Just a little tune I came up with using my looping pedal. I'm new to the electric guitar, haven't had one since I was a teenager, and I need to learn how to solo. But the backing loop is pretty sound. Have a listen, like.

Not sure about influences
It's hard to say what influences me, I like hip-hop and drum and bass, but I can't make those. I guess stuff like The Smiths might have an influence on me, but I'm really just making noises with my new FX pedal and seeing what happens. I've only had the guitar and pedal for a week, so I'm not really aiming for anything.
And that guitar pedal has 100 different effects. It's scary how easy it is to make a stylised sound. For the last 10 years I've been recording an acoustic guitar into a microphone and then trying to make it not sound shit using FX on a computer which I don't really understand. And now suddenly I have 100 preset sounds I can play live. It's weird.
I don't even know if I like this track. It's too clean, if that makes sense.

Both sides of the argument are just patronising the electorate with stupid emotive bollocks and there is no impartial media putting forward a balanced set of pros and cons and holding the government to account.
I'll be voting out, not because of some stupid flag waving patriotism, but because there is something fundamentally undemocratic about the EU. I don't buy the economic scare mongering... the EU favours big business who benefit from an endless pool of cheap labour which suppresses wages at the low end... just as there has been no trickle down of the economic recovery to low earners, there won't be a trickle down of the impact of Brexit. GDP will fall, sure, but it will hit the kind of people that earn millions and the corporations that are dodging tax anyway.

On some job sites, you can't go take a crap without filling out a form.
This is not the EU fault, you lot are either shit at making up your rules or at implementing EU rules.
ANd the worse part, is that most of this yellow jacket madness is to give an appearance of safety protect arses/assign blame rather than actual Safety.
Even Luxembourg is less overbearing and focused on actual safety (unprotected blades, wires etc) than high viz bullshit/paperwork.
The UK was a regulation/industrial nightmare before your Gvt downed the blue with yellow sparkles pill.

Not on proper job sites.
Safety inspections on the mainland are far more about going round the site looking for danger (that we could have missed) than getting behind a desk looking if the stamps are not overotated while having a cuppa with the office tart/hunk.
For example, security levels on UK offshore is shoddy (I would NEVER work there at ANY price) but require the most paper stamping of all the EU.
You lot are going to have another Piper Alpha and are going to blame the EU for it.

But one day we had an inspection of the labels on the High Viz jackets.

In France, the inspector will check the grinder and ask the operator to show him how it works. If it is dangerous/he does not, then the paperworks starts.
The big problem on the mainland is that we often have different agencies checking the same thing, on different days.
For example, the width of the passages is checked by safety commission, firefighters and the legless dude on a wheelchair.
And that is linked to different agencies not talking to each other.
Another problem is getting to the starting point, it takes forever, but once the job starts, better/safer/faster in France!

When I was project managing
I would make my staff wear glove, mask etc - but with a common sense approach - use stuff when needed. Another thing is having good PSE, nice grippy flexible glove are going to be worn much more than the 1£ for 5 pairs cotton and fake leather jobbies.
But PSE's are just the final line of protection, doing things safe should be "just the way stuff is done", not inane rule checking.
You put a guard rail up because you don't want one of your mates getting killed, going to his funeral and having awful pity sex with his ugly widow - not because of rules.
The work site being safe means cleaner and more organised, that means faster work, that means finishing bonuses.
safe = moneyyyyy.
In any case, I never had a single report against any of my job sites anywhere and only one injury (a carpenter decided to move freshly 45° cut alloy profiles with no gloves).

Methinks not that many really want to leave the EU, but most really hate what is has become
The EU, previously quite neutral, has become a weird faceless and shapeless authoritarian mess. And I don't need fucking Dellingpole to realize that.
Just look at how Greece got butchered.
WTF is the EU doing supporting nazis in the Ukraine?
Etc.
While I don't think leaving the EU is the answer, I really can't see how the EU could be changed from within.
Shit choices.

Good point
The implication of Leave is that we'd have far fewer 'red tape' and bureaucracy, but in reality most if not all of the laws which the EU requires would be implemented by any national government anyway, as they are about food safety, work safety, and above all about the ability to have common specifications in order to allow easier trade within the Euro-zone. If Leave want to negotiate a trade partnership with the EU then they will end up having to accept all the rules on specifications of goods and services, but without having a voice in deciding them. Which seems a bit daft to me.

not at all biased and selective and using outright mistruths, that video
they should retitle it "Tearing up a comprehensive trade and tax harmonisation treaty with our biggest export partner is not at all complete economic idiocy. trust us, we have Farage and Katie Hopkins and Rupert Murdoch and George Galloway and Boris Johnson on our side, and all the other side have is every economist and academic of note shouting at us "Don't do it you fucking morons" by which they mean to scare us with their well-reasoned analysis, and we won't listen to fear."

I haven't watched the video
But I've made up my mind. We don't export that much, and look at who owns the companies who do export from the UK, like Rolls Royce. As for imports, nearly everything in my house was made in China. The jeans I am wearing are an American brand made in Taiwan. I don't think the rest of the world, including Europe, will stop buying from us or selling to us if we leave.
If I want to offer 20k cash for a new Citroen, they aren't going to refuse my order and tell me to wait ten years for a trade agreement to be in place.

The idea was good and had the right intentions
But like all self interests the EU has turned into a Institutionalised, Kafkaesque Bureaucratic bloated nightmare of muppets who are so out of touch it takes years to get anything of any merit done. Odd that. It was supposed to be originally the core EU states but it's tentacles got everywhere causing more confusion and battles of self interest. Now we promise Turkey membership if they keep migrants from our shores. Oh letting Greece in was a good idea which then got it's hands on cheap loans protected by the EU and trousered most of it making it into a near failed state bailed out by the errrr EU.

Er, yes please.
Been to the Dolomites twice to do Via Ferratas, and it is just brilliant. Scenery is spectacular, food superb, the Italians are lovely, and the Via Ferratas are actually very safe because of the clipping. Having said that, the blokes in the vid have a crap, potentially dangerous clipping technique - only one end should be clipped with most mechanisms as this lets the rope slide through a brake. That it important because otherwise there is a large shock load put on the safety gear and it could break.
When my children are a couple of years older I'm taking them all to the Dolomites.

Not dangerous at all. If you've got something like this, which they have, you clip both ends. If you fall, the shock is taken up by the sewn strap (in the thing that looks like a block) unravelling. This is safer than a "one end" attach for two reasons. Firstly, it gets you into the habit of always having at least one clip attached, and secondly, there's no loose rope to tangle round you and trip you (or, worse, wrap itself around your arm / leg / neck as you fall).
