Total Watts

  1. We Whamageddoned our audience on Saturday, it went down well with everyone having a good old singalong.
  2. Emerson, Lake & Palmer, I used to have all their albums when I was in my teens, haven't wanted to listen to them for at least the last 30 years.
  3. Donny Hathaway - I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know
  4. Rick Beato interviewed him a couple years back, well worth watching.
  5. We have, but for reasons I won't bore you with, we've decided to put things on hold for a few months. I may well be doing some deps myself.
  6. Almost perfect yesterday, we had a late afternoon slot at a small festival in Harpenden. Great weather, we played well, the crowd liked us, saw some good bands before and after our set and saw the mighty Hatters win the Championship playoff on the pub TV! And I got paid too! the only downside is our singer is pregnant so this will be our last gig for a while.
  7. Possibly the guitarist looking for a pop punk band has just left a pop punk band who are now looking for a guitarist. But most probably not.
  8. Neil Francis - Can't Stop The Rain
  9. I used to play several Blues Brothers tunes when I was in a soul band, fantastic fun. The Blues Brothers film was my gateway into soul and R&B back in the 80s, watched it for the first time in a long time over Christmas and it still delivers.
  10. I thought they played both kinds of music, country AND western
  11. Thankyou for your kind thoughts. I normally spend Christmas at my relatives so the plan is if I feel well enough I'll test myself on Christmas morning and if it is negative it will be Christmas as usual. If not, It'll be just me at home. Merry Christmas to you and your family too.
  12. Our drummer was looking forward to us gigging at his local on Saturday, then three days before, our singer was diagnosed with pneumonia and had to pull out. We got in a dep singer who saved the day for us and we had a reasonable gig but not the massive triumph our drummer was hoping for. Then it turns out that three out of the five of us ( including me ) have caught covid at the gig.
  13. We did it as a encore at our gig on Saturday and it was very well received. When I was learning it I was surprised at how much fun the bassline is to play.
