Chaos Daveo

Thank him for the advice and ask him when he is playing wembley.. Or Ignorance is bliss, so ignore him

Thanks

Cheers Kirky,we are not really pure blues either

Howdo you nice lot, After being in metal bands and rock bands over the years I'm now part of a nice solid blues/rock line up. Pretty much we are now at the point of being gig ready the real struggle is I don't know where to start on the gigs circuit with being unfamiliar with blues venues across the uk and never really being the gig getter before.We have done a handfull of gigs with metal bands and stuff but its really not what we need... I'm off out to all the local pubs today in my area to dish out our ep see if we get any joy.. However I need a little help us getting started out so if any of you could point me in the direction of some blues venues near you id be most grateful or if you need a band to open up for you that would be most cool.. Thanks for you time and I hope santa was nice this year

working till 5 pm that day...bugger

Have a go of both, go what fits you best.... Ta Da.

I always have a chat with the soundman about what im after THANK HIM and get on with it. If something bothers me after the first song i will ask if it can be altered ...no biggy.No one is perfect

I wont like the idea of this one bit tbh nice guy or not a band is a group not an individual.

I play for The Horny Goat Blues Band... I love it ..so there, with nobs on. https://www.facebook.com/HornyGoatBlues

I'd be intrested

Therapy? as well

Muse and Helmet, will think of more later...

Does you head nod or toe tap,if so its all good.

I had a shecter diamond series 4 string for years, great basses imo.

I love my P Bass but since the purchase of my Les Paul Gibson nothing else compares..

From the first post you discovered a talent for bass and seem happy about it, musician or not you had fun and enjoyed it. That's the thing id be focusing on right now... let others label you(this will happen regardless)

[quote name='Lord Sausage' timestamp='1360189243' post='1966576'] Will anyone actually check these out tho? Or will it just be a list of facebook pages?! [/quote] No idea I'm doing a bit of both, why not...

Thong in cheek ...that should be your band name

Thanks for all the replies,made some purchases and listening the hell out of some fine suggestions...

Blues and stuff.. https://www.facebook.com/HornyGoatBlues Cheers

Thanks for the help folks, doing a different style has opened up my eyes a bit to it all. Will get the books and stuff and use brain and ears and things...(its the brain that struggles) Mr Doddy I would love some lessons sometime, I will be in touch sir.

Hello all, I've not really posted up much since I joined so wanted a bit of help and advice, overall I have always played using tab and the like doing a metal rock style.I have now been doing a blues band with my best mate(which I'm finding a breath of fresh air) and been really stepping out of my comfort zone and getting walking bass lines down. I was wondering a decent blues warm up routine from the seasoned blues player's out there and what can help me earn my chops a bit. Also is it me or is it really hard to find blues forums and the like..have a good one and thanks in advance
