Re: Get better Andy!
Mate, I had no idea. I'm glad to hear you're back and you have been so well looked after. You're a much-loved man and for damn good reason. There's nothing I can say that hasn't been said already...

Re: A Non-Anonymous Section..?
I don't know, it depends on where and how forcefully it's inserted.
Nelson Montana, or 'PlangentMusic'.

Re: Options for miking drums
Interesting. Generally I don't recommend Glyn Johns for live applications for four reasons:

Re: Options for miking drums
The sound mixer is a good product but I think you're much better off getting separates.
There isn't much of a price difference if you buy a separate system and the Sabian system is very limited if...

Re: Options for miking drums
Samson are a reasonably budget live choice. I've had some fair results with them in a studio setting but I've had much better results from other microphones - my current work studio has a set of...

Re: Why don't pop songs have real drums?
In terms of songwriting going 'downhill', I'm not sure if that's the case but if it is there is a plausible explanation.

I can mostly get along with Simon Phillips. His session playing in the 80s is unparalleled. I can usually tell its him without having to check any notes but the playing still sounds perfectly...
