Another Yankee Bassist makes the swim.

As a long time American Anglophile I’m thrilled to take this opportunity to swim over since Talkbass literally went down in flames.

Good evening, Alister , and ...

Plenty to read and amuse you here, and lots to learn and share.

Here, take this dry towel; you must be exhausted. A cup of tea, maybe..?

Welcome to the land of luke warm tea, drizzle, and mild sarcasm. What about this weather we are having eh?

[Richard R 1,570]

Welcome aboard! 

Can you clamber over to the other side of the side for a moment? We're listing to port and I can see other refugees we need to drag out of the water too. 😉

Hiya Brigadier

All refugees welcome here. Let me rephrase that, all are welcome here, even ex-guitarists like me. Hold on, have I mentioned that here previously 😳? Grabs tin hat just in case.

 Basschat was once closed down by the FBI. I love telling people that  

Actually, it was a previous incarnation of Basschat (Bassworld) and it was the servers it was on that the Feds were after, as they were being used for dodgy content from elsewhere.

Anyhow, welcome!

Yes, I seem to remember hearing something about that from the chaps at UNIT.  😉

well I’m glad you all are still here and able to accommodate some bassists from the colonies.  😬

Welcome @BrigadierBass!  I didn't realize until this morning when trying to access something on Talkbass that their site went down... crazy what happened!

Stick ya gear in the boot...

That doesnt mean 'hide ya Marj in ya shoe'...

Ah yes.... it seems my boots are loaded with 112 cabs, mic stands and a backup bass amp.  
Check!
