Drums, Guitar and Bass is down and sounding amazing. The shouting starts tomorrow and the noise will be up on the Famous Grey myspace to listen to next week!

This is the new band I play bass for, the tunes are shaping up to be epic!  We are looking to record an demo in the next couple of months and then play some shows and drum up interest. I am really excited about this… Hardcore!!

I bought a Fender MIM Jazz Bass, an Ashdown ABM210 cab and a 4-way footswitch for my amplifier (which almost didn’t fit in my pedal box!)

Here are the images of greatness:

Fender MIM Jazz and the rest of the rig!

My pedal board. It was difficult to fit it all in while keeping it easy to deal with.

All covered up!

All in all some cool stuff! The pedal board was the hardest thing to organise and make work, but I think it’s all turned out good.

Got myself an ‘A’ mug, after a shameless promo from Jason

This is the first time in a while where I’ve gone to a gig and been genuinely impressed with both the support bands. Scholars were on first, I recommend you check out their single Hydrochaesin from the Hundred Reasons: Singles Club #4. There is also a single for Hundred Reasons (Break The Glass) and Canterbury (Set You Right). Both support bands were awesome keyboard tinged pop-punk with some amazing vocals.

Canterbury were on next, they have their debut album Thank You out now and I would highly recommend it. It’s a highly energetic album, if these guys keep it up they will definitely go places. They have a headline tour coming up in the next month, if’ you have the chance, GO!

It was a really entertaining night, Hundred Reasons started up a little slow, but they soon got into the grove and blew me away. All the fan faves were played, like ‘If I Could’ and ‘Silver’. I was a little disappointed they didn’t play anything I noticed from their latest album. They have been together a decade now and still making amazing sound.

Next gig I’m at is ‘A’ in december. I can’t wait!

If you like any of these bands, you should love this!
