There's good news and bad news, the bad news is there's not going to be a podcast recording next week.
The good news is there was so much stuff recorded this week that we're going to split it over two weeks!
So, we kick off episode 8 with some chat from new daddy Addy. That turns into music chat and Adam drops the pun "take your pick". Adam's decided to chill out from being in bands for a while, apparently rocking out for 1 guy and an awkward silence isn't really worth it.
First song of the night, sort of, Whole Lotta Love - Led Zeppelin.
Lynn makes a cameo appearance and delivers us two cups each while chatting about the choir, which gets Adam a little bit over excited.
Susan's old @rse gets a seat then she gives podcast land directions to her new flat on posh sounding Bertram Street. But then she gets interrupted when Jimmy phones and gives him the house selling blues.
The chat turns to gigs and Hells Belles, Kings of Leon, Snow Patrol and Eminem all get a mention.
Susan takes exception to John's face and then she forgets how to play the bass leading to John making a bold claim.
Susan gets a new catchphrase to underpin the fact this is The F**king Susan Show.
Adam's catchphrase gets a mention.
We try and go back to Whole Lotta Love.
Mrs Drummers-mum gets a mention as we think about getting a drummer, but the drummer has to be 16 or 56 to stick with the pattern.
Susan gets in some baby chat with Adam and tells us about the time she was actually starving, which might have been insulting to the Biafrans.
Adam gets invited to Susan's flat warming party, John does not.
Where can the BGT shadow theatre people go next? There's only one logical place really.
We try once more to go back to Whole Lotta Love.
Every Rose Has It's Thorn gets trotted out as a warm up exercise. Then some Barry White Style easy listening gets us in the mood. But it doesn't work so we rock it up a bit.
We actually start playing music now, bit of Fans by Kings of Leon.
The playing makes Adam happy but gives Susan callouses, then she creates a sound which is not a good sound as she's feeling a bit like the village idiot with the bass. She had earlier that day suffered a 3pm panic so flat chat rolls around again and we discuss Shawlands nights out.
Remember when Susan knew all the notes? Well not any more, however it's not long before the penny drops. We feel a bit intimidated by Adams musical knowledge, not his stature, as he can't help but be the teacher.
A bit of phone chat leads to discussions about cracks and Susan makes a face as there are innuendos galore.
We play a little bit more Fans.
Susan complains because she wanted to use her thumb but was told not to.
Adam tries adding a bit of bass drum but it sounds like keich, or, as Adam puts it, "a tadger backwards". This leads Susan and John to invent a new DJ - MC super group "Bangin' n Shytee".
Susan lets us know that she "do have got rhythm" and John suffers a feedback fail.
We play a bit more Fan.
Do we want to do Bob Dylan?
Episode 9 (Episode 8 part 2) coming next week.

Guitarmageddon Best Of Episode
There was no podcast recording this week as a certain Mr Adam Millar became a father!
Understandably he was a little too pre-occupied with other matters, we offer him massive congratulations, well done Adam (and Mrs Adam).
Instead of having no podcast this week we decided to do a little best of. It's not very long but hopefully it has plenty of giggles.
Enjoy.

Guitarmageddon BONUS EPISODE! Guitarmageddon On The Road!
This week (and maybe only this week or maybe not, who knows?) there is a bonus episode!
This bonus episode is a behind the scenes look at what happens away from the studio on the car journey home. Or at least the part of the car journey up until the point John is dropped off. Who knows what happens when Susan and Adam are alone in the car together?
Neil Young and Pink Floyd is my guess.
Enjoy, and as always, any feedback would be most welcome.

