For Record Store Day today me and my son Joe went to Casbah Records in Greenwich, it was opening at 9am, we got there at 8:50 and there was quite a queue (see pics), got into the shop at about 10:30 and luckily got what I wanted, a copy of Ian Hunter's new album "DEFIANCE PART 2 - FICTION". It was a tad chilly in London this morning and I was glad to get back home !! 🥶😂 Anyone else buy anything for this years RSD ? 😃 John

Utter twaddle 😛 John 😎

Buy a tandem and get a friend/your partner to hold the combo while you steer at the front !! 😂 Seriously a trailer seems the best option John 😎

Very nice, congratulations on the NBD John

That looks amazing, congrats on the NBD John

Looks fantastic, congratulations John

I sent the seller a message in a bottle about the bass !! 😛 John 😎

What a terrific place you have John 😎

If the wife's home: Bass -> Hotone Ampero One Multi-Fx unit -> Headphones 😛 If the wife's out: Bass -> Fender Rumble LT25 Combo John 😎

What a great end to a lovely story, congratulations on the new bass, it looks fantastic John 😎

So sorry for your loss, what a terrible thing to happen to you and your family, life is so unfair at times, my condolences to you all in these sad and difficult times John

Me, the wife and our son Joe went out for lunch in Greenwich, London and it turned into a new bass day sort of !!, it's a short scale and will fit any gig bag 😛 £4 from a stall in Greenwich Market 😆 John 😃

Totally agree, that is my favourite ever live album, MOTT are my #1 😎 John

Just finished watching the film, it was terrific, just ordered the CD via Bandcamp John 😎

Can't say I hate any song, if I dislike a tune I just won't listen to it again !! 😛 John 😎

My condolences on your terrible news, all the best John

So sorry about your diagnosis, basschat is fantastic for selling, I've bought and sold on here and it's been problem free, all the best Ray John 😎

Take Me Back To The 80's John

That's an absolute beauty !! John 😎

And you can use it as a Ninja Star when the guitarist annoys you 😛 John 😎

What a bargain, nice one, looks terrific John

Many years ago me and my mate Cliff went to see Ian Hunter at the Astoria in London, we got there really early so went to a bar upstairs in the venue and I notice the legendary Ariel Bender aka Luther Grosvenor (of Spooky Tooth, Stealer's Wheel & Mott The Hoople fame ) standing at the bar, we walk up to the bar and he turns and says to me "Don't I know you from somewhere" (which made my day !!) , we'd never actually met but we had a lovely chat the three of us, later he excused himself to go backstage to meet up with Mr Hunter, he was a lovely guy and so down to earth John 😎
