Bassassin Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 [quote]Start/finish my Project Jazz - I've had all the parts for over a year. [/quote] Errr.... [quote]De-fret my Peavey 5 - I don't play it, don't want to sell it so making it a lined (& therefore playable by me) fretless should help justify its existence.[/quote] Errr.... x2 [quote]Build headless twin-neck fretted 4/fretless 5 prog nightmare bass.[/quote] Oh, come [i]on[/i]... [quote]Set up workshop in basement in order to do all of the above.[/quote] Did this bit. But none of the above. [quote]Flog my owned-since-new (1992) , as-new, never-gigged & never-going-to-be-gigged-by-me Ibanez SR800 fretless (unlined!) - it deserves better![/quote] Did this - it's now owned by the lovely Mr David Nimrod of this parish. [quote]Set up recording studio/permanent rehearsal space in other half of basement.[/quote] Objective achieved, Captain. [quote]Demo two songs which are written but not recorded - one of which is already over 2 years old.[/quote] Sort of - neither of the songs ended up as they were started, but there's no longer a backlog of unfinished material. [quote]Record two albums with band - the "back catalogue" material & the as-yet only half-written Concept Album. And try & find a label gullible enough to release them.[/quote] Partly - recording the old stuff got postponed after the new material took precedence. There are still a few little bits & pieces finish up, but [i]The Fifth Sun[/i] (which is indeed a concept piece) is pretty much finished, including artwork. Whee. [quote]Start to collate mass of useless info about JapCrap basses & guitars for future website (Rickenbugger.com ) or book which no-one will ever, ever publish.[/quote] GTFO. [quote]Play more gigs outside the UK.[/quote] A few [u]inside[/u] the UK would have been nice. However for 2009 we have a festival date in Slovakia provisionally booked & will hopefully be playing a short tour around that date, both there & in the Czech Republic. So not bad, on balance - I think this year I might try & finish off last year's (with the possible exception of the twin neck - but you never know) and probably just buy more JapCrap... J.

OutToPlayJazz Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Luckily I didn't make any last year, but then again, looking at the list I made on the "result of 2008" it's probably a good thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
