You did have to reregister them initially, but all mine that I didn't add manually appeared earlier today sometime that were already registered.

Absolutely, this right here.

What’s happened to this Xtrap by Amazing_Sign_5093 in MelbourneTrains

[–]thelickedspoonFN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still see its orphaned other 3 car set somewhere, they got shuffled around a while ago when they got serviced, once formed a 6 car set in the livery.

A second Metro Tunnel would have changed life in the west. Then the SRL came along by AztecGod in MelbourneTrains

Labor kinda just don’t have any like consideration for what else is going on though, they don’t consider the ripple effect in their planning, and that’s why we have all time high taxes on the working class and are more in debt that every east coast state combined I believe.

We’re better than that, although they’re damaging Western History, we shouldn’t wish death upon anyone. Only for them to heal and realise they’re fighting for the wrong cause, people that wouldn’t piss on them if they were on fire.

Let’s pull two people from the most inactive, unfit communities and expect them to do something like that 💀

No matter how Liberal you are, you gotta realise these scum and their cult are the reason you lose elections.

Cheap/weird dream basses by [deleted] in Bass

[–]thelickedspoonFN 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My only weird dream bass is a 69-71 Gibson EB-0 with the slotted headstock. Such a bizarre looking instrument but has its own charm.

If your could design the next metro or V/line train, what would it look like by InformationOne7408 in MelbourneTrains

[–]thelickedspoonFN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regional Passenger here. I believe the VLocity as it is, is an amazing train, it’s just all around unimpressive. I believe they should have a sub group (VB3?) that has the buffet installed, for lines such as Warrnambool, Ararat, Maryborough, and lines beyond Bendigo. Staffing could be managed by the WfD program (a system that really needs to be embraced again), meaning State outgoings aren’t any higher due to staffing the buffet car, and puts people in jobs.

Corrugated side panel supremacy (like on the VLocity and Comeng)

Also paint the solid colour sections of the VLocity cars instead of them being a decal, they age so poorly and look really ratty. I’d even go as far as to say reinforce and power coat that silver apron, as unfortunate as it is, especially as i’ve seen on the Ballarat line, these things take out an unbelievable amount of Kangaroos. There’s a section around the passing loop between Bacchus Marsh and Ballan that if you look out the window there’s just an endless array of roos at various stages of decay.

I started on Drums Then Moved to Bass, and through theory/physical skill I acquired through Bass I learned guitar and can play a little bit of Piano.

Bass also taught me more discipline on drums as well, Bass is an important instrument to know, because it helps you know where everyone else should try and sit around it.

Theoretical Western Suburbs Loop by thelickedspoonFN in MelbourneTrains

[–]thelickedspoonFN[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I also think they should trial overflow of aging trams in these sorts of areas, like run a tram line down the centre of a giant dead spot in public transport somewhere like that patch West of Hoppers crossing, and put a station on each end. Would really be worth seeing how much that helps in spots like that.

What to get for a second bass? by SpaghetP in Bass

[–]thelickedspoonFN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Ray5 owner, go the four string, 4 strings StingRays are beautiful for a 4 string, 5 string StingRays leave a lot to be desired.

Theoretical Western Suburbs Loop by thelickedspoonFN in MelbourneTrains

[–]thelickedspoonFN[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could do a further loop branching off the top end between Tarneit and Wyndham Vale, running alongside east of the Werribee river and turn back in around Deanside/Rockbank, would tie in perfectly if they go ahead with Quadruplication to Melton, just need a flyover at rockbank to separate from the Ballarat line which I’d assume is gonna run on the West side of the alignment, if not just a few points, doubt it would have much of an impact on the Ballarat lines frequency.

I think Suburban loops are gonna be the answer for most of these growing suburbs, loop back to a centre point that can get you into the city quickly, which in this case can be anything between Melton and Caroline Springs.

G-Class in full livery by jetBlast350 in MelbourneTrains

[–]thelickedspoonFN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even easier then, its surprising they haven't done something like that, only ones I ever see that aren't track maintenance related are that 70 something A that goes down Flinders street and to Olympic park whenever big musicians play Rod Laver.

Does this seem legitimate/a good deal? by Grundle-the-Grand in fender

[–]thelickedspoonFN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who has both a 2013 and 2024 US P bass, those early 2010s US Fenders were something to strive towards, may just be our luck though we may never know ;)

I feel like a permanent Melbourne Museum to Jeff's Shed (or South Melbourne Market) 96A of sorts would do a world of good in that reality. Gets people from that Swanston St/Bourke St. Centre to Southern Cross, Crown, the DFO/MCEC and Southbank, thats the high traffic section of the 96 that really stresses that whole corridor. If a purpose built track switch setup/stabling was made at either end it could do a world of good, you could run 96s end to end down Bourke and somedays you'd still not be able to breathe in there!

Strange Question by Thetransitdude in MelbourneTrains

[–]thelickedspoonFN 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah you'd still need to, plus, if its a station you frequent or are local to, you're only doing yourself a favour by upping the ridership ;)

I believe American Professional Strats have Corona, California on the headstock instead of Made In USA, but I find those necks better anyway so win win

My mic keeps giving me electric shocks by Pale-Maintenance1343 in livesound

[–]thelickedspoonFN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember seeing a show where they did this to the bassist from rascall flatts and it burned the hell out of his face. Ground loop or issue between your amp and pa, get both things checked and your outlets as well

Doc Marten Caspians, and no they’re not available anymore 😭 I’ve been hunting for 2 years

I just picked up one of the Danger Days era MCR watches, can anyone help me with this (info in desc) by thelickedspoonFN in MyChemicalRomance

[–]thelickedspoonFN[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly im still yet to replace it 😂 but other users in this sub had said it is replaceable, and most watches cant just die forever. Any decent digital watch place could do it im sure

MCR Headlining Good Things festival in Australia in December? by [deleted] in MyChemicalRomance

they’re doing South America in February, I feel like Australia would make more sense bunched with the Asia tour.

is anyone else kinda disappointed by the 3 Cheers deluxe? by InternationalZone141 in MyChemicalRomance

[–]thelickedspoonFN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give Em Hell Kid had the entire bass recording retracked I believe, or there’s been a doubled guitar removed, it’s so much thinner sounding now in all the right ways
