When funds allow I'm totally swapping my compact for a big baby.

Lounge Fly have added a couple of new local cheltenham shows (save our petrol!). We are chuffed to be playing The Night Owl on Fri 10th Sept with The Virginmarys, who recently opened for ...get this....Slash (!), and are off on tour with Skunk Anansie in November. So get yourself down to that one! We are also back at the 2 Pigs on Fri 15th October. Stick 'em in your diary.

I'll fill you all in once it's safely back at thomann. Except to say it's still brilliant and I will buy one again. Although next time I'd go for two p110c's and the head.

Sweet and it's still got my little logo on too

Yep! No and yes. And sadly mine has had to go back (long story) gutted. But if any other promethean owners fancy buying the male to female jack I had made by obbm for it gimmie a shout! Let's you put the head on top on the combo cabinet. Much better than slotting in the back. Esp when it's on top of the ext cab. (which is awesome btw!)

Heh heh. Yeah slight digression there, it's my age

Oooh and a very young Dave Navarro with blue dreads in Janes Addiction doing been caught stealing on a v tasty sparkly yellow tele shaped thing. Prob a G+L. Bass is rather naff on that one though.

I won't play anywhere without a compressor.

It's a great show with some ace performances and great for bass spotting. Lots of trace, some nice tbirds (belly) that loud p bass (sugar) there's sonic youth with a huge mockingbird and a tasty lead solo on a jazz bass from dinosaur jnr, and Darcy with the pumpkins looks amazing!!

Tim Commerford did have a stingray with a replacement bridge, back in the early days of ratm, I think it was a badass 1 The bass was a natural one with stickers and no pickguard, it looked a bit iffy tbh. He used it on the late show 'no nirvana' special, there first uk tv appearance. I still have it on VHS!

I'm poor so i use fretfx. Ever since a lighting lady plunged us into a blackout as inflow up the neck for my solo and ended up like a tone flat!

I think pearl_jammin had em in his Geddy and when I heard him play with em it sounded fantastic.

I've got an art one I'd sell

I find it depends what cab I'm using but overall most popular spot seems to be about 8-9 o clck for me

[quote name='Dubs' post='756871' date='Feb 25 2010, 12:03 PM']I love gear stalking It's the first thing I do when I get into a venue - look at what's on the stage! I very rarely actually seek out people to talk about their gear though... I've reached the point in my band where I've stopped talking about gear because it became a running joke where I'd turn up to practice with a new head almost every other week. They think I'm the ultimate gear slut, but I know I'm not as bad as some on here [/quote] Exactly this!

Best wishes mate. Tbh I've started to feel that myself lately with the whole snotty child vs pointless gigs thing. Hope it works out for you mate :-)

The promethean cab is fantastic and very light

Is it wrong to get a bit excited over a strap? I'd love one but I adjust the strap on the fly from song to song so I have the 'buckle' at the front so I can slide, slide down. Which depressingly precludes me from anything other than the cheap black webbing straps I've used for so long. I have a comfort strapp kicking around tho.

No pics no strap ;-)

Isn't there the one that knocked both him and Guy out in the same way?

Hah hah ace.

Really I think the Gaf signature jazz is way overdue and I reckon they'd shift a few!! Sonic blue with maple neck, stripes, aged hardware a gaffer pickup and of course relic'd! (although mines all real wear n tear but y'know!) Like that <-- ;-) heh heh
