Sounds like GAS to me

Interestingly I've not done the software update because of the holiday period meaning that there's limited support from the software provider.

So... I'm thinking is browsers updates.

Will likely be running updates this weekend.  Prepare for chaos

Out of interest are all of you on safari?

Yep

Yeah normally behind static keys. I used my smoothound wireless I use for bass and it did great! 😁

Was nice to be able to move around again and get in on the action

Yeah would have loved a black keytar but beggers can't be choosers and hiring my usual keyboard would have cost me nearly £300 a night so not really a viable option.

This was my favourite shot of the night

I've been playing keys now in Petrichor (leeds based Doom band) for the best part of a year and things have been fantastic.  Joining a band that's been going for in the region of 3 years with plenty of shows under their belt (so right in the deep end).

We started the year playing some shows spread across the country including some pretty big "pre-festival" type slots, charity events and all dayers.  Later in the year we're supporting some world touring acts (Christian Death, A Pale Horse Named Death... apparently we do well with bands with death in their name)

However, the BIG win was landing a slot at "Under The Doom" festival in Portugal.  My first outing in Europe. Flights out weren't too pricey and accomadation was dirt cheap so it was all very feasible (thanks Air BnB!)

At the festival we were supporting bands I've grown up listening too as well as some more recent additions to the playlist (Alcest Particularly!)

This was the final lineup

Unfortunately I couldn't get my keyboard out there (cost of putting it on the flight was ridiculous due to size and weight).  So I hired a keytar (YES a keytar) and learned how to play it the day before the show

Nothing like making things easy for myself!

The show went great though!  Lots of great pics out there and some awesome videos which I'll link below

It still works for me?

What keyboard(s) are you playing? 

Unless it's something either very old or very esoteric I'd look at hiring the same model out there and taking all your patches on a laptop or other suitable device and loading them in to the hired keyboard.

It's a Korg Kronos, but unfortunately (I guess?!) I run a fair few custom patches that are "one time downloads" and tethered to individual keyboards.  It's an annoying quirk with how the Korg system works.

I've got a gig over in Portugal in December (playing keys) and wondered if anyone had any advice. Unless mistaken I believe my keyboard is too big to bring onboard even with buying an extra seat.

Have you tried contacting jim dunlop?

There's a flood control in place already but no way to stop us knowing if someone is sending you a legitimate message or not.

There were a few videos a fair while ago of Jordan Rudess playing one, I'll see if I can find them

Gear4Music are in Yorkshire

I think IE support has been discontinued. Does it work in edge?

A couple of videos.  Struggled with the lighting a bit!
 

That Blood so sweet

I think it's referring to 200mb in total with other stuff you've uploaded

Ah sorry just saw this! We were on just before Christian Death. There were a few hundred people and was a great night

Just been notified of some fan videos so I'll post links once I have them!

One of my favorite words in the English language and you have it as a band name, excellent!

And as FRFR apostle I'm sure you'd appreciate that we have both a Kemper and Helix in the band

Strangely I actually wrote a song called Petrichor prior to joining the band, which musically fits the band perfectly.  The odds of that have to be between slim and none!

Looking forward to this one!

My band Petrichor are playing at Rebellion in Manchester supporting Christian Death

Lots of bands on the bill too (all dayer type event).  If you're in the area give me a shout

If you get stuck, deaden the notes.  You can still add rhythm without necessarily "sounding" a note

Sounds interesting!

Our latest show was captured on a phone by a fan.  Surprisingly, the sound has come out pretty good!

Figured I would share it for your displeasure

Can you try a different browser or device?

What have you done?! 😂
