yorks5stringer Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 Down in London for a few days seeing the kids. Went to see Rich Hall's Showdown at the Soho Theatre tonight and it's a musical comedy show, him plus a countryish band. He spends quite a lot of time talking to the audience and guess who was sat right at the front under his gaze? When he asked me what i did I replied "I'm a Bassist" and I was invited on to the stage. We did Copperhead Road which luckily I knew and the rest is history...I guess it's all downhill from here! James Watson I think was the band bassist and he played a precision and upright double with aplomb! Big thanks to Rich and the Band. Quote

oldslapper Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 Nice one Keith! :-) Must have been embarrassing though, seeing someone play a double bass with a plumb? Quote
yorks5stringer Posted June 13, 2014 Author Posted June 13, 2014 Well he offered me the DB first and I thought " Don't know what I'm going to be playing so it would be easier to busk on the Precision", As it happens I know Copperhead Road although who ever heard of a road named after a cider? Quote
