discreet Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 [quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1405973307' post='2507162'] I did spit the dummy, but with gigs booked I never really went away. With about 15 in the diary for BBGM for next year already, it became more obvious Troyen was going to be run concurrently, but the band I was in was going to be the bread and butter band. Their original bassist has told them he can not commit the time required. I was asked to join on Saturday night at our gig. So basically, I am an embarrassed tart/brat. [/quote] Ya geet blouse!!

ash Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 I saw the band last weekend in Lancaster and you looked pretty happy up there on stage mate! Good to meet you finally and hear the band - who were excellent by the way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlfer Posted July 23, 2014 Author Share Posted July 23, 2014 (edited) Damon, being 6' 1" helps when dummy spitting . jonesbass, start a thread, expect great advice and some urine extraction. Tony, don't know what you are insinuating discreet, you are correct. Ash, 2nd set, 2nd number guitarist breaks string 2 bars into solo. Screams at me to fill and I make a very badly timed hash of it. Your kind lies are appreciated . To all others daft enough to read, I HATE ASH. He looks like one of those ridiculously handsome young 60's film stars. People who look like that have NO place in the bass world Hope your Achilles is on the mend Mr. Oh, and a Welsh organiser contacted the drummer last night, about another festival.

[/quote] I must have missed that bit or the alcohol had taken its toll! Ha! Ha! I wish the female population of a Lancaster believed that but thanks for cheering a chap up My Achilles is on the mend I'm a one crutch bass player now. Gotta say that it's a standing joke with me and my mate who is a massive Lynyrd Skynyrd fan - we always and I mean always shout for 'Freebird' at every gig we go to no matter who is playing; Magazine, VDGG, Manics, Eels, Bill Bailey, Courtney Pine, any pub band, blah, blah.... You lot did it and did it well rendering my mate speechless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
