Good weekend at Buxton with the electric mob.....

Here's a pic of me with the S'notacaster playing a bit of Clapton..:-)

http://no66y.designxp.co.uk/buxton/

And another one - don't know the name of the guy on the right with the
very tasty Telecaster but he did Hendrix's version of 'Killing Floor'
a bit later on which made me want to cut my left hand off..

Don't know who I was grinning at - a heckler probably:

The hat's a wreck - cost me �5 in a garden centre in Brittany - blew
off my head at a wedding earlier in the summer and the peak is torn to
shreds - now I have to go all the way back to France to get another
cheap hat - bummer..:-)

There will be soundfiles going up soon from the Buxton meeting - I'll
post the links when they're up. Some of the playing is very hot.

Mine, of course, is just me being my sloppy self...

Pete, did you see Fiona while you were there?

What Pub is that; I don't recognize it? Looks like a fun and loud time.

So, how come you never looked that dressy at Hargate? :-)

You don't have to go to France, you can come to Australia.

I have one just like it.

Yup, I spent the weekend at Fi's - she's in good shape. Kept telling
me to shut up because she wanted to watch something on the telly. This
is Fi-speak for "Shut up, I want to talk at you for five minutes and I
really don't care what's on the telly."

We seem to get on well - I think she likes having an irascible old
bastard around the house for a couple of days (any longer than that
and I'd prolly wake up in a pool of blood - or not...)

The Venue is the Eagle pub on the Market Square. I'll dig up the URL
for someone's pictures (I think No66by posted up about 70 shots
somewhere). Couple of nice ones of the town centre and a very odd
picture which looks as though someone has set up a drum kit in the
front window of the chippy across the road and then taken a picture of
the pub through the kit - you'll have to see it. Most of the pictures
though are of people I met very briefly so I can't name them.

There's someone doing a not-bad rendition of Procul Harum's 'Sylvia'
here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pzHaSJ7mvLw

It's weird - I'm sure the original was played on a Les Paul but the
guy playing gets the same tone from a Strat - full treble, I guess.

More in a mo.

There may be more in a couple of days. If you root around on Youtube

that angle anyway!

I'm waiting for someone to put up the 26 minute long 'Manglement Jam'
from the end of the evening. Just about every guitarist in the room
with any chops at all got called up to take a few bars, and poor
Caitlin (on drums - who is so skinny I could practically stretch my
fingers right round her waist and they'd meet in the middle) had to
sit there and bash out one 12 bar after another - an heroic effort!

LOL! Glad she's doing well. I know Fi-speak well. :-)

Man, I thought Chris and I had visited every pub in Buxton. Must have
quit too early to make it to the Eagle.

We have seen electrics at Hargate before - John Etheridge did a talk
on heow he ended up with his this year, and supported Gillie Nicholls
playing one - but he was very discreet with it..:-)

I took the S'notacaster with me when it was new, but Nigel Tucker's
son absconded with it for the weekend so no-one else saw it.

But Me and Pete want to do an amplified tribute to you, thus :

Severus, Severus, speak so slightly
Severus, down on your bended knee
Taste the whip, in love not given lightly
Taste the whip, now plead for me

Can anyone play screeeching staccato amplified electric violin ??

Hi Pete,

Many thanks for your kind comments! It was actually me doing Killing
Floor (that's Nick in the pic, fine axe-wielder that he is), there's a
vid here:
