grah, duhhhh, i do know my geography, even if i cant spell it...I, T?

honestly i was trying to inject a little irony.

we get similar problems down here in wales where councils are forcing pubs that have live music nights to employ licensed bouncers, effectively doubling the cost of a nights entertainment. they're just money grabbers, they seem to forget that councils were created for the benefit of people not the opposite

if i enterpret your song correctly, it's about how music has changed since the rock and roll era. then again about cambodia (i think it was) pol pot, ditching technowlogy and starting over at year 1 (except for himself of course)

the movies always paint a rosey picture, the only death that seems to matter is the hero...

so, very thought provoking jeff, full marks

so wigster, if your unlikely to post 100 posts like the 3 you've done, what is the problem? the forum is for chordie members to discuss stuff in a nice way. also to ask and recieve help in matters musical or computer stuff. i'm in my 60's also and i dont understand a lot of the tech-talk so i just get on with what i know. if the autoscroll works on your laptop why not just use that?

chordie is here for all even the ones that are here to take and not give back

i've recieved beamers words, even though i'm not really that godly they look good. i havent tried them next to the track yet, i'll do that a little later. i'm waiting with baited breath to hear beamers words sung over the track.

revolution in the air, methinks?

it gave me more of a "castles made of sand" feel, i may be biased as thats my fav hendricks

hi robert, i'd say to call in for a cuppa, but you'll be about as far from me there as you are now from hafan-y-mor, which is north wales, i'm way down south. but enjoy anyway, i'm sure you will.

i've been buying and using PA's and speakers since the 70's. as has been mentioned above leave a little head room, eg; 100 watt amp - 150 watt speakers (combined) for clarity of sound and avoidance of blowing the cones. back then we'd try to get the lowest ohmage to be able to push out the greater wattage. but with the last set of speakers i bought it seems to be the other way round?
must remeber that the size of your connecting leads also adds resistence, so the thicker the better.

EACH 8 OHM SPEAKER YOU ADD REDUCES THE OHMAGE ; 1 - 8 OHM SPEAKER = 8 OHMS. 2 8 OHM SPEAKER = 4 OHMS. 3 8 OHM SPEAKERS = 2.66 OHMS (or something like that).

best thing is to check out on-line tutorials if your still confused, i've tried to make it simple.

hi ark, yes it's true what you say, but how many times have you heard a song on the radio for instance and when you go to find it, it's not called what you thought it was, ergo; the hook! so the song was mistitled?

hi quirke, and welcome to chordie. it only goes to prove that no one is infallible. thank you for pointing out the error, hopefully someone further up the food chain will amend the mistake.

good idea, i usually get my inspiration in the shower, reminds me, i need a waterproof writing pad.....
