  1. I quite like that...its almost a shame I don't 'do' ebay
  2. Well I'm Cambridge...ish...where is it going from?
  3. Absolutely cracking cover, my band does it too, nice choice fleabag!!!
  4. How can I vote for 3? I only got 1 vote
  5. ???? Sorry..couldn't resist!
  6. Yup..me, that looks very nice indeed...I wonder if Andertons have a fretted on in that colour.
  7. Well hello there...what took you so long to find us??? Welcome aboard, post long and often
  8. Ok thanks, I'll send pics to my guitarist and see if he is interested, watch this space!
  9. The one with 2 ports in the front, like this? or the non ported one , like this Cheers
  10. What are the specs for the combo Mick? My guitarist has got a side project going as a bassist and needs a gigable combo. Cheers Oopsy
  11. Not specifically these lyrics, but a heck of a lot of YES lyrics set me to thinking deep thoughts back in the 70's, in total contradiction to the punk 'keep it real' ethic which I scorned at the time. OFC in hindsight I can see the merits for each camp, but at the time YES music was really pressing my buttons!!
  12. Nice Climax Blues band link here....Guy I work with married Pate Haycocks sister back in the 70's, still together now, and their son got into Blues guitar and was gifted a lovely Strat by Pete a few years back to encourage him to play, must be worth a fortune now! Last gig of the year for us, and given how cold it got ( started snowing on way home) the gig was hot and sweaty all night, the party people were def out in force and we had a blast!
  13. That's a good point, one time we thought we had a great name until we found some band that were REALLY big in the 90's had the same name. when we set up our website we had a load of enquiries from old fans thinking band had reformed...they were SO disappointed!!!
  14. Spherical Dixon.........you're welcome
  15. This is fooking gorgeous I shall look into it further!!
  16. Nice to see Moonmadness get a mention! Means I still have 3 Albums from my life, that even now get regular Airplay Tubular Bells...natch Fields of the Nephilim....The Nephilim, and... Curved Air, Air Cut, can't find whole album on Youtube, so here is a taster. Its the rockiest album they ever did, mainly because Darryl Way had bailed by this point, and its a Cracker, thanks to Eddie Jobson and Kirby Gregory's input, probably my favouritsist album...evah!!!
  17. Definitely organisation, think its a bass players lot to keep the band on an even keel, I always send out MP3's of new songs, just because 1 lead guitarist always goes to 'what Clapton does', on You Tube regardless of what arrangement we have agreed to *sigh* Set lists too, no one else seems to have any idea how to structure a set to get the punters happy...tnx to all on here for that..I learned a lot!! I must like herding cats too, cos it always seems to be me chasing for new songs updates, next rehearsal, next gig, etc. Plus the last minute txts tio make no one has forgotten anything... the list is endless!
  18. hahhaa I sense a thread de-rail!!
  19. Eric the half a bee?
  20. Well from the pic in my post, behind the stage is a small area where the drummer set his kit up, his personal bit of carpet has marks on it so he can position his stuff very quickly, we had 15 mins between performers to tear down and set up, and luckily for us, the guy on just before us was a solo performer, so we set up at same time as him, my Zoom B3 was DI'd into the desk and the guitarist was miked into desk too. It went very smoothly and we just about had enough time to squeeze an extra song in too!!
  21. beat me to it mush! ooh..oooh call it mush!!
  22. Beautiful job, and I LOVE that green finish, play it lots and wait for the comments from the crowd!!!
  23. Probably one of my fave yes songs, and I rarely get past the intro lol!
