  1. It's okay - I don't live in Aberdeen anymore.

    So, in actual fact, it's you who can fuck off.

    PS - Were you bullied at school?

    Funnily enough, I was bullied for being a "nigger lover" at school because I was mates with some African and Malaysian kids...as someone quite rightfully pointed out above "every single white Scottish person is racist, right?" Where i grew up that was pretty much true!

  2. Yup, under EU drug dealers and unemployable have a right to do this in Aberdeen instead... doctors and other professional staff have a right to fuck caring about people back home and come and work here instead as bus drivers / toilet cleaners because the pay is better than their profession back home...little shit kids here with their family can trash the place and beat up other kids and throw the xenophobic/racist card at anyone fighting back (despite most of the benig the most racist people Ive ever come across)....I wish the people from Aberdeen who live like that would fuck off aswell...the council have helped setup ghettos within the worst areas of Aberdeen, and its like the black panthers trying to integrate with the klu klux klan...and the people who don't particularly care a shit about either of the two groups are the ones caught up in the crossfire...I certainly don't feel particularly safe anymore...at least 10 years ago when I didn't feel safe I knew the faces and what they were saying...

  3. I confess...I wish the vast majority of Polish, Lithuanian, Russian, whatevers would just fuck off. Aberdeen was shit enough before. A good friend of mine and colleague is Polish...and he feels stronger about it than I do! But he's not a racist, wife beating, drug dealing type with 6 kids to support. We have enough of them in Aberdeen already and I wish they would fuck off too. I didn't realise drug dealer / pimp / prostitute/lap dancer / toilet cleaner / road sweeper / bus driver was a job that we were in such high demand for and have no one capable of doing here that we need to double Aberdeen's population for. I work in a global company and come in contact with all cultures/ethnicity etc everyday. and would welcome the majority of people I work with with open arms...but seriously...what the fuck is going on...Poland can't be that bad that Printfield or Logie or Tillydrone seem like exotic dream getaways?!

    This is why I don't vote...

    I hate whites...

  4. This maybe doesn't belong in "musical" discussion as its not really music, but is anyone interested in harsh noise/power electronics type stuff? (like Sickness, Prurient, Bizarre Uproar..etc) Am thinking of organising a low key gig performing this sort of aural butchery which would be free to attend for anyone interested in premature deafness...just wanted to know if anyone would turn up...practiced 3 hours of this at cap toms on saturday and it went pretty well, its a great sized place for it, I don't know what the bands in the adjacent rooms must have thought...but would be good to share our noise with others...does anyone else make noise and want to perform aswell?

  5. This feature isn't in Cubase...its always a good idea to save your projects with plug ins disabled for this reason. But you can get around it by opening the cubase log file (cubaseSX.log or something) and finding which plug in was causing the problem. Uninstall plug in, open file, disable the plug in, save it and then reinstall plug in. Should be able to get it back from there.

  6. Ace, will be spending a lot of time reading that...Its surprised me aswell when the odd one liner has found its way back into an episode that was never originally aired in the UK (and I knew all these episodes word for word, I remember watching it on cable when it first aired) Some of the BBC cuts just kill the episodes..one of the funniest jokes ever was flanders trimming his mustache and thanking Homer then homer goes "you dirty bast..." and a quick change to a shot of him dropping money in the swear jar. Im sure there are lots of other political cuts that just ruin episodes aswell (princess Di, twin towers etc.)

  7. Will be clearing some stuff very soon so this will be free to a good home, providing you can collect..

    Philips CDR 770 - serperate CDR - records to Audio CDR only...BUT...is very temporamental when recording and usually fails. But works fine as a seperate CD unit.

    Marantz CD player seperate unit - black

    Sound City PA50 - valve powered PA head, worked last time checked

    2 x MASSIVE Aiwa 300W stereo speakers floor standing, these things are huge and are very loud and very good...very 80's wooden look

    2 x National Panasonic stereo speakers - can't remember wattage, sound fine enough

    CRT 17" Monitor - white

    MAUDIO USB 49 key midikeyboard - one key is broken and it doesn't seem to work on USB anymore but still works over MIDI (it takes power over USB tho)

    Guillemot maxi studio isis 8in/out PCI sound card and breakout box - only works in windows98...

