One for the cover versions thread. There would have been more dancing, but that was being frowned on in the front rows of the balcony.

They did a live session for Marc Riley on Monday - available on iplayer and well worth a listen:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001yj64
They even had a support act - an avant garde trio called Secluded Bronte. Totally bonkers, utterly wonderful. I don't know where to begin describing them so just watch this video on youtube: https://youtu.be/-nzd5m7ZAvA?si=d0wXTV_TOcJOEh7T
Jane Weaver on Thursday just gone at Scala. Also superb. Good mix of stuff from her excellent new album and old favourites. Again, a really tight band and she seemed to be on top form, really into it. Support were Adwaith and Halo Maud, both also very good. Jane Weaver was also in session for Riley & Coe recently, still available here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001xwfz
Seeing Fat White Family again in June at the Troxy. That is going to be truly awesome.

« Last post by Ham on Yesterday at 10:57:50 pm »Ah yes, you'll be talking about the sensible option of shimming the saddle, and there I was thinking about shimming fret zero...
I would have thought it would need 1-2mm at the saddle, though.
I dun measured the clearance of 6th, string to fretboard: sub 0.5mm at fret 1 and 3mm @ 14
!st is 0 at fret 1 and 2.5mm @ 14
string to body: 6th 9.5 @ 14, 10 at the saddle
1st - 9 @ 14, 10 at the saddle
Suggests I need to raise the saddlepossiby by 0.5 more on 1st side, then tighten the truss rod as appropriate, if needed?

« Last post by citoyen on Yesterday at 10:49:40 pm »We started watching series 2 of Blue Lights. It's good but too much character stuff, not enough plot. And by "character stuff", I mean they all appear to be shagging each other now. How dull.
Also, I've seen this story before. It's...
