saying that Im prob going to get this, got to be worth a punt https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2X-Lampwin-Stage-Effect-Beam-Light-Lighting-Moving-Head-RGBW-DMX-512-Party-Disco/323416946139?_trkparms=aid%3D555018%26algo%3DPL.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D52945%26meid%3Df2b65d9108ce42f5afbfe6ea808398da%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D12%26mehot%3Dlo%26sd%3D323502667393%26itm%3D323416946139&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851

Yeah let us know what they're like, don't like spending money on the lights, save it for the gear!

We were the same as you, we used to use 2 x 4 T bars (equinox) and they were great, but quite heavy and a bit of a pain to carry around. In the end we we just use 4 of these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sound-DMX-Active-RGB-LED-PAR-Stage-Effect-Lights-Spotlight-Disco-DJ-Party-Lamp/283146598440?hash=item41ecda3828:g:pWsAAOSwvktadVc~:rk:8:pf:0 £10 a pop, really basic fade in fade out colourwash, clamp them to the sides of the PA speakers and behind the drummer, haze machine to go with 'em and we're good to go down the dog and duck they've lasted 3 years and over 100 gigs so far, I just chuck them in the leads box! These might be bit better though https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/72W-36LED-RGB-Stage-Par-Light-DMX512-Flat-Lamp-Club-Bar-DJ-Disco-Party-Lighting/222969671827?_trkparms=aid%3D555018%26algo%3DPL.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D52945%26meid%3D1c89d96e319c48bbb722ec7bf287ec6b%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D4%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D173263032567%26itm%3D222969671827&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851

yep for sure...

as above, I can't start a new post in guitar chat, any reason??

I get the impression ( and Im seriously no expert here) that Buckingham still wants the band to be creative, record new albums and tour whereas Nicks just wants to milk the old stuff and just tour for the cash, which is fair enough, and there I think lies the problem, he wanted some time to promote and tour with his solo work and the band said no, he then had the cheek to ask for the days when the band weren't playing to do his own stuff and he got sacked for his impertinance!

reading the article makes me feel a bit sorry for Buckingham TBH

you're right those demo video were fri**n awful! ☺️

strange how not one is saying how truly sh*te it is, is there some sort of selection going on or am I in a massive minority?

Dave Hall? RIP..

hmmmm. Id be inclined to stick it out and sort it out, its a big cold world out there and if the band is good as you say and you're getting plenty of gigs, trying to get it togeather with another equal band will be a big task. Our guitarist/singer has some behaviours which can be a little ehrm..frustrating but we tolerate it because the band works as a unit, plenty of gigs/money/fans etc, don't chuck it all away cos one member can be a kn@b at times, you could go years before you get this good again.

Great set list, I wouldn't get stressed if I was a bit late to the show

Hmmmm..probably Aguilar 750db into a Bareface twin 12? Need a new bass...possibly a sandberg of some sort? Pedals? A helix? So much choice!!

Active all the way, as above, RCF 735's are awesome speakers. Phil Starr should be along soon, he knows his onions

amazing how he gets that sound playing out in the fresh air!

do you play both or is one a backup just in case?

annoying for sure but I replaced the 2 valves on mine with something IMO, better anyway, so at least they helped you out there!

so you only brought 2 basses then?

whoa!

Interesting that it’s 2 hours max exposure for 90db, that’s our set length and that’s the level one of the landlords measures us by, but yeah I was seriously thinking about going back to IME’s, more for clarity than anything else, I still struggle to hear my bass clearly even with the ampeg rig behind me, having only one good working ear is a risk too far I know to risk loosing

Blimey Phil, I use I 310Art and its way too puny for me, Im thinking of upgrading to the 315mk 4, think I need new ears!

I was there in spirit if not body!
