Clarky Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 (edited) Hey all, next up for Rattlin Bone is the small but friendly 12 Bar Club in Tin Pan Alley. Friday 11th March. Not sure what time we are on (will not be early, I am guessing around 11pm) but here's the flyer. What could be better than a Friday night meal in Covent Garden (or thereabouts) followed by some voodoo swamp blues? Not just any voodoo swamp blues but the No. 1 artist on UK Myspace too! Click below for photos and some of our music [url="http://www.myspace.com/rattlinbone"]http://www.myspace.com/rattlinbone[/url] If you can't make this we are playing the Hootenanny in Brixton on 9th April, a much bigger venue (with about 700 in the audience) Hope to see some of you at one of these gigs, Cheers Clarky [attachment=72993:11_march.jpg] Edited March 10, 2011 by Clarky Quote
Roland Rock Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 Clarky - really loving the Rattlin Bone music on MySpace Bit far for me (not to mention it's my anniversary that night) but will look out to see if future gigs coincide with one of my trips to London Quote
Clarky Posted February 22, 2011 Author Posted February 22, 2011 Cheers Chris and thanks for the compliments Roland. I will post an update when I know our onstage time as I suspect it might preclude most out-of-Londoners for travel reasons Quote
BigRedX Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 That's really good! I could do with a trip to London soon, so maybe I can make it that weekend... BTW is there an actual physical release of the music or is it downloads only? If it's just downloads who's offering either uncompressed or lossless compression audio tracks? Quote
Clarky Posted February 22, 2011 Author Posted February 22, 2011 Thanks Big Red X, the album is in the last mix stage but we have five downloadable tracks on ITunes, the 3-track Speaking of Happiness EP, and two singles (rain on my footsteps and Shoot me Down) Quote
dannybuoy Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 I might pop down if I can - I didn't know you had a new band. Are you playing DB at all? Not much room for one on that stage! Bit of a funny setup that venue, stand downstairs and I get a good view of your shins, or go upstairs and I can just see your heads! Played my first ever gig there. Quote

Played my first ever gig there.[/quote] I've played there 5 or 6 times with my punk band and it was a squeeze for us as a trio! As there will be around 10 of us, we will have to have some of the band ( horn section) off stage I guess. I will probably use my Eminence electric upright bass for space reasons, it's first live airing Quote
EssentialTension Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 (edited) I can't make that but have a good one. Edited February 23, 2011 by EssentialTension Quote
Low End Bee Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 Looking like a strong pissabolity.. Quote
Truckstop Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 Ah, the 12 Bar is my favourite venue ever. I played there a few times with my old band, we could only fit the drummer on the stage, the rest ofthe band just ran rampant on the floor! Truckstop Quote

Will the album be a physical CD (or vinyl)? Call me old-fashioned but I like to have physical product, download only feels so ephemeral. Also will it include the tracks you currently have available as downloads? Quote

Happy Jack Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 The beginnings of a Basschat crew is forming, could be a few of us there ... Quote

Put me down for a copy as soon as its available. And with a bit of luck I'll be at the gig too... Quote
PapillonIrl Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 Can't be there, but just wanted to say I'm really enjoying the Myspace clips. Quote
Clarky Posted February 24, 2011 Author Posted February 24, 2011 Update: we have been switched to first on stage (maybe for soundcheck reasons as there are 10 or so of us in the band), means we are on stage at [b]8.30pm.[/b] PS, thanks for kind comments papillionlrl! PPS, final mix of album finished today so once artwork sorted will be released as a CD Quote
Happy Jack Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 If that means I'm home in time for a nice cup of Ovaltine and a McVities Digestive, then I'm all for it ... Quote
dannybuoy Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 Well, that has just increased the likelihood of me (and probably others) turning up! Quote
Clarky Posted February 28, 2011 Author Posted February 28, 2011 (edited) Here's a taster of Rattlin Bone - our new video and another Youtube clip, featuring live photos Edited February 28, 2011 by Clarky Quote
Clarky Posted March 4, 2011 Author Posted March 4, 2011 Just a gentle reminder of our next gig in one week's time - see post above for a taster. We will be onstage at 8.30pm Quote
Truckstop Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 I might be able to mosey on down. Anyone fancy meeting at the Intrepid Fox for a beerio and a cigarillo beforehand? Truckstop Quote
Happy Jack Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 I've never yet quite plucked up the courage to walk into the Intrepid Fox and buy a beer. I feel hampered by my minimal tattoo count, complete absence of piercings, and lack of bizarre, spiky black accessories. Maybe if I just wear full biking leathers ... Quote

Truckstop Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 No, but it would help if you at least brought some with you. Truckstop Quote
