The blue sky is one of those pieces of kit I’ve nearly bought on numerous occasions. Fortunately a rather unusual degree of self discipline kicked in ...

And I quite like the AER reverb as well!

I seem to remember you’d bought it before I had actually arrived! It did sound lovely - Francis is particularly good at the Gibson type sound!

I wandered into one of these one night in Ullapool. Best night I’d had in years.

Andy’s was a wonderful shop but he kept going bust! In the end he just sold up. The cafe was great and for a long time the diminutive 12 bar blues club was my favourite haunt. Some geezer called Bert Jansch was the resident for a while.

Compression is a powerful tool - I’ve created a video on the concept in the Home Recording sub forum on Home Recording.
Used live it needs to be a subtle tool. Like all pedals you need to use them a bit to understand how they can really help.

I like the Sennheisers but some have a flatter signal than other - both are better at some things than the other one. See if you can find a dealer who will let you audition them.

That was some trip and a fascinating documentary. Thanks again Dave.

It they are in decent cases you should be OK. I stored a Martin case in the cellar for a long time 9no guitar inside). The case is fine but it looks a bit manky now!

I also saw them solo and also playing with others. But never together. Of course, Riverman and I were amongst those who saw John’s last ever gig.

I'm very confused about this. Am I right in thinking, that anyone 'outside' the EU won't be affected, and as such, after brexit it won't matter to us ? You are right. This is just about Europe br maybe not in the way we think. This issue has been a concern for media creators and the creative industries for a while. The British government has had consultations on it, select committees have taken evidence on the issue. The U.K. government note. Similar consultations have happened all over Europe and the decision - quite sensibly in my view - has been taken to deal with this at a European level. Of course, Google haven’t engaged, haven’t had open consultations, published green papers or committed themselves to transparent decision making. Anyone concerned about U.K. sovereignty should take a moment to consider Google’s internal policies !
