Gank Bass

Well there we have it! Thanks for the peek behind the curtain 😊

I remember seeing some tin foil special saying that glasto is the unspoken official BBC staff summer holiday - they take thousands of staff, mostly put up in hotels/bbs in the surrounding area for a week with days either side. This was based on the amount the BBC spend to have a presence (license payer funded of course) Vs how miniscule the viewing figures/indirect revenues are for their glasto contents. It's probably bs but I kinda believe it?

Its got the Coachella effect now, more of a photo op for a lot of people

That went totally above my head but I am in awe

We did actually get loads of bookings that referenced seeing her on our Instagram so it can pay off if you're selective. I did struggle to get the strap over her for those wondering..

Nothing wrong with taking the odd freebie if its going to pay dividends down the line, we once took a freebie playing for Katie price just because we wanted to see how big they are irl 🫡

I suggested they change their name to Metallica instead

Could you talk me through the Morningstar? I'm seeing them more and more these days but I'm totally uninitiated with midi

If you have the time/patience you could try building your own bass? I had nerve issues in my shoulder from using heavy basses and thin straps. I now have a few custom builds on rotation based around the lightest bodies I could find on eBay, combined with wide bass straps, makes a huge difference! (It does however seem to amplify the pain when I occasionally break out my thunderbird)

That looks incredibly fancy! Nice board! I'm looking for that orientation but just wider - which is probably not the most desirable

Not going myself but id recommend people check out my cousin's band GIRLBAND! 3 piece rock band from Nottingham. Their recorded stuff really doesn't do them justice because they are incredible live!

Some very nice looking stuff on there! Not quite what I'm after though!

Is anyone making dual foot switches (for hx stomp) in normal sized pedal enclosures? Currently using the ampero one switch but the empty space on my board is giving me existential dread? Had a look at the boss FS but I'm seeing a common fault with latching issues Thanks!

Played a birthday party in the middle of nowhere in a sweaty tent, no food or drinks with a client who made an ignorant/racist comment to out guitarist right of the bat. I also got to use my newly finished "Grandma's wallpaper" jazz bass. So 7/10 overall

Played a corporate doo for some electrical contractors at the Derbyshire cricket club marquee, total greenhouse but the acoustics were fantastic. Highlight was someone coming up to ask me about my hx stomp patch which is a rarity but not ideal when midway through playing and singing?? Could it not wait dude?
