D'AddarioUK Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 [quote name='Chownybass' timestamp='1456337734' post='2988054'] We've got your NYXL bass string on our Chowny NT-J prototype that we will have at the show too - if that's of interest. [/quote] It's shaping up to be an exciting weekend, I'll have to pop by the Chowny booth and have a noodle. I look forward to seeing you all there, just keep an eye out for the man with a huge beard wearing a D'Addario T-Shirt! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dood Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 [quote name='D'AddarioUK' timestamp='1456333229' post='2987996'] Elaine & I will be on hand to answer any D'Addario related enquiries. Come and see us on stand D12 to try out NYXL Bass. [/quote] This makes me very happy! See you both there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Jack Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 [quote name='Sibob' timestamp='1456311600' post='2987604'] In case people didn't know, he's a Watford lad (or around that area anyway) and Slipknot are one of the biggest (American) metal bands in the world [/quote] [quote name='NickD' timestamp='1456320815' post='2987782'] He's also the guitar/amp tech at Titan Studios Watford too I think. Pretty sure he serviced my amp. [/quote] Did anyone else read these two posts and think ... WTF? The bass player for "one of the biggest metal bands in the world" is also "the guitar/amp tech" at a shop in Watford? This is the same studio where Robert Trujillo is a shop assistant, right?

[/quote] It suprised me. Not being particularly familiar with Slipknot I didn't realise at the time. When I first inquired the guy asked if it was an urgent job as his tech was on tour for a couple of weeks with his band... never realised it was with a big band.

Sibob Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Yeah, Michael League, Pino, Richard Bona, Esperanza Spalding, Bobby Vega. Lots of amazing players to work through, lets hope the show continues for many years to fit them all in Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
such Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Yeah, I thought Michael League would be realistic as he will be actually touring the UK at the time and having the weekend off BTW, I'm going to his (well, Bill Laurance's) gig at Ronnie's on Monday after LBGS, anyone else?

Not a complaint, I'm still a big fan of Bill's music. Sorry for derailing the thread then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
