That band do get up to some strange antics. Looks like a fun band tho. Dave

Cracking pics. Well done. Dave

Jings it looks so simple when i see it written out but i'm gonna have fun running thru it this week Rob. Dave

Cheers Rob i've been playing the Live in Berlin album all afternoon while working in the big shed. Will have a wee look now. Dave

Hi Kev, afraid he doesn't know anyone there anymore. He's not played it for a long time. Sorry he couldn't help. Dave

I've asked a DJ mate who i think plays in the Garage and waiting for him to get back to me. I'll let you know ASAP Dave

Its great when a good gig let alone two just give you that lift you needed. I do love a gig that just comes together and works. The energy is there, the feel is there and the audience seem to pick up on it and go with it. Nice one. 👌 Dave

Sorry to ask a daft question but my reading knowledge is quite basic and only used at home when learning songs but how does the Capo 2 or 4 affect the bass. ? I don't use a capo so my understanding of them is about zero. I only use it to set up basses. 👍 Guitarists i've played with have used them but i thought it was just to save them barring a chord. ? Dave

Was listening to Mockingbird by Barclay James Harvest from the Live Tapes album in the car the other day and thought that was an excellent bassline thru it. Just if you're looking for other suggestions Rob. Didn't see it on your website. Dave

All the way to Boston for a dep gig. I applaud your commitment. 😜 All credit and respect to you for stepping in like that. Its not an easy thing to do. Dave

Superb Daryl. Love those kind of venues and a decent crowd too. And using a proper bass rig this time too. Happy days sir. Dave

5 week gap for us at moment. Singer is off on hols for 3 weeks renewing his vows. We gig the day after he returns so that'll be a fun night. Still it lets me enjoy all your gig reports at an nice easy pace. 😂 Dave

Got to love your confidence. 😂 Hopefully it went well. Dave

Had the lurgy few weeks back and it left me with a bit of a cough that is slowly going away but a bad cold does that to me these days. If i hadn't tested for it i would have sworn it was covid. Rest of the band caught it 2 weeks later with no contact from me in those 2 weeks. Seems to be doing the rounds again. Dave

Very nice. Expensive basses but you sometimes get what you pay for. Dave

Liking that wig. Better than my Amazon £25 one for the Glam band. That looks like a very nice bass what i can see of it. Dave

Did see that one but a bit expensive at the moment. Dave

WOW that was an interesting thread. Nice approach, very impressive. Dave

That's an unusual looking bass. Any details welcome. Dave

My last car puncture was from lost screw from a cars inner wing or cow catcher below the engine. Pop into any local garage and they'll keep a stock of them. Easy fix by yourself. Dave

Your post had me searching for a 4 stringer version. 😂 A bit too much at the moment and probably doesn't fit in with a 70's Glam covers band. Dave

Love that bass of yours. Dave

In Central Scotland gigs we even need to watch what colours we wear 😂 Dave

Politics, football and personal relationships (wife / partner) should be kept out of bands at all costs. There are plenty of other stupid and ridiculous stuff we can talk about. We are very lucky that we have an ex marine on guitar and his stories keep us amused at every gig when getting dressed for the show. Some of the things those guys got up to are quite simply outrageous and ridiculous whether it was serious or just for fun amongst themselves. Don't think we have any fanatical footballing fans in the band. We do talk about motorbike racing as guitarist and myself are into bikes. We do talk s***e about guitars a lot of the time tho. 😂 Dave
