The Goldtop may not be joining us... the switch is playing up and I may not have a chance to fix it in time. :-( 

Well, I'm not coming then.




Just kidding. 

Bring the Goldtop with you @impmann and I'll fix it.  Obvs, I won't be able to fix it on the day, so I'll need to bring it away with me, but I'll get it back you real quick.

Ish.

Is there not a code to get into those doors, Mark? I thought there was...

Regarding noise levels - I agree with @Bridgehouse that Leicester was quietish so can we all agree to keep it like that... no cranking amps to get ‘that sound’.

I agree with this with one small proviso.

At some point in the day I'd like to resolve once and for all the "how loud is a Boss Katana 50" question, with enough people (earplugs or not) in the room to give a sensible opinion!

Also, I dont know what anyone wants to do about pics or video but i do have a camera in my car, so we could do some videos of performances if anyone wants any?

I'm trying not to think of it as a "performance"
Although having a recording, whether audio-only or video, would be useful.

I’ll be recording it all with a zoom H4N - it will help me to listen back and see where I need to improve. If we can keep log of what was played when and by who, I could chop up the recording and distribute if needed, but it won’t be available straight away as I’m having a rest from Jam organising after Sunday!

Well deserved no doubt!

I'll bring the camera can get some "action shots" if nothing else!

I'll be ready from 11am.
Just whatsapp or give me a call when you're outside.
I've got 3 guitar cases and a GT100 in a case, that's it, nothing studip. ( )

No worries should be plenty of room for those @Alnico ;

Ive created click intros to all the drum backing tracks now (Alive, Basket Case and Ever Fallen) - if you want a copy in advance let me know via PM with your email addresses.

I would like to join @darthed1981 in conducting a sonic test on what my Matchless can produce when cranked (I am unable to do this at home)

If its anything like the Lightning 15 from the Leicester Jam... awesomeness is the best description. It certinaly flattered my playing.

On the subject of which...


I'm struggling to sing Champagne Supernova and play the verse rhythm. On the record there are at least three guitars (Bonehead, Noel and Weller) so I'd really welcome someone else coming in on the verse. The riffs and the chorus is no problem... and I can do 'bits' of the verse and sing but one or the other suffers...

Any assistance would be welcomed. :-)

TTony

I can strum along @impmann - if you're asking for help with the verse rhythm rather than the singing?

I can certainly play the rhythm parts (well, probably badly, but its Oasis) and happy to join in some singing.  As you say the song usually has at least three guitar parts, in the latter part of the solo these are overdubbed like mad as well.

Lots of solo to play as well, depending on who wants to play solos!

I can summon up just enough "twang" to sound 'Gallagher-ish".

To be honest I'll be so short on practice I'll be pleased if I don't get equipment thrown at me for not making more time for it.
If I can help out in any way it's really only through redemption and self-preservation.

Would anyone notice if I just played random crap for basslines?
