Scotland is lovely and soon we hit the wonderful Hartlepool. : ) Does anyone on Basschat go to gigs - especially free ones? : )

Hey - Have been in Bermondsey with my band Rosalita for a few days recording at the Animal Farm. Using an old Bassman 100 with an EV equiped 15 cab. Usual Neuman mic and damn... it's sounding great. Will post results as soon as we're finished mixing. For now, have a gander at www.myspace.com/rosalitaband to check out our previous recordings. For these I used an Ashdown ABM 500 and Precision Devices equiped 2x12. Instrument wise - Fender Precision or Jazz. Effects - non other than a Flanger on If You Can't Dance (mid section).

Leaving for Manchester tomorrow, then off to Glasgow for the first date of the April tour. Any fellow BCers who are up for coming down and checking us out, holla for ze guestlist.

Hey all, I had the priviledge of recording at BBC Maida Vale Studios, in conjunction with BBC Introducing, this past Sunday with my band Rosalita. After a homecoming Ipswich show at the Caribbean Club on Friday, Nottingham Junktion 7 and a Travelodge in Hemel Hempstead on Saturday, albeit it a little tired, we loved the experience! They had a very tasty Ampeg SVT-R and I must say, I was blown away. You can see pics of us and that beautiful Ampeg here - [url="http://www.bbc.co.uk/suffolk/content/image_galleries/rosalita_maida_vale_gallery.shtml?14"]http://www.bbc.co.uk/suffolk/content/image...allery.shtml?14[/url] Audio will be played on The Huw Stephens, Introducing show on Radio 1 this evening from midnight, or alternatively on the "listen again" feature on the BBC website later this week. all ze besten Jay

Hello. Currently require a Fender Bassman 70w, ultralinear Output transformer for my Bassman. The amp was built in 1980 and it would be great to get the old thing running again. Does anyone have an info on where I can get one of these transformers? Jay

Great pic Tony! However, I am sure he was using TWO Ampeg rack heads through an 8x10 when we played with them in Norwich. (may be one was a spare). To be honest, it lacked that classic "bite" he had back in the day. I wouldn't be surprised if he has changed to Marshall. Jay

[quote name='bilbo230763' post='99651' date='Dec 5 2007, 03:23 PM']Yep - Michel and George are still on board - you can find us on MySpace including 3 tracks of our cd. You playing up there?[/quote] Yes indeed - we're off to Sheffield on Friday and the across to the Hartlepool for Saturday, which is always a good laugh and most importantly, good crowds are plentiful. Do pass on my hello's to the others... now off to check ye Myspace

Ah - yes indeed, we were lucky enough to win, my friend : ) How's stuff going your end?

Excellent! I used to play Bass for these guys around 3 years ago or so - Is Michel on Vox and George still on the skins? I would defo be down for the show, but am in Sheffield that night! Darn it!

Hey fellow people of Bass. My band Rosalita have just released our debut single, Manga Girl. It can be downloaded on iTunes and hard copies including vinyls are available from Amazon, HMV etc... Most importantly, I'm more keen for people to have a gander and let us know what they think. Therefore, you can listen for [b]free[/b] at our myspace www.myspace.com/rosalitaband. Of course, any purchases are a bonus Cheers, Jay PS - I used to chat on Bassworld, which as I understand is long gone now Still, this site looks pretty cool anyways.

Hey there. Spotted a few comments about the Jam and thought I would shout out a reply. Oddly enough, my band, Rosalita supported them earlier in the year when they played The Waterfront in Norwich. I thought the show they put on was great, although it did come at a fair price for those paying, I thought. I believe it was £16 a ticket and on their most recent dates I think it's even more. Still, not that expensive compared to some recent gigs. Just to get a plug in here... Rosalita released our debut single., Manga Girl on Monday which can be downloaded from iTunes. If you wanna have a listen first, please all feel free to have a look at; www.myspace.com/rosalitaband Jay
