p bass, and twopelu might get his steinberger earlier :p