Guitarmageddon Episode 7 - See You Next Tuesday
Lots of goings on in Episode 7, including the announcement of a bonus podcast this week and Neil Young raises his ugly head as per usual. Also, we'd quite like a singer on the team.
Susan starts off the podcast by asking D? D? D? D? Then we find out she's well hung but also electrocuted. Something is dodgy as feck and she has a bit of trouble finding her hole. She's sitting on the amp this week as it's higher than the seat and she has a sore back, at least that's her excuse for sitting like a "dafty dug". When it comes to plugging in to the amp is Adam brave enough? She informs her son that "they" all have teeth and then says something outrageous. OH MY GOD! She takes a trip to the bass department and informs us that the bargain hunter's underhanded tricks failed to work. Once she's plugged in she find the G(spot) with a good finger action and the right pitch. She wonders if we're allowed profanity on the podcast and then says See You Next Tuesday! She loves the bass as the no strumming makes it so easy. Displaying her similarity to Brick Tamland, she announces I love Train. Offering face value plus an extra tenner doesn't work. She asks the odd question, are there any Welsh people on the podcast? KEN! She boldly announces that we can play anything by Oasis and tells John buckin' bronco? Buckin' halfwit! She tells John not to bite her and she has 88 emails however she does not have naked friends. She decides that she's going to kill the wee f**kers next door! She needs a bass to take home and she makes a proper scary bass player face. She tells John to bring his face closer so she can smack it then asks Alice? Who the f**k is Alice? Remember, it's one thinger, one thong. Adam helps her to learn the bass notes, A, A#, B, C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G, G#, H...wait...H!? She helps Adam out by inventing a cure for his cold. She's supposed to correct 'im, wrecked 'im? It nearly killed 'im! She develops a bad case of droppsy and drops her phone. Her foot tapping gets a bit out of control and makes an interesting spectacle. She claims that she would be a session guitarist if it wasn't for John putting her off. It might have got her closer to Dave Grohl whose face she'd like to suck off. Adam teaches her the best way to finger her bass which leads to a mention of delicate gusset typing. The lesson's dragging on as she gets her yawn on. Her heartbeat becomes slightly irregular, almost bluesy. Say goodbye Susan.
John let's Susan know that there's no liquids allowed on the amp as she sits on it. He then points out that the bass has a broken hole. He advises Adam that if he's having trouble getting it in he needs to get his bass on the edge of a cliff. He gets left alone for a second so he whistles. He asks Susan if she can get her leg up then tells her to stop acting like a dick and answer him. He asks her if it's too high and if she wants this one, but she says it's too hard, making her feel like Goldilocks. He accuses her of being a loser for having not seen Spinal Tap. He answers Adam's question of how many songs can we play, with the answer, all of them. But he does admit that Bruno Mars knows music. He warns Susan that Sterephonics fans are all neds and plays some accidental Oasis though his pinky doesn't know where it's going. He giggles like a girl when Susan prods his fat bits. Though she has banned his ukulele as she hates it. He oddly declares that children love bushes. He insists that Adam plays The Boxer, go Adam, play it! Go! Adam! PLAY IT! GO! GO! GO! He notices that the noisy boys next door are totally Slipknotting it up, requests some guitar hitting songs and picks on Susan. Oddly enough he then gets a bass to the face but Jenn makes him laugh. He sits out of learning Ever Long and discovers that he is the windiest.
Adam predicts an extended bass solo. After mastering the first song he wonders what else we can play. He announces we're not to worry as it's going back in. He points out that Jake Bugg is a wee acoustic guy before being upset by him. He thinks that I'm a bitch is a bit ironic and how you strum makes all the difference. He then ponders if we could do a gig or an open mic night. The nutter. He then sings, well sort of. He tells Susan that she has to press it harder, but he's talking about The Punisher. He informs she can get a bass for buttons, however buttons aren't cheap. We discover that he belongs to A minor, or was that, he belongs to a miner? He gets the sad news that he is not Phil Lynott and claims that a noise on one song was the highlight of Art Garfunkel's career. He claims the last song he listened to was World on a String, WTF is that? He scans Susan's iPod in landscape mode like some kind of troglodyte before being blinded by snotters. He gets the title The Guitar Man before claiming he can feel the change happening. He points out that Everybody
Always Does Guitar before John claims that Elvis Aaron Died God Bless Elvis. He then spots Space Raider Jams through the door before finally saying RIGHT GUYS! He has just enough oxygen to breathe and he's going to sneeze! False alarm. He's a wee jobby.
