msb Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 I was initially quite shocked to realize I had absolutely no idea that there was such a thing going on. And had been going on for ages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalMan Posted November 1 Share Posted November 1 (edited) This afternoon I had a session with mates I have known for getting on for 50 years now, were in my first band(s) and the drummer in many more afterwards. Guitar bass and drums got together in a country band playing working men’s clubs with an older bandleader as teenagers and then morphed into a spiky new wave originals band. Current vox was our ‘manager’/roadie/van driver and instigated the recent get together just before lockdown happened culminating in a support gig for my main band the weekend before the world stopped in 2020, and has got together on and off to make some noise, do a couple of gigs and generally have a laugh blasting through our back catalogue. Haven’t managed to get together for a while, but today was a day for some noise 😁 Banged through the ‘set’ and it was all pretty tight despite the gap. All good fun to get together with mates, have a laugh and make a row. We played together enough back in the day and are not yet completely senile so can get through most glitches that occur with a look or a nod that might go through a weird jam to get back on track, but I love it 🥰 A gig may happen though vox remains a weak link. The Wal came out to play, which doesn’t happen often nowadays, through my usual pedalboard [TU3 -> CE20 -> SkarBassOne-> Origin Bass DCX -> MicroThumpinator] and into the studios bass rig. Sounded lovely where I was sat. I have yet to hear recordings taken. Edited November 1 by WalMan Spelling and grammar 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted November 15 Share Posted November 15 (edited) Had a great rehearsal on Wednesday evening, the first for a while with everyone present. For a change I took my Faded Pelham Blue Non-Reverse Thunderbird which was a lot of fun to play and sounded good to me through the ABM600, but very different to the JMJ mustangs I usually play. I recorded the session with my Zoom H2n, here's 'Down In The Tube Station at Midnight' 08 Down In The Tube Station At Midnight.mp3 Edited November 15 by Jean-Luc Pickguard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
