Can't blame the singer 🙂... and the mixer was a freebie from a mate of the guitarists. Vocal, guitar, bass and electric drums all through the mixer. We also recorded the rehearsal through the desk. Drums and guitar were clipping almost all the time. The FOH sound was showing the bass drum distorting all the time. I wasn't clipping, but was really low in the mix and farting periodically. This all showed up in the recording with the added bonus that one channel was louder than the other. We had problems first off with only one channel actually working, thought we'd resolved it but the recording said otherwise. Hey ho.

Bought a pedal from Alex. Very nice transaction in every way, speedy postage, great packing. Cheers Alex!

Completely agree, I didnt intend my post to sound critical of him in the slightest. I found the lesson very useful and offered to pay for his time regardless but he wouldnt take my money

I'm pretty sure he is Rachel Bolan from Skid Row

Very interested in this. A bit more info and / or vids would be nice. Are you covering his solo material as well. So many options there. Dave

Ach its months away. After my plaster came off i rode my sports bike to the physio at the local hospital and she gave me a rollocking for it but as i explained my leg was encased in motorbike boots with 5 straps up the side. It was stronger than the plaster i had on. She wasn't happy but i had no other way of getting there. I couldn't walk to my nearest bus stop to get a bus as it was difficult walking at that time plus the walk from the bus stop to the physio was even longer. Dave

How very dare you !!!! 😂 White Hi-tec baseball boots was more my thing at that age so you weren't far off the mark. Dave

Placed a wanted ad for an Anagram, had no hopes of getting one before the big uk restock occurs. Behold, a message from Gavin, sorted me right out rather than returning his. Legend! Rapid postage and a pleasure to deal with

Bet you were straining at the bit to get up and do some pogoing at that gig. ? Few of us have struggled on with broken bits Daryl @Bluewine so no excuses. Dave

You found a real rare fair teacher and the eye (ear) opener is more than worth the free "lesson".

A slightly modified Kasleder Freaky Stone Boost & Fuzz My thoughts are, I’ll never put this on a board it can live on a 9v battery and I’ll just drop it at the front of my chain whenever I feel like it. This is probably one of my favourite pedals but it does heavily benefit from an amp sim/ir. I don’t think I’d run it live without least the Element

Link was "private" @colleya Dave

Lovely time had by all showcasing the new project "A little more Gilmour' Dave Gilmour & Pink Floyd tribute act

Back then, could have passed for white socks - no biggie

For sure! Now these guys do "making it their own" brilliantly!

I’m in agreement Dave, if I can I play the song exactly, if there’s no way of working it out - and if YouTube doesn’t have it - then at that point I’ll settle for what I think it is. But I won’t add in stuff that wasn’t there, for me being as near to the original is the all important factor.

For those interested here is a comprehensive demo.
