very pairy…

It has stayed for years, it’s the “leading man” in a rotating cast of thousands 🤣

This Orange Yamaha…

aspen green. Adore it.

We have 5/6 new tunes to road test…all mine and some with me on baritone/6string acoustic 🫣

Do you know what mate. You’re a f***ing wonderful bloke; I honestly cannot sing your praises enough. I love your main band so much “Could’ve been love” is honestly one of my favourite songs. So I’ll say this - f*** Johnny clown shoes, and he can stick his mighty wah where the sun don’t shine. Love you pal - chin up (we need to book some 2025 shows together x)

There’s one for sale at RichTone in Sheffield, £1200 ish

Just priced up a new kitchen as part of the renovations. Exactly ‘1 Wal’ expensive. 🤮

Yeah, but if they do it’ll be a short scale…maybe? I hope not…

I had a bb1600 and aside from a little fairy dust (hard to explain) I couldn’t pick between that and the bb414 I still have…in a mix at least. The 1600 felt more special.

I’ll be there again helping @walshyon the VBR stand…and doing some of this stuff too. Bigger booth this year too!

Good job I saw the Dano on eBay at 9pm last night…otherwise I would’ve beaten my own record!!!

Beautiful work - well done guys xxx

Just bought a bass. still in.

Well… it’s nowt fancy as I absolutely do not believe in pedals 😂 But, needs must - a sonicake reverb for the track I play baritone on, and a chordy moment. Just added the Marshall Regenerator as it covers Chorus/Flanger/Phaser for 2 songs. If I was a richer man, I would’ve bought a more boutique set of pedals - but to be fair, the Nether is exactly right for that OC2 type noise, the ODB3 is used as a subtle drive for a couple of tunes - the Iron Man (by @LukeFRC) is brilliant - gets used for 3 songs… Synth type sounds are now available if I need them by combining drive/mod/oct… Works for me. The pedal PSU and Board were bought with an Amazon Voucher…all in all, not a big outlay.

We’re now talking about a band MacBook pro

Absolutely going to pretend I’m going to give it a go… but there’s zero chance I’ll be in by March 😂

My present off mum and dad and my in-laws arrived today…(well they gave me £30 apiece in my cards) Grover 142c tuners for my Red Casady. Just letting them warm up before I get a screwdriver in my hand…

Need a flanger, phaser or Chorus for a song - can’t make my mind up. Will see what works.

@dub_junkiethats my all time favourite Stingray. adore it.

I think I have my answer…after much more digging. ”no” - 2 at a time is the consensus 😣 ahem. ok.

Before I start down a path of despair - googling really isn’t giving much of a definitive answer… I use an iPad and GarageBand for my demos. We use a zoom h4n to capture rehearsals, which is fab for that “capturing”. But we recently did a fairly ok band recording track by track which was alright but I did start wondering… in a box at the rehearsal room is a Behringer Uphoria 1820 interface…sat “spare” a) anyone got a quick “yeah I’ve done it” for multitracking simultaneously with GarageBand b) does anyone know if I can hook the umc1820 into an iPad (it has its own psu rather than bus powered) - I think I’d need a USB B to USB C cable to get it into the iPad. or am I just totally off the mark and need to give up… Would be nice to do some live recordings where we can mess with levels after - even just for rough demos so we can add/edit before heading into the real studio Cheers Andy x
