  4. [quote name='megallica' post='1274040' date='Jun 18 2011, 06:23 PM']Ugh, surely the steam would give him away? I've given this too much thought already...[/quote] At that time we were playing big halls with big stages and he used to walk over to his amp with his back to the crowd and adjust his Mesa boogie while pissehhh and the drummer used to shout through his headset "dirty basstard" !
  5. So his name is Nigel then ?
  6. I think i mentioned on here before but i used to play in a band wth a guitarist/alco who alway wore black leather trousers on stage so he could piss himself without the punters knowing. His boots stank and NOBODY else would lift his mic stand.
  7. [quote name='skankdelvar' post='1273909' date='Jun 18 2011, 05:04 PM']Not that I don't like these setlists. By God, I like 'em. Perfect evening out for me. But I'm 53 yrs old. For pity's sake, isn't anyone thinking about the children? [/quote] I agree mate i'm always saying to the other two "we need a few up to date ones" but i remember as a youngster twenty years ago watching a band in their sixties doing chris reas road to hell and thinking this is EMBARRASSING. Because they thought they were so with it and hip and looked dodgy as hell s i'm willing to sing lady ga ga but the young uns mightnt buy it .

  9. [quote name='leschirons' post='1273125' date='Jun 17 2011, 08:10 PM']You've got quite a few cool choices there for a trio. I play with a couple of trios here and we try to choose stuff that's suited to the available instruments so there's not too much missing from the general sound of the number. You could try Little wing Born to be wild Sharp dressed man All the small things Basket case Tulsa time I can't stand the rain Mercy Peaceful easy feeling Pretty vacant Ever fallen in love 500 miles (I'm gonna be) Old man Honky tonk women Boom boom (out go the lights) Cliffs of Dover[/quote] Cheers pal ....couple of good ones there mate cheers.

  11. As the thread starter it wasnt my intention to get the guy a hard time. Just wanted to know who the guy was so if a mod wants to close this that would be grand.
  12. Not really my thing just wondering who the guy is.
  13. [quote name='slobluesine' post='1263102' date='Jun 9 2011, 06:16 PM']night passage aint bad either[/quote] x2
  14. Cheers Bilbo ...That has to be the best version of "Portrait" i've ever had the privilege to hear . And he looks so humble at the end .
  15. Very nice .
  16. [quote name='lowdown' post='1220142' date='May 4 2011, 06:01 PM']Dedicated to you Pete. Must admit my iPod is full of Gordon Goodwin's Big Phat Band at the moment - some stonking playing. Garry[/quote] Love that mate cheers !
  17. I blew a 15" speaker in a carlsbro stingray once on the third number. I had to go through the PA with no monitor . Ahhh i used to be a confident Jaco clone.
  18. [quote name='phil.i.stein' post='1201356' date='Apr 15 2011, 11:02 PM']never in the course of human music, have there ever been so many bass-players, so willing, yet so unable.. to suck their own cocks. [/quote] On the money sir
  19. "Do you give lessons" usually makes me smile.
  20. [quote name='AndyTravis' post='1202300' date='Apr 17 2011, 12:08 AM']I doubt it's anything major mate, It's just a mad panic because it's new and it's not perfect... Keep calm, and let one of them adjust it, i'm sure you'll be happy pretty quick, dont let it ruin the bass for you. Andy[/quote] Good advice mate.
  21. [quote name='BottomE' post='1197707' date='Apr 13 2011, 12:44 AM']The GoodFoot Band at the Soul Cellar in Southampton. We did a great gig there with a Brighton based band called Mean Pappa Lean who were most excellent. Right at the beggining there is a great comeback by a member of the audience about his job. This song started about 10bpm to fast - drummer realised and slowed it...not for long. And i screwed up the bar where i have a little bit to twiddle on 2:37 boo hoo [/quote] Really enjoyed that mate ...very good.
  22. [quote name='WalMan' post='1197098' date='Apr 12 2011, 04:54 PM']Set my MB combo flat with a smidge of VLE & VLF and love it, so I can only agree it was probably the room[/quote] Flat is the way to go . I do the same with my CMD 12" combo .
  23. Sounds great . I would love to have that finger sound , plenty of depth. Very under rated is DJ.
  24. A guy when i was 17 said to me "have you heard Jaco" ? He then gave me Invitation Which led to Weather report + Miles Davis + Monk + Mingus. But the track i've always loved is....
