  1. Blimey, a pub gig a 100 miles away, a 200 mile round trip, hope it paid well 💰💰💰 Pubs around our way usually pay between £200 to a max of £300 for bands.
  2. You state the singer always arrives late, not really acceptable, the band should be having a word with her. 😤
  3. Colin definitely did a stint with Whitesnake on a tour, not actually a member of the band as such, hired as a bass player for the tour as I understand. He was also involved in Mick Jaggers solo album. Pretty sure he is now the bassist for Ten Years After.
  4. A question was posed by the original poster, so why bother commenting on this specific post and it’s not your musical genre and you don’t care. 🤔 Blue Planets just started, so I’m outa here.
  5. https://www.wideopencountry.com/how-capricorn-records-served-as-southern-rocks-sounding-board/
  6. Allmans etc have always been known as the Southern Rock genre, that goes back as far as the 1970’s, it’s not something new. Most of the acts on the Capricorn record label fell into that genre.
  7. Check out The Voice, Nicole Shirtywoman is turning into a MJ lookalike 😱
  8. Happens far to often, especially when a new owner/manager takes over a venue. 👎
  9. We as a band have decided not to incorporate any Cyril Smith tunes in our set.
  10. Unfortunately it’s retail in general, music stores included. I and probably a lot of folks on here are all as guilty for purchasing via the internet.
  11. Not sure any of his songs would fit in with our genre and set list, so not something we would need to consider.
  12. I wished I hadn’t done this, I now have serious ringing in my ears, tinnitus.👎
  13. Stray were my best pals favourite band when we were 14 years old, I’m pretty sure they are based in the Herts/Beds area.
  14. You must be depping, if it’s the first gig and you haven’t met them yet.😀
  15. You beat me to it, Colin has been doing this for years.
  16. I have to agree with some of the posters on here that if all the PA was there, surely someone from either of the three bands could have sorted out something sound wise to allow all the bands to play. A basic set up would have carried things through, instruments through the back line and just use the in house PA for the vocals, simples. The only thing I can assume that stopped the gig, was the venue owner probably didn’t want anyone other than the usual sound person touching the equipment.
  17. Folks on here are assuming the “sound person” was there just to manage the desk, it could have been the case that person also provides the actual PA, if that was the case then the booked bands were definitely in the sh*te and had no option. Maybe the original poster could clarify it for us.
