    Really good fun and good to get out and socialise a bit post-covid/baby! Thanks to all who put so much effort into organising, and great to finally meet some of you at last as well as seeing some familiar faces. Many thanks again @mrkb for patiently swapping over your frfr speaker time and again; I’ll get mine fixed next time!  :) Now trying to let my fingers recover after trying to keep up with @stratman3142  ….and the bugger can play great slide too!!

    Yes thanks to @Brocco for setting things off and organising things on the day, and @roberty for organising the studio.
    It's not a competition.

    Yes, as the least experienced guitarist, I had the task of following @Vibetronic for my only lead part. 

    I'm sure my guitars don't have as many notes on as those guys find. :dizzy: 
    Don't let your mind post toastee - like a lot of my friends did!

    you did a great job! Especially the 2nd solo on the last time round of Rocking in the Free World - your soloing was really confident and sounded great :)

    I'm still recovering from @roberty's epic bass sound.

    Now I know what it would sound like if you combined JJ Burnel, John Entwistle and Mike Kerr.

    Hopefully the structural integrity of the studio is still OK :)

    It's not a competition.

    Forget of find out who camera it was - are they going to be ok to upload to youtube so we can relive the event? I know its an arse to do (I did that and a recording at a previous jam) - so appreciate the effort involved.

    That was @onlyonebradders - he's got to go through them and edit them down and possibly find the best version of each.  Not sure how he's getting on, or if he's even had a chance to start!

    I'll nudge him at least to find the team photo and the vid of the shred-off, though.   =)

    As a semi-pro photographer, I can appreciate the time taken to get this done.  I'm currently 3 months behind on my photos.

    Our self awareness is weird isn’t it. I was thinking how great your voice was as you understood your range and developed a unique style to work with it, where I feel I’m just a shouter. Lots of singers seem to hate their voice, but there’s nothing that can be done about it apart from learn it’s strengths and limitations and work with them. Just forget it’s you and think are they doing a good performance?

    Yes I didn't notice that it was an entire playlist of songs until you mentioned it and I clicked on the text at the top left of the video. Thanks for doing this @onlyonebradders ;
