Pissed, sweaty, skanking but still getting the audience going.

He can't speak, but can understand what is being said to him to an extent, whether he chooses to acknowledge what you say is another story! I firmly believe that he is a genius in his own right. He uses his little book (which is there in the picture) to point at a picture of something that he wants (usually a jigsaw puzzle, pancakes or 'the shop') and we can communicate by using hand gestures such as high fives or waving.

I gave him my first ever bass, an encore P bass, and he loves it! ...however he just puts it in his mouth...we'll get there though![/quote]

I really admire people like you who do this sort of work helping others who really can't support themselves. I think it takes a very special person to do what you do. Keep up the good work fella.

From our sax/keys/everything player's 50th birthday party gig-ette last night. Blurry, but I kinda like it actually. Yay, I'm officially a Bass Player In A Hat

I reckon Alan looks about 40, never mind 50
was a great night, Al played a song on every instrument in the band he even played sitar on one. It was interesting to hear my bass in someone else's hands. We clubbed together and bought him a trumpet.

Aye, sound guy was a tosser, didn't have a clue what he was doing and he was just a class A arsehole.

only a little

[quote name='Linus27' post='831614' date='May 8 2010, 05:53 PM']There is something so very wrong with the picture. The bassist is fine and the bass is fine also. Its just they should not be together, the bass is with the wrong bassist [/quote]
The bass chooses the bassist

[quote name='OldGit' post='826886' date='May 3 2010, 10:10 PM']Cheeky!
I'm very happy mostly, unless discussing pay to play [/quote]
I joke of course!
I've been doing a bit of pay to play recently, helping a friend out.... he owes me big time

Okay, not sure if I've posted in here yet, so here's a couple of shots from Saturday night, playing with the Spaced Invaders (80s electro/new romantic tribute band, hence the shades, hoping not to be recognised)


and for those of you who will undoubtedly say, what's that bass? Can I see it closer, I say yes, but you'll have to look around the guitar player, who is rather bright...



and if you wanted to check if I was married, or where i rest my thumb sometimes, here's this one, my favourite pic of me this week.

[Marvin]

Very cool, love those shades mate

Out of interest who's your drummer? He looks familiar.

Pete Layton, he plays with Don and Paul Lewis (aka Some old Bloke, His son and another feller) quite a lot as well.

I thought it was Pete. Knew him some while back, but he won't remember me. He might remember my brother.
Cheers.

He's a nice enough fellow, but has appalling taste in music.

Yeah stunning skill level and breadth of musical ability. Every band should have one ...
He didn't already have a trumpet? Amazing

I'm the one on the right:
