Hope you enjoy:

Awesome, Mike! Lovely tone on your bass and gobsmackingly-good playing as usual. I think I heard some "whoops" and "yeahs!" from the crowd at points during your solo. Rightly so.

This is the J-Sonics outfit, right? Damn funky stuff mate. The rest of the band seem top notch too.

If you ever head to Manchester, let me know… you'd go down a storm at somewhere like [url="http://bandonthewall.org/"]Band On The Wall[/url] or [url="http://www.mattandphreds.com/"]Matt and Phred's[/url]. In fact there might still be chance to get a slot at this year's [url="http://www.manchesterjazz.com/"]Manchester Jazz Festival[/url]?? (hint, hint). The promoter is based in the building where I work, if you ever want putting in touch. Saves me from hauling my lazy ass down to London, which I'm going to have to do at some point...

Thanks Paul - we'd love to come to Manchester - bit of a trip from London but I do know the guy who books gigs at Band on the Wall so... I should have also said that these videos were filmed by the Hideaway - they have a 4 camera set up and had an actual video engineer in the house that night editing and mixing this footage - it really is one of the best venues in London, and there's nothing like it south of the river..!

On that note here's one last tune - written by the guitarist - I love playing this latin jazz funk fusion stuff - great fun for everyone concerned:

Thanks for the positive feedback - I love this band

Cheers
