I had an NS upright shipped to me from falling in2 infinity valued at £1200. UPS were the only ones who would specifically insure the instrument for the full value. Can't remember how much extra it cost but he had to go to UPS direct rather than through one of the parcel2go sites.

Ship it to me then get the purchaser to drive down to pick it up. I'll look after it honest

I must be getting old. Nowadays I won't have a drink before a gig cos I don't want to have to miss any of the show visiting the loo

back in the 70's at Newcastle city hall the support slot was the time everyone spent at the bar.

monsters of rock 1987 I saw Bon Jovi supported by Dio, Wasp, metallica , anthrax and Cinderella. That was kind of a strange mix of 'support' and headline act.

the Quo in Glasgow in December. front row centre stage. My wife is over the moon.

For an alternate take on Jaco's playing, try to listen to his Jazz street album with Brian Melvin. It's a far cry from the frenzy of his solo albums - more laid back like some of his work with Joni.

"What about Caravan Palace?".. They were the french band I meant - couldn't remember the name. Hope they get more time on Friday

Nice to see Bela Fleck and his missus last night. Also enjoyed Judy Collins (great voice still) and the band from Paris. Guy Garvey should have stayed home - dull as ......

Aerosmith. Walk this way. Teen masturbator encouraged to have sex with cheerleaders and schoolgirls by some woman's older boyfriend using pretty explicit lyrics. Great choice for Girls Aloud and the Sugababes to cover for children in need

so many good choices. Current favourites are Steve gadd and Jimmy Johnson. closely followed by ricky fataar and Hutch.

She can regularly be seen driving her audi down devilgate drive

laurel and hardy - On the trail of the lonesome pine. The aforementioned Goodies also did 'don't cry for me marge and tina' sung by Timita.

That last comment re monitors, - it depends what kind of monitors you're using. Sure - a desk to powered monitor can be an instrument lead but you could just as easily have unpowered monitors and need to run a speaker lead from whatever power amp you're using in the run.

You've chosen to report it.

I don't keep my wine long enough for it to matter

Storing wine on it's side was purely to stop the cork drying out and letting air in. Most decent wines use a screwcap now so it isn't that important which way the bottle is stored.

White cloud - "The guy that had it commissioned caused a bit of outrage on the club at the time...I personally seem to recall his online persona as coming across as vile and divisive." Indeed he was . Whenever anyone disagreed with him he'd call that person a racist. Eventually Mica Wickersham asked him to leave. I have a note of one of her comments to him ...

Some sage advice my mother gave to me long ago was, "if you think it's everyone else, consider that maybe it isn't."[/color][/size] He was last seen trying to sell the tomahawk to fund his business making his own version - the funkbass. Not much on the alembic forum rocks the boat but Hal caused quite a bit of controversy and led to a couple of long standing members quiting.

I'd be visiting from central Scotland but you're welcome to come up and visit anytime :

..."What does robert plant" was a line removed from the original perry como classic 'What did delaware'

Any signs of a 2015 event? Looking for an excuse to visit the folks

Looked at my Sig again and decided I'd become a right pretentious twat so I've amended it. Still looking forward to the next bash tho'

Steve Hackett can't.

according to radio 4 this morning, this is the first theme performed by a male artist in 30 years. I guess they don't count casino royale and quantum of solace as real james bonds then. this new one is sh*te.

From the grand circle I thought Levin's upright and stick could have been a bit more 'forward'. Otherwise, what a fantastic show!.
