Bought a Grizzly Bass pedaL from Ian. Easy transaction with excellent communications

Play nicely children

Michael O'Leary is still raging about the cost of that one 😂

Been wracking my brains trying to think of a company/brand I dislike and then I remembered Ryan Air. In a remote French airport I put my bag on the scales and was told it was overweight and the extra charge was 90 euros. Can I have my bag back to take some stuff out please, says I ? No, came the reply, it's already been checked in. 😡😡😡 Can't say I've never used Ryan Air since, but avoid them if at all possible.

Ba dum Tish

This His album How I Go is also excellent

😂

Definitely counts Daryl 👍

Are you or any band members in this for the money? yes, but as pocket money 5.How much do you want to gig? 2-3 times a month.

Here's a video taken and produced by Terry Maxwell

Remi Harris and Man of the World - a tribute to Peter Green. Last night at The Musician in Leicester. Remi is a guitar phenomenon and a major figure in the gypsy jazz world, which is probably why many have never heard of him. He's touring at the moment so I urge you to go and see him. If you're a Peter Green fan like me, you will be amazed at the level of his playing and how well he nails the Peter Green sound and feel. The band are all excellent and tighter than a gnat's chuff.

I have noticed that at some practice studios, all the volume and gain knobs are well past the 3 o'clock position from the previous user. Mostly in Pirate where there's nobody on site to manage the place so I assume it was how the previous bassist set up. No wonder speakers cones get blown. The other common theme at the 2 Pirate studios I've used is a pervasive smell of weed everywhere

Should have mentioned where https://www.facebook.com/QuadStudios Lovely rehearsal rooms and great gear

The other rigs I've used at this rehearsal space are all full-house Markbass stacks. Our two guitarists were salivating over the Fender Reverb's they were using. Having spent years at Prate using knackered Ashdown gear or other rehearsal spaces with ancient Peavey or Marshall gear, this we're using now place is a luxury

That was me to be fair, I did move it the floor soon after 😳

Band rehearsal tonight and this was my rig I expected to be blown away, sadly the sound was very lacklustre despite much knob twiddling. Still, must be £3,000 worth there at new prices.

Didn't know that, must be why they're so cheap. Probably all rusty too

Cool, are you into the band Karan? I bought the LP 'Kraan Live' in the 70's on a whim and it's now one of my favourites. The guitar riff intro to Andy Nogger is immense. Fab Rick sound too Greetings!
