  1. [quote name='elgeecules' timestamp='1356178992' post='1907650'] Vox amplug?? Can this be used along with vox amplug too?? I'm actually a guitarist And if this pedal is compatible with vox amplug, i'm surely gonna get one!! [/quote] There is no point in using the Stomplab along with a Amplug. The Stomplab runs on batteries, and you just connect your guitar and headphones and you're ready to go! It's like an Amplug with effects.
  2. I'm such a dumb ass... I'm sorry, but I wasn't reading this post since a long time ago, and I thought that the meeting was on the 17-18 weekend. I already bought my flight for the 8-11 weekend, to see the wife back at home... I really wanted to go, because I'm leaving the UK at the end of this month... It was a chance to trade sounds, experiences and stories with you all. I really hope all the work done by John may be rewarding for everyone who attends. Thank you, John, for all your efforts, and once more, I'm sorry... Maybe another opportunity will rise!
  3. Any news, guys? The date's still on?
  4. The "guy from Somerset" is finally home. The almost 400mil driving where nothing, compared to the evening we got there! Terrific playing! That guy has a metronome in is brain!!! That part where he was adding notes on the loop was UNBELIVABLE!! What sense of beat and rhythm. For me, that's his most amazing characteristic. And the Q&A: very nice detail! And got surprised when at the end he said: “you can play what you want with my bass. No problem. Just leave there when you guys finished!” And most important: THANK YOU ALL YOU GUYS AT DV!! AMAZING NIGHT!!!!
  5. I don't know the store, but 200 people is a lot! Let's see...
  6. I've flew to Russia, Azores and Brazil with several instruments, within orchestras and a Big Band. When arriving to Russia, we saw the guys taking the cases off the airplane. We even made a film that served as evidence for insurance. Probably 60% of the instruments where damaged (or their boxes). Luckily I wasn't carrying my bass, I was with the clarinet. But I saw tubas, an accordian, saxofones, etc, all in proper flight cases and with TONS of fragile stickers and the guys where throwing them away off the airplane into the land transporters (no treadmills)!! From that point on, I always carry my bass in a gigbag, with me into the cabin. I never had to buy an extra seat or had to pay extra money. I just put it in my back and never asked anything to anyone. Last month they made me put it in the scale to see its weight, but that was it. I never flew low costs with it. I always try to get a proper airliner when travelling with my precious… To Brazil we bought some space in a container. At the end it was a whole container for the big band. You know those containers, with the side inclined to fit the airplane cargo area?... A guy just brought the container to us in a forklift thing, in the check-in area in Lisbon airport. We loaded it ourselves. And when we arrived they brought the containers to us to unload. Everything was untouched! That was the only time I flew with my bass in the cargo bay. I have no idea how much the container costed… But I’m going to check that extra seat option, in case I need it. Seems a good thing to do!
  7. Hi! You will probably go. It's just a question of having my flights re-scheduled so it won't match that weekend. I'm in Yeovil! Hope see you guys there!!
  8. I just bought my ticket! I'm doing total almost 400miles to be there... But I would do even more to see Vic. There's no chance I'll be seeing him when I'm back to Portugal!! I just don't get how you guys got tickets in begining of March and there is still tickets available!! I would expect something like this to sold out in a couple of days! Cheers!!
  9. Sorry guys, there is another topic on this... I did make a search, but nothing appeared... or I couldn't see it... [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=80102&hl=wooten"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...2&hl=wooten[/url]
