I can be a very good goalkeeper when I want to (my mates can confirm) but I'm not a lesbian I repeat I am not a lesbian!! ![]()
PS - I hijacked this thread and I'm very sorry! :(
???? Is your heterosexuality some sort of reason for not wanting to get covered in cable smeg and be yelled at by an insane irishman?
PS....please tell me the apology for threadjacking wasn't to me.....I'm on interpol's most wanted list for threadjacking.
NObabe wrote: What is cable smeg?
it's that horrid filth that cables inexpilcable get coated in at gigs., part floor dust, part beer, part gaffer tape glue, part fuck knows what.
Thanks for clearing that up for me. :)
I see you guys are being serious about this nool day thingy and I really appreciate your effort honestly. :)
As for hijacking I was actually referring to the threadstarter, just having a pick on him tonight, that's all.

Maya or me?
I'm bloody confused now
you! I may not be a chauvinist, but I'm not about to send a lady to her death....errr I mean to errr do such a manly task.
5 mins up anything labblled "ladder" and living in an entertainment venue, with a large load, and you'll think you were in Nam. I once asked a guy, while swaying close to death with a lighting bar held above my head..."is there not like a safe ladder or something round here"...he LET GO of the thing so he could fall on the ground in a paroxysm of the greatest mirth, and simply said "in a theatre? fuck off!".
6 months later the POS sent me up a 40ft aluminium scaff tower with a fuckin huge speaker and I damnde near froze I was so terrified.
I was just going to post the same thing. Calling me a fucker!!?? What a cunt!! Oops sorry wrong thread

you even thought that I meant you, after me offering you a position as road filth.
ooooooooh you are SO off the Christmas card list! :D
my last Foray into gig lighting was at an NO gig, Spectrum Arena '86
I was smashed and decided to unbolt a bit of lighting scaffold as a souvenir. Quick thinking mates dragged my away before big security man bolted me to the floor.
Anyway, the 'knobhead' I was referring to was me, not you.
But you are welcome to be a knobhead too ![]()

i knew it was just you (or the voices) calling you(or the voices) a knobhead, i was retalliating on Maya's behalf, very many of you are extremely ungentlemanly towards her, and it's really not cricket...... of course....... I'VE never met her, and you lot HAVE, mayhaps there is some corelation
:D

ahh you aint cauht up with the bollox thread......
i've decided you and I are going to drink heavily the minute i depart the sound desk :) Just smile and nod and make sure the Tazer is charged.
My running order..... arrive early, just to be a cunt to people who show up on time.
Scream at musicians for about 20 mins until someone gets me stoned. Scream at musicians in an infinitely more amiable way for a few hours. Mix some bands while using Missy Jem as a device to turn champagne into amusement (of a strictly CLOTHED nature you pervs) Find you, drink something dangerous.
here....how's this for a nightmare....
Jack's old fella weighs in and starts getting his own back.....can you see it....Hooky down the front shouting "you're fucking shite you cunts!!!!" and hurling bottles :D

same 'ere mate.
REWIND......
Jack if you mean my babblings, don't worry about it, no one does.
if you mean all the technospiel.... {I adopt my best wilson voice for this} you're a musician, you're not meant to understand these things, you just turn up and play your bass and leave all the clever stuff to the geeks :D
EDIT: could be worse, you could be a drummer, Steve M. got the entire human allocation of drummer brains, hence...well...the rest of them.
Or maybe I'm really REALLY out of date and people are thinking 9man no one uses a desk anymore, it's all doen with neural interfaces)
since yer here.....
What line up is your band? Standard fair 4 piece job, or anything we need to know about up front?
Read, Learn and inwardly digest
^^ awsesome stuff, I'm into week 3 and have laughed my bollox off, learned a thing or 2 (never been NEAR a big label session in my life) and recognised sevberal characters too. I believe it was Gnu Order who posted it originally, and it's the main reason i've not had him shot for his matchmaking efforts ;)
It will not only explain all sorts of complex things about the annoyances of making music "professionally", but entertain you as well.

"There will be no charge for the use of Jabez, though they will need to cover costs (not including bar staff as they take the bar takings). The items they would need to charge for would be PA hire (though we could probably sort something as there is a band night in there the night after), and Door staff if you required a late bar, though again I could try and do a deal if you can guarantee numbers (and you can if you are selling tickets in advance). They already have a stage so that would be thrown in, as long as it is big enough. Also if you are going to get a few people coming I could try and get some bar promotions."
will forward the managers contact details when I get them
Is it 'Freehouse', Managed or a Tenancy? Last 2 cases, get on to the Brewery when some firmer plans have been made and just badger them - like mad! They always give in with the hint of a local radio mention - even hear little sponsorship bells ringing here......if it's a freehouse, you're just gonna have to bribe the 'Landlord'....... or something very similar.

It's also very difficult to play bass or guitar with your hands covered in smeg. Cable or otherwise... (oh the mammaries sorry, memories of the ladies' toilets in so many dodgy venues in the 80's)
I'm happy to help out with the day any way I can - I've done door security, theatre lighting and some studio and live engineering. Doubt anyone will get me up on stage with a bass again though, unless of course, I'm very drunk... Happy to help out with press releases (if any) or other publicity too.
