Digging in at The Ferry in Glasgow. Green Ibby with the support band then the red P Bass with the main turn. I was tired the following day.

"Gonny play something you're good at!" Priceless.

Learn the bass part separately. Learn to sing the vocal separately. Fit both parts together and practice practice practice.

We suffered for a whole year with a singer/harmonica player who despite using a tablet for lyrics and arrangement couldn't or wouldn't follow what was written in front of him. I sang a lot of definite harmonies but stopped when I'd had enough of looking like I was getting it wrong. Sucked all the fun out of a good band. He's now ex of this parish and the new man sings the right words in the right places and we're all smiling again. We still make a mistake occasionally but nothing too noticeable.

The red one and the wee green one.

Jimmy Lea Larry Taylor Jack Bruce Marshall Grant Everyone else is great but these guys are my go tos for inspiration.

I agree with everything you say here. Plus the toilets are clean. Price increased to £39 from early April.

I'd rather not say. The pay was good but I'm just looking forward to Friday and Saturday which are bound to be better. Onwards and upwards.

I have a red nylon one on my Precision and a black leather one on my Ibanez shorty.

I went to see The Rezillos in Glasgow on Saturday and stayed to watch headliners The Undertones. Both bands were excellent.

I had the Pirate experience last week for the first time. The bass amp sounded like a jam jar full of wasps. I set it flat and applied small tweaks to EQ over a few songs before finally settling for... a jam jar full of wasps. It was horrible. I think you have 20 minutes from the booking start time to contact the mother ship to register a complaint so I'll try that tomorrow. Fortunately we'll be back in our regular studio from next week.

As well as everything mentioned previously, the key change function is a great feature.

Hip Hop and RAP. Well, some of it.

I saw this classic promo poster at Helensburgh Clyde Bar last night. Perhaps we don't need to be too clever eh?

And occasionally even legible. It always annoys me when the scribble isn't centred in the space

Am I correct in assuming that tablets are held in less distain than music stands by the BC collective? I sing a lot of lead in one band and learn the words and get on with it. My other band has asked me to consider covering more lead vocal when the current singer leaves next month. I don't want to be staring at a screen all gig and it's just for a quick glance to know where we are in the song. What should I buy as far as minimum size of screen goes? Ta

Definitely the thing to do to make the colours pop. We use 4 DMX fixtures each side and keep 1 on each bar set white aimed across the line where the mics are. Leave the remaining 6 units to provide the interesting stuff. Simple and effective.

Andy Powell's version of Wishbone Ash tomorrow at The Ferry in Glasgow.

On my way to see Steeleye Span tonight in Glasgow.

Black Veil Rides

Buy or listen to Canned Heats greatest hits. Larry Taylor is all you'll ever need to listen to. A Blues bass masterclass.

Damn profanity filter. The venue was The Cockerel without the erel at the end. I was there with Used Blues

Sorry, late in reading this. It was at The pink torpedo. Insert joke here.
