It doesn’t have to be in English to be good, does it?
Mykesbass replied to ubit's topic in General Discussion
Saw the fantastic Songhoy Blues in Brighton last night. Was amazed at how many people were singing along! The singer did ask at one point if people knew what they were singing 😀 -

Not a big lyric fan which is possibly why I'm very open to foreign language music. Here's a fave: -
DSL from Australia - looks like Gear 4 Music stock them now.

The Power of Love - Different songs with the same title!

Walk on by - Leroy van Dyke Walk on by - everyone else! I know someone who put the wrong version on a Bacharach & David compilation! -

Bands you just discovered that made you go “Wow!”

Funny how that happens isn't it? Known and loved Little Feat since my teens, but only recently caught up with Allman Brothers. -
Function bands. How not to look like catering staff?

Are you sure about this? All the money they spend on theming and decorating the venue, sparkly dance floors etc, you can hardly turn up in your allotment cords and an old jumper! -
Well that was fun. Great sound on and off stage, band played brilliantly, big audience who loved it. Some really great feedback afterwards. Didn't win the vote to go on the mainstage next year, looks like the rock bands one that every night, but I've never been one for music as a competitive sport! Made some useful allies, and feel like the band have made another step up.

Ah, well if we count those, yes, Kent County Show last year, but for the stand holders after the public had left (and with world cup on TV)! A slight aside, I saw Skunk Anansie at their distributor's conference - cellar bar in a hotel in Bracknell. Was amazing - less than a meter away from Skin for the whole set!

I did it to a Gene once. Spent all day thinking about NOT doing it, as soon as he walked in the door, Hi Gene! Damn!!

Chris, you probably had the pleasure of playing some decent gigs earlier in your career - I'm a late developer

Following on from the end of last year's tour - this Saturday sees the biggest gig of my playing career. Not bad for an old duffer! We'll be on the Introducing Stage at the Great British Rock & Blues Festival in Skegness. Anywhere between 600 and 1,000 proper die-hard music fans there for the likes of 9 Below Zero, FM, Saxon and many others. Good fun this original music lark!

Fantastic Negrito is the first act in a long time that I've listened to on repeat. -
See you there!

Join the queue 😎

Brandon Boone anyone?

I'd be very happy if Oteil steps in for the Palladium show.

Sad news. I also contacted him during a quest for a preamp, and likewise got a prompt, friend reply.

It's the open pore I struggle with - sweaty paws 😩
-
I don't get on with the necks, otherwise I think I would have succumbed ages ago - great quality and value.

I heard a demo of one of these (5 string) - haven't been able to find it again, but it has given me serious gas for the Nordstrand Big Singles - they sound fabulous! Great looking bass to go with the great sounding pickups!
