Playing the Astoria on only my second ever professional gig. Playing to 10,000+ people at the Ariake Colisseum in Tokyo (with members of Def Leppard in the audience) then the next day getting on the bullet train and finding that I'm sitting behind Stuart Hamm, Joe Satriani & Jonathan Mover Playing to 20,000 people in Dynamo Bucharest football stadium with my 'originals' band just before Saxon & Jethro Tull. Going onstage at Vienna Stadthalle (in full 'Gene Simmons' garb) with my friends in the opening local band (on a 3 band bill with Motorhead & Dio) and having the whole arena believe I really was Gene....lol!.... then going backstage and being *ahem* 'noshed off' by a beautiful lady in my dressing room

Bumping for our appearance on the Live Stage at 'Music Live' at the NEC this coming Sunday 8th November. We'll be onstage at 2.40 for 45 mins

Just ask yourself "What is hip?!?" I think you'll find that the answer is 'Tower Of Power'!

No question... the wife goes! My wife doesn't TELL me what to do and would never make such an ultimatum. I don't answer to her.... nor she to me. We both try to do what's right for ourselves and each other without creating resentment in either. She knows how important my music is to me and therefore it would be the most selfish thing she could do to make me choose. Although, to be fair, it helps being married to a fellow musician

Cheers Andy! It was a pleasure

Love him or loathe him he's got it sorted. Design something, copyright it and have it made by a high quality manufacturer to a high standard. Add some desirable extras (custom case.... meeting him.... photo.... signed/numbered... etc) and then sell it to your target market at an inflated price, keeping most of the profits. I have one of these from about 10 years ago when they were being made for him by Fernandes. Great bass.....

Love the Streamer Stage II! Very nice

My lovely Buzz4 lined fretless...
