  1. I stood beside him, shoulder to shoulder, in a queue at Stansted airport and was too shy to speak with him.
  2. Well it's definitely not a drummist is it?😊
  3. While we're in the mood .... we're bass players not bassists. (Dons tin hat and takes cover)
  4. You're correct Blue. I've only ever played at one event where the bar was in a separate room and it wasn't a good experience for the band.
  5. We did try, honestly, to play quietly but by set 2 it had crept up a bit volumewise. Funny how that happens even though we don't actually touch the settings.
  6. 25 feet away directly in front of us.
  7. BCers regularly refer to playing down at the Dog and Duck. Well last night I really did get to play there although being Glasgow it was The Dug n Duck. A revamped pub on the outskirts making a name for live music. Punters were a bit direct but enjoyed what we offered. Back again in December.
  8. I played in the smaller hall downstairs and upstairs saw the Rezillos, Ritchie Sambora and Wilko Johnson. All on different nights of course. A great venue. I think it held about 1300 people.
  9. So there really is a manual? I knew it.
  10. The Roadies Manual needs an update.
  11. The need for some people to gaffer tape every single cable or lead to the floor. Rips my knitting.
  12. Wilko Johnson with Norman Watt Roy in Glasgow. Only played for an hour but they were something special.
  13. In one of my bands it's all pick. In the other it's 90% fingers. I have no preference. Play what fits the songs best.
  14. My TE V15 Combo... And the wheels I put on it to move it around.
  15. First fret : Bb Eb F Constant downstrokes with your pick. Play along with the studio version a few times and the subtleties will fall into place.
  16. Ask your GP to refer you to a specialist for an ultrasound scan on your wrist to confirm or dismiss CTS. They will see any damage immediately. In the meantime buy a wrist support and wear it when you play. Or your local physio might provide one for you.
  17. Thanks. I really appreciate your help.
  18. Thanks for the advice re power. I don't drink while gigging but thanks for that warning too. All Scots know that the UK is in Europe... but I needed a topic header to get your attention.
  19. My band has been invited to play a weekend of gigs in bars in The Netherlands. Aside from travel and accommodation what else do we need to consider? It's one thing plugging a shaver into a travel adaptor but what about amplifiers? Steve Naive
  20. You'll know Honeyboy of Honeyboy Amps then?
  21. http://www.pinegroveleather.com/
  22. Slade. Jim Lea was a bass god.
  23. Does smoke from an amplifier count? Eek. Now that was scary.
