  1. I like this thread. Some interesting selections and varied tastes but seriously WKD's!!!

    I'm hoping Santa brings a globe drinks cabinet for my man cave but not holding my breathe!!

    My drinks cupboard contains-

    Gin:

    Heather rose infused gin- picked up at the Belmont street market - surprisingly pleasant

    Hendricks

    Bombay sapphire

    Gordon's - for my mother in law, it's all she deserves!

    Whisky:

    Dalwhinnie 15y.o

    Talisker 10y.o limited run

    Glendronach revival 12y.o

    Highland park 10y.o

    A 1981 Highland park, bottled 2009(I think) part of my wedding present from my wife.

    Glenfiddich 12y.o - for my ungrateful family who don't deserve any of the other malts.

    Grouse

    Champagne:

    Bollenger NV

    Misc:

    Koko Kanu coconut rum

    Morgan's spiced

    Smirnoff

    Drambuie

    Some Stella and some crabbies ginger beer. Various flavours for the wife!

  2. God... That one got me... I think being last on is like a 'last but not least', sort of like the main band to play. I don't know if you'd call it headlining but I'm chuffed we're on last!

    I've always hated playing last and its for a few reasons. 1. Ridiculously early sound check. 2. More temptation to get pissed up to the point where your playing is shite. 3. Horribly late stage time usually. 4. Less time after to get pissed up (if you have resisted the temptation to do it in the 5 hours or so you've been hanging about since sound check finished.

    Give me first anyday. Rock up last, quick line check/ half a song to set levels. Play set. Hit bar!!! Don't fuck off straight afterwards bough that's bad form. Watch the other bands!!

  3. Rodriguez for me, the technique as he chests it and spins around is just amazing and to top it off it has a lovely clip off the bar as it goes in.

     

     

    In other news everything is going mad at FIFA. Could this be a pivotal day which eventually leads to the end of this corrupt regime?

    I agree with the Rodriguez strike. On top of the amazing technique to take the ball with back to goal, control it, spin, and flush the volley, there is awareness before the ball arrives to him to have a wee look over his shoulder for the options. You can see it in the replay from behind him at 21 seconds in. Blink and you'll miss it but its there... Goals always look better when they go in off the bar too!

  4. Hey guys, 

     

    I've been offered one of the above and some cash in exchange for my Les Paul. I'm after a high end acoustic but have had my heart set on a martin. Does anyone have any experience with this level of taylor? I'd be interested to hear some opinions before I decide to head down to try it out... 

     

    I know I wont really be sure until I try it but I have a, probably unjustified, dislike to taylor guitars for some reason.

     

    Any way any opinions etc would be appreciated
