wateroftyne Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 Hey gang I'm playing at Newcastle City Hall on Saturday night, and the local news came along to film a bit for it. If you're at a loose and and fancy watching it, [url="http://www.bbc.co.uk/i/b021nq5l/?t=13m21s"]step right this way...[/url] Don't try and listen for the bass. The mic didn't pick it up... Quote
Clarky Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 (edited) Are you David Walliam? But seriously, thats a bazzing gig you got there. Much kudos Michael and a fab DVD for you to treasure, to add to your Bobby Robson (K)night one Edited June 6, 2013 by Clarky Quote

icastle Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 Excellent! I even knew what you were playing at the very beginning when the presenter was introducing the story. Quote
Bassman Sam Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 Funny, I thought WoT was bigger. It looked like a dwarf and his rig was about 50m behind the rest of the band. No wonder we couldn't hear you. [size=4] [/size] [size=4]Honestly, nice one WoT, lovely looking fretless and I would be a happy man to be part of that line up. Envious me.[/size] Quote
paulconnolly Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 Nice one WoT. Lindisfarne always a fave especially the Christmas shows - great fun. Quote
wateroftyne Posted June 7, 2013 Author Posted June 7, 2013 (edited) Cheers, all! That was only part of the band - we were just having a knock-about for the cameras. Here's a clip of the full shebang from one of last year's gigs: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SyQxCVHPmUw[/media] Edited June 7, 2013 by wateroftyne Quote
karlfer Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 Fabulous WOT, dead jealous. The Band, The Hall. Me and Her Who Makes Toast By Breathing On Bread got engaged at the Christmas Eve gig at The Hall, 1979. A band I was in did the Darlington version, Snot on The Skerne . Made up for you fella, brilliantly done! Karl. Quote

BassTractor Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 I repeat myself when under stress, but: Congrats! I heard some bass! Now all we need is for you practise this stuff (ask them for the tabs) and that you put a playalong on YouTube. It's not too fast, is it? best, bert Quote
paulconnolly Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 Ha, this thread has made me dig out my copy of the live album Magic In The Air. It is playing at a goodly volume as I type Quote