  8. They should ditch all the commercial CD's and stick to 2nd hand/independents....move to smaller premises, sack everyone under 35, ban all instore appearances, charge anyone who wants to "listen" to a record (this is worth a few million surely with those knobs who take 90 12"s to the counter and spend 9 hours listening to them before deciding theres nothing worthwhile)...stock tshirts in sizes larger than XXXXS...stop playing dance/techno over the stereo (or hipster shit, whatever is in just now)...and if all else fails..set up a pirating operation in the basement, producing bootlegs of commercial cd's and profit big time on the sales!! It worked in russia...

  9. It's hate move of the pick up selector and change of jack i don't like mainly. The maple neck is something i think just doesn't suit some guitars. Epiphone had a les paul with a maple neck too which i didn't like. I think i might be easier on it if it had the traditional tortoise shell that jazzmasters are most often paired with. I love jazzmasters and love the most recent squires so i'm sure it will be lovely to play:)

    +1 on the maple necks....I have never liked them on any guitars to be honest, but yeah there are some which it just doesn't go with...it ruins those squiers, and as for gibsons...

    thats just wrong!! :)

  10. All the D16 plug ins are amazing, especially Devastator and Toraverb, they have some new ones (phaser and chorus) I havent tried yet but if they are good as the others they should be great. The Abbey Road plug ins are awesome (espcially the EQ boxes) and for drums, can't beat BFD.

  11. Marge: (gasps as she bursts into Homer's mansion) Oh, my god, you're a junkie!

    Homer: (moaning) I need it...

    Marge: I'm getting you off this stuff!

    Homer: But I need it!

    Marge: No, you don't!

    - cut scene to Homer in hospital -

    Marge: Unfortunately, as I later learned, that wasn't heroin. It was insulin. Homer really did need those injections

    =================

    Moe: Oh, I wasn't trying to steal your watch. I--I--I was just coming on to you.

    Man at Bar: Okay, let's go back to my place.

    Moe: Oh, boy.

    =================

    Lou: [observing some police attack dogs] Gee, they look pretty mad.

    Chief Wiggum: Yeah, I've been starving them, teasing them, singing off key...mee my ma mo...mee my ma may...go get em boys

    [Dogs attack Chief Wiggum instead]

    =================

    Ralph: Wait, mister, you're drinking a candle. You don't want to get

    wax in your mouth, do you?

    Homer: [slyly] Maybe I do, son. Maybe I do.

    ================

    Cheif Wiggum: Bake him away toys!

    Lou: What you say chief?

    Chief Wiggum: Do what the kid says.

    YouTube - The Simpsons bake him away toys!

  12. Two of these

    Audio Technica AT2020 Studio Condenser Microphone | DV247

    25509_p.jpg @ 90 each

    Two SHURE SM57's @90 each

    You can use some crappy karaoke mics on your toms, unless you're recording a drummer who plays a lot of tribal stuff there are only going to be the odd time the toms are needed, make a good recording of the toms using the condesor mics and a spot mic with the 57 then use drumagog or similar to replace the badly recorded karaoke mic toms. TBH...if you place your condensor mics to record the whole kit as opposed to as overheads, you won't even need a mic on the toms, or on the snare...the fewer the mics the better, especially for demos...look out for a free Transient Designer plugin that you can google, it should be able to craft the kick and snare channels into tighter sounding hits that will cut through more and just them to emphasise what was already recorded by the condensors...

  13. That was gud.

    Thought the whole remarrying sub plot was a little unnecessary and poorly scripted, plus it wasn't really tied up at the end.

    Looking forward to seeing if they make more based on this series' success.

    Shane has hinted at This Is England '90 where they have moved on to be ravers...
