I've heard of trading fours, whereby each member takes it in turn to solo for four bars. it only lasts until each member has solo'd though.

It’s quite scary really the lengths people will go to scamming you. Did the person who did the buying here use a normal PayPal payment funded by a debit or credit card? If they did then surely they could get their money back from the bank. I bought something from eBay once that never got sent, NatWest refunded me in a few days, I just had to send them screenshots of the emails and eBay screens as proof.

Tips for taming volume of acoustic drums?

Practice? -
Cassette tapes haven't disappeared at all, if anything they're growing in popularity. There's at least five cassette only labels that I know of. I released a cassette album in January, it sold surprisingly well, there's another being released by the same label early next month, and a release is scheduled on a different label in September. Cassettes are probably quite genre specific. Check out these labels : https://rustedtonerecordings.bandcamp.com/music https://softerror.bandcamp.com/album/care-work

How many songs can you play? (Without help/ music/ tabs)
ambient replied to T-Bay's topic in General Discussion
Purely improvising though, similar to Steve Lawson. -

ambient replied to T-Bay's topic in General Discussion
None. One of the downsides I guess of only ever playing reading gigs. I know a fair few jazz standards, but only the changes that I’d improvise over. -
Advice needed about entry to 5 string
ambient replied to meltedbuzzbox's topic in General Discussion
I’ve got a 6 string set of flats that I’ve been advertising for ages in the sales section if you’re interested. They’re brand new and unused. -

Slightly off topic but I did that a few years ago when I flew back from a cruise ship gig. It meant my bass could travel in my luggage rather than separately.

I wouldn’t. Which I know is no use to you. Just make sure it’s well packed and properly and fully insured to the full value.

Video Location Needed - Abandoned/Run Down Factory
ambient replied to Lozz196's topic in General Discussion
If you travel by train you see hundreds of such sites. They're usually located on the edge of towns and cities. -
Closed backs work fine in the situation you’re describing. Check out the reviews on amazon. There’s also a few websites like this dedicated to headphones that have reviews. I’ve got beyerdynamic dt770 Pro, they’re closed back and silent when they on my head. I wear them literally everywhere, and I’ve sat many times in quiet coaches on trains with them on, with no complaints. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0016MNAAI/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Use what you’ve already got, you should have GarageBand. If for some reason you haven’t you can just download it from the App Store. It’s easy to use, and very good, amazing actually considering you get it free. A good and simple interface is something like a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2. Your mac should recognise it straight off. There are lots of good tutorials on YouTube.

Does my pub band really need 4 PA speakers?
ambient replied to solo4652's topic in General Discussion
It sounds like a band that I'd be leaving if it's that loud. What do the pubs and audience think?
