new drummer?

... over broken glass and past the occasional fight. Yup, I've played some quality gigs!

i've just posted this in the 'Jazz' thread, but relevant here: Marshall Allen is still gigging and touring the world, leading the Sun Ra Arkestra. He's 95 years old. I missed last years gigs, but hope to get to Subterania in that London on 9th May.

Original lineup reunion! 😮

but, but, but there are three hats! 😧

despite the graphic they are good all round guitars.

Before I purchased mine, I tried/played/borrowed many heads. I knew I wanted SS and light, so class D seemed the way to go. There was a GK I was impressed by, the Aguilar didn't do it for me, nor any Mark Bass, some were way out of my budget, and others bigger than 1u in height. When I tried a TecAmp Puma, it ticked all my boxes plus it was easy to get a great sound straightaway with my bass. So when one became available on Basschat at a more than reasonable price I bought it If you want to have a fiddle with it on Saturday you are more than welcome?

TechAmp Puma 500 (the 300 & 900 are pretty good too ) Everything you ask for and more.

this makes me queasy just looking at it!

ouch! What Genesis tribute bands are knocking around... 😝

if Dave Grohl can do a gig sat in a chair - and Axel Rose a tour sat in a chair - why can't Phil?

next up, pics from when you gig it!

I've seen that bass for years and never noticed 😆

Saturday night, Belmont Conservative Club. Considered wearing a 'f**k Boris' t-shirt 😝 Nah, it's more a Social Club than anything, the kind of thing that's taken over from WMC's. Cheap drinks, nice size stage, dancefloor, with tables beyond. So that any pics taken from tables during the first couple of songs look like we're playing to an empty club. Things soon livened up, packed dancefloor from halfway through the first set. Good people, good gig. Managed to do the entire gig without realising my cab was upside down.

ooh, that could work. Will pm you. ta!

tell that to the 'Stones!

unfortunately to be able to download them, I would need to purchase a midi thing, which would then get me kicked out of this group again 😆

last year I bought a Future Impact pedal. But I haven't got round to actually using it...

the Hofner with the paint job

then it's not the one I think it is! As you were...

if it's the one I think it is (?) it has already been re-sprayed, the re-spray itself now being vintage.
