BASainty Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Welcome Finally someone else from Cardiff! Have a good time here Quote
Bilbo Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Originally from Cwmbran, I did my first few hundred jazz gigs in Cardiff (Four Bars Inn and Sandringham Hotel, amongst others). Welcome. Quote
Tech Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 swansea man disguised as a londoner welcome to basschat! Quote
wotnwhy Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Pembrokeshire lad here, welcome aboard! There's a few members from Cardiff and South Wales in general here. Are you in any bands at the moment, what sorta stuff do you like to play? Quote
RhysP Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Howdy! I'm another Cardiffian. (Can't stand the place personally but there you go.......) Quote
wotnwhy Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 I'm suprised Rhys, Cardiff is one of only 2 cities in the UK i like, the other being Plymouth (yes, that shows i'm a country boy.. lol). Cardiff has good foundations in huge variety of music (from Jazz to rock to underground hip hop, dnb and funk to name a few). Mainly friendly people, many beautifull ladies, many beautiful places. I'm interested to know what it is you don't like about it? As I've never lived there i guess there's something i'm not seeing.. Quote

mep Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Hi & Welcome to the forum. I'm from the south west to, just a bit further south & west in south devon. I've done a few gigs in Cardiff some years ago in a Stereophonics tribute band. Can't remember the venue name but was always a blast. Quote
thatgrantboy Posted January 12, 2011 Author Posted January 12, 2011 Thanks for all the welcoming messages! I've been busy in other parts of the forum so I'd forgotten about this, but its nice seeing a lot of people taking notice I live about 20 minutes up the valley outside cardiff, and yeahh I'm in a band. I'm one of those converted-guitarist types who picked the bass up just to try it out, and since then I've only ever played bass in bands! Hahah. I venture mainly on stuff like rock, pop-punk (which my band is) etc. my band for the record is called SayWhen! (as per my avatar!) and if its allowable, you'll find us over at [url="http://www.myspace.com/saywhenwales"]http://www.myspace.com/saywhenwales[/url] Quote
