Bought a wee thumpinator from Mark, arrived overnight and we’ll packaged. Thank you. 👍

Which reminds me - I have a rehearsal this afternoon and if the guitarist gets moody (not an uncommon occurrence), then will be my last with that band. I've quit before but the nice guys come and talk me out of it.

I will need closure on this, this evening, or I won’t be able to sleep thinking about how it went. 🤣 But been there and done that, next thing the nice guys are phoning and talking me round and I stayed, although with a different attitude to some of horse sh*t that goes on. 🙄

A private function in a local hotel venue. Kinda weird when no one dances for the first set, as some people caught up after 30 years on seeing each other. Got better in the second half, set list went out the window, but the buffet was a highlight. 🤣 

Off on two weeks holiday, so no rehearsals, let’s see how much I remember after two weeks on Pina Coladas. 😳

Bought the Headrush 112, brilliant exchange. Thank you Sir, until the next time. 👍

Exactly what I have and it’s fantastic. Complete plug and play for each instrument, which helps beginners, as well as saving time for experienced engineers. Also the ability to give everyone else control, with an iPad, over their own monitor mix should not be underestimated. 🤣 Good luck with the sale. 👍

No problem, if I get hold of some friends from Tamworth, I’ll get back to you. 👍

I’ll take it if you can courier it? 

If it falls through, I’ve been looking for one of these.

Played a gig at my old local from the 80's. Girdwoods in Wishaw. I used to frequent 7 days a week back in them far away days.

Punk band tonight and it went down a storm. Lots of great feedback and great to see some old faces from my younger days. Even got complimented on choice of songs. Few punk fans had never heard any other bands playing a lot of our set list live and a few Ramones songs they'd never even heard The Ramones play live.

Everyone was bouncing away and clapping and singing along. 

Just a great night.

Using my Sandberg MarloweDK again and it just works so well in the Punk band.

A local gig and I couldn’t make it, sorry. Had a prearranged visit planned to the Hydro. Still hoping to catch you soon though. 👍

Ordered one from Andertons this week, don’t know when it’ll arrive? Apparently I’m 6th on the waiting list. Tried one in guitar guitar a couple of years ago and liked it, but only just got round to ordering one. 

I seen Bill Bailey last night. Comedic content and must have played a over a dozen different instruments. Thoroughly enjoyed it. 

Was worth the wait, loved it and hope they do it again. 

Got tickets for this Wednesday at the Usher Hall, can’t wait. 👍

Last night, wasn’t my best. First time out of my bed for nearly two weeks, after contracting Covid and we hadn’t rehearsed for over a month, due to others having covid. Crowd seemed enthusiastic though and guys had a good time. My voice has gone and not proud of some videos that I’ve seen today of my singing. But looking forward to future, first time we’ve had the same drummer for two gigs in a row, which will bring stability, hopefully. 

If I hadn’t already bought one of these last month, I’d be having this. 👍

I’ve got a spare box for shipping and I’m in Edinburgh once a week, if you need the box. 

Only had one problem with them and they fixed it there and then. Placed an order and paid for two 15” sub’s and they were on back order. Waited and they came back in and nothing, for weeks. Phoned and they said they were showing stock and I should have been sent the order, no reason why I hadn’t had the shipped already, but we’re sent out that day. Had a few orders before and after that have went ok. 

I try and check most days. Had disappointment last month and it was my own fault, posted that if it was still there on payday, I’d buy it. Was sold a couple of hours later, should have kept my mouth shut. 🤣

Anyone else read the forum from the bottom up, like me, leaving the basses to last? Kinda build up in budget expectations, look at multiple cheaper items, so an expensive purchase doesn’t seem so bad?

My tickets have arrived for Nick Masons Saucerful of Secrets in Edinburgh for the 4th of May. Can’t remember the last time I had a ticket posted out to me?

Sorry Dave, forgot to post on Facebook. Wee Ted is the 8th of April and I’m 22nd of April. Hope I can make it to one of yours soon too. 👍

Last night was the Horse & Jockey in Lanark again. Forth gig in a row and four drummers, so it’s all getting a wee bit Spinal Tap. Song we done off the cuff, Hard to Handle, went better than some we’d rehearsed. But the one we’d rehearsed to death, Asia with Heat of the Moment, nearly fell apart. 🙄 Nice crowd and all good fun, so we’re booked to go back at the end of April. 

Bought a cab from Pete, perfect gentleman through and through. 👍
