  1. To me that equates as supportive. Need a certain strength of relationship for that to work.
  2. Oh, and in answer to the second part of the OP, yes, it is very important.
  3. My wife has been brilliant. When kids were younger the only restriction on gigs was nothing weekend daytime. She hasn't been into the music I've been playing in the past, so now kids are older she doesn't come to gigs, but a change in musical style post lockdown could help there.
  4. Yes, very nice. Thanks for sharing.
  5. I've been hearing lots of really good new stuff on BBC 6 Music lately. All sorts of genres, some of which I'm not personally a fan, but can still hear its merits. Just as a taster, I'll kick off with: Curtis Harding Joel Culpepper Black Country New Road Squid Jungle Dry Cleaning What has caught your ear this year?
  6. That will be a lot of other brands that they make for as well then (G&L as one already mentioned here).
  7. Like this. Funny the dislike for rap. Much of it seems to claim it isn't music/musical. Personally I think a lot of rap producers use the music element very cleverly. Even if it use of samples this still requires musical knowledge and skill. I did have to look up what Hip Hop is as opposed to rap. Glad I did.
  8. Both incredible players, but I'm going to agree with you entirely here.
  9. Yes, likewise. No cinema release near me so looks like DVD in September.
  10. Heard a little bit about this on Lauren Laverne's 6 Music show this morning - sounds fabulous!
  11. That Tele looks great. On a much milder vibe, I loved the Peterbilt bass made from a dynamite box.
  12. Well the thread has been worth it just for that! Hope you like the original?
  13. Nadine Shah stood in for Guy Garvey on 6 Music on Sunday. Thought this was a corker!
  14. I've known of him as a Jazz artist. Seems like he works on a lot on arts projects. Looks like a very talented guy.
  15. Don't know if he is doing this show elsewhere, but this looks like an interesting gig, and just down the road from me! https://botw.ticketline.co.uk/order/tickets/13357879/cleveland-watkiss-presents-the-great-jamaican-songbook-at-komedia-brighton-brighton-komedia-2021-10-25-19-30-00
  16. Bit of a theme with their covers - slightly reminiscent of Eloise. Big, grandiose production numbers.
  17. Pretty jealous. Would love to play some Band stuff again, especially with a drummer that gets it.
  18. Kula Shaker covered Deep Purple, but I didn't know until later that Deep Purple were already covering this:
  19. This. There is a thread that I will try to find of Basschatters near to you who are happy to help out if you don't fancy doing it yourself. Update:
  20. Yes, sorry, wasn't implying anything against older music. Big fan of Autumn Leaves, although I don't like Miller. Was partly a reflection of my late mum's attitude who hated Vera Lynn and the fact that everyone thought it was what 'people if her age' wanted. She was a Sinatra fan but also partial to a bit of Pink Floyd and Rolling Stones.
  21. The old adage, how do you make a small fortune in the music business? Start with a large one.
  22. Fabulous. The funny thing is though, this music is now older than most of the old folk we have left. Even for those in there 90s Glen Miller is music of their childhood.
  23. Must check that out, thanks.
