john_the_bass Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 27brigade are at the Running Horse in Nottingham tonight from 8 ish I think. I'll be the one covered in emulsion paint...err...and playing the bass. Quote
David Nimrod Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 I went down to see this gig, last night at the 'Runner... I gotta say the crowd was paltry, & on a Sat. night too! John was easily the best musician there, with some really good bass lines. And a drummer who must be challenging to play with... Nice tone from the Ashdown 1 x 15" and Jazz bass combination Still, it worries me when gigs like this are so badly attended... It was listed in the Guardian guide too (thinks, maybe that was the problem!). Quote
john_the_bass Posted March 17, 2008 Author Posted March 17, 2008 thanks David, you're too kind! It was alright, I had a good night, despite the crowd (actually wasn't bad compared to a Leicester turnout!) and my numerous f*ck ups, but these things happen and nice to meet David too. Quote
BigRedX Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 Pity I was in London looking at my Sei or I would have been at this. However isn't 27Brigade your originals band? All the gigs at the Running Horse I've attended (none recently I must add) have been strictly blues based and mainly covers. Anyway if your playing in Nottingham again let us know and I'll do my best to attend! Quote
David Nimrod Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 Barry's left the 'Runner, he's at the Boat Club now, and the Blues have moved with him... Quote
Dread Bass Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 wish id saw this earlier i may have popped along sorry Quote

David Nimrod Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 I can feel a 'Nottingham BC night out' coming on Quote
john_the_bass Posted March 17, 2008 Author Posted March 17, 2008 yeah, 27brigade is the originals band. we went down to play with the Bets who put their own nights on there. If the boat club is the Britannia Boat Club next to the Forest Ground, we've played there with the Bets too (who are also putting their own nights on there).

I think he has left The Runner, only to return, on a number of occasions, not least because, in his absence, the place always tends to go downhill very rapidly live music-wise. Quote
