I would have a TD650 again, tomorrow if one turned up. I changed mine for a Little Mark II for the added portability, but I'd rather carry the extra weight to have the sound of a TD650. I hd a Fafner also, but I thought the TD650 was a bit more versatile, Fafner is nice though T

Got told that there is a Rloand demo model in PMT in Salford, not set up yet though Did anyone mention the addition of midi! Pitch to Voltage convertor now included!! T

Thats it, Waterstone, I'll dig some shots out later if I get time ... and not forgetting one of those 6 string things on Thats entertainment! T

Jazz though; now, that's a bass I've never seen him playing.[/quote] He does use another bass on tour, I forgot which tracks, possibly Start, can't remember the bass though, I have pictures somewhere, I need to dig them out as I'm sure the maker of this bass wanted some! Someone may know what it is? I'll e-mail the guys and ask today I had a good listen to the new DVD at weekend, once I'd stopped staring at the booklet that contains my photo's! It's well worth checking out, the guys are really on top form. A bit of additional info, if any of you have seen Bernie Goodfellow at any shows recently, he has a guy with him with longish black hair, that's Bruces tech! T

Bruce in action..... This is the shot Bruce signed for me and Ali with SLF

I only saw SLF once with Bruce, that was in '96 when the Sex Pistols played Finsbury park, probably one of the best gigs I've ever been too! Seen SLF a few times recently, great band, good to see Ali back with the guys. I grew up listening to SLF, The Jam and a whole load of punk / new wave bands, SLF were probably one of my favourites, so you can imagine how cool it was to be invited to photograph the band and, at the last gig I went to, meet the band and take some promo shots for next years tour! Bruce signed one of my photos last year, it now takes pride of place on the wall in my music room, I get to shoot a lot of bands, but don't do the signing photo thing very often! Tony

Also, we are after someone to do some photographs during our set. PM me if interested. Cheers, Jamie.[/quote] Unfortunately that will be one of the gigs I wont be at, probably Liverpool, Leeds, Birmungham and Hammersmith! Tony

My Fender Tele bass i bought around 1980 was from the bass player from the SAlford Jets, if you're over 40 and live in Manchester you may remeber them or their loud mouthed singer, Mr Sweeny I bought an EBS head off Frankie Felix who gets around a bit and my Sei 5 string was made for Payl Turner I played John Entwistles C bass after it was bought at auction! Tony

I just got a copy of the new FTJ DVD, a First Class Return. Well worth a listen, I got to see the band on a good few dates last year and as a result, the booklet accompanying the new DVD is full of my photos (not all mine, but a good selection are) Photos aside, I enjoyed every gig I went to and will be around at a few of this years dates, not sure which yet, at least 3, maybe 4 The DVD is well worth a punt though! ... check out the photos too ;-) Tony

Hi I photographed the Paul Gilbert (ex Mr Big etc etc) gig in Manchester last night, great bass player, Craig Martini, anyone ever heard of him before? He was on it with Mr Gilbert, playing insane runs note for note with the ex Mr Big guy! This sort of gig ain't normally my bag, but enjoyed it, probably due to some great bass playing, plus, PG is a thenominal guitarist! Tony

I put this in the wrong section T

Will try and get a few high (ish) res shots on here, feel free to use these as you wish! The light had a touch too much red/orange in it all day, I guess it emits a feeling of warmth? a bit of variation would have been nice, maybe some blue! First up, TM, with a little dread blur!

It's 11:05 and I'm still say drinking coffee at home, better go get on a bus! T

I'll be there, spoke to stevie today and will be photographing the day, shots should appear on here within a few hours depending on what time I get home Bald head, big bag of cameras and probably a blue t-shirt that says RACE CREW on the back (cos I got a few of them) I'll try and dig out some previous bass day shots tonight, but I got a magazine deadline that I'm working too tomorrow, so may not happen T

Nice Joe, pleased for ya mate! I'm lovin my Sei 5, but I'm getting the Nordy itch! T
