BT! Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 [quote name='thatgrantboy' post='1087296' date='Jan 12 2011, 09:54 PM']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] As you in that band im assuming you know carly? Shes awesome Quote

RosG Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 Well I never - an active group of Cardiff Bass players. Hey you lot - how about meeting up at the Tribute gig for the Old Git himself, The Globe, Albany Road, Cardiff, featuring The Soul Destroyers (staring Rich) and Wonderbrass (see Rich's post). Tickets £10 - in aid of the Samaritans and Yogamobility (a local Cardiff charity). Can be got from me, Mrs Old Git, Ros (not a bass player but living with several fine examples that Cal our son may get round to playing at some point) - [email protected]. See you there Ros Quote

Evil Undead Posted February 7, 2011 Posted February 7, 2011 [quote name='thatgrantboy' post='1086482' date='Jan 12 2011, 10:39 AM']Hello to the basschat forum! Been browsing for a fair bit, so finally decided to join up to share my views and whatnot, and take advantage of what seems like a thriving sales section! Not to mention some of the chat in the manufacturers section has me GASing for some sparkly new gear that I can't afford So Hi...I'm Grant A breakdown of my gear list is in my sig, but I'll be upgrading my main rig soon![/quote] Hello! Would you be the same Grant near Cardiff that I sold a hard case to last year over on UG? It had a misfits patch on, and was fitted for a jazz bass. If not, then I apologise for being random all over your thread Quote
