^i heard summer, but that could change- also, i think only the 150 watter will be out at the start, if it sells well, then they might bring out the 100 and 50 watters...

Title: Sambo U will want this :)
Post by: Dakine on April 12, 2006, 09:45:38 PM

ahh, so really aimed at "pro" first (i.e. 150W, OWWWWWWWWWW).
Unless it bombs (which I highly doubt) am sure will/should come out with smaller wattage ones.
Still like the layout of the Special Edt. though.

Sams gong for the UK remake "Brokeback Hillock" ;)

Rob... (runs back into hiding)

Post by: sambo on April 13, 2006, 12:17:48 AM

grrrrrrrr im sure if i knew what hillock meant id be really pissed off!!!!!!  :x  :evil:


EDIT: ok, so i googled hillock:  :?

"The displacement of a thin-film material that occurs when heated and cooled. Hillocks of aluminum are sometimes found in the aluminum interconnect metal on semiconductor devices."

what are you getting at here rob?

the epic journey of a boy over a large piece of discrepancy-frequented aluminum?

Title: Sambo U will want this :)
Post by: Kilby on April 13, 2006, 12:44:43 AM

Noun
S: (n) knoll, mound, hillock, hummock, hammock (a small natural hill)

Rhymes with pollock :)

Though I thought hammock was a sort of bed that prevented sailors acting like the stars of Brokeback Mountain.

Rob...

Title: Sambo U will want this :)
Post by: sambo on April 13, 2006, 12:46:42 AM

i see... also rhymes with pillock as well...  :?  :o

and yes a hammock is a bed isnt it???!!! where on earth do you get your definitions from...?!?!!!!

got to google and anter "define: hammock"

You also get this definination for hammock "An area where the ground level is raised above the level of the water."

In my days that was called either land or above water.

I wonder what the word to go along with this definition would be "An area where the water level is raised above the level of the ground."

Rob...

Post by: sambo on April 13, 2006, 01:16:57 AM

i dunno... its past midnight... i cant be bothered to get into the complexity of words and meanings....

but wait a sec... isnt it impossible for water level to be above the ground level? because then the water would be in mid-air????

Title: Sambo U will want this :)
Post by: Dakine on April 13, 2006, 01:20:45 AM

good god ppl.

was funny but then................. oh well.

And I guess Sambo don't know that the movie "BrokeBack Mountain" is about some gay (and I don't mean HAPPY) Cowboys.

Now what do ya make of Rob's statement? huh huh? LOL

Title: Sambo U will want this :)
Post by: Kilby on April 13, 2006, 01:27:08 AM

I was just releieved that the conversation ended up with cr@ppy definitions.

I would so hate to have to explain the term gay.

The water would be on the  ground, hence the terms, sea, ocean, river, lake or even puddle.

Title: Sambo U will want this :)
Post by: sambo on April 13, 2006, 12:42:36 PM

the ground.....


but yes marks right... you could have water above ground if it was suspended in something... i.e a glass.... but then the glass has to be standing on something, which in turn has to be standing on something else.... e.tc e.t.c. and it all leads back to the ground

Post by: 38thBeatle on April 13, 2006, 05:08:56 PM

suspend it from the ceiling or a nearby tree.

Title: Sambo U will want this :)
Post by: sambo on April 13, 2006, 05:14:17 PM

but beatle the tree is in turn connected to the ground.... although i spose the water could still be described as above ground....

i think marks plane idea is the best option...

although what is the definition of 'ground'? because up in the air in a plane, the floor could be describde as the 'ground'..... ?

theres gotta be a link here between this and the grounding in guitar electronics but i just cant think of it...

Title: Sambo U will want this :)
Post by: Dakine on April 13, 2006, 06:11:02 PM

Yeah, kinda different TO, however, bit costly.

Sambo, maybe a clear piece of plastic hose, normal cable (with an intentional "short") and some firefly's. Put the cable in the hose, fill with firefly's, then when ya play the short shocks the flys and they glow  :twisted:

Oh, and as for the ground/water FARCE.

What about a THUNDER CLOUD. Which is therefore FULL of precipitation (i.e. water) and FLOATS in the air! PHOOEY! :P

Title: Sambo U will want this :)

Title: Sambo U will want this :)
Post by: Kilby on April 13, 2006, 06:13:48 PM

I was going to suggest filling a clear plastic tube with Gin & tonic then you could get a friend to flash a UV lamp at it in time with your playing.

Once you get bored with that you can drink it :)

Rob...

Title: Sambo U will want this :)
Post by: sambo on April 13, 2006, 06:14:57 PM

HHAHAAA great description for the home-made cable LOL!

and as for thunder clouds.. well thats just cheating!!!! sure theres precipitation (water VAPOUR) but its not like 'water' water.....

Title: Sambo U will want this :)
Post by: Dakine on April 13, 2006, 06:15:55 PM

Hell
just let Sambo stand in his "above ground water" puddle on the floor, short the cable and see a light and dance show every time he plays a chord  :twisted:

just kiddin', I think  :D

Only because I am still a huge fan of The Sensational Alex Harvey Band (otherwise known as SHAB), and he was Alexs brother.

Give these a try http://www.youtube.com/results?search=alex+harvey&search_type=search_videos

Their version of Deliah still causes me to laugh watch Zal the guitarist and the bass player (who went on to play with Rory Gallagher) being slightly silly in the background.

They where the band that AC DC wanted to emulate.

Not only funny but great band too (the song Next is so intense it's scary).

Zal Clemnson (spelling ?) has a great guitar sound, but the song lyrics are totally mad sometimes.

give the other songs a try.

is the guy scottish? i had no idea- couldnt really tell from the deliliah song

Title: Sambo U will want this :)

The Next song reminds me of Jim Morrison's poetry+music ramblings.  Not my thing.

Title: Sambo U will want this :)
Post by: Kilby on April 13, 2006, 07:07:19 PM

Yeah they where / are Scottish.

Their stage act was very theatrical (search the web for descriptions).

Apparently AC DC idolised SAHB, and when ACDCs first TV appearence was when SAHB had to cancel an appearence on the Marc Bolan show (Alex fell into the orchestra pit a few days before).

They where a great rock band, and Zal later went on to join Nazareth.

Funny thing is I missed them the other week when they where playing in London (obviously without Alex as he is also dead)

Rob...

SAHB- great band - saw them play loads of times. That SAHB without Alex album was great too. Chris Glenn was the bassist I seem to recall and Hugh McKenna on keyboards- I think Hugh's brother played drums. Alex was very Scottish and Zal did indeed go on to join Nazareth. Are we showing our age here Rob or what?

Sort of, I never managed to see them as they had already split by the time I discovered music. although most of their albums where brilliant, they where one of those bands who seem to have been even better live.

I'm just after watching the verision of Give My Compliments on youtube and for the first time noticed the bass playing, not only is there space for everybody else to perform, some of the bass lines are not exactly obvious, jeez I love that.

I think I will have to see them when they play London.
