I met Becky Baldwin!

[DawnPatroller]

She is currently with Fury, who supported Metallica Unloaded tribute at Torquay Arena tonight. I only caught the end of the Fury set.

But I told her she's brilliant and that I play bass too. Yay!

Gigged with Fury several times about 10 years back, but that was before Becky's time. Great band. Even had to share sleeping space upstairs from a pub in Coleford with them!

 

Becky's a good player and a great bass ambassador, and she's brought them some valuable additional publicity.

Their drummer was on double duty and depped for the Metallica tribute after the Fury set!

Becky is a lovely person, engaging, very chatty and a delight to be in the company of. I know Becky deps with said Metallica tribute when they need a bassist too and stayed over for random vegan breakfast à chez Dood when they played this way a while back. Definitely works very hard managing/publicising Fury and playing in with Mercyful Fate. Great work ethic and "can do" attitude. What was it Nathan East said? "Attitude + Aptitude = Altitude"

Cheers. I saw her again later on at the merch stand while I was on my way to the ladies 😄

[SteveXFR]

Surely she's a bit too good to be supporting tribute acts.

[FretsOnFire]

Was she not recently with Mercyful Fate?

I like what she has done to the Ric headstock logo on the image for her youtube channel. Rickenbecky!

[Stub Mandrel]

Saw Fury... possibly supporting Phil Campbell? They were good.

He retired and lives in the UK now, so not likely.

She was indeed, and she is their current bassist.

 

I've known Becky for many years, in fact she actually depped for me waaaay back in the dim distant. Since then I've watched her career rocket off through the roof, and it's all down to her hard work and determination. She's a great example to us all, regardless of gender.

Nope, the TRCs on her Rickies (and they're real ones) really do say Rickenbecky.
