Hi everybody I've been reading this topic with much interest. You see, I'm about to start a quite lengthy (5 months) european tour and my employers want me to have health and gear insurance. I'm fairly new to the UK (been here for a couple of years), so I'd need some pointers about what's the most convenient company, etc... Of course, if you have any additional advice for me, it's much appreciated thanks in advance

Hi Beerdragon and thanks for listening here is what I've used: All the pieces have been recorded straight into pro-tools Lurking in the shadows waiting for capt.Kirk The "stick" part is a "deactivated"(without onboard pre amp) Warwick rockbass corvette 5 string with ABM bridge The fretless is a defretted Washburn series 1000 Both the parts (apart from the main theme) are improvised and not edited Melting snow Again the Rockbass. Amazing instrument, the best 5string you can buy for 400£ Friends with snakes Washburn fretless. The harmony in the middle is in three parts, each one played with the Ebow thru a virtual marshall amp on guitar rig 3 Twin peaks theme An Epiphone El capitain acoustic bass. no edits So near and yet so far tobias growler5 with basslines MM alnico pickup and onboard aguilar obp. no edits This is what I used to record I'll add more tunes as soon as I compose them

Hi everybody what happens when you combine some spare time, some bad '80s rock, bread and hummus? SANDWICH TIME! new track on www.myspace.com/trtz. enjoy...

Dream theater's "Lie" or "Caught in a web"

Good luck dude. Remember we normally feel compelled to play waaaaay more than we should. Relax and make your life easier. What works for me is: I have slightly more volume on the amp and I think "small": small hand movements, small playing. This helps me not to overplay and to have a better control on my muscles. Remember to breathe :-)

OH MY GOD now I'll have to wash my eyes with kerosene...

TAAAAASTY! And actually they're playing MUSIC, not some nonsensical tweedly-deedly-dee!

Cheers dudes! I'm having a blast reading thru the forum
