Absolutely 1000%. This has always been my reaction to any 'top 10' or 'GOAT' list. Music's not a competition, it's a way of life. I agree though that it's going to be very exciting when some of these kids a} start finding their own voice and techniques, and b} start composing.

Yes, it's essex-recording-studios again and their comedy price tags. Have a look at what they're asking for this. If that doesn't make you PYSL, nothing will.

Last week I sent an email to Jamie Body, the author of that Stage piece, giving him the background on Mr Mason and have given him links to this thread and the other Mason-based one. The auto-reply I received said that he'd be back in the office today, so I wait to see whether he responds or not.

Saturday night with Train To Skaville, a wedding at a mahoosive posh house outside Frome. Got there at half six, originally told that guests were arriving at 8 and we'd start at 9... turns out the guests were already there and the speeches were still going on. And then, as we thought we could load in, this 'singing waiter' starts up with half an hour of All Your Favourite Karaoke Hits. Then once we'd set up & checked, we had to wait till the happy couple were ready for their first dance... and wait... and wait... Anyway, we finally started at 9.45. I'd been a bit apprehensive, you know what wedding gigs can be like and a ska band seemed like an odd choice. I needn't have worried. I think it was the bride & groom's second time around, so they and their guests were all of the right age to have been into 80s second-wave ska, and my god they loved it. There were three or four blokes in particular who knew every word of every song and they were dancing like eejits all night, with the exhuberence and energy that only lager & champagne gives you We sounded good and played well, and I drove home with a smile on my face and wedge in my pocket and crawled into bed at 02:30... was asleep by 02:31

Oh I do like the King Billy. Played there many times a few years back.

Got to say I'm rather taken with this one. Like the binding a lot. I don't need a PJ bass, I really don't. No. https://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/Chicago-Select-Bass-Guitar-by-Gear4music-Reverse-Red-Burst/3L4I?_gl=1*faqu6*_ga*MTY3ODc0OTk3OC4xNjYyOTY5OTg4*_up*MQ..
