In case you've all missed this, I also took some pics of the show and gave my personal review on the Ernie Ball Music Man stand from Strings and Things.

I just can't understand what;s going on with photobucket - I've managed to upload some photos - now the upload format is different and I'm getting errors????

Anyways here's a few more
I asked a young (very good) bass player what he thought of the Big AL - he said he didn't fancy it. I asked him if he would like to try it, so I unlocked it from the wall and plugged it into a headphone amp. he loved the feel of it. His uncle (also a bass player) had a camera and I asked him to take a photo of his nephew. When the lad saw the photo he changed his mind and liked the look of it. His Uncle also tried it and he loved it too!!






Just before the rush!!


The Sterling Range




One of my jobs was to put up all the posters


I'll post more tomorrow - p bucket permitting!!

One more post before I go to bed

I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity of working for the gang and I would like to thank the guys at S & T for making it happen.

I had an e mail in work from the Devil thanking me for my help too!

It seems strange getting back to "civvies".

Great stuff Sir Spud - thanks for posting all of that
Commendations, certificates and the coveted Ancient Cross of Exceptional Service is on its way.

P.S. - would you happen to have a cell phone or other photographic image of the school girl playing the AL. Following up on initial intelligence, the people I've spoken to would just like some visual confirmation before "finalizing" our discussions

Spud I think you just found your new line of work

[azazael]

Why not try Imageshack instead of photobucket?
Granted it does not add it to the album if you had an account but at least it would get it online!

[threeminutesboy]

Amazing Spud, glad you could make it

[lukather101]

Glad to hear you had a great time spud, I got the feeling you were really looking forward to it when I met you, bet you were a great asset to have on the stand.
Just got your message, I’ll give you a buzz tomorrow.

[Spudmurphy]

Andy man - you were a gas at the whole event especially at the evening cocktail sessions

If only people knew the "full story" they would realise how much of a great guy you are.

I will get in touch.
