Duncy H Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 I want to ride but everyone seems to work at the weekend. Booo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 hola today recived frame now painted ok. sorry is not possible RAW with heat treatment (use sandblast) please send me a example or picture what color you like ok thanks Courtesy of Marino, honestly, what the f**k?! Surely when you have asked for a raw finish at the very beginning you'd expect to be told this beforehand. This has thoroughly pissed me off and completely ruined what I'd planned my bike to end up like. Any advice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewEH1 Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 (edited) One of the 'best' bike shops in town can't manage to build a rear wheel correctly...grrrr riding tomorrow is now in jeopardy.

Should learn to build my own wheels but I don't have the patience. It's really easy once you get the hang of it, and after building a few you don't even need look at instructions again. Worth the time learning and save yourself some £££. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoze Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 The gig we just played was hands down the worst piece of live music i have ever experienced. f**k. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skoze Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Everyone has a rough one now and again dude, put it behind you and move on to the next gig. True, just the circumstances that have seriously pissed me off! followed a very good Brighton band and we were supporting The Monochrome Set who are pretty huge in the whole post-punk scene (been around since the early 70's and Graham Coxon quotes them as one of his big influences...) and my bandmates were both too hungover to get it right. So annoyed, was just embarrassing more than anything f**king up so noticeably to a packed club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 You got any vids or anything of you guys playing (not that gig obviously). Would love to have a listen! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Are you sure it was actually that bad? Were you guys just not particularly tight or were there genuine f**k-ups 'n' stuff? I know I've played gigs where I thought things went like shit but people in the audience seemed to be cool with it. It may not be as bad as you think... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoze Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 (edited) We got slow-clapped by only two people out of the best part of 100 after one song haha. Some were alright but some of it was just beyond salvage, our guitarist completely missed a bar somehow so i was still happily playing the chorus while he'd run on to the verse, effects that were either set wrong or straight up not plugged in, my amp cut out before the first song, drummer got so off-beat a fair few times, guitar solos made mostly of wrong notes, the lights being too dim to see what the f**k you're doing because apparently it was gonna look amazing, the list could really go on. Ah, venting in here is as therapeutic as ever. Anyway, a video for mr fox from wednesday when we weren't shit in London; http://youtu.be/nQrIC8j9fLM Edited February 2, 2013 by Skoze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD™ Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 (edited) This is absolutely because I decided not to come down at the last minute, although you didn't know I was planning to anyway... But yea, everyone has shit gigs whether in their own heads or reality, the best thing is to learn from it while also accepting that it WILL happen again.
