Middle aged people a less likely to be part of an exciting live music scene. You may not like it but it's a fact. UK Jazz is amazing right now, Cardiff has an excellent scene thanks to the courses at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama.

Just found this thread, as bit late! Watching BBC2 late night education TV recently (the schedule says it was on between 02:00 and 04:00 on 27 May 2007) I saw a series of programmes about making things which must be part of a schools design and technology course. The series is called "Techno - Making It" for 11-14 year olds. The items were quite short, about 20 minutes. The first was about go-carts and the second was about bass guitars, the item was called "The Bass". And lo, who should be featured but Martin Petersen and Chris McIntyre making a SeiBass for a young female bass player (Yolanda?). Must have been some time ago because they both look like teenagers (to me) and I know Chris left The Gallery 3 or so years ago. Sadly I've failed to find any more details on the BBC website, but it's out there somewhere! Nick S Yolanda Has just shared it from her FB page - amazing program!

Not me, but it's a beautiful place to camp!

The first version of the Thunder II was P/P the second was PJ, the first version of the III was PJ and the second had soapbars

Yeah we tried it for our set and it’s weirdly poo live

Massive bargain. Will be sold very quickly.

I have one of these you can have for free. I bought it when I lost my vox on tour, it's so hissy it hurts to use - thankfully the vox turned up in a case soon after.

It is - I'm in it! Blink during the club scene and you'll miss me though 😄

I really love the basslines by Nate Edgar and, from the original band, Scott Palmer for John Browns Body.

Played that (in a mash up with Ganga smuggling) last night and tonight in 2 different bands - huge tune that always goes down well.

C. Get your music heard by new audiences. Never ever do B

Yep, I got this set up a while ago to test it out and still using it as it works so well!

Wilderness was great, good crowd, amazing stage and crew 😀 Topped it off by getting to watch Incognito after our set.

Played at a business networking event in Oxford on Wednesday. Why? Why book a band that isn't background music for an event that exists solely for people to talk to each other? Anyway, as was predicted, everyone went outside to continue talking whilst we played to the bar staff. Off to Wilderness festival today and then have a dep disco wedding set tomorrow so a nice busy weekend of music playing 😀
