Hi from Dublin

[Chris Dow]

Playing bass since I was 17 now 66 and still at it. Played semi pro for the last 40 yrs and now retired but still keeping the hand in.  Play almost everyday with a Korg Pandora so as not to annoy the missus.  Front room is still packed with gig gear ie Gallien Kreuger 800RB (The Tank), 2X12" GK Neo cab and a Mark Bass 2X10" Combo.  Basses include 1978 Fender Jazz, a Tokai Jazz Fretless  (Jaco Style), 1996 Musicman Stingray, 5 & 6 sting Ibanez 505/506 and a beautiful  Irish Made Thompson 4 string.  I also play a bit of  Irish trad on Bouzouki/Mandola and Tenor Banjo.

Welcome Chris.  I'm 100 miles north, in Belfast.  Also playing for a long time (50 years!) and semi-retired, but still gigging every week.  Before the virus anyway.

Welcome Chris.

I enjoyed a few years living in Dublin during the eighties.  Blues nights in the Harcourt Hotel basement were a favourite.
