[quote name='waynepunkdude' post='860371' date='Jun 7 2010, 09:21 PM']That's a fair point when I do a Punk scene gig we usually share cabs and drums, it's usually London gigs where the problem arises. How many times have I used you cab?[/quote] We use each others cabs everytime we play together. Without fail. Except when we're on different stages... Thats how it works, we phone you up a few days before saying "you bring drums and a guitar cab we'll bring bass cab and a guitar cab?" you go "yea cool" and its sorted. If anyone else phones up we say, "we'll have all the cabs and drum shells, you just need breakables" If they dont phone up, they use their own gear, unless its wonk unit. they can do what they want.

We lend cabs, you break it you buy it. Dont lend heads cos ours are all on their way out anyway. We do over 100 gigs a year... It depends on your scene. The gigs we do have a proper community feel about them. Everyone helps out, everyones friends, everyones pleasant. Then you get the occasional people who turn up with just a bass and a lead... "where do i plug in?" Speak to the soundman, not my problem. Sorted. You need to judge it on the situation. If we're playing with a band whos just come back from america and all they have is their instruments and they email us a few days before explaining the situation and asking to borrow gear, thats fine. If a local band turns up on the night with just instruments expecting to borrow gear, thats not fine. Easy. Look after each other and you'll get looked after. No respect, no gig.

My 810 is the best thing ive ever bought. Doing the gigs i do, the sound is always awful and its always loud. without the 810 id hardly ever hear myself. its easy to move cos like everyone else said, you can roll it or its a 2 person job. unless you're a solo act, you'll have another person. I keep mine in the van... just because its the only space i have to keep it. But you wont regret getting one, having that power behind you just makes gigging so much easier. saves your fingers too cos you dont play so hard trying to hear yourself. the drummer loves it cos hes got bass right at his head. it looks amazing too. and people get our your way. its easy to life in and out of the van/ car by yourself and if you get an old, beaten one it wont even matter, throw it around, drag it upstairs. it'll just take it and keep on blasting the back of your head everynight. do it.

Was announced today that my band is playing playing the Local Heroes Stage at Hevy Fest this year. The local heroes stage runs between mainstage acts so there is always something going on, we're playing between THE KING BLUES and THE SUBWAYS. Playing the same day as Glassjaw, Napalm Death, Sepultura, Black Dahlia Murder... Gona be fun. Info [url="http://festival.hevy.co.uk"]HERE[/url] Anybody going? Or anyone else playing? band links: [url="http://facebook.com/talanband"]FACEBOOK[/url] [url="http://MYSPACE.COM/TALANUK"]MYSPACE[/url]
