jammin` jamboree

Evening Strumpets,

The Alice Charmers are playing their second gig on the 31st of this month at Doc Browns in sunny Middlesbrough, so we met up for the first of a couple of "run through of setlist" sessions last night. We finished that in (worryingly) about fifteen minutes, with a repeat lasting (a much more appropriate) 27 minutes (with a couple of other songs included). Which meant we had a couple of hours to mess about in the room.

Carl spent about half an hour trying to get reverb from an amp which was cattle trucked and a further forty minutes (I may be exaggerating) getting a sound from another amp using my guitar which is equally cattle trucked. But it was worth it, because the sound he got was, in my opinion, tremendous.

Here`s an example which shows what I mean (it would have shown more if I hadn`t brought the wrong lead for the Camcorder and the battery hadn`t run out.)



Hopefully see you at Doc Browns,

Till the next one learn something new.

Mark.
