My band has decided to do a covers set in order to play some different venues and to different people than we do with our originals. Including a few early Maiden tunes, and I thought I'd try playing with fingers instead of a pick in order to make it a bit more authentic. I can hardly get through half a song without my forearm pretty much giving up. Can't imagine how much practise you'd have to do in order to get the stamina to play a full set like that.

Teamrock had an advert free radio station on DAB for two years, which must have cost the a fortune. Then they moved that to online and tried getting paid subscriptions for radio and content access to run alongside the print magazines – obviously didn’t work and has resulted in the magazines being taken down as the rest of the business failed.[/color][/size][/font] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"]You’d think if the magazines do have a readership that someone might come in and purchase the titles and ensure they stay on the shelves.[/color][/size][/font] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"]There is quite a good article on it here.[/color][/size][/font] [url="https://www.themediabriefing.com/article/team-rock-closure"][font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#0000ff"]https://www.themediabriefing.com/article/team-rock-closure[/color][/size][/font][/url] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"]And an interview with an ex editor of Classic Rock[/color][/size][/font] [url="http://www.pressgazette.co.uk/the-inside-story-of-team-rocks-sudden-closure-my-boss-phoned-and-said-its-all-fd/"][font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#0000ff"]http://www.pressgazette.co.uk/the-inside-story-of-team-rocks-sudden-closure-my-boss-phoned-and-said-its-all-fd/[/color][/size][/font][/url]

Bit late to the party, but enjoying reading the diary from the beginning.

Scottish hard rock / metal band, Vantage Point, are currently recording their fourth album, Work Work Work. Here is a video of Bassist, Murray Graham, recording the track, @ Attack. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BezokRZgwnk There is also a video with the guitars added, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlMzQUrZsAo but they do get in the way of the bassline somewhat 😉 Vocals yet to be recorded.
