  1. Reaper Army in da house! 😀
  2. sold 3 last night, all x Large. If your demographic is older blokes like ours, we pretty much sell only X large and small for their partners. To make it work you need a minimum order run of 50 and keep it strictly black and white. That can get the cost down to about £4 quid a pop. I can recommend Pins and knuckles for great quality at a good price. A card reader is a must. They cost nothing and the commission is very small in comparison to making or not making a sale because punters dont carry cash. Sell them for £15 each, £10 profit per Tee, it soon adds up. we did a day in the studio on the back of T shirt sales alone from the past few months.
  3. I've become quite the fanboi of all things zoom (apart from their video recorders), the B1 Four is a great bit of kit for virtually pennies.
  4. Just get a zoom B1 four used for £40 quid. Try it and if no likey, flog it on for the same here.
  5. Had the B3, sold it, now use a B1 Four as part of my preamp setup (plus a Laney Digbeth). Smaller footprint, TBH didn't notice any difference in sound quality.
  6. Axe and zoom b1 four into the PA if that was me. Punters wouldn’t know the difference
  7. Yeah she is fine thanks. We played a fair few of those dives years ago when we were starting out and desperate for gigs. Thankfully we can be a bit more discerning these days, we wont be back.
  8. Gig last night, rough old dive, bruiser landlord ( nice bloke mind), dodgy clientele etc. p1issed up girl decides to invade the stage several times screeching into the mic. Tops off the evening by jumping on stage and grabbing our singers head and sticking her tongue down our straight female singers throat ( not impressed) and to end a lovely evening, scouser crack head screaming at everyone to f@@k off for 10 minutes straight. Venue loves the band, wants to rebook in October… opinions? Happened really fast, our singers a tough old cookie and pushed her away calling her a dirty b1tch. In an ideal world I guess you would call the fuzz but it was 1am and she just wanted to get home. Dont think we will be returning to this particular Torbay establishment.
  9. I cant believe Ozzy isnt already in it. Edit, he was in 2006 with sabbath, so his solo career then...mmm maybe not..
  10. I think it that scenario Id be using plug in or VST type software for home recording rather than trying to cobble togeather my hardware.
  11. we have been using moving heads for a few years now, they are great but quick tip, put them behind an amp as a backdrop light so they dont blind you or the punters. we also used to have a dmx footswitch but I only used it for blackouts at the end of each song. Once that died we didnt bother to replace it which was a shame IMO Now we just carry a large bag of LED lights and clamps and just attch them around the stage as appropriate with slow colour washes.
  12. I was actually going to suggest giving the Laney pre a go, let us know if it helps.
