I think the Brian Johnson (AC/DC) on the road interview series are really good, seen the Mark Knopfler and Dave Grohl ones and watched the recent one with Roger Daltrey. Some of the ones coming up are, Sting, Robert Plant, Paul Rodgers, Nick Mason, Mick Fleetwood and a few more I can’t remember. Brian comes over as a great bloke and so down to earth, makes a great interviewer.

That’s three evenings you will have free to do some Sudoku or Crosswords.🤔

Played there a few times in the 80’s, good live venue. Its a real shame it’s closing down, sadly it will be one of many due to this damn 🦠

Just got home from our last band get together/rehearsal, that’s it now for at least four weeks. 🦠🦠🦠☹️

The toughest bit is not the main part of that song, it’s the bass fill/solo right at the song intro, getting all the right notes in the correct order.

Alison Moyet, loads of tracks to choose from, this one is stunning.

The wonderful Beth Hart.

The late great Robert Palmer.

Poor old Leland, no chance.

ZZ Top haven’t got a chance 😀

This one just speaks for itself, Christine McVie.

Paul Rodgers, awesome vocals and still has it nowadays.

Some right old tat in that lot, Bargain Hunt comes to mind.

Are you still able to continue rehearsing with Tier 3 being implemented up in your area ?

I was over in SW Florida in 2007, I visited Sam Ash music store in Sarasota, I could have picked up a new Ray for $1200, the exchange rate at the time was two dollars to the pound, £600 !! I still kick myself for not buying one at the time.

I have a teal one, I think you let yours go too cheap, mine has been my only bass and has been gigged for many years, still in almost mint condition, don’t think I would ever consider selling it.

Here’s some from one of my all time favourite bands, Journey. Do You Recall Only Solutions A Better Life Ask The Lonely Don’t Stop Believin Escape Only The Young The Party’s Over Separate Ways Too Late Change For The Better To Be Alive Again I Can Breathe Precious Time World Gone Wild Look Into The Future It’s All Too Much City Of Hope

We usually do this one for an encore. Sharp Dressed Man - ZZ Top

Walking by Myself - Savoy Brown or Gary Moore.

Bat out of Hell - Meatloaf.

Nineteen - Paul Hardcastle nnnnnnnnnnnnnnNineteen

Agree about Jeremy Vine being a complete 🔔 end, I’m sure he thinks he is highly intelligent, he has a very blinkered knowledge, real world stuff, he hasn’t got a clue, some of his comments are embarrassing.

Lizzy are one of my all time favourite bands, seen them many times way back when. I now try to see these guys perform whenever I can, the next best thing.

This one has been dropped a semi-tone.
