I'm starting to go through all the stuff I may need to move on, mainly due to not working in this current situation with Covid. I currently have two pianos, and realistically I only need the one so this will have to go! It's in absolutely immaculate / 'as new' unmarked condition, having only been used in a home environment. It is generally regarded as being the best digital piano in the medium price range, and there is no shortage of glowing on line reviews. It would be ideal for a child / beginner / improver / intermediate player etc - great lockdown idea! Would also make a great 'spare' stage piano too. Obviously it has a superb weighted keyboard, and is a full 88 note model. ( My other piano a Korg SV-1 is only a 73 note version, and to be fair despite costing over 3 times the price of the Yamaha, it's not far in front of it, either playing or soundwise). The Yamaha has built in amp and speakers so ideal for using anywhere, and is reasonably light at only 11.5kgs. It comes with all of the original accessories ( Yamaha power supply, sustain pedal and removable music stand). Also included are these optional extras - a very sturdy keyboard stand/frame, as well as a Yamaha piano bench finished in cherry wood I believe. There is also a dust cover included too. Everything is immaculate and in 100% full working order. Internet prices for all of this works out at £389 for the piano, plus around £40 for the stand, £15 for the dust cover and a further £76 for the piano bench, totalling £520. ( Potential saving over new by buying mine is therefore £225 / over 43% on discount internet prices!) The piano is in East Yorkshire, and is currently cash on collection. I would be willing to deliver / meet up somewhere within say approx a 60 mile radius of Hull for just my fuel costs (diesel). I have around a dozen pictures of the piano, PM me if you'd like them emailing to you, cheers.

It sounded great didn't it? So did his Stingray 5 er as well though. The bassist is Robert Kearns, been with SC a while I believe. Last year at Glasto he used a fabulous looking Reverend Rumblefish which (again!) sounded brill. Must admit I did miss her other amazing guitarist Audley Freed. He and the brilliant Peter Stroud work so well together. Think the band a great job with a cut down line up though. Incidentally, Peter Stroud co-founded 65 amps too - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/65amps

Hey Mick. I’m fine thanks, how about yourself? Like a lot of people I’m getting increasingly worried about the current situation, and how long it will be before my band can get back to work. It’s going to be a long winter, that’s for sure. Am looking for a job to tide me over, but they are pretty thin on the ground up here. Still, am starting to go through my stuff and sell some guitars and associated items to help out with the finances - it’s quite therapeutic! All the best, Pete.

Anybody seen any of these yet? They’re all on the BBC iPlayer now. I know such populist Radio 2 stuff isn’t for a lot of people on here, but there are some great live performances to enjoy. I’ve just watched the Sheryl Crow one, which is superb. She plays guitar, Wurlitzer piano and also bass on one song. Her (somewhat reduced) band sound wonderful. Also saw the Tom Jones set. Again, his usual faultless performance (80 years old FFS!) and a great band including Dave Bronze on bass. Loads more sets on there, including amongst others Chic, The Killers, John Legend and Gregory Porter. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/p08mrjgz/radio-2-live

I seem to remember that the options for starters in Berni Steak Inns (showing my age obvs) were either soup, prawn cocktail or a small glass of orange juice! Followed by an overdone steak with not enough chips, half a grilled tomato and peas like bullets, and then ice cream or cheese and biscuits (probably for a supplement!) Aah, the good old days of fine dining. 😋

Afraid I’m with you on this as well. SC is obviously a technically gifted drummer, and also seems like a great bloke too after watching him on the recent drum documentary on the Beeb. But his playing just annoys the sh*t out of me! Never lets up or grooves , just filling every gap constantly. I know this is often the case with a 3 piece, but for me he just over eggs it a bit too much and becomes irritating after a while.

For two people too! Or maybe even four.....😀

I honestly thought it was one of these -

Although I’m not a massive Neil Young fan, his version of this old song is just sublime. Love Nicolette Larson’s harmony vocal, moves me every time I hear it.
