  1. I paid £100 to see Roger Daltrey with a woefully under rehearsed band recently. Wife thought it was great!
  2. Ya mean Take That featuring Jeff Lynne?😂 Blasted out a hits compo the other day when the wife was out - guilty pleasure for sure, Łozz! 👍
  3. I was thinking the two of you could be long lost brothers…😁
  4. No, Keith, we’re playing a B-side… beside the C-side😁
  5. Nice! I sing Dead Flowers with my blues band - not really blues but more people know it than you think…
  6. Had a parallel experience, David, when I played a Bandstand in Bournemouth Lower Gardens a couple of weeks ago. DI to the hired-in PA was denied as the Council had sent in the noise abatement team a few days earlier after complaints from nearby offices! Funny thing is the Council was funding the music… Happily I had brought both my Barefaced one10s which, with a Peavey Minimax, delivered from our perch on high with no major problems.Mini stack to left of photo as you see it.
  7. For sale, used but not abused wireless system. Simple to use, if a bit fiddly to charge. (USB lead provided). Four different channel choices. Disclaimer: It has never retained charge for the four hours the leaflet claims, but is okay for more like half that. (Light blinks to warn you its running out). So would be ideal for someone trying out wireless rather than a Grateful Dead tribute… Easy to move on if you upgrade. £30 posted
  8. Nah, be adventurous and try the other alternative! Buffet was crap anyway…
  9. I run a blues jam, so we tend to get variations on 12 bars. At least the ‘blues’ label discourages open-mic people - that’s a totally different kettle of fish. As Jack says, the vocalists call the shots, so pal up with one or try yourself. It’s non competitive and friendly, at least ours is, and we welcome new faces. Good luck…
  10. Thanks. I think he is probably the biggest single musical hero of mine…those 70s albums were absolute perfection (apart from ‘…Plants’).
  11. Trouble with these mags i find is they don’t want to offend advertisers. Hence gear reviews are meaningless. I did an amp review for Guitar and Bass (now also online only) and had my star rating for Blackstar combos ‘enhanced’. At £100 a review I decided it wasn’t worth the hassle.
  12. Hugh depped for me when family commitments meant I couldn’t do a couple of gigs in Whitby. Sadly the band now like him more than me! Seriously, thanks for a good job well done sir.
  13. I think this could well turn out to be an annals horribilis!😁
  14. I slammed my index in a car door pre-gig four years ago. I somehow played the set without it, using a tumbler of ice between songs. It’s amazing what the brain can do. And the feeling has never returned fully…
  15. Try the Notable Deaths 2022 thread…
  16. I have one but run it flat. Please tell, simply, which buttons are worth bothering with!🙏
