Can't work out the embedding thing at the moment so here's a link [url="http://www.facebook.com/v/393656837337472"]http://www.facebook....393656837337472[/url] Salisbury Diamond Jubilee bash, sounds and images recorded on a flip up cam thing. Headphones give at least some idea of the sound quality, both stage sound and front of house were amazing. Anybody been able to embed anything other than YouTube? I've tried a few things to get this Facebook one working without any luck.

Hello and welcome. Might be after some PA bits as it happens.

First off a big hello to Zoe. We did the Salisbury Jubilee gig, I've got to be honest it was somewhat bigger than I expected. The photo shows the crowd just as we went on.

Got one in Salisbury at 6 tonight. Weather is looking a bit dicey but there should be a proper event stage and all that. The after show party looks like a bit of a wheeze as well

http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Intercepteurs/96962669511 Need to sort some new music out though

Tuner, usually. I'm such a pro.

Our contribution to Salisbury Live, loads of bands on all over town tonight. Make yourself known to me as Basschatter and...well, to be honest you'll probably end up doing the sound. Going to be dang hot tonight whatever happens

Concluded a splendid deal with Grumble for a fretless bass. Let me test it before sending him a cheque. Can not praise him highly enough really

My contribution to low quality luthiery featured the same spec [url="http://basschat.co.uk/uploads/monthly_06_2010/post-3752-1277043976.jpg"]http://basschat.co.uk/uploads/monthly_06_2010/post-3752-1277043976.jpg[/url]

Welcome Liam, give us a shout when you're playing in Salisbury

I've got a couple of these to get rid of. One cheap B&Q job which the work surface butts up to - good for utility rooms etc. Another more expensive Screwfix one which sits in the work surface. Will both need collecting from Salisbury, PM if you want more details.

I'll have them if they are still available

[quote name='Gust0o' timestamp='1333449119' post='1601729'] Didn't Clarky have a black Spoiler? I remember yours being a natural finish - it felt a decent player, very solid. Little heavier than I was expecting. I'd still like one, to complete my Jason Newstead impression [/quote] He had both, the maple one was mine for a while

I used to work for Rob Heaton's brother Mike. I figured talent might be the deal breaker rather than nepotism on this one though.

[quote name='Clarky' timestamp='1333352015' post='1600250'] I wish I still had a Spoiler [/quote] I had it after Clarky and I wish I still had it

First gig back after my eye op. Nice and easy reintroduction with an 8 o'clock start. Definitely more nervous than usual, I had a touch of fat finger in the opener and slightly disturbing wonky vision moment at the end of set. All went ok though and the venue filled up nicely for the top of the bill bands.

Eight o'clock kick off for us. Roll up, roll up see the one-eyed bass player

At least three off the top of my head. I've seen Crikey in Tyrannosaurus Alan a couple of times and mighty good they were to. A few years back I saw Farmer61 with one of his covers bands and was very impressed with his playing and his orange Jazz. I was also on the same bill as OldSlapper at the Chapel in Salisbury when he was with the Hollywood Killlers who were also excellent. [i](If you've played the Winchester Gate or The Old Ale House in Salisbury in the last few years then I've probably seen you as well)[/i]

We'll be on first, so you'll need to be there early to enjoy the Intercepteurs experience. A trip to the bar before we start will also pay dividends.

[quote name='henry norton' timestamp='1332162828' post='1584040'] Mike Lull and Thunderbucker Ranch do fairly accurate chrome T.Bird replicas. They're still quite pricey (especially Mike's stuff) but nothing like what you'd pay for an original set. Fly guitars [url="http://www.flyguitars.com/"]http://www.flyguitars.com/[/url] is a good resource for comparing/contrasting Gibson bass hardware and features. [/quote] Thanks for the info, the Thunderbucker Ranch set [url="http://www.thunderbuckerranch.com/index.html"]http://www.thunderbuckerranch.com/index.html[/url] might be the long term answer to this. In the short term I might look at some kind of artistic bodge - cheap plastic chinese humbuckers sprayed gold or some other kind of terrible DIY affair
