We were supposed to have a gig at our favorite pup, the Coach House in Paignton last night. A couple of weeks ago we heard it was closing in June and we thought this would be our last gig there. It turned out it closed on the 1st of June. Luckily, we will get some gigs at another pub across town that know us, so all is not lost. We have been playing at the Coach House for 20 years, and I played there in my previous band too. The end of an era for sure.

We were back at The Queens Arms in Brixham on Saturday night. I managed to bag a parking space right outside, which is unheard of. Another good night with an appreciative landlord and crowd. During the break a guy came up to ask me about my rig as he didn't recognise my Ashdown RM 500 evo ii and BF 210 cab, so we had a chat about them. He was actually a guitarist and did recognise my stingray, and was very complimentary on my sound and the balance with our guitarist. 11pm finish luckily, so no too late arriving home.

Use an octaver and play it on your regular bass.

I like the way the advert didn't mention ipads on stands, but since someone mentioned them the thread has been well and truly derailed 😄

Steve, whatever you decide to do, don't give up biking too.

A statue of Lemmy is going to be unveiled in his home town of Stoke-on-Trent later this week. BBC News - Statue of Stoke-on-Trent native Lemmy to be unveiled in Burslem - BBC News https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5ylnyrydl0o

Just got back from a great gig at The Queens Arms in Brixham with a good crowd who were very appreciative. It was an 11pm finish which helps with loosing an hour too. We played well, although there were a few 'moments' but we always get through them. I had my usual rig of Stingray 2eq, RM500 evo ii and BF210. Also, wearing my usual Skechers which are very comfortable. We have recently got a new mixer, as our old started to play up so it was quick replaced, which has worked wonders with our sound. It's well organized with wall mounted speaker brackets and lights, so less gear to bring. We don't bother with the sub here either. As with all the pubs we play at we get a free drink each (JD & Coke for me)and tonight that also included a couple of free lime and sodas which is my gigging drink as I drive. Bit of a break now till the next gig, but we'll work on some new songs.

I've recently been given an old Milestone 3 and am impressed by it.

His lemon may have been magnificent, but it's bitter so not the sweetest thing.

Our first gig of the year last night at the Coach House in Paignton. A good crowd for us who got into it as the night went on. Towards the end of the first set our guitarist was out front soloing and told me after the song that I was not loud enough out front, so I duly boosted my PA level. Chatted to a couple of appreciative people along the way. My calouses felt like they got a work out as it been a couple of months since I've played live. Got a couple more gigs over the next month, but only 11 booked for this year so far. Using my usual Stingray 2eq, RM500 & BF210. I was also wearing my Sketchers.

Does he grow any lemons?

Some sites let you purchase as a guest, without all the hassle of setting up an account, which is fine if you don't anticipate using them them again in a while. Maybe that option will be phased out?

Well, we've had 4 drummers depart too (none of which had died luckily) and one has returned for a second stint.

Sounds great Daryl, especially the beer fridge. Good luck. Lookin forward to hearing all about it.

A couple of good threads about this subject already if you sesrch. Go custom molded is the general consensus.
