Dear heavens no, I'm still wincing about the awful 'solo'. A fine lesson in actually being prepared, that ...

That was ace man! One of the punters collared me after and said we had him down perfectly.

He was barely able to stand though...

He wasn’t the only one!

Was that the dude who claimed to be a drummer! He could hardly speak, he was well hammered!

He asked for a go on the drums and we said

”oh, sorry.. no sticks”

Ten mins later he was seen going round the club asking if anyone had drum sticks

That's the one! Had a very keen ear obviously. Said my vocals on Power of Love were one of a kind... but that's only coz he couldn't pronounce "fucking awful"

Snags · August 2018

Yeah. I think I'm going to be trusting my self-assessment on this one.

Do you happen to have one of Comfortably Numb? Such an epic song!!

Aye. There's two versions of this, this is the first one we did, in the studio.

@Bridgehouse, @Alnico @Snags @mrkb ;

Wow.

That was an experience watching that video.
There's a lot I can take away from it although I'll agree, it's not a bad attempt for the first time above home volume and in a band since 2015.

I've clearly got the strap too long and the guitar too low. I hadn't practiced standing up so that caught me out.
My guitar sounds like it wasn't quite in tune. I need a much better tuner.
My string bending is flat. Need to practice that at volume, not quietly or acoustically.
I need to "Chunk" that 2nd solo up into pieces I can remember properly and remember how it fits together. I lost track of it halfway through and just tried to wing it in Bm. Although that's always possible, I would have liked to have followed the actual song a bit more closely there.
I chose to only play the solos on the day and it sounds ok but probably could have sounded better if I'd switched to a clean patch and just quietly backed Martin up with some chords or triads or whatever.

But all that said it wasn't the car crash I'd remembered and I'm pleased I tried.
It'll be better and tighter next time.

Massive thank you to those in the room with me for giving me the chance to attempt that song live. It was a huge rush and if we can try it again next time, I'd love that.

Wow.

I thought it was great - well played! Everyone!

I thought they sounded good, your enjoyment of the song was really coming through.

Considering how you put it together on the day, the gig setlist was a great balance of tastes.

vasselmeyer · August 2018

That "Power of Love" at the gig was the first time we'd ever actually played that! What with @Legionreturns being one handed, @sticker filled in on bass and we played as a trio. Good fun all round.

I enjoyed it immensely! Great fun even if it completely wrecked my throat for the rest of the weekend haha

I wonder if @Legionreturns has any other guilty pleasures he wants us to do?

Snags · August 2018

Didn't you two work that out between you on the Saturday night?

vasselmeyer · August 2018

Chords and a bit of a busk without a drummer at Sasquatch and then straight in at the gig.

What goes on in the middle of the night at Sasquatch stays at the middle of the night at Sasquatch

I stayed well away in a different studio.

I pity anyone that played the drum kit in the main studio on Sunday tho!

Until there’s a deep clean anyway

Snags · August 2018

@vasselmeyer schoolboy error, there, assuming I was talking seriously about music, as opposed to imply smut between @Bridgehouse and @Legionreturns

@Snags I assumed that manlove was taken as read and seeing this is a serious music forum, just stayed onttopic

As it happens, @CustomPedalBoards was the most amorous. What he lacked in Tom Jones smooth he more than made up for in enthusiasticam.

Just had an email from the club:

Hi there

Outlane Bowling Club Huddersfield hosted an event on 4 August which was organised by Chris Burl and the FB Jammers.

We just wanted to let you know what a fantastic night it was, everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves, the music the ‘FB Jammers’ provided was brilliant, the atmosphere was electric and we cannot wait to see you all again next year. Here’s a few photos one of our members took.

The Club would also like thank to Chris for organising the event and choosing Outlane Bowling Club to host it.

Thanks again guys and we look forward to seeing you on 16 February 2019.

regards
Lorraine Cass
Secretary
Outlane Bowling Club

Bridgehouse · August 2018

Great message @Legionreturns ;

Alnico · August 2018

Brilliant.

What a great bunch of people.

darthed1981 · August 2018

Great stuff, they were a bluddy good audience as well!

mrkb · August 2018

@modellista - have you posted all the gig vids now, or is there any more likely over the next few weeks? Seeing these has been great, and I appreciate the effort you have put in filming and editing them!

Modellista · August 2018

More on the way when I've got the time... some crackers as well!

Howdy, Stranger!
