Day tickets usually go on sale around March for Download

I went to that show last night. Was on Richards side and very jealous of the rig!! wouldn’t fancy trying to get it in the boot though!!! the IPlayer coverage is good, but it was 100 times better in person

Most of our set has been mentioned in the posts above 😂

Try looking on the London Stadium website, they looked like they had decent seats still for sale

I would recommend getting them, if nothing else it will stop your ears getting worse. sound quality is just like a turned down version of what you would normally hear. I generally find I hear my bass more clearly than when I don’t have the plugs in. we had our first gig in 18 months on Saturday and I took my plugs out for one new song, and couldn’t wait to put them back in as it was so loud.

Don’t knock Somewhere In Time!

It’s that your ears change shape over time. I am on my third pair, and need to replace those now as they don’t quiet seal as well as they used too.

Another recommendation for ACS Custom plugs. I got the Pro 26 last time and they are great. Although they are now 4 years old and I think need replacing as they don’t fit as well as they used too.

[quote name='police squad' timestamp='1427020268' post='2724682'] ok. No pics yet as I've not had the time. opened the package at approx. 4.30 and I must say, it is rather good. Fantastic paintwork, proper metal scratchplate, a bit heavy but no heavier than my Aria SBR150 I would say (I've not weighed it yet) The Hammers logo is painted on and lacquered in. The neck is a dream. Yes it is big, as big as I've played on a 70s P Bass but it's the perfect shape for me. I had a 57 reissue Les Paul that was similar. Big neck but a perfect shape. Karl, you are more than welcome to come and try it, but I'm in Dover and it's a bit of a trek but the kettle will be on. Soundwise, P bass on steroids. Flats are amazing. They have an almost roundwound zing to them but they are heavy. I love em. A very 70's contour on the back (ie not much) I'm off out again now so I will post pics later today. The fit and finish and feel of the neck are first class. If anyone dares to diss the current crop of Mex guitars I would say they don't know what theyr're talking about. £875 on interest free over 9 months, well spent. Have I been the person to buy it first in the whole of the UK? [/quote] Hi, have you played the last SH signature bass? If so, how would you say the weight and neck width/thickness compare with this new one? Thanks

[quote name='Drax' timestamp='1426955818' post='2724005'] FWIW - Thomann return policy has been excellent when I've used it [/quote] thanks for that, i'll give it some more thought. I usually only buy from Andertons or GAK as they are only both an hour or so's drive away. Might have to take a chance on Thomann as Im not sure I can wait until May

I was hoping to get this from Andertons too, but they only got one in stock and "Police Squad" beat me too it They're not now due in stock again at Andertons until the end of May and GAK until August, apparently Fender have completely sold out! Thomman have them due early April for nearly £100 cheaper than UK prices, but I've never ordered from there before and am a bit reluctant to order something so expensive from another country where I can't easily take it back. Looks like its a waiting game.....
