  1. This guy is selling some photos of a Pbass he had in the sixties. seems he's missing it. he was in a band with Noel Redding and has the pics to prove it.

  2. [quote name='Bass_In_Yer_Face' post='327755' date='Nov 12 2008, 05:03 PM']Any Ideas where you can buy T-shirts with bass players on?....I used to have a Johnny Marr t-shirt that I loved but I can't find any with bass players on. It's hard to find bass related clothing full stop![/quote] I'm about to order the clash one in your Avatar. thats about the only one i've seen that i would wear.
  3. Too Rolling Stoned by Robin Trower is a good number to do. it features the guy in my Avatar.
  4. [quote name='bluesparky' post='325430' date='Nov 9 2008, 06:18 PM']Last night's gig was cool. I wasn't playing though, just working! Last night of Queen's Euro tour, i'm not involved with the S. America bit. 35 (ish) shows and not once did I get bored of Bo Rhap! When i get some time I'll put some more pics up on the other thread i did with some shots of early on in the tour. Now i'm back home i'm gonna have a week or two off, not leave the house and finally get around to some serious playing and practicing. Hopefully some of my mates are free so we can get some studio time and have a proper play. I'm looking forward to taking onboard the info and help you guys have given me via a couple of other threads i've put up. Cheers.[/quote] I just cant imagine Queen doing that song without Freddy Mercury. cant work in my head anyway.
  5. Thats right oldgit, we have a loud drummer. he does not like holding back. ok sometimes he has to. but we play. say, a Keane song in the first set which a reasonable volume and in the second set we play a Billy idol song which has to have bit of oomph. but apparently not in these places.
  6. We played a gig last night at a local pub where they have a problem with neigbours complaing about the noise. this is the second time we have played there since this issue arose so we where aware of it. we start of the set with a reasonable volume with some numbers that suited to that and the are not many punters in, but as the night wears on we tend to turn it up when the number geta little rockier and the place fills up a bit more. last night was a bit more embarressing as we where told twice to turn it down. which we did, the result being the drummer turning my amp down( i cant reach it due the drums being in the way) and me turning down the volume on my bass and startin a town called malice sound terrible. does anyone else's volume go up and down or do you stick to a set volume. obviously i'm talking small pubs or clubs with no sound guy available,
  7. I did'nt know Leonardo Da Vinci had blog? ain the net great.
