I've played in a Prince Tribute band as my main gig for the last 16 years (https://www.facebook.com/EndorphinmachinePrinceTributeBand), so naturally have become a big fan.
Too many songs to choose a favourite, but from a playing perspective I enjoy Act of God, The Everlasting Now and A Love Bizarre.

Robin Mullarkey playing with Louis Cole now. Very much enjoying it!

I've had this. I've found two things help prevent it:
* Making sure I drink enough water before and during the gig.
* Proper stage monitoring so I'm not playing harder than necessary in an attempt to hear myself.

Think this is the White Room clip people are talking about.
He was a great bass player in my opinion.

+1 for Legally Blonde. The score is really good.
Sister Act also has some good bass parts, don't know if it would be considered grade 8 standard though. The Last 5 Years is also fantastic, especially if you're after fretless stuff.
I've not played these, but the cast recording of The Bodyguard musical has some great playing on it. Songs for a New World is also brilliant.

Yeah Sam Wilkes is excellent. He plays with Knower too. Check them out if you haven't already.

Stage right for me, but I play with a left handed drummer.

Yep I just got that too. Huawei P Smart

I've tried it on a couple of places on my board, with different daisy chain cables. Thought at one point that had fixed it but the issue resurfaced at the last couple of gigs. Power supply does seem most likely, but it's really weird that I can't replicate other than when I'm gigging. Makes it difficult to investigate!

You can't power this pedal with a 9v battery, only a power supply. I do have some other 9v adaptors knocking around though, might take one to the next gig (I can't replicate the problem at home) and experiment.

I'm having a weird problem with a Matryoshka pedal that I'm looking for some advice on. When I connect to my amp through an active DI box, which is powered by phantom power from the desk, my Matryoshka just produces white noise when engaged. This doesn't happen when I DI from my amp, so it's something to do with the DI box. I'm thinking maybe it's a ground loop issue, but the ground lift on the DI is on. The Matyoshka pedal is powered using a Diago powerstation, with a bunch of other pedals on the board.
Anyone got any ideas what's going on?

Zach Rizer is very good, especially if you're into effects.

I came to bass from playing piano. Started when I was 12 and never touched a guitar. I got an acoustic when I was around 18, but only started playing it properly in my late 20s. I can now knock out songs on the acoustic, but would not call myself a guitarist. I wouldn't say it's affected the way I play bass at all.
-
Do you have a picture of the pedal?
-
Did this sell?
-
Yeah, I think it was either the DI box or the power in the venue. Had two gigs this weekend and everything was fine using the DI from my amp.
-
It's probably worth saying that when I said "exactly the same set up," that it was a different physical DI box of the same make. Everything else was the same.
-
Tried a different kettle lead, and tried plugging into a different outlet on the same side of the stage. After that we just ditched my rig altogether!
Been looking at the Palmer pli 01 or something similar, but I'm not sure this would have helped since there was no buzz coming from my cab, just the pa and monitors.
-
Hi, are you still selling this?
-
It was one of these:
They also tried a passive Di box (not sure of make/model) which had the same problem, as did the DI from my amp.
It was sat on top of the amp, although we did try moving it away which didn't improve things either.
Should probably also mention that I run a pedalboard powered by a diago power supply.

At my gig tonight I encountered a very strange issue. The sound guys took a DI into the desk, but there was a noticeable buzz which went away if I switched my amp off. This happened even when there was nothing plugged into the amp, so I was straight into the DI box but without the link cable to my amp. I ended up doing the gig just using a wedge for monitoring.
What could this be? It's like the amp is interfering with the DI box somehow. Maybe an earthing problem somewhere?
The venue was Birmingham O2 academy 2 in case anyone has experienced something similar there. I had no problems last night with exactly the same setup.

V99 in Staffordshire for me. Just went for the Sunday, and chose the Manic Street Preachers over James Brown!

Watching it too. The guy on bass is incredible! Jerry Barnes apparently.
Which companies are dead to you?

LG after my mobile phone died on the way to a gig in Aberystwyth. I was using Google maps on my phone to find the gig (festival, so just a field). Had to stop and buy a map, but had no way of contacting anyone. Luckily I managed to find the field, but will never buy an LG product again!
