Luckily as a musician the shifts were easy. Pretty much 3x45s a night. Sometimes up to 5 sets a day. But that's it. During port, you're off doing whatever you want. If it's a sea day, play some tunes by the pool. It's a real easy gig.

These are down to £332 on Origins Website. Tempting to sell my Aguilar TH pedal and replace it with the Black Panel.

All depends if you're going on as an individual joining the house band, or going on as part of the party band/duo e.t.c If you're going on as an individual in the house band, you need to be a great reader and have great jazz chops. Depending on the itinerary you'll be doing Jazz most nights in between production shows. The party band stuff is a lot easier and you can usually join a band who needs a bassist, or join as a whole band. Most bands have at least 300 songs. We aimed for more so we didn't get bored. Some times you could perform up to 5 times a day, and a cruise may go on for several weeks, so it's ideal not to repeat songs (just for your own sanity) but it does happen. Sets vary from deck sets to theme nights so good to have a large rep. Just turn up with your bass and pedals. Don't need anything else as everything is there. It's a cracking gig and I wouldn't have changed it for the world. Also opens you up for future work and knowing you can go back on at anytime (depending on the work - of which there is loads at the moment) is a real bonus.

Looking for a strong but lightweight bass flight case

Always taken my mono soft-case onboard with me. Never had an issue as usually they place it where they store the prams etc and mention to them that I do this every time. Flying out for cruises e.t.c I do this every time. -
Legend. Thanks mate, I'll take a look!

Hi guys, anyone familiar with a pedal that can switch channels from a mic? Ideally 1 Mic into an A/B box? Then needing a visible LED to what is muted/selected? For use with our drummer for talkback during songs. TIA

Loving my UE 18s. Sounds incredible, however now I just need to get the right EQ for my bass in my ears. I think I'm pretty close. Anyone else use the Behringer X-Air and wanna share their EQs?

All about the PG era. Prog at its finest.

Good to know, I'm using the Shure GLXD16 for my bass and needing to go wireless for my IEMS. Tempted to try this, hoping they have a return policy incase they aren't what I'm after. -
Basic stuff really, always includes, Superstition, Valerie, Sex on Fire, Mr Brightside, SWH, Get Lucky, Aint Nobody, Proud Mary, Oasis e.t.c Rock n roll is all pretty much the same as long as they give you a key before you start your all good. Most deps will send you a setlist, so as long as you've got a good rep you're all good. Usually as a dep you're last minute so may not get a set till the night before or on the day if it's very last minute.

Crazy, I bought it a few months ago for £30. Super helpful. Are you on any of the xAir Facebook pages?
-
I think I got the kindle version and it was like £6. Have a little look. It's great.

Think I'm gonna go for it. I can sell my Shure 535s and that will pay off a little of the UE6s. Just seen there's an offer on: UE11: £1180 (RRP), Our Normal Price > £955, Offer Price > £890 UE18+: £1450 (RRP), Our Normal Price > £1280, Offer Price > £1080 Thoughts?

Do you have Mark Bakers book on the XR18? Highly recommend it!

Can you pay with PayPal? 🙂

I did see this? Looks odd right?

More expensive. Around the 800/900 mark?
-
Thanks man, can I ask what you'd recommend after the UE6?
-
What's the difference in price between a 2nd hand pair of se846's and a fairly good set of customs? Running se535 at the moment and would love to go custom, just pricey af

Massively common now in the world of deps. A lot of agencies sell bands as a 'collective' allowing any musicians to turn up and play. I'm not a big fan but the majority of my gigs now are to click track.
-
This, combined with the fact that as a touring musician you rarely would have to pay for alcohol.

You accept PayPal walshy? -
Good timing of this thread. Running 2x mackie srm 12” tops and recently bought a 15”sub so I can not bring my bass cabs, also planning on going to IEMs to save space on monitors also. Also having issues with cars to gigs recently so would love to get rid of the sub at some point and just run tops. We tried the mackie thump 15s but seems too muddy. I know the mackies aren’t the greatest so would love to upgrade at some point.
