another dreamer...

Ha , don't want to make anyone envious! But I was amazed how many people turned up. I'm guessing there's a real hunger for live music out there, if we could persuade venues to find ways of getting us outdoors whilst the weather is ok, ie up to september/october then we might get a few gigs under our belts before winter comes and God knows what will happen. I know the club secretary was over the moon with the turnout (and his takings), I'm going to be messaging all our usual venues and see if there's any chance of moving outdoors, some have space (ie car parks)

from last nights gig (yes really!)

Got to gig last night at an outside event at a social club. Great atmosphere, about 90 people turned up all on separate tables, felt amazing to be gigging agin, got rebooked for a bike rally there at the end of the month. Enjoy the guitarist bum notes fluffery toward the end..I did!

awesome talent

Gigging Tonight at an outside event (social Club) will let you know how it goes, fingers crossed the weather holds..

This. There's a few pubs we've been playing regularly for 10 years, 3 or 4 times a year and the landlords have become friends. They wouldn't ask us to play for free unless they really were desperate and for those select few I'd happily help out this year at least whilst everyone has their backs to the wall.

same here, I came all tooled up for our recording session in February, Ampeg SVT head, Dave Hall Preamp, there were trace elliots and mesa in the studio. I was well excited. Turns out the engineer just DI'd from my bass via a standard Di box straight to the audio interface and then Logic, that was it. Sounded great to be fair so God knows what voodoo he used in Logic.

actual playing starts 1:02 and it's not actually a bass...

gig booked for 1st August in a social club (well outside obviously) and a bikers festival in september, both still supposedly going ahead and booked post lockdown but we shall see...good excuse to get back to rehearsing again at least!

Geeksville!

for the actual editing I can recommend DaVinci Resolve 16, it's free and by some margin the most intuitive and feature packed one I've tried out of a few. It also includes an actual DAW built in (Fairlight) so you can record in real time over your edited videos, ie add keys or extra vocals to your videos etc..and you can load 3rd party VST plugins as well, remarkable for a free version..

play cowboys from Hell and you get my vote!

got our first gig confirmed August 1st at a social club, outside of course, weather permitting 5pm and its a payer, so fingers crossed..

one of the last gigs before lockdown ;(

If you haven't really ever connected to it then why the hesitation? Is it because you won't get what you paid for it?

jeez I had to turn the volume waay down, what did you record with, a 25K Rig?!

bit of the Jimmy going on in your title, careful!

shhhhhh FFS!!

Jeez, 6 strings is bad enough...

"has that tone we all know and love"...really? Like two cats F@cking?

these have had some fantastic reviews, Im tempted myself https://www.studiospares.com/Headphones-and-Speakers/Studio-Monitors/Studiospares-SN5A-Active-Studio-Monitor_248060.htm review here https://proaudioblog.co.uk/studiospares-studio-monitor-speakers-listening-tests/

First rehearsal was rough (especially me), second much better as I got such a p1ss taking from the drummer that I made sure to go through the setlist the day before the second rehearsal. It'll come back quickly for you I'm sure..
