Silvia Bluejay Posted August 9, 2015 Posted August 9, 2015 (edited) Last night at the Admiral Nelson in Twickenham Happy Jack's bass rig went slightly over the top. Edited August 9, 2015 by bluejay Quote
leschirons Posted August 9, 2015 Posted August 9, 2015 (edited) I've seen something like that before on the flight deck of a 747. Edited August 9, 2015 by leschirons Quote
Mykesbass Posted August 9, 2015 Posted August 9, 2015 [quote name='Hobbayne' timestamp='1439124780' post='2840176'] Thats nice. What isn't it? [/quote]fixed, probably the easier answer :-D Quote
Happy Jack Posted August 9, 2015 Posted August 9, 2015 In all fairness, the top box there is actually the band's PA ... Quote
chris_b Posted August 9, 2015 Posted August 9, 2015 So it was you that left the big dent in the floor! Quote
dand666 Posted August 9, 2015 Posted August 9, 2015 Jeez. I just bought a new lightweight Aguilar setup. Makes life so much easier and the tone is superb. Quote
oldmanrock Posted August 9, 2015 Posted August 9, 2015 What the hell would he use at a stadium gig? Quote
Happy Jack Posted August 9, 2015 Posted August 9, 2015 I'd just add the other two Barefaced cabs! Quote
synthaside Posted August 10, 2015 Posted August 10, 2015 Wish i'd have known there were bass-chatters in Twickenham might have motivated me to make a the short trip Quote
Silvia Bluejay Posted August 10, 2015 Author Posted August 10, 2015 Oh, what a pity - I'll get back into advertising the Dogs' gigs on here too, if there are people in the area who might like to pop down to see the band. Quote
Nicko Posted August 10, 2015 Posted August 10, 2015 "Only a pub?" its legendary. But not very big. I'm surprised he windows were intact after that. Awesome. Quote
Bobthedog Posted August 10, 2015 Posted August 10, 2015 I last saw that at Devil's Tower encouraging aliens to land! Quote
Matt P Posted August 10, 2015 Posted August 10, 2015 Pffft, there's still a gap in the bottom case! actually that's awesome beyond all description! I can't imagine what it fees like with all the barefaced cabs (I know it will sound awesome!) something like standing behind a jumbo jet on takeoff? Matt Quote
Silvia Bluejay Posted August 10, 2015 Author Posted August 10, 2015 Believe it or not, the volume was fine (as expected!), but we had to adjust the mids upwards in order to allow the bass to cut through when the band was playing. Probably due to the shape of the room. Quote
BigRedX Posted August 10, 2015 Posted August 10, 2015 That's nothing! Back in the late 90s I used to play in a dance-rock band that used lots of synths and samplers as well as the traditional vocals, guitar, bass, drums line-up. On the smaller stages we would often have to be quite creative with how the gear was stacked in order to get everything on. It was not unknown for my bass stack (already 1 x 15 cab, 7U rack for amp and effects, 2 x 8 cab) to have another 8U rack of synth and sampler modules stacked on top. The guitarist would then have the same underneath his amp and effects rack instead of the usual tilt-back stand. Quote
blue Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 I recently stopped lugging my large Wembley ready stacked GK rig to bar gigs and now use a GK 1 15" combo. Makes life a lot easier and it sounds great. Blue Quote
