Longmayyourun Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 Browsing your forum has confirmed my long held belief that most of the wit and wisdom, and pretty much all the sanity in a band resides with the bass player, so if there's room in your ranks:- Count Me IN Me: 50 something, have played for 35 years, currently in loud covers/function/party band with attitude. My gear: Westone Thunder 1 and Precision Special through Trace AH 300 SMC. Fender acoustic for back porch noodling (is that just me?) Polytone Mini Brute for 'polite' gigs On the CD player: John Mayer's Continuum and Robert Plant/Alison Krauss Raising Sand. Thanks for having me. Look forward to sharing the brother/sisterhood Quote

Longmayyourun Posted October 15, 2009 Author Posted October 15, 2009 I'm a little confused as to why this thread surfaced again after 18 months, but anyways - thanks for the renewed welcome. Perhaps we should be working on a Devon / Cornwall bass bash (as far as I can tell, from here anywhere beyond Exeter is pretty much in the midlands ) Quote

You'd probably never go ther unless you're on the way to the Royal at Horsebridge Quote
Deep Thought Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Aah, Luckett, mining country. I used to be stationed at Launceston, and was always down that way. Spent a lot of time in Stoke Climsland in my youth, and have friends in Harrowbarrow and Rezare. Quote
