So a good few weeks ago, I asked on basschat if anyone local to Blackburn fancied a gig.

 

@Dankologyand @mr zed got in touch, so we had our lineup!

 

We managed to run it ourselves - Andy/Waking Day brought their lovely PA

 

Yousef/Dead Tenant brought lights and monitors/cameras (very posh)

 

we brought drums/bass rig.

 

All ran impressively smoothly - sound was great.

 

Weather was a bit overcast, but I’d say 100-130 people passed through in a big tent.

 

Absolutely loved both bands - Great use of Bass VI/Jazz by Yousef - some gorgeous chords and lovely songs.

 

Andy and Waking day are just a slick unit - all played so well - Sadowsky Will Lee sounding mega.

 

A great day was had by all!

It really was a great way to spend the afternoon and proved that Basschat is not just an effective means of emptying your bank account.

 

Many thanks to @AndyTravis for sorting the gig and backline and @mr zed for the PA and expertise in running it.

 

I absolutely love the idea of being able to go to a pub out in the sticks and hear three bands playing original music - and three very decent bands at that.

 

Video evidence will follow!

 

Still grinning about the whole thing and hoping for some further gigs together.

Nothing to add that hasn't already been said. A hugely enjoyable afternoon where I met some great people and enjoyed listening to some great music. The afternoon went without a single hitch. Everyone turned up at the right time, brought the gear they said they would bring and there were no equipment failures  Even the beer was to top quality. This is what happens when bassists organise things!
