Highfox Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 As the title says summer is here in Finland and I like nothing more than going through a few lines practicing sitting outside. Thought I'd post a pic of how I do it (another hobby of mine is photography) Pandora PX5 and an ipod touch make the job easy. (That's the P-bass I bought off Lozz here on Basschat, strung it with La Bella flats and it's been sweet) Summer Rocks! Hope the sunshines soon for you guys in the UK [attachment=81902:Practice_Zone_1.jpg] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary mac Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Yes it's lovely when summer arrives, although it seems to have departed these shores today. Make the most of it over there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were crammed on the pavement under two gazebo things, trying to keep power leads and gear out of the rain. I ended up doing a Bill Wyman impression, with bass vertical, trying not to spear guitarist or singer with the headstock. The crowd were really enthusiastic, although they ended up huddled under other canopies and umbrellas Yeah, I know, we needed the rain - but not right then OK?

Our singer was one of the organisers so it was a 'home' crowd. They liked us. They liked the music. They were sober and friendly. Compared to some of the pub gigs we do it was great fun.

ZMech Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Looking forwards to my summer starting, just six days till my last exam I'm quite glad it hasn't been overly sunny yet, revision's bad enough without the knowledge that some of your friends are sitting with a few beers in the park.
