Its kind getting past that stage now with just occasional itch. Been quite an interesting experience but not sure i'll keep it much longer. Doesn't suit the 70's Glam Rock covers band i'm in The worst bit is when you decide to shave it all off and find out what’s been living in it 😀 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apologies to those repulsed by sunburst and tort.... Nowt wrong with sunburst and tort! 😉 Edited May 14, 2020 by thebrig 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmccombe7 Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Nice P basses. I think the tort suits that bass more than any other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know. They're not exactly sophisticated bass lines but they'll be a real test of my stamina. Getting that much drive into my groove may prove a challenge but it's definitely one worth tackling. It's harder than it looks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great songs though, more notes and technical prowess does not a good song make. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's harder than it looks. 153 consecutive C-notes over the solo does require an odd mix of concentration and groove... and then if you don't hit that little run down everyone is going to notice 🙂 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashweb Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 There's not too many photos of me around - I prefer to be taking the photo rather than be in it; but here's a recent shot I took during my daily walk. Lockdown finds me a bit stranded in Weston-Super-Mare as I am renting a place down here while working in Bristol and that's where I was when lockdown called so not able to go home to the Midlands. Still, trying to make the best of it by sending photos back to my Wife detailing the torrid time I'm having down here... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceBass3901 Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 (edited) Here's me from a few years ago playing a show with my old ska band, The Mighty Shrimp. I'll try and get a slightly updated one as well, but not a lot has changed! Same bass, amp and cab (directly behind me), hat, jacket and boots. Hell, I still have those jeans as well! Except the current ska band is Ska Dogs, so bigger, land-dwelling creature with fewer legs. Edited May 15, 2020 by BruceBass3901 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjones Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 (edited) This is me playing with my main band. I don't look anything like this anymore since I went 'Lockdown Crazy' and grew a beard and cut off all my hair. It's okay, I may look like a psycho but I don't like liver or fava beans Edited May 15, 2020 by gjones 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubit Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 First one taken when I was 21 and we did our demo in the studio. Second is with current lockdown hair and beard 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
