Total Watts

  1. Played one on Sunday with a mate as a duo, me on acoustic, him on his Tele. We did Sonnet (the Verve), Jean Genie (me and him used to be in a Bowie tribute band) and Sit Down by James as a tribute to a close friend who died recently and someone we had done numerous gigs with. It was his favourite song. The whole pub joined in and most of us had tears in our eyes at the end. Hopefully a fitting tribute to a remarkable man. RIP Brian Lund
  2. We recorded 6 tracks at a studio, cost around £400 and then hired a room above a pub for £50 (The Queen of Bradgate in Leicester if you know it). Our guitarists brother filmed it while we mimed and then edited to this showreel. I guess a professional filming and editing would charge around £400 so we saved that cost. Proves you can get something done for less than a grand. We've had at least 10 gigs from it so a great investment. https://youtu.be/5aGfwosPMwk?si=WZ4oI5QiMWHiqLFN
  3. Laney R500H 500w Bass Amp I'll put some current pics up tomorrow but here's the thread from when I bought it off here. I've only used it live a couple of times. Moving it on cos I've just bought an EBS 350 off here and I don't need 3 amps. No trades ta I have the original box and courier will be around £10. There was one on eBay from Japan for £400+ so obviously it's rare, desirable and probably lawsuit era 😂 New pics added Original post

  4. Nope, no response from the OP
  5. Thanks for the update, I checked the band's bio on Faceache so assumed the guy I saw was Luca. Yes, Gus is a fabulous player
  6. You should definitely go, they're amazing. Full of energy, tight as a gnat's chuff and the bass player, Luca Pisanu, is amazing. Apologies for the sound, here's a snippet from last night's gig https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1738ocgr2a/
  7. Tom McGuire and the Brass holes at Rescue Rooms in Nottingham this Saturday. Looks like it'll be a hoot https://www.tomandthebrassholes.com/about-us
  8. Nice. I've been contemplating a sojourn into fretless territory. Thinking cap on
  9. Thanks I've discovered that for a five string I need wide spacing pmd you
  10. Is this still available?
  11. I do I've got a Mike Lull PJ 30" loaded with flats. It's my go to gigging bass and my 2 other Lulls sit at home unplayed, but not unloved
  12. She's great, I've got a few of her albums. Haven't seen her live yet, but I think she's touring in the UK in January so I'll be grabbing a ticket.
  13. Oh man, just listened to this and I think I've found my new favourite bass player. Groove, rhythm, excellent pace, with some flashy but classy chord work (but not overdone). That solo, my fellow low-enders, is the bow-wow's whatsit's
