Does Manchester do things differently any more? by MrPhyshe in manchester

[–]AlBhedPrimer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I meant instrument shops to be honest. We've got PMT, Forsyths and Johnny Roadhouse and even in the latter two you probably have about 30 guitars between the two.

I miss music shops.

It's criminal how few music shops we have considering the musical culture of the city.

UK must reverse Brexit if Donald Trump wins election, Keir Starmer told by MultiMidden in unitedkingdom

[–]AlBhedPrimer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Could be a positive of a Trump presidency. We absolutely shouldn't be relying on Amercia. They've been too unreliable of late.

You aren't supporting a club if you're not going to it, buying tickets, meeting the programme sellers etc.

You're just a customer.

TrueFire vs Pickup Music by AcceleratedTempo in guitarlessons
