Simultaneously? 😂

Absolutely right, sir. There’s nothing wrong with your memory! And this was the book that resulted… https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ryan-Adams-Michael-Heatley/dp/0711994358/ref=sr_1_1?crid=B3648CTZTH04&keywords=Ryan+Adam's+book+Heatley&qid=1695697472&sprefix=ryan+adam's+book+heatle%2Caps%2C363&sr=8-1

A gentleman and a scholar who paid before he picked up the amp he bought, even though he didn’t have to. Bravo, Matt!

Little known fact: Carol Decker and Robert Plant shared the same hairdresser….

A bid is on now so no BIN

Can we come up with a set of songs that contain the word tattoo, as in the Pretenders’Tattooed Love Boys’?

We’ll be spending a few days and nights there next month and wondered if anyone who’s been could alert us to places of musical merit. Thank you! Mick

Otis Jay Blues Band’s second gig at the Ringwood Meeting House outside Bournemouth brought in 30-odd (odd!) people. The venue now has an easy-assemble stage that means those in the pews can see us from knees up rather than the waist! £8 admission shared with the venue, so a good time for a good cause. Playing places like this is a real bonus. As ever recently, my Flea went through an Elf/BF One10 mini rig. Just about sufficient.

Remember seeing you with Micky Kemp👍

Faith: Hugh Burns The song began life in May 1987 at PUK Studios, Denmark with Michael doing a 2-bar LinnDrum loop and Hugh Burns playing the Bo Diddley-style acoustic rhythm guitar part on a nameless metal-bodied acoustic.

This fine gentleman bought an amp I was selling on behalf of a late friend. Made the potentially complicated transaction easy. Deal with confidence.

Ringwood, Hampshire - historic venue, ancient band!

Joe is a credit to Basschat. Unreservedly recommended, deal with confidence.

An absolute gentleman who made the complicated transaction I brokered very simple and straightforward. A recommended Basschatter without a doubt.

Derrick bought one of @yorks5stringer’s amps. Made the transaction so easy. Nothing but praise for this fella!

With respect, John, I couldn’t agree with you less. Though logic is on your side it is, for me, one of those songs that sends chills. Maybe if i had heard the original first I wouldn’t think that way. Awaiting the Poole Town choir’s version of ‘Tubthumper’😁

Our second gig at an amazing venue, a former Methodist meeting house sitting pretty in the midst of a shopping centre that grew up around it! It’s difficult, as we usually play free admission venues. But the £8 is split between us and the venue. Beer is club prices and is delivered direct to the pew. Starts 7.30 and all over by 9.30 so not a late Friday night at all. We - Otis Jay Blues Band - got 49 paying customers last time. You could be the difference🙏

Have to have a combo picked up from somewhere I’n not and delivered to the other end of the country. Height: 62.5 cm Width: 52 cm Depth: 40 cm Weight 17.4kg What is my best option? Thanks for all advice, chaps! Mick

I had the Ibanez version of this. The case wouldn’t fit in my car!!
