    Recording I made

    Yeah, the quality is terrible and the amp is crackly. I just wonder what you think of the bass playing - and of the song as a whole. Is it worth continuing in this style or just jacking it in? Link Removed Thanks in advance.

    Thanks lads. Update: I went to the owner of the establishment today and he says that favourites are The Kinks and Pink Floyd. Guess there's not much effort involved there, then. :) Falkirk is the town And most of the bands in the area tend to be -core metal bands and indie pop bands. There...

    I don't want to fake any issues. I'm just looking for suggestions on songs to cover. Apologies if this is the wrong forum, I'm a bit pissed. :P

    Got that covered - I'm wearing a fez, the drummer is wearing a leopard print wooly hat and the guitarist is wearing a cowboy hat. The logic is, if we look stupid, then it's memorable, and if we sound stupid, it's because we look stupid.
