Kebabkid

Very sad news and along with Cetera (Gary), we were lucky to catch a scaled down Cloudbusting gig at The Half Moon, Putney where he got up and played but also regaled us of KB stories and he chatted to us. Such an integral part of KB's sound and success and much more on the personal side of things plus a great player. R.I.P

Thanks to everyone for a great day and particularly those who assisted and organised it all. Good gear and people and fabulous guests and a bloody enjoyable day. Cheers, Cos

If able to come and I do hope so, a Sire S7 or S3 (4 stringers), Roland Cube 120XL and possibly a Zoom bass unit or HX Stomp. If my mate Si comes, he'll bring his Wal wedge. As always, cheers to everyone involved in organisation of this, Cos

Nice to see Ian King @Kingbassist on tele tonight for the National Lottery Big Bash playing in the houseband and doing a fine job. Nice one and Happy New Year everyone

A bit of a necrobump post but D!ck will be playing bass tomorrow in a friend's Americana band called The Cripple Creek Band at The Cavern, Raynes Park at 3pm (Sunday 20th November) Edit: Post won't allow me to put the shortened version of Richard D!ck

It was a Grand Day out and I hope you good folks who attended got home safely as the rains and stormy weather came down just as we left. Thanks to all involved in organising the day @Hamster@cetera Mrs.Hamster etc and I loved Ian King's chat. What a great, solid and versatile player and it was great to get an insight into pit playing. Thanks to all who allowed me to get my Greek mits on your wonderful gear. It was certainly something to hear @Merton new Trace Eliott head and the basses in that corner ? ACGs and thanks to @Simon Cfor letting me try the Laney 85 Octaver - it's a cracker, as well @prowla EBS Octabass (original) and sorry I didn't see you Paul to say goodbye. Right. Off to look at Ebay and Reverb to look for an EBS Octabass..anyone? All the best Cos

Cheers Simon

Hi All, I'm looking forward to tomorrow and seeing and hearing you good folk. One thing I'm particularly interested in, and it's eluded me so far, is a good octaver. I've had the Boss OC-2, 3 & 5, the Aguilar and tried the famed Pearl, the TC Sub and MXR but they're not doing it for me. Think Tony Levin on 'Sledgehammer' or Guy Pratt on some Floyd stuff or Pino, which are probably all OC-2s but I need better tracking and lower range. Anyone bringing anything along tomorrow that fits the bill, let me know and I'll seek you out as well as anyone with a decent budget fretless. See you anon and safe journey. Cos

Nice one and thanks to the organisers/faciliators
