Yeah I stand on the snare side, this is also next to the guitarist - the stupid keyboard player takes up all of the other side! but it does mean I have a good view of everybody as 'band dad' as we call it. But I tend to creep into the middle in front of the kick drum as I often dance with the singers when they're not singing, and it means I'm less likely to hit the guitarist in the head with my head!

This Topic seems to have had a bit of a revival! [quote name='The Dark Lord' timestamp='1340973503' post='1712269'] No one ever misses a slice from a cut loaf. Cool website though. [/quote] Thanks [quote name='KevB' timestamp='1340976608' post='1712329'] 'Funky music for the soul' Then I look down the 'favourite songs' list and I see that perennial soul classic that is... All Right Now Seriously, it looks a good layout on the whole. I don't know if it has been changed since some of the original comments came out but when I looked the musicians order now has singers at the top which is as it should be. For the time being the way that the focus can be shifted on to the twins in the photos is just re order how those band shots come around so that the one of the girls always comes up first. They are a big selling point really. [/quote] Yeah it has had a bit of a redesign since then, we're also thinking of having a complete overhaul to add some video and live shots too. You're right they're not all funk and soul, but somehow when we play them they are we also play Foo Fighters Times Like These which is really fun to do in between some wedding classics! [quote name='Wooks79' timestamp='1340981407' post='1712418'] Really nice looking website, and fits the purpose well... Interestingly I ended up also clicking on another bands website today, and the content of the FAQ seems almost identical! Coincedence? [url="http://www.phonicseason.co.uk/#/faq/4558313339"]http://www.phonicsea.../faq/4558313339[/url] You decide lol. [/quote] Interestingly enough I was going to mention this to Jake next time I see him At least I had the decency to steal bits from several websites! Thanks for the comments guys, if anybody wants a website designing PM me and I'll send you our guys details. Thanks Pete

The thing I always wonder about is 2nd hand gear. All of my basses are 2nd hand and so is my amp, the only thing I've bought new is my cab and leads and pedals. I always wonder how you prove you owned the stuff to insurance companies if you don't have a receipt?

[quote name='TRBboy' timestamp='1340743627' post='1709120'] It seems to do the job pretty well! I'm surprised how well it copes with being right up close to the PA speakers! [/quote] Yeah it does a great job, it's really useful for rehearsals too. Once we've got a new song to where we need it to be we record it, then practice at home to the recording and gig the song at the next gig.

Hi, we use a Q3 to record rehearsals and gigs. It's easy to use and you could get a small tripod to hold it steady. To give you an idea these videos were recorded with it: http://youtu.be/jrKSa1ntSBA http://youtu.be/WFJNAY_YWoI So I think it would do the job nicely. The other option is an interface and webcam, you'd then have to sync the audio and video.

[quote name='Geek99' timestamp='1337774186' post='1665179'] that sounds cool - I'd like to be playing bass for that one. [/quote] Yeah it was a great gig. no seats in the room where we played either so everybody had to dance!
