[quote name='fiatcoupe432' timestamp='1509477073' post='3399306'] great stuff mate [/quote] Hi dude, Many thanks and glad you enjoyed Aid

I can say that this album has been one of the most inspiring bass albums for me this year. Buy it without delay!

Hey Bass community If you are Spotify people give my album a spin and maybe even a follow if you like it! I play a few different electric basses and double bass on the album.

[quote name='Marc S' timestamp='1504600356' post='3365898'] I'll try to get to see the Explosive Light Orchestra if I can BTW, I may well have met your "Jeff Lynn" last year... Someone from an ELO tribute played some solo stuff at an open mic at the Red House in Merthyr He was handing out flyers to promote an ELO gig - was that him, I wonder? Sorry to hear you're leaving Cardiff Ashweb - always sad to see a bass player leave South Wales Especially after I just heard another friendly face from here is soon to depart And yes, you should definitely grow old disgracefully - I'm all for that Hope to meet up at some point aidenthorne - looks like I'm busy on Saturday - but keep me posted re further ELO gigs please [/quote] Sure thing will keep you posted. We tend to do a gig at the red house at Christmas time each year and I think this year is no different although I am having to dep our December gigs due to other tours etc.

I find TAB far harder to read than standard notation. I guess this is because I trained classically so never had TAB.

[quote name='Ashweb' timestamp='1504119887' post='3362857'] Hi Aiden, from a part time Cardiffian; I'm working here ATM and clear off back to the Midlands at the weekend. I'm more the ageing rocker trying to grow old disgracefully and definitely not able to hold my own with the above company just yet - I'm firmly in the improver / intermediate category and try to spend evenings practising or having a lesson with Jon Caulfield, who you may or may not know - he gets around a bit! Very interesting to hear about your diverse range of projects - what's the ELO tribute band called, BTW? [/quote] Heya explosive light orchestra is the name. we are at the globe own Saturday if you like!

My band Duski seems to have been getting some love online today so am sharing our website everywhere. Go take a listen [url="http://duskimusic.co.uk"]www.duskimusic.co.uk[/url] and if you like why not listen to the whole album or even purchase the limited edition CD and support a post rock band trying to be noticed in a huge music world. All the best and let me know what you think. I play Fender P bass, Warwick Thumb and Double bass on the recording. I also wrote all the music.

[quote name='LewisK1975' timestamp='1503500719' post='3358760'] My main gigging covers band is The Coversluts. We used to do The Claude quite regularly but not done it so far this year. Cardiff-wise, I know Rich Boucher who was in FFAF until they retired, and Dan Goode who's in 2tickets2thegunshow. Marc S on here is also a great chap.. Cheers Lewis [/quote] Yeah I know Rich- lovely guy and player. He's got quite a collection of Warwick's too!
