Hello, OP here. 

The local scene is small and cliquey enough that I don’t want to look like I’m wingeing. I put something on my Facebook status and I’m surprised, touched even, by the responses from friends, mates in other bands and people who come to see us regularly. Also, I know how few bass players there are locally, I may well have the last laugh yet. 
 

All there is to do now is move on and enjoy a bit of a break until the next thing comes along. Happy Christmas 🙂

Well I ain’t doing it 😂😂😂😂

Try playing When The Huntsman Comes A Marching by Chris T T in front of a field full of young farmers and pro-hunting Countryside Alliance members.... that went well.

I have tix for Truck. Consider yourselves voted for

My Jazz spends more time plummeting to the floor than it does round my neck. Luckily it's basically bullet proof 

Wolf Alice in Brum last Thursday.  Didn't kniw much about them but they were superb. The place was rocking from start to finish. Shame the support bands (Superfood and Sunflower Bean) suffered from slightly iffy sound, though. 

I wrote my own

I have a massive chunk of finish missing by the next pocket under the upper horn on my Jazz. But it still sounds the same so why worry?

I needed a name that wasn't the same as the Australian Mr Versatile country and western superstar.

Dresden Dolls version of Warpigs is f***ing insane.

Two gigs this weekend. Saturday was the Greedy Goose Fair out in the Gloucestershire countryside. Rum, piratical shenanigans and more rum. Then on Sunday, my regular gig down the Wheatsheaf in Oxford which went from a solo gig to a cajon assisted mass singalong. Splendid.

Played Love Like A Man on Leo Lyons' jazz bass (with the whole band watching). Pressure much?

Steve Miller's short but sweet solo on Young Boy by Paul McCartney

I have a MIM Jazz (2006) and it is a f***ing beast.

Ed Tudor Pole was in a season 2 episode as well.

I do Turtle Power and the fresh Prince theme in my solo set...

PMed about a couple of bits too

He was indeed reading of an autocue


I love Oasis. They soundtracked a fantastic part of my life and I will love them forever for it.
And kudos for the OP getting an Oasis track into the subject heading

Sziget 2009 in Budapest.

It was awesome. Every second of it.

I switched to Download highlights on Sky Arts. Devin Townsend were epic

Gavin Dunbar - Camera Obscura

Pete Townsend used a shield because of his tinnitus

Nahhhh. No more than any other instrument, except the Mongolian Nose Flute. That bad boy has had it's day.

The Lemon Twigs were intrigiuing. A band called Gaffer Tape Sandy on now.

I know its early days but the soundmix on pretty much everything has been great,

Kula Shaker

These Royal Bloods ain't too shabby.... never heard them before
