Fantastic

Hilarious Neil, we should know better lol, but i love it, Music, Booze & Pizza in that order, class nights

Paul just had a good stroke of luck, Mels brother is the bass player for local band Hogwash i have just spoken to him and he is coming round this week to give me my first lesson )))))

Great pics, good luck with the lessons Neil

How's it going Neil? Had any lessons? Been practicing myself quite a bit and breaking a few strings in the process!

By the time Paul gets back we will be like Jack Bruce and Eric Clapton (lol)

Hi Mick
The lesson was really good Mick,Mark got me onto the chordes and some basic bass runs we also done some work on the keys of the song which was interesting to me as i know feck all about that stuff lol. It has given me an insight into guitar/bass playing it's going to take a while but i will get there lol.
I have some good news Mick
Just downloaded Bitlord torrentsite and within 10 mins i had a copy of Johnny Cash live at Folsome Prison (full album) i have burned the cd and i'm listening to it now, i will make you and Pau a copy over the weekend.
Mick leave me a album that you would like and i will see if ican get it for you.

That great Neil well done!

Good news on the album, I look foward to that

Hey Mick this site is pretty good i've just got a double J.C album and the Bad Co anthology album 30 odd racks i will burn both tomorrow and let you know how they sound

When are you going to let us hear what you sound like?

Hi Jim,

Good to hear from you. Not sure about hearing us Jim as it is like nothing you have ever heard before! ha ha

Neil, does that torrensite do bootlegs? If so I am after Brussels affair (or Nasty Music) and Handsome Girls. Both by the Stones, one with Mick Taylor and the other with Ron Wood. They are both brilliant, it is an absolute crime that they have never been released officially.

Mick, have you seen this site?

Wow! Thanks Jim

Hi guys when are we fixed for the next one ? Neil so glad you are taking a few lessons, i think it will really bring your enjoyment of playing on.
Thats a great list we have put together, I have not spoken with Alistair to see how he is getting on. Itsa lot to get through.
Jim I agree with Mick watching us is like nothing else you have heard and i dont mean that in a good sense ha. I go mostly for the beer wine & take away Pizza, its like a lads night out in so to speak but its great fun.
I akin it to golf, very occasionally once or twice in a round you hit a couple of good shots, likewise once or twice we hit the right notes in the right place.
On another note i have just about finished the DVD from our trip so we will get together to show you and Steve, neil any update for the cover for the Dio so we could take that ??

Hi Paul,

hope you had a good hol, not been doing too much practice the last few days, we lost a good friend of hours due to that blasted big C. Heather and I have been wrapped in in that for a while. Makes you realise how fragile life is and how we should get on and enjoy ourselves! Anyway, back on the bike now, so raring to go for the next session. I am off to Scotland next Saturday for a week, so can do something either before or after that?

I know what you mean Mick, we went to a friends sons funeral just before hols, he was 18 & died unexpectedly, tragic & the funeral was so sad. Yes we need to make the most of our time, sod it lets book one ASAP to have a thrash, you are more than welcome to stay at mine, how about Friday ???? Neil ?????

Yes, Paul, life is such a bitch sometimes. I can do either Friday or Saturday.....really feel like a thrash to cheer me up.

I'll see whats available .......................Neil ?

Count me in guys

Room booked Friday anytime after 6, usual place, i think Alistair is available,

Fantastic Paul. I will get there between 6.30 and 7.00. Of the new tracks I can do whiskey in the jar and tequila sunrise. Have not had a chance to look at hotel California yet. I will print off the johnny cash chords tonight. Can you put them on an iPod playlist? No worries about staying over thanks, as I don't mind not drinking. Really looking forward to it!

Guys i think i will use this session just to muck about on the bass and try to get the hang of a few things. I will be having another lesson next week from Mark so hopefully things might start to improve soon lol. Paul am i ok for the lift over ?, right gotta go play for a bit.

Yes Neil, the usual time 6. yes Neil just have a muck around & feel for the notes when you can, after all its just a bit of fun i dont think we should give up the day jobs..

I am excited as an excited thing can be!

lmao Mick
