He also (I think) still has his Vox cabs. Lovely guy, I wish I could have had longer but you know what it is with this packing up lark. Id love to come over for a jam, its a bit of a treck for me on a tuesday night with early work on weds. Very tempted though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Funk Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Brilliant. What a story! Reminds me of a time a guy came over to buy an old bit of studio kit off me. We chatted for 10 minutes or so about my band at the time and music in general. On the way out to the cash machine, I asked him if he's playing in any bands at the moment. Nick: Well, I've just left Jamiroquai... Me: Oh right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xilddx Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Excellent!! Budgie were brilliant! Sort of the original RUSH, in a way. I also feel a Spotify session coming on, haven't heard them for years! Speaking of icons, I played a little benefit gig on Friday with Mick Jones as a special guest. I didn't bother speaking to him. He seemed like a really nice bloke though. There were many people there sucking up to him, bit embarrassing to see really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm like a starstruck teenager [/quote] Ha ha wellllllllll Before I knew who he was he got up after me to play bass at the jam and I handed him my Shuker 5 string Precision and showed him the controls . "Yes I know how a Precision works" he said gently "but I'm not sure about this extra string" Of course what really caught him out was the fixed strap on locks as I'm about 6 inches taller and a fair bit wider than Burke. He coped even though it was dangling around his knees I've seen him play in a jam sesion house band with a Kramer aluminium necked bass, an ancient trace head and a big old vox 1x15 cab .. I've ordered Budgie's greatest hits to see what the fuss is all about .. Edited February 15, 2009 by OldGit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
