  1. This is our band's philosophy. 

     

    We dont play out of the county we all live in.  We dont haul our own gear and band PA up any stairs.

    We dont do weddings. We dont do pay to play.

    We dont play for less than £250 for our 5 piece.   Unless it's a Green King pub,  ( our agent deals with those monkeys ),  we get paid on the night. End of.

     

    We're happy to play a gig per month, because that's what we want.  On a rare occasion, like 2 weeks ago, we had back to back gigs on a Friday and Saturday.  But it's rare, and that's ok, but we dont make a point in doing  such double gigs.

     

    We're not bothered if if we get a small crowd, because our fee is still the same.  No one can really predict such things anyways.  It happens. We still get paid.

     

    Our agent has had great feedback from venues, and we get repeat bookings. Our diary is ok upto April 2024.

    We stick to what we want.  That's it in a nutshell. We wont be hassled into this or that. 

     

    Thing is, we have fun, first and foremost. No one gets rich playing in a pub / covers band, so gigging is for fun only, but with some small reward.

    If we get a sniff that some venue would be a disaster, we say NO. Period.

     

    Our band is made up of 5 non egotisical blokes, who all get on. Even rehearsals are a laugh.  That's rare in itself .

     

    Life is good :)

  2. Cort B4 FL MHPZ  4 string fretless, in great condition.  I have 3 fretless basses right now, and dont actually use any of them in my current band, so it's time to thin the herd.  They seem to range from £650-£700.

     

    I will include a decent case.  Postage free to UK mainland.

  3. Gary just scored my Genz amp, and it was a no fuss transaction. Just how things should be.  A far cry from the tyre kicker member that said he'd buy it, then told me a pack of lies.

     

    Cheers hombre - have fun Friday  :)
