Is anyone affected by the riots?? Things are looking pretty crazy over there. Hope everyone is alright. Did Rob and Dawn make it back from vacation ok?? Hopefully the factory is still standing. Everyone be careful! (I had to live through the Rodney King riots almost 20 years ago).

Had rioters come down my street and smash up a few shops, they didn't touch my house though. They'd have been hit round the head with a Marcus Miller Fender Jazz if they had!

Or another similar piece of wood that was lying on the ground half burnt!

:D

Sorry Rich, I'll get my coat!

It's all quiet here in posh Kensington BUT this is where the rioting SHOULD be happening because this is where all the greedy bankers live who have ruined the world. You seriously wouldn't believe the number of £10 - 30 million houses that have scaffolding around them because these f***ers have made so much money before and during the crash!

Beggars belief.

Some of my co-workers live in the effected areas of London, they all ok but a bit shaken. Just walked up Hatton Garden where all the jewelry shops are and it all shut and the window displays have been cleared down.

I always said everybody needs a Fender in their collection! B)

I'm not sure how far we are from riots here in US too, seeing how corrupt and careless both political parties are.

Better change subject, I'm about to buy another Status so I will be most likely selling my SII since they'll be very similar ()

I'm following the news, here in The Netherlands. It's very sad to see what happens back there in the UK.
You're our neighbours and I hope things will cool down, shortly.

It is spreading, I'm on a training course in the midlands and Birmingham got it last night, Wolverhampton tonight. Any bass shops this way? If so I might wait outside one, see if any fall out the window display! Basses I mean not hoodies!
It's really shite though, honestly Moo has a point, don't get me started.

Interesting point Rich. Here is another take, not directly related to the riots but nevertheless might be seen as relevant.

I didn't want to worry anyone but I got quite badly injured in the riots!

Yeah, that window at Dixons was hardly big enough to carry a 50" plasma through and cut me to pieces!!
