In my 50's, still doing 40+ gigs per year, I'm just about good enough to play the covers we do convincingly. Thankfully the live track we have just put on our website comes badly mixed under the title "bassist seen and not heard" Frustrations? Would love to do a few gigs with a prog band. Would love to set up a " rock and roll" covers band, everything from Haley through Beatles, T Rex, Quo, Shaky to Paulo Nutini. Excuses? Time and effort, ie not making either available. And I haven't been arsed writing my own stuff for a decade. Who's a miserable old Hector then?

My neck hurts just watching that hair advert!

Absolutely gutted for you. Small consolation but it will be worth the extended wait. Again, small consolation but at least it will have been properly insured. It really does , once again, show that if you are moving stuff about, it MUST be fully insured. Sorry you are going to have to go through this. All the best, Karl.

We are doing a festival later in the year and were asked for a video for their website. So, one snowy night at a gig in Burnley..... (warning, boring old farts, bum notes, predicable song that crowd likes, blah). If you are daft enough to look please switch to 720HD whatever that means [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=XC2COqT6OPs"]http://www.youtube.c...e&v=XC2COqT6OPs[/url]

That don't look like his Irons P, c'mon, spill

That's nothing - I've done gigs with stitched and broken left hand fingers (cue late night cabin scene from Jaws) Could you not persuade the chickens to clean up their own hutch - bone idle feathery bastards - maybe taunt them with pictures of Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall holding a bunch of sage until they start pushing the hoover about.

The whole thing is quite... ...ridiculous.

It was up before and got pulled.

[quote name='icastle' timestamp='1364139805' post='2022351'] Is that out of personal choice or just the conditions of your ASBO? [/quote] I had no access for 4 days

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1364139773' post='2022350'] Oh really? I'll ask mrs karlfer about that next time I see her... [/quote] Tonight she'll be swinging her handbag down the docks. Passable likeness to Baldrick.

Somebody had cake and eaten it Mr. Hall ?
