Audition this coming Thursday - Stevie Wonder, Chic, Luther Vandross in the set. My funk chops are AWOL and I'm going to flunk it big style. 

Another kebab procurement fail in Failsworth. New gig for us so nothing to go on.

Couldn't find any where despite taking a couple of detours down some likely looking main roads.

The day was saved by the 24 hour McDonalds on the east lancs road that usually pulls us out of 

the mire when we're in the kebabless wastelands of Lowton Cheshire.

Went for the big tasty meal and it was indeed big, and it was indeed tasty.

This kind of apocalyptic post gig hunt  is getting worryingly regular.

It's back. The donner calzone. What a beast of a feast.

Have to say this may be my favorite apres gig snackette but you can't get it everywhere.

NBD!  Actually thanks to Utterly Pathetic Service (UPS) and Interparcel who can't deliver on time, delivery will now be next week. But I have been waiting for six years to find a Hohner B Bass 5.  Only saw two for sale in all that time and both for sale abroad and expensive.  Just bought one in Bicester for under 200 notes. So another week isn't much.  See how tolerant I am?  Me nice.

I seem to have GAS for a Nord Stage 2, I've nowhere to put it, I can't play keyboards and I don't have that kind of money going spare WHAT THE HELL!

Never let anyone dictate which bass or amp you should be using - they have NO idea.

About to start PB-50 surgery. Sorry to be doing it as this arrived from Thomann witha lovely set up.

Blizzard fueled dash from the kebabless wasteland of Lowton 2 miles up the road in that there Cheshire to a hearty kebab from a stalwart of the guide, Mediterranean Pizza in the centre of the known universe. Great gig at a regular haunt too but felt a bit lacklustre after last weeks amazing reception of the new show. 

Maybe cos' we're back in our comfort zone and didn't have the edge that something new brings to a band. Oh well, kebab was ace and that's what counts.

I'm having a Pelican Day - wherever I look there's a huge bill in front of me.

Just found DR Fat beams on eBay for £4.70 result! 

Visitors to BC over the years may well have seem me bang on about what I suppose is still a favourite 'tonally coloured' speaker cabinet, the Hartke 4.5XL. I've had about 6 of those 45Kg beasts over the years. Too heavy for my poor back now. Imagine my excitement when I find I can have 600 different IR's of this famous cabinet to play with on Helix and my DAW???!!!!! Could I have 'Dan's 90's Tone' back again??? Watch this space! (My back says thank you)
