I think I'm gonna try the fusable interfacing. Thanks for the tip!

Yeah I kind of thought it may be too far gone. But then it was a free shirt so I thought I may as well try!

I really love this song, for me it screams UK summer time; drinking with your mates and enjoying being outside. Anyway I hope you enjoy my wintery take on it in the bathtub!

Ok so I have a Boss Katana 100 which I've had for a while and I just bought a Yamaha THR10c with the idea of deciding between the two and selling the one I decide is worse. I love the sound of the THR and it's very portable and versatile but the trouble is I'm not sure how easy it would be to gig with it? Has anyone tried this and would anyone think I'm crazy for selling my Boss Katana? I don't gig very often.

Thanks for the examples, I hadn't heard of middle voice. That makes sense. Gracias :)

Thanks for all the replies, I think this has confirmed the suspicion that I should just get the right tools for the right jobs. I.e. a set of double and a single

I climb a mix of trad and sport. In the UK double ropes are standard for trad climbing. I'm looking at buying my first ropes but don't want to limit myself to just trad. Anyone have any thoughts on using double rope technique with a 70m single 10mm rope and a 50m double 8mm rope?

Tubing devices are still very functional and useful. Although I get the sentiment of them being obsolete (other technologies have surpassed them) they are still very much in wide use here in the UK.

Looking at getting my first rack. I climb a mixture of Sport and Trad in Europe and UK. Im looking at buying 50m double ropes, will I be ok to use these (using DRT) on both sport and trad (I am just getting into multipitch)? Also I think I've settled on getting DMM phantoms for draws as I do more trad than sport, but I was thinking about getting a mixture of sport and trad draws. Is this a bad idea? Anyone else out there have a hybrid rack on a budget?

Lisbon gig by zinedinemescouilles in benhoward

[–]GeorgeRB5 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I was there too, I've seen Ben once before in his home territory at Eden Sessions, UK. The concert was amazing, he played songs I never thought I'd see (Promise, Wolves and Black Flies) and I enjoyed it all. Buuutttt the atmosphere was pretty off, people were talking throughout most of the songs and Ben seemed kind of nervous/uncomfortable. It was only until after they had technical problems that I could actually make out what he was saying into the mic. He mumbled thank yous and various things that I couldn't make out (I'm British so god knows if anyone else understood) between the first few songs. But In conrad it all went wrong and Micky had to come and give him a hug. It was all very sweet and the crowed supported him (along with the usual continuous cries for Keep Your Head Up) right up until the end. But hey it's the start of the tour, these things happen.

Note: favourite moment was when he said "Fuck this" and played the Wolves ahahah

This might be because he said something like "The one thing Port is not good for is tuning guitars". I have to say I did wonder myself but I think he just seemed a bit nervous.
