  1. I have realised buying basses is just a justification for going to shops to try out lots of nice instruments and gear. How can I do that and not buy...
  2. I keep a strap, lead and tuner in the case with all my main basses, so I can grab one, a head and a cab and know I gave all the essentials.
  3. Maybe... adding some Muse at the moment!
  4. My bandmate's other band played my SO's birthday on Saturday. They offered to do it for a silly fee, a fairer but still reduced fee was agreed. They got a bit more than they expected on the night, and all were happy.
  5. Pressure & Time, lots of fun little fills for me.
  6. Tap water is free as a courtesy. You can't have collective punishment... The seagull swoops when she sees someone leaving.
  7. I you get a free night's entertainment week after week, you could at least ocassionally find something to buy. The person is teetotal, but could buy a mineral water, slimline drinks or just a packet of crisps. Literally NEVER put a penny behind the bar.
  8. I'm very involved with a club that puts ona lot of live music. Some bands pull in enough people to make the night pay, some don't. There are some popular bands who will give a modest discount to make sure the night pays - in return we put a bucket round and this typically makes up the difference. What irks most are regular punters who only buy tap water (not even a soft drink) and one (known as the seagull) who subsists only by swooping down on abandoned drinks...
  9. Music is a passion and a hobby for me. How many things are there that you can do that bring immediate pleasure to a large group of people? Seeing an audience really enjoy a gig is my main reward. Payment us about covering the expenses to be able to have those experiences.
  10. If people find out about the undersubscribed items and they buy 10% of tickets for relatively unpopular items they get a better win ratio and the seller reduces their losses.
  11. I won't be reporting on Saturday's gig as when the bandmember who booked it contacted them today they said they had no record of it. He shared the conversation with them but only got a vague apology 😞 At least we didn't turn up...
  12. Don't confuse turnover with value.
  13. I will.... I've seen all the tours since 2018 plus a couple of special gigs! 😁
  14. Ebay special. A few years ago.
