JD & The Trams playing Watusi festival near Cardiff this friday - gonna be a belter! [url="http://watusifestival.co.uk"]watusifestival.co.uk[/url]

Tasty!

I wore baggy lightweight trousers for a gig once and a wasp flew up there during the second song - I didn't get stung but I did invent about 8 new dance styles in less than 3 minutes! I should've taken a lesson from Rawlinson End and worn bicycle clips

Musicguard Insurance covers your gear in the house, at gigs, in a vehicle and also includes £5m of public liability - very useful! The only downside is that when you add new items/remove them it costs £7 quid a time which can add up to a lot if you're selling/buying gear as much as most basschat members.....

Wedding gig last night with a brazilian jazz guitarist depping for our usual guy who was at a festival. Worked out really well and the new jazzier sound suited the occasion. Had to play 'I know you got soul' for about 20 mins as there was an IMMENSE soul train going on and they would have murdered us if we'd stopped!

First gig for the new funk band - at a party in a mansion in Wiltshire! Went amazingly well, had to extend move on up to a 25 min version and a couple of others too as people wouldn't let us stop! Ended up 'borrowing' a boat and watching the sun come up on the local lake - good times!

EDIT: It was on the last page and you commented on it you crazy fool! But it is good enough to put up 2, or 3 or 4 or 5 times!

It's a shame - the Detroit spinners.

It wasn't hard after all!

Does anyone know where I can find a transcription for this? Cheers!

The Trumpeter and Sax player in my band are married. I can't work out if that's really good for them or really bad......

U2: have a carbon footprint larger than Brazil, zero dress sense, make Bartok sound snappy and cool. Micheal Eavis: who is Uncle Bulgaria this year? Ooops did I say that out loud... ficelles[/quote] Possibly the best thing I've ever read on BC...

My fingers know a lot more songs than my (conscious) brain does.

They're both sexy though I prefer the blue/blonde one.

A typo perhaps?
