Have a look at Whitelands. They supported Slowdive on the recent reunion tour and are headlining Gazefest sometime this year.

I've been lucky enough to play at Yolanda's jam night at the Spice of Life. Her current band were the house band for the jam, so that's how scary it was. Also hugely recommended is the No Treble podcast/interview she did, https://www.notreble.com/buzz/2020/03/05/groove-episode-63-yolanda-charles/

Was there a Joshua Tree?

I am also here! Being unhip up squeezed against the beer fridge and coffee machine.

Ah yes now the Bass Day EU website says CLS Conference Centre as mentioned above. CLS = City of London School btw, https://www.cityoflondonschool.org.uk/ and some of the event spaces look pretty cool https://www.cityoflondonschool.org.uk/venue-hire/

Magazine by the O2 has been mentioned before https://magazinelondon.co.uk/whats-on/

Steve Lawson has mentioned on his facebook that he's doing a (literal) coffee shop gig in Peckham in February: "London! I've got a really fun lil gig coming up in Peckham. Fri Feb 21st, with beautiful human and fabulous bassist @bassdbler. It's at @ronspeckham, starts at 7pm and tickets are PWYW on the door, but lemme know if you're coming as the place is tiny and we might have to rethink the no tickets thing if a ton of people want to be there 😂. Please spread the word. It's my first London gig since before the pandemic and it's a warm-up for another gig TBA soon. Plus you'll get to see JD and he's fabulous 💜" https://fb.watch/xu0GasRXr6/ https://ronspeckham.com/

Yolanda Charles has "Instramentals just might be doing something at the bass show this year" on her Facebook feed. (not seen much else, admittedly) https://www.facebook.com/share/p/15AVNbrs1R/

Turns out Dave is unavailable: https://www.loudersound.com/news/david-bowies-berlin-trilogy-musicians-reunite-for-european-tour Bonus points for Kevin Armstrong from the Live Aid line-up.

Perfect! Gator Icon does the job. Just need to repack it so Santa can redeliver in a couple of weeks. Thanks for the assist!

Thanks - do you mean this one? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mono-Cases-Electric-Guitar-Case/dp/B002FKLNKO?th=1 Looks a little small for my JMJ, which is 42.5" end to end.

I think this should be the ultimate for JMJs - the Gator Icon in blue: Best price I've found is £186. Massive Tone love for anyone who can find somewhere to beat that price. Who doesn't love a Black Friday price challenge! (btw Bax doesn't count, unless you can convince me that they're actually legit and worth dealing with)

Hi all, I'm shopping around for a new gig bag for my JMJ after the Fender bag it shipped with started disintegrating. Requirements are: Fits a JMJ preferably with neck support (like the moveable support in the Gator Icon shots above) protection on the tailpiece strap button end pocket big and strong enough for a pedal £150ish or less available in the UK From this and other similar threads (and again others elsewhere including TalkBass) it seems like the Gator Icon (as per @ped above - is it this one? https://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/Gator-ICON-Series-Bag-For-Electric-Guitars-Black/5DL2), Gator ProGo (I think Gator G-PG-ELECTRIC ?) and Gator GB-4G-JMASTER. Are there any others that those here assembled would recommend? Couple more questions (sorry): @tayste_2000 what's the case your JMJ is in above? is it the GruvGear Guitar Kapsulite? might be a bit rich for me, but where did you get yours? also what is the one with red trim next to it in the final photo? Thanks!

I hear they harvest the sticky and export to other local venues, Dublin Castle is an especially heavy consumer

Greg Howe at the Underworld tonight, world's stickest-floored venue. Mohini Dey on bass.

Have to agree to be honest. It's got a bit of a Bass Review Magazine feel to it so far.

I'd be happy to pay £20ish for Yolanda, Moto and Janek alone. Plus it's pretty much on my SE London doorstep so all being well I'll be there.

SIgn-up for presale here: https://signup.koko.co.uk/marcus-miller-presale Great that's he playing a relatively small venue. Shame it's one with such poor sightlines as Koko

Just seen this on facebook, London 1/6/25. https://www.bassday.eu/ and https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61567163921386 Looks like the venue is Magazine London, next door to the O2 Arena, I've seen the address Ordnance Cres, London SE10 0JH somewhere on the above links. https://magazinelondon.co.uk/ A few names have been announced, but not much more at the moment. Anyone know anything more?

Greetings from another SE representative! Didn't know we had quite the cluster of BCers in the area. Welcome @TheMoose!
