Meant to ask if you were using an amp or DI to desk. ? Can't quite see what's behind you in the vid. Dave

Love the catchy wee bass line in Crazy Train. Dave

Some nice wee bass bits in there. Liked that. Bass sounds nice. Dave

Nice choice of songs there. I use Money as my soundcheck as it covers all 4 strings and isn't busy and the SE can easily set things up to it. Got that tip on here somewhere. Dave

Was it not a bit weird playing on the sidewalk ? Dave

I'm guessing you were booked by the restaurant otherwise you were just "busking" 😂 Dave

Its an odd one Daryl as when it was first suggested in our band we all thought it was an excellent advertising aid for posters and sending to venues as a part of a package to get bookings. Doesn't cost a fortune to hire someone maybe at one of your more high profile gigs. I don't really understand why they wouldn't be up for it ? I'm lost on that one Daryl. Dave

Sad day for music. He did it his way and won. Huge respect to the legend that is Ozzy. RIP and condolences to the family and close friends. We will all miss you. Dave

Would the band not be interested in some pro vids to use for advertising on social media and to get gigs. Sometimes you need to fork out a bit of cash for the band. Even a good mate with a Go-Pro or Zoom could do the job. I've found some phones have a weird sound system that focuses on vocals and drops the background noise and when singing stops the guitars and bass volume comes back up to normal. Not sure if that's something you select on your phone ? Dave

They are good but i'm using my all valve Handbox WB-100 more these days. Dave

Its weird but with TT800 i find my Sandberg Marlowe sounds better thru the Subway channel rather than the Boogie channel but my VM4 sounds better thru the Boogie channel. Not tried backing of the neck pick up tho. I'm normally full on both on my Marlowe or my Jazz. Dave

I only ever drink bottled water at gigs these days. Don't miss the drinking while gigging days. What's an anti nausea pill. Never heard of them ?. At least you seem to be on the mend @Stub Mandrel. Dave

An amazingly talented band. Dave

Great song that i once played in a band. Had another great song we did that i just loved the bass part. Let It Roll by Little Feat if you fancy giving it a try Rob. Lot going on in the song with horns, guitars and keys and i found it hard making out the bass part. Dave

All the best and hopefully you're sorted. Take care and try not to overdo it. Dave

I've played thru a couple of Hartke rigs over the years. Best was an LH500 head into 2off 15" cabs with the aluminium style speakers and it had an amazing bite to the tone. Not harsh but just a sharp grinding type edge. Its hard to explain but it was a cracking tone. At a rehearsal i once had same head thru a Hartke 410 cab again with the aluminium speakers and again it was very nice. Both had a decent depth of tone too. Never tried the HA range of heads tho. Once bought the Kilo head when they came out but it was faulty on arrival and seemed to be an issue with them so it was returned to Thomann who were excellent but i lost money because of the exchange rates etc. That put me off Hartke as their customer service didn't reply at all when i had the issue. Have to admit i was impressed with the tones i got from them. Dave

Next time place a bag of chips on the car 2 down from yours and it'll be fine. 😂🤩😎 Dave

Gorgeous setting for a gig Pete. Dave

Nice one. Dave

Certainly influenced me. I've now widened my taste in music and improved my reading skills. Dave

Yep i ended up deleting all my very old pics. Dave

Was song is it in ? Are you given freedom to express yourself or is it based on a cover version ? Just curious. Dave

Wish our band would go down that route. Might swing it for next year as we will be mostly using PA hire company for our gigs. Once he has it set up on the desk he just saves the settings. Will def be looking into it for next year. Dave
