Dave, Agreed and two gig weekends are tough at my age.

Ach you'll be fine. Get the youngsters to do all the hard work. 😂

I do most of the heavy lifts in the Glam band.

You'd be less tired if you used your Hofner bass a bit more.

Bit of a late report but I can do that can't I?

We played (Felis Leo) a gig in Southampton on Sunday afternoon. The band's first gig there and my first there in 11 years! I miss playing Southampton, I have fond memories of many, many venues there 😍😄

 

Ages ago a mate said try Music In The City, a weekend festival in various strange venues around Southampton. We got booked as the last act on in a place called St Michael's Vault. Turns out it's like an old wine cellar/jail/bomb shelter type place in the car park behind the Titanic pub! 

 

We got there early enough to watch a couple of the bands before us, turns out this festival is quite popular and well organised so we had a chilled time enjoying the bands. The sound in the place was terrible though and the volunteers were supplying free earplugs to punters 😂

 

When we got on stage we didn't have the crowd the other bands did but there was a few so we were happy. Those that weren't fam n friends actually were there for the duration, unbelievable with the noise we were making!

 

Hopefully we'll get more gigs down that way, I've always enjoyed gigging in Southampton more than Salisbury (sorry Salisbury, you need to embrace your inner rocker self more 🤔).

I wore me converse and the sound guy liked my ibanez sdgr 1205 bass.

An almighty trip to the other end of the country for an Eagles tribute show in Newbury. Beautiful venue, and an appreciative crowd. Nice to bump into BC’s very own @alant!

Actually there is still quite a bit left beyond Newbury.  Typical northerner 😄

I’m going to invoke the law of diminishing returns 🤣
