I served Phil McGuire and Fernando Pasquinelli (remember him?), on seperate occasions, when I worked in Tesco's at Danestone. I remember McGuire buying value cola. Seen Billy Connolly out and about a couple of times.

" RICARDO KAKA': "I want to get old at Milan"
1/14/2009
MILANELLO - "I want to get old at Milan," declared today Ricardo Kaka at Milanello, to the microphones of Sport Mediaset. "My objective is that of becoming, in the future, the captain of this team. City? I already refused important offers."
From Milan's website.

We are playing our first gig at Cafe Drummonds with touring metal band "Romeo Must Die" with local support from Enrapture and Set Light Our Kingdom.
What happened to that gig on the 22nd of Feb? Has it been canceled?

I think Bill only had his vintage tube screamer with him for added distortion to his Marshall plexi when I saw Liars Dice on Friday, he had an MXR EQ for a boost aswell, but I didn't notice him using it. Infact, I don't think I've seen him use any boss pedal except a TU-2 tuner for a while now. I think Jamie may use a DS-1 or something with FUBAR, not too sure though, some boss distortion anyway. iirc it sounded not bad but not as nice as a tube screamer. I've just never been massively impressed with boss distortions.

Avoiding JCM 900's is seconded, I'm fairly sure they are regarded as one of the worst all valve amps Jim Marshall has ever put his name to. I'd go for a DSL50 from the JCM 2000 range. They can be a bit buzzy and fizzy, but imo that's only an issue if you are playing stuff that isn't hard rock or metal. Only problem with buying a head is that you would obviously need a cab to run it through, which would probably add an extra couple of hundred to the price. If that is an issue I would look into a JCM2000 DSL 401 combo. I've also heard good things about the Laney LC30 combo, not heard one in person, but might be worth a look.
On the topic of distortion pedals, I'd say avoid Boss, try an Ibanez Tube Screamer or, if you want to invest serious money, a Tonebone.

is it worth it if I didn't enjoy the short demo and I'm still happy with PES?
Yes, you may be overlooking the badness of PES this year due to the novelty of Liverpool being one of the official teams, which for you is probably a major thing. Once you get used to the shooting in FIFA scoring goals becomes a lot easier, though I still can't score from further than 30 yards.

Halfway through my second season with the Dons, highlight so far was showing Inter how it's done in the group Stages of the ECC. 5-0 at the Giuseppe Meazza and 3-0 at "Town Park" or whatever the fuck they call the random ground that actually isn't a million miles away from being Pittodrie. Lee Miller, Darren Mackie and Zander Diamond are gods!

Did anyone blow up Megaton?
Yeah, the nuclear explosion is fucking awesome to watch, I killed Burke and Tenpenny after to vaguely regain some karma (and to get Tenpenny's sniper). I seem to keep doing what I think is the morally right thing then losing karma for it, does this mean I'm really a bastard at heart?
-
Just saw footage of him driving to Liverpool's training ground on Sky Sports News, looked like he was on his mobile. Wonder if they will nick him for that aswell....

i bought it!
and its probably the biggest pile of crap ever,clashing strips,laggy gameplay,online mode is useless,crashes everytime there is a goal kick,taking it back tomorrow:down:
What version have you got? Coz I've had none of those issues with mine (for 360).

I have an SVT-410HLF but at one gig I went through a B series 410HLF cab (the other dude offered me use of his cab to save me taking my own), it sounded O.K but the SVT is notably nicer.

I shall be heading down on the 30th then. I've been meaning to catch you guys/hear James' self-proclaimed amazing tone for a while now.

Why would I sell them face value when I can easily make a profit.
Nit, just nit. Go away.

I'v been a pro evo player for ages, but this year fifa is the boss. .
Ditto, whoever thought "I know, let's make Pro slow, clunky and give players absolutely no chance of producing realistic flowing play! OH! AND LET'S MAKE RIGHT STICK SOME SHITTY MANUAL PASS THING THAT PUNTS THE BALL OUT OF THE PARK INSTEAD OF TRICKS AND GIVE THEM NO OPTION TO CHANGE IT!!!!!" should be shot.
I've been a Pro Evo man for years, and now I've converted to FIFA. This year it's just so much better.

Not a fan of Gallows in general and I can't say I like that cover much, however, Coheed's version of The Trooper and Machine Head's cover of Hallowed Be Thy Name are both amazing!

You should be able to get an Epiphone Les Paul or SG for that price. PRS S.E series guitars would also be worth a look for that sort of budget. If it's something with single coils you want then I second the suggestion of a Mexican Strat/Tele, however if you hunt ebay you might even manage to find an American Standard series for that sort of price. Even if they are about 400-500 it would be worth the extra money for the gains in playability and sound quality.

A few post-rock bands I would highly recommend:
Explosions in the Sky
God is an Astronaut
The Evpatoria Report (who have just gone on hiatus or something )
-
Folk that come into my work (a Shell garage) to buy only shopping, not petrol or diesel, then complain about the prices when there is a Tesco about 5 minutes away. People who come into my work when it's dead quiet and I'm getting some peace only for 10 Lambert & Butler or Richmond, strangely I don't mind if they buy any other brand of fag.

you get a warm feeling inside when you mange to remove a head, both arms and both legs with a decent magnum shot using VATS
Agreed, Bloody Mess perk FTW!!
-
Bugger me, how you fitting all them in!?
I think they are having bands both rooms at the same time, not sure though. What's the story on Downfall? I'll be gutted if they ain't playing! Sorry to hear about Dead Metal as well! Hope your guitar players problem isn't too serious and is sorted soon.

caramel wispa
A million times yes! Were they not called Wispa gold or something? Awesome sweetie! Along with Wispa Mint and Wispaccino (i think this existed) I hope they bring back the whole range!
My list is:
Lion Bar
Double Decker
Reisen
Giant Strawbs
and 1 single Lindt Lindor (more than one and I feel sick!)
-
I seem to remember speaking to Jenni about it after, she had no sympathy for you either!
-
odd monitor face plant.
That was the funniest thing I've ever seen in The Tunnels. Best part was looking around at everyone else there, they were all wearing faces of sympathy and looking at eachother like "shit, is he ok?!". Meanwhile I'm doubled over laughing.

we created this forum
I'm doubting the validity of this, perhaps a member of admin could verify it?
