Good day today (Despite enduring some minor food poisoning from a previous night...). Came away with an Ortega bass uke, but it was agreed with the missus in advance, so all good! Highlight was Frank Bello's masterclass - the guy was just having too much fun!

Well, I've set myself up in the smallest hotel room in the world... Seriously wondering how they managed to fit a *single* bed in here... Still, it's in the shadow of the Olympia so it's all good!

I didn't like it much. Too synthy and not really natural sounding. Prefer the whammy - still digital-y but getting better each generation.

Your tone us not exactly the same as Sting's? That, my friend, is because you are not Sting...

Just a few photos for you from last night's gig!
