police squad

also Meet Loaf on his 'farewell tour' as few years ago His voice was shocking but the backing singer carried him through and the band were on fire. This was at the o2 and the second set was Bat out of hell in its entirity

no same bassist, he's excellent I went the year before and it was tune after tune, slick as hell. But this year just was a bit disappointing. I'm a huge It Bites fan too. Too much waffling between songs, as funny as Frank can be though, I just wanted songs

it's so nice to hear that I'm not the only one We are a team, best freinds etc. She also plays bass and we've done two bands together. Our house is full of gear too. The support she gave me when I slipped a disc was heroic She was also right by my side when I was learning the Bucks Fizz stuff for my audition. Helping me with dance moves etc Lockdown was fabulous

i saw the searchers last year and they were fabulous, weird isn't it Dr and the Medics, in the 80s. awful Francis Dunnery recently in Islington. Band wern't very slick as the line up had changed, Chad Wakkerman on drums was good though

try allparts or Armstrong music

Best stop Wining now

I picked up a nearly new RM 4x10 the 8 ohm one, off ebay, nearly 2 years ago. 100 quid. It was nearly Christmas which isn't a good time to sell. It's a great cab

I'm far too old but they sound great

difficult to know with this stuff, it was cheap, so I took a punt and it's ok. It has done quite a few gigs but is now retired and hanging on the wall

I bought one from ey guitar parts. Fretless maple. It was/is fine. Used it in my Police tribute The dots are in the wrong place, they are in between the frets like a fretted bass, so I got my tech to add some more in the right place (in black, the original ones were white) worth a punt I woud say

what was the amp mate?

way back in the late 80s I was playing a JayDee Mark King bass. Didn't really have a clue what I had and would love to try it now. But my first P Bass was the milestone bass for me. I realised in about 1988 that was the sound I needed. Several P basses later and they are still the sound I love the best, even though I mostly play a JMJ Mustang. I did have an epic Steinberger XL2 for a bit. Again, a bit of a game changer back in the day and a very impressive bit of kit

She has a truly exceptional voice, great songs too

My trusty '73 P bass, the pickup went open circuit and I had very little volume. I cranked everything right up and got some kind of sound that finished the gig This was 20 years ago, I always carry a spare bass now

I have Labella on my contempory. They sound superb but I cant remember their gauge 50 to 100 gauge in fact. They are quite stiff but I did a gig tuned to E flat and they worked really well

great basses these. I've had two, shouldn't have sold either of them

A lot of people have said that

Teresa is out with a guy called Stephen Price doing her version of Dollar (Stephen was also in The Fizz for a bit)

they still do that at the end of the show, during making your mind up

A quick update to this story I didn't get the gig but I did get to sing and Dance with Jay and Cheryl from Bucks Fizz (The Fizz as they are called now) I made the final 15 of which one is already a 90s boy band star (but I don't know who) I though I did ok. My vocals were spot on and the dancing passable back to normality for me now

I have a spreadsheet of all basses and guitars that I have currently, including serial numbers I also have a seperate sheet of the ones I have moved on

I liked his bass sound but I dont like hearing all those songs in the wrong key. They loose something but I also appreciate how hard they are to sing in the original key band was great as was his bass playing
