Good luck finding a bass player, replacing members can be hard!

You or lyall will have to play bass in the studio if you havent found anyone, then when it is licenced to nuclear blast for worldwide release, that will mean more royalties for you!!!!

Just lack of commitment. He was willing to play gigs with us but as soon as we said "right, you're gonna need this much for the studio" he ran off crying like a girl. It's a shame because he's a really good bassist.

Performing the bass parts isn't the problem, because I already know them anyway, it's really just about having a 4th member to share the recording costs with.

don't worry martin, i'll join. i'm well rich and i can play the bass. i love emo and my hair naturally falls across my eyes, also i wear vans chequerd slip-ons and boot-cut jeans from primark. my favourite pass times are shopping and holding hands, i've got 100 girl friends too. i also hate thrash metal, its for gays.

so... am i in?

Well can you start?

Heretic won't last much longer, I'm still hoping on being asked to join Kasabian...

Martin & Lyall = Francis Rossi & Rick Parfitt of UkThrash

Oh here we go here we go here we go...

At least Quo's 3 chord progressions sounded good

Isn't it quite wishful thinking to hope to recruit a new member just in time for recording, so they can foot a quarter of the studio fee?

I can't see many people signing up for this pretty transparent ploy of yours, even if they are keen on your music. Would it not be better, if possible, to postpone the recording until you've actually found a bass player?

Not really. They're looking for a new bassist too, not just money.

What he said, except I don't play the ghey bass.

Who needs shoes when you have insanely cheap boots?

Lord Ashbey does have a point though. Maybe it would be easier to get a new boy if they didn't have to pay lots of money for a recording almost straight away.

Well we've nearly found someone any way who's prepared to do it. As long as he can play the songs well enough he's in.


Postpone? Ha!

That's good news if you've found a goodun. Good luck to you.

I don't think there any bassists in this...office... but if there are, good luck to em.
