Field Fulla Hillbillies - Hillbilly Vegas

Please Don’t Touch - Mötorhead

I’m a regular traveller on the A9 from Pitlochry to Dundee, Perth, etc and back, I find that the speed limit thing is when cruise control comes into its own (plenty of folk go screaming past me though, perhaps they don’t know,the definition of average?). The main annoyance on the A9 for me, is the 50mph limit for 7.5 tonnes and above, it’s not the vehicles that should be observing this limit, it’s the cars that think it applies to them too.

You Can Leave Your Hat On - Joe Cocker

I got it, it was just the first thing that popped into my head after appreciating the reference.

Jim Dandy - Black Oak Arkansas

Surely that should be a monochromatic tuner?

That’s rather nice. Not a T’Bird by any stretch, but maybe a double humbucker one would get you close in the tone department.

😆👏👏👏

Maruszczyk do a similar thing with the Jake, but not for less than £750. https://www.public-peace.de/info/jake-tb.html

Too Old To Rock & Roll, Too Young To Die - Jethro Tull

Yes, as soon as they do anything different, folk recoil in horror. The Dimension bass seemed like a good, new design, without being too radical (unlike the Meteora) but it was mostly studiously ignored.

Roxanne - The Police

Get the flaming torches, pitchforks, tar and feathers ready... they really have improved the Jaguar GUITAR!

I would have thought that the Epiphone Embassy would get you right in the ballpark for tone, playability and cost.

Sister Seagull - BeBop Deluxe

Been there, heard that.* Wireless rather IEM problems.

The attention to note length is most impressive, as is the bass face.

You’re trying to do your best and entertain, but I could feel the enthusiasm draining from body. As we weren’t our normal compliment and line up, we couldn’t even view it as a paid rehearsal. The band leader is back there today to pick up some PA he had to leave behind, I wonder if he’ll get any feedback? If it’s, “You guys were great, really looking forward to having you back,” I’m going to spit! There was one upside, the load in was as easy as pie, parked opposite the side door, next to the stage, in, out, nay bother. However the stage was quite raised, with no stairs and all of us struggled to get on and off a couple of times .

Red - Sammy Hagar

Played a new venue for us. Sadly, we were without our keyboard and had a dep drummer (he did a fine job and was a nice chap too). It was a club and the president’s 50th birthday bash. A full house and an up for it crowd was promised - neither were in evidence. I honestly think they’d rather have played bingo all night (there were 2 sessions) and watched the England game, even though the gig was in Dundee (plenty were watching on their phones). Immediate, “You’re too loud,” without saying what was too loud, followed by 2 more (we weren’t, honest, they probably couldn’t hear themselves chat [mumble], thus too loud). There was a very small flurry of jigging around near the end and the occasional smattering of applause, but it was mostly crap and not worth the hour’s drive to get there. Home for just past 2. We’re supposedly back there in September, I hope they cancel.

Sgt Rock - XTC
