Hi everyone.
My name is Jon, I'm a bassplayer currently living and working in Harrogate. I play semi-professionally in a covers band playing pubs, clubs, festivals, motorbike rallies and the occasional wedding/party.
My 'thing' is getting very good results from budget priced (and 2nd hand) gear.
Peace.

Hi Tony, it's Jon from Angel Of Sin. I really must get to one of your gigs!

Hi Jon

Thanks for the response about the Forresters gig on the ROTN site. We need to get a replacement sorted for that night.

Just been on your website. Excellent set list and will definitely get to a future gig.

Sisters fan, I presume? Saw 'em live 4 times in the early 80's. Awesome live band. Welcome.

A Fear And Loathing in Las Vegas fan by any chance? :-)

Oh yes! Though it's a sin that they don't currently have a live bassist (though 1 of the guitarists often plays bass on 1 or 2 songs).

No, I've not seen it actually. Is adrenochrome the chemical / song in the film?

Uncle Wikipedia:

Author Hunter S. Thompson mentions adrenochrome in his book Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. In the book it is derived from a living donor's adrenal gland (removing the gland kills the donor; it cannot be taken from a corpse). As such, it is purported to be very exotic, and very intense: "the first wave felt like a combination of mescaline and methedrine". Thompson reported a significant perceived rise in body temperature that led to paralysis.


it's a great book, and the film ain't too bad :-)
