Blademan_98 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Hi All I just got back from the Jools Holland gig I was meant to be at in December! Dave Swift on bass was playing a EUB and a Dingwall [url="http://www.daveswiftbass.com/pages/basses/Dingwall-Prima-Artist-Six-String.html"]http://www.daveswiftbass.com/pages/basses/...Six-String.html[/url] It was a great gig and Dave did a cool solo! Just thought you might like to know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gareth Hughes Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 And a lovely guy too. I was playing with Foy Vance in Ronnie Scott's a few years back. Dave was in the band going on before us. At soundcheck I went up to him, asking about his Rob Allen bass he was playing. Gave me a load of time and insight, even offered it to me to play. Top bloke - and demon bass player.

martinbass7750 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I went to see them when they played in cheltenham last december - great band. The bass wasn't really audible from where I sat, about 20 metres behind the mixing desk! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stingrayPete1977 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Had a chat with him at bass day uk oop Manchester last year. Nice bloke , nice player , nice Dingwall (we all had a play that day). Looks a bit like Crez as Mrs T pointed out on the Jools Holland thread too.
