Not too sure about that 😉

Has someone been tweaking/tidying up the layout of this forum?!

I was thinking of posting on here but never did. My last disco was in January (which is unusual as I don't normally have any or have very few gigs in January and February after Christmas and New Year). I'm glad it did happen as that will very likely be my only one this year. All others have been cancelled or postponed until 2021 (and at this rate, it seems even that is pushing it). That is, except one wedding which was due to take place summer this year. They postponed it until the end of October. I said fine blah blah blah knowing they should postpone it longer. I'm now wa

Happy 2019 to all!

Indeed - thanks for keeping this site online, Chris.

Amen!

Well done Chris for keeping it online. I don't see the forum as having closed its doors as you can still post. I think it's more that it was 'upgrade in progress' for ages and people were driven away.

I am glad it does stay online. Does make you wonder though who is covering the costs and how long it will last.

Chris Pointon posted a reply here. It seems to have been removed...

Did you? How come?

Still cracking on with discos etc. Yes - the same avatar. Not much point changing it now! I wonder who else visits here from time to time? I only came by through chance. There are some useful old topics on here. Some no longer relevant due to technology changes etc, but most will be valid still.

The problem was that years ago, this forum was down for a very long time. By which time, people lost interest and likely moved on to other forums or social media etc. This was a great forum in 2004/2005/around that time.

I have some Samson LS2 speaker stands (see here: Stands). On the top pole is a bit of plastic that converts the stands from 25mm to the more common 35mm top hat fitting. I have lost one of the bits of plastic. I have emailed Samson but nothing back yet, and can't find anywhere online to buy them. Any ideas? Thanks.

I have found searching for 'slider knob' (oo-er) or similar is helping - still not quite there. Behringer wanted about £40 for the part (including shipping and VAT). No thanks. I have also tried plastic moulding companies to see if they could make a copy of an existing button (no problem) but of course there is a minimum order of about 1000 for these companies so I have ruled that out. Starting to get stuck..
