Two gigs yesterday; 45 minute set at a festival in the afternoon, and a proper 2-setter at a party in the evening. The supplied backline at the festival served to remind me why I really don't get on with Ashdown amps... couldn't get a sound I liked no matter how I tried. When I fired up my Shuttle 6 in the evening, I could have kissed it.

Looking for someone who could make a small run (probably 12 at most) of approx. 6"x1.5" single sided PCBs without costing the earth. Any recommendations? Local to Bristol/Wiltshire would be nice, but not mandatory.

Free shipping world wide. I've used them dozens of times very happily. Not the cheapest, but great quality and no language barriers, hidden costs, etc.

I recently used http://pcbway.com to make some micro usb breakout boards. 20 boards cost $21 inc shipping, as there was a $5 voucher for your first order. Would have been quick, but I missed the Chinese New Year deadline. I'm going to order some more pcbs from them soon as my design has evolved.

Our trombone dude passed away suddenly and unexpectedly on Wednesday. Whole band is stunned and bereft... can't believe we'll never see him again. Such a lovely guy.
RIP Stewy the 'Bone. </3

And so, after 10 years as a covers-only unit, we're reinventing ourselves as an originals band. God help us.

I play in several bands, from tributes, to covers, to originals. There is always room for both, but perhaps less room for the original stuff, sadly.....
Though in fairness, I've played quite a few venues where they either like, want or tolerate original material - and those venues and crowds ARE out there. Trick is, finding them, together with appealing to the masses who want covers..... and winning them over.
A few covers, to get people singing & humming along, and tapping their feet or dancing, is no bad thing and handy to have in your repertoire.
Perhaps what you're really tired of, is the same covers or the same genres of covers? Seek out interesting / different covers and try a few

Ok, which lucky bugger got the Tanglewood Bassmaster Funk on ebay for 97 quid?

You know that thing where you're drilling the neck heel for new fixing screwholes, and the drill bit breaks off in the hole?
That.

Made the mistake earlier of listening to/watching Vulfpeck's "Dean Town" again earlier.
F**k it. I give up.

Confirmed late-notice support slot at the Thekla on Friday... been there several times but never on the stage

Great gig on Saturday night, only tempered by the fact that by the time I got home my favourite kebab emporium was closed. Gutted, I really fancied one of their large chicken/doner combos. Went to bed with a rumbly tumbly and thoughts of what might have been. Cue the nano-violins.
