Well, it was a small but select gathering yesterday. Really enjoyed meeting all four of you! Let's look on it as a trial run for a bigger event in the spring.

TRBboy Posted December 1, 2011 Author Share Posted December 1, 2011 Was great to meet everyone, sorry I wasn't very chatty, I didn't feel 100%. It would have been good to have more there, but hopefully next time there will be! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never tried markbass before but it sounded so smooth, I thought they would be more 'hi-fi' - i guess they could be but i liked the thicker sound you got out of it See ya there next time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst were complementing each other, your guitar playing was pretty smokey! Haven't played in 20 years my arse....... I'm amazed I just about managed to hold it together on the drums for a whole song! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Savage Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 I'm looking at potentially doing a bash for MusicRadar forumites in the same place sometime in the new year, would probably be cool for any BC Brummies to pop in for a drink and a jam too.
