Jaykingfunk Posted September 8, 2016 Author Posted September 8, 2016 [quote name='SpondonBassed' timestamp='1473322801' post='3128984'] Welcome Jay. Is that The Woot in your avatar? [/quote] It is indeed! I've been lucky enough to see him twice and met him both times! I even took my Musicman and got it signed the second time! He's a really nice bloke and super laid back... Quote
SpondonBassed Posted September 8, 2016 Posted September 8, 2016 We were just saying the other day what a nice bloke he seems to be. His solo style polarises opinion somewhat in here though. If you have a rummage around you'll see. Quote
Ashweb Posted September 8, 2016 Posted September 8, 2016 Welcome to you, Jay. I've spent some time in Yorkshire with work; beautiful area of the country. You're very lucky. See you on a thread somewhere :-) Quote
