Quite looking forward to it now! Picking up my white Hiscox too - will look ace with my bass. The great thing about knowing the staff at an establishment is that I could get served. Take the Parasite for example, for somebody who normally has no bar presence, I could get served straight away. I couldn't get over the likeness anyway - I don't know who was more freaked, her or me! Ha ha. I think as well as geek meet, we should add a regular pie night to our diaries! I'm thinking I should give my Yamaha some Sharpie art... what you reckon? I'll start a thread...

mcnach Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 [quote name='uncle psychosis' timestamp='1355915396' post='1904290'] I really want an upright. Not convinced there are enough upright-bass friendly gigs in Edinburgh for two of us though---how's about you take odd weeks and I take even weeks? [/quote] I doubt I'd be brave to try to gig with one for quite a while, so you'd be safe. I tried playing a fretless live, and that was scary enough at first. The upright will require an extra dose of testosterone for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stingrayPete1977 Posted December 19, 2012 Author Share Posted December 19, 2012 I cant even play a fretless so I cant see me gigging with it anytime soon!

stingrayPete1977 Posted December 19, 2012 Author Share Posted December 19, 2012 Ha you know what my wife would say!

stingrayPete1977 Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 Here you go then, been back for a checkup today and remembered to get a picture of the xray for you all to see [IMG]http://i997.photobucket.com/albums/af100/stingraypete/20130128_154857.jpg[/IMG] The doctor on duty today has suggested that I may have more permanent restriction of movement than they first thought due to the fact in his words "its very distal" hence the plate wrapping up and over the end of the bone, it is more clear from the side view which I will try and photograph next time!
