OK me bad Just removed 75mb of old stuff

I bought a set of these (ebay item number 120712190969) and put them on my peavey 4x10 I can push the cab with one finger, very good quality wheels

A good match would be my Matamp 2x12 rated at 800W 4ohms sealed and loaded with with 2 Delta Pro 12A drivers... it was designed to be used with my Matamp GT200(200W valve amp). Very Loud and punchy. PM me if you aree interested and we'll argue about a price (Just got a PJB 24B so no longer need the 2x12) but do need the space

I can't beleive this hasn't made the cut yet Boogie Nights - Heatwave

Slap Bass Sounds like a Pneumatic Staple Gun with a dodgy trigger I'd love to be good at it though

I guess mine must be: Bongo 5 HS Desert Gold - BMW M5 Bongo 5 HH Saphire Black - BMW Alpina B10

Not sure if they run comfortably into 2 ohms as Peavey claim though -anyone have experience of this?[/quote] I run my Mk VI XP heads at 2 ohms every gig not had a problem in the last 8 months. Bulletproof and plenty loud enough running at 400W / 2 ohms through Peavey 4x10TVX and Matamp 2x12 in fact earth shattering is a better description Got to be the most bang for buck available

I use a Peavey 4x10 with a vertically stacked Matamp 2x12 on top and it's easy to hear at the back of the venue even on low volumes

[quote name='NickH' post='1208077' date='Apr 22 2011, 10:56 AM']Gigging Saturday but it's a private affair. Monday night is the Ice House pub in Shirley, Southampton - nice venue, nice crowd, open to all[/quote] This looks like a winner... might see you there if we make it

First single I ever bought was "Let's groove" Awesome band

The Mrs and I are off down to Portsmouth area on Sunday for a few days on the motorbikes... Just wondering if any of you guys have got any gigs on in the area

Ok here are my five... Victor Wooten Pino Entwhistle (bought "too late the hero" when I was a youngster and it blew me away) James Jamerson MarlowDK ("YouTube" makes it look effortless and inspires me to practice)

[quote name='burgundymouse' post='1202161' date='Apr 16 2011, 09:26 PM']So is turning up alone weird? What shoud I expect? How good will everyone be and indeed how does it all work? Advice very gratefully received![/quote] Like others have said already, take your bass with you and leave it in the car to start with and have a listen to what's happening... odds on they will have a list of the songs they play which will almost always include most of the standards. The bass player will be the friendliest of the bunch Wait until he hands bass duties over to someone that has turned up to play (and let him get his pint) and go and tell him exactly where you are at with your playing and he will probably do all he can to help you. This is how I started a few years ago and the bass player for the jam night band I met has become one of my closest friends, I even go and do bass duties on the jam nights every now and then if he cant make it. If you have never played on stage live you will probably get flushed and your knees will knock.... a lot Try and relax and don't bottle it because the buzz you get when you come off stage is awesome and you will be hooked. I went away from my first jam determined to get "brown eyed girl" nailed Jamming will teach you so much about improvising and thinking on your feet. Blues bass lines are the staple and learn the shapes/patterns so you can just move them round the fretboard to suit the guitarists or singers key. Above all ENJOY it
