The fight at half time was a bit of a pig!

Yes and we've sewn a few seeds for more gigs too.

Managed to play the gig without hiring in the six DB monitors, we weren't on furlong before we knew it would be ok! Trotted out the usual pub band set and the punters enjoyed it so we made hay while the Sun shined.

Not D&B?

I wanted D&B but the guy who lends them to the venue has got a gig at some pub, The Laughing Cod, or something similar? he needs all six so we are going with DB instead.

I live in a fairly outdoorsy area with lots of mountain bikers visiting, the Ford vans are being targeted here too leaving no damage behind or finger prints.

I've told them I want six DB monitors or we will bail out.

Better than him/her feeling a big horse I suppose!

I really have got my first gig tonight with a Gated kick drum on our own pa, must be fate?

I was going to come up with a pun but I've decided not to go with the herd this time.

That will a tractor lot of attention though.

Our drummer is always latency!

I'm sat here thinking of fish puns and now you've moved the goal posts?

As long as its not stolen there is no need to make excuses, you can't take it with you.

I can't imagine there is a venue on earth that has a capacity of 2500 with monitors worse than your average 500 watt bass rig? The highest live volumes I've encountered have been practice rooms and the quietest have ALWAYS been the biggest venues! I've used a 1x12 cab in front of a few thousand people with no problems at all.

Lol

We have around 40 tracks to choose at the moment and play for around two hours a show,we play around 30 so another hour would need 45 tracks in total so playing twice a week would mean playing the whole repertoire each week at least by my rough calculations?

Plenty of pro players would disagree not to mention the damage to your ears if you are playing regularly without ear protection though?

Lol

"If you get to your gig.....and they've got Pea-vey.....who you gonna call?.... call JT"

What happens if the Tickled Trout call you for a gig and you have hired out the DB or D and B speakers to another band that night?

It depends what the road crew and guitar techs tune them to on the night, obviously we only play the trout if they will stump up the £175 fee we demand to include the full touring crew!

We play mustang Sally in C, if the venue isn't happy about that they can get another band to play instead.

Why, have you had it up to the gills now?

Paul McCartney was turned away from a party last night as the door man didn't know who he was and the kids that bought the Kanye,McCartney, Rihanna record think kanye discovered him!

Just monitoring the thread Trevor? Worse things happen at sea.

Could of gone for Shure too, lol.
