Gents, Im kinda managing my band and were now keen to start gigging. Our first gig is the rhythm of the world festival in Hitchin at Remix club which si great, but thats only come around thanks to the guy who runs our studio being a friendly guy and liking our material too!!! Any suggestions of how to get gigs in the local and wider area would be appreciated. Do we contact venues... Do we try promoters... Do we try other things ??.. Cheers Dan

Hi... Im not quite a newbie as ive brought from and messaged quite a few guys on here but I thought its only polite to do an intro. Im Dan, Bass player in Tokyo Outsiders (www.myspace.comthetokyooutsiders), Im 31 and from kempston, Bedford. Been playing around 5 years I guess and love it!!!!!!! Experience wise ive played with 2 bands including my current band but thsi will be the first one gigging. Were doing the Ryhthm of the World Festival in Hitchin at Remix on the 12th July and were bricking it to be honest. The band is a four piece, me on Bass and BV, Glenn on Guitar and Lead Vocals, Andy on the drums and Kris on Keys. Andy pand Kris are new to the band thing and we (in our current guise) have been togteher about 10 weeks!!!!! Musically were Indie/Rock/Pop/Dance.. with influences (well mine) from editors, joy division, killers, Kings of Leon, Kasabian, Foo Fighters, Foals, Tokyo Police Club, Bloc Party and We Are Scientists (big fav)... and loads more Really keen to start gigging proper so any tips or links would be genuinely appreciated! Kit wise I play a Yamaha BB614, currently through a Hartke A100 but ive just brought an Ashdown ABM 210T 500 and a 4 x 10 ashdown extension cab. I love the ashdown sound and play through Ashdown at the studio (London Road in Baldock, great place) so had to buy some gear. Pedal wise Ive just traded by Pod XT Live with Steve for his Yamaha magicstomp. Ive alos got a EHX Big Muff (dont rate it), Akai Headrush, and Boss Bf-3, AW-3, ODB-3, TU-2 with a behringer compressor... pretty much all brought in teh last 6/8 weeks off here Anyway what more can I say... um im a Spurs and work for the worlds 3rd largest retail company even though im an engineer by trade (but a buyer as a job)... and im getting married in October Cheers gents Dan

Great seller, easy to deal with and willing to be flexible. Would reccomend.

Very light, nice neck but the price was more than I'd been expecting (mind you, so was everything else in this particular shop).[/quote] RBX's are very light anyway so dont see the benefit, but I do like teh "look" of them and teh liht up tone/volume controls. Be interetsed to hear more opinions as im a big yamaha fan!!
