Chaos Daveo

Alive. It helps being in a band I love being in, nothing better.

The Rigger in Newcastle under Lyme on Friday,local one for us with two other corking local acts. Very happy as the place was quite busy and my svt pro had its first run out since repair and worked a treat, went down well and we not rehearsed between this gig and the last so was a real buzz..

As long as you are happy and love doing what you do, everything else is irrelevant and it will show. The amount of amazing bands musically I've seen who bore me with little or no stage presence. Nodding there heads when wrong notes are played etc, to me perfection comes at a cost at times. I've had a philosophy on gigs and the band I'm in, if anyone makes a mistake,laugh,take the piss enjoy it even more. I make sure I play each gig like its my last and enjoy the hell out of it.

Hairy cabs are the way forward,more natural organic sound and something to soak the odd bear spillage up..

[quote name='lemmywinks' timestamp='1473285102' post='3128795'] I use a USB powered mini desk, probably the best option if you want to use it with a Windows laptop or tablet, it's one of these: https://reverb.com/uk/item/2635070-refurbished-behringer-xenyx-302usb-premium-5-input-mixer-and-usb-audio-interface-full-warranty?_aid=pla&pla=1&gclid=Cj0KEQjw9b6-BRCq7YP34tvW_uUBEiQAkK3svfJiqKSCMmkDqZCTVCEFGaXnMjWtxrqlbM9dRYIB7S8aAm9D8P8HAQ Had some cheap Sennheisers but recently picked up a pair of bluetooth heapdhones from Aldi (with 3.5mm jack aux in) which actually go a fair bit deeper and sound clearer. The main advantage for me is cutting down on cables, The desk uses just a single USB cable for power and also uses this as a line in. I have a bluetooth adapter on the way from China to cut out another cable too so eventually it will be a single guitar lead and a short USB cable. I hate cables but want the flexibility of a desk so I can quickly boost or cut volume levels or low end on seprate channels. It also functions as an audio interface, has a switchable aux in on channel 2 (with seperate 2 band eq like chanel 1) and works with my Windows tablet. Before this I used a small desk but that had a bulky power brick and required a seperate aux in cable so wasn't as neat. I also had a Korg Pandora PX3B which was very portable but sounded lifeless to me, handy little thing though. [/quote] Thanks for this, I'm snapping one up on payday

[quote name='dood' timestamp='1473186967' post='3127848'] I don't think there's a limit, but don't just add a whole album - pick a couple of songs from each artist. That sounds fair right? [/quote] Cool

How many can we add ?

[quote name='cheddatom' timestamp='1473154066' post='3127364'] Looks good, I'll have to check it out. I'd not heard of your band Daveo but I'm following them on Facebook now as you're local, hope to catch a gig soon [/quote] Thanks man, I think we we will be back at the Rigger soon, so hopefully can catch you then

[quote name='PaulGibsonBass' timestamp='1473151446' post='3127316'] Looks like my kind of venue... [/quote] It really is top draw

Great gig at a new venue in Stafford, The Cellar Bar a cracking venue and much needed in the area. It was pretty packed out and the crowd were fantastic, possibly the best gig I've every done in performance and atmosphere. This was on Saturday and I'm only just recovering...

Just sold my Oversized Les Paul to Bris, comunication was prompt and the transaction went smoothly. Top chap by all counts and a pleasure to deal with. Deal with confidence.

Yes, I will take three, perhaps not....

I have a beer, just one,I relax and talk about anything,if it's a multiple band gig I stand at the front and support the other bands. I enjoy each gig as if it's my last, life is to short not to, worrying if it all will go wrong won't help at all. Think of how much you have practiced and enjoy it !!!!

Little monster is a great track which we've covered three times, everytime it went down a storm.

Owned one and it was a fantastic player and tone,wildly underestimated imo. One of those I'd wish I'd not sold it moments six months down the line, enjoy it
