  1. joy division burning airlines idlewild akimbo fighting red adair breather resist empire builder stapleton the van pelt aereogramme drive like jehu lift to experience aconite thrill hmmm, this is an easy game. why is that it's nigh on impossible to come up with a good band name?
  2. joe does look a lot like phil it's slightly eerie
  3. Reading on my pals facebook earlier that Chris Maguire was getting in his face and giving it the "don't you know who I am?" chat in Snafu last night. He pushed this guy too far and was promptly decked and brought back down to earth with a bump or two
  4. cheers for your input, these amps don't really pop up on the 2nd hand market much, when they do it is for around 1000 + postage. It aint really been used that much and it's in good condition.
  5. *SIGNATURE* Randy Rhodes Flying V shame i don't have any of those old fanzines anymore....
  6. megginson had an excellent loan spell at arbroath last year knocking in 4/5 goals in about 6 games. Also did ok for the dons in pre season too from reports I heard.
  7. i think it's the vietnam built as opposed to korea or usa: not that it has much difference as the board/components are slm and the tubes are sovteks. dennis marshall reckons that the build quality and component quality is excellent; thats good enough for me i'll hold off on bass chat jei; I know I can get a quick sale there but if I can pass a quality amp onto someone locally it reduces my stress levels and does someone a favour at this price (as Woody has mentioned). Woody, if yer serious about it drop me a line.
  8. Ampeg: Classic Series - SVT-CL (more photos on gumtree ad) Mint condition Ampeg SVT CL head for sale Bought this head about 3 years ago although it has barely been used in the past 18 months due to me playing more guitar and playing less music in general. Pretty much one of the best off-the-shelve heads that money can buy, the SVT Classic is used worldwide by all sorts of musicians. The amp is very simple, one small panel of dials making it is very easy to dial into great tone regardless of whether you are recording, playing in a small room or playing in a big venue (one of the reasons why I switched from a Mesa 400+). Whilst this amp can provide a crystal clear, precise clean tone with appropriate low and high end eqalisation; it's real value is in the classic Ampeg growl! The sound is perfectly balanced regardless of fretting and the mid selections offer great flexibility depending on the type of room / instrument you are playing. I used a Fender Jazz for the majority of the time with this amp and the two are a match made in heaven. Terrific sustain, great mid and the ability to change the tone instantly if required mid song. The Valves inside are Sovteks and they should have a good few years of life in them yet (depending on how much you play). This amp also has the self biasing setting which means that you can replace the valves yourself without any problems. As for build quality, the thing is indestructable, it's pretty heavy but the handles on either side allow great leverage to carry for distance. Some folk buy flight cases for these heads but I never needed to as it was always packed well in the van and I never went flying with them (thank christ at that weight!) I am pretty gutted to be selling the amp, given that I thought I'd have this for the rest of my days. I am buying a new house and need some extra capital meaning I have had to part with some prized posessions (I'm trying dearly to hold onto my usa jazz bass!) 925 is a very good price and I am not really open to negotiation on it. You don't see a lot of these going second hand because people don't really part with them. Happy to answer any discussions or discuss. If you know anyone looking for an amp or have been moaning at your bass player to get a decent amp, then get em in touch with me: it seriously doesn't get much better than the CL. AMPEG SVT CL 300w Bass Amplifier Head Guitars, Guitar Amplifiers for Sale Dundee/Aberdeen Dundee if it doesnt sell in the next few weeks I'll be ebaying it, probably above this price.
  9. "vile human being" at very best
  10. villa don't look like doing much and the geordies are all over them! in the bag, maybe even 5!
  11. gruelling match against one of the top teams today, I come in; switch on espn for the villa/newc game and just noticed that Orko from Glasgow are being used as the backing track. Mental
  12. montrose 3 Arbroath 0 what a day. what a feeling. I have genuinely forgotten what it feels like when you win a game and to watch a team full of confidence who believe that they can go out and win a game against superior opposition was a joy. After what has been a fucking horrendous 2 years of utter drivel, stress, heartache and foul moods; to watch us go out and gub our biggest rivals was priceless. Absolutely fucking brilliant. Tweed got it absolutely spot on tactically today (for the first time in a long time), YAAAAS MIN.
  13. ive done bits of coaching over the last 3 years or so, considering doing the badges at some point but I don't know if I could be arsed managing a pub league team, which is generally where most with no footballing pedigree or affiliations to the youth sides start off.... you always have 3 or 4 committed guys who will run through walls for you but the rest (generally the better players) lack any kind of discipline, respect and intelligence on a football field. You find yourself struggling to field teams in winter and half of them are hungover as sin and couldn't tackle a fish supper. As for tactics, ha ha ha ha..... When it works and you see guys learning lessons, adopting new attitude and improving on and off the ball; it's a good feeling.
  14. that liverpool game was boring....
  15. Scotland (not the towns and cities mind), iceland, south africa, canada, new zealand
  16. asva: absolutely devastating live. On record it's a load of twaddle recorded in a dry cave this town needs guns. I do like the album but it's flat as a pancake and lacks dynamic, whereas live, they are all sorts of teckle in decades decline. crushing live, isn't captured on record. probably thousands more but those are three that really stick out....
  17. adrian crowley is affa tempting but i'll not be around that weekend
  18. 93rd minute penatly sunk us 2-1 play is resumed.....
  19. that bugger needs to stop mumbling words. on their later stuff he rarely stoppped humming and singing. being honest, barring the odd decent song; I bloody hate this band. I'd happily stone them to death....
